Great video and really helpful. I am thinking of modelling the Bushwick branch when I start on my next layout (though need to finish the current one first!)
it amazes me how americans simply ignore the red-light and an oncoming train 😅😅😅 just like: the warning tone and light is more of a suggestion, rather then a traffic-rule
Welcome to Brooklyn! Here's your tetanus booster, rabies vaccine and index to all the local 24-hour emergency care facilities! I actually model this area of the LIRR in the 60's. I recognized so many places, despite never having visited. The Maspeth Industrial Center, the old Marlyn Warehouse, Allied Extruders (silos gone now), Greenpoint Ave bridge, etc. You'd be surprised how much hasn't changed in 50 years.
Great video. Good to show all of those self-righteous truckers who drone on and on about "dElIvErInG tO tHe dOoR". Trains do it too, and they've been doing it for 150 years.
A few questions. I live along the CSX Philly sub and those green USWX cars with green containers come through every day on a variety of trains. Is that USWX facility in Brooklyn? I was told that some of those green trash containers are loaded on barges and moved to NJ and then loaded back on railcars to head south for disposal. Finally, why are there USWX engines and are they provided to help switch their facilities? Great video. Thanks.
Hi Bruce, the green trash comes from a couple different places in New York, one being there in Maspeth NYC, the other being upstate along the mohawk subdivision between Rochester and Syracuse. The cars are picked up by CSX in the Bronx or upstate and assembled into road trains at Selkirk yard. I do believe the green waste bins bend up in mid Virginia and South Carolina.
Woah, I passed through that area all the time and never saw a sign of a train coming. How do you get info a freight train is coming? is it using a radio or something?
It's hard for me to decide. Most tagging/graffiti is ugly but on occasion it looks nice. I however think it's a crime to do it on another person's property. I don't really care as much when it's on abandoned buildings.
Love how the two pigeons just ignore the train @7:05
Really cool. Some of the most urban railfanning I've ever seen.
Thanks for watching, seeing freight trains in New York City is definitely very cool!
Something about the green livery of the NYAR just gives it some kind of vibe.

Awesome man! You can always reach out through Instagram or email for more informative photos.
Really enjoyed this video of local freight traffic. Thank you.
One of those Geep 38s has an interesting stack arrangement: 1 stack fore, and 2 stacks aft of the DB fan.
Very interesting inner city railroading! Alot of tight spots but cool to see!
Love it, very interesting video!👍
I believe there is a cabride of this train..under Waste management tour uswx 400 cabride..cool video!
I used to pass through there everyday back in the days going to my parents house up flushing ave 😊
A great video of railroading in Bushwick/Lower Montauk branches in different weather conditions and seasons!
Awesome video. I subscribed your channel by watching the video.

One of the few parts of the city that still feels genuine.
great vid. any idea what they're hauling?
Thanks! These guys usually haul anything from stone, beer, garbage and municipal industrial waste (dry-wall, building materials, etc.)
Great railfanning man! Where did you catch these engines doing yard work?
Great video. Good to show all of those self-righteous truckers who drone on and on about "dElIvErInG tO tHe dOoR". Trains do it too, and they've been doing it for 150 years.

Great video. I just hate all that dam graffiti. It’s everywhere.
Title is misspelled. It's "Montauk" , not "Mauntuk". From a native Long Islander.
@@paulgiarmo3628 Your right! Must've been an autocorrect issue, thanks for bringing it up!
Excellent video my friends 😊awesome 😮 fantatic locomotive 😮 Like 👍🏻 greetings 👋🏻 from Argentina 🇦🇷 suscribete
When was this recorded?
@@rickchapman9232 These were mostly shot on the weekends. The months and years are in the description.
Wow, terrible to see how awful the graffiti is on the building, bridges, and infrastructure!
All that tagging and graffiti is just disgusting. Such low class people!!!!
@@scotabot7826 Well as it much as it looks bad, I think it adds character and sound to New York City.

Cry more Scot
That city is a dump with garbage in the streets and graffiti on every wall.
