I remember a cold Sunday morning in January 2022, sitting in my truck smoking weed at the pump n pantry truck stop in central city, watching my crypto balance plummet and watching the back end of the DPUs as they trail on up the tracks.
@@rustyshackleford6637 Sorry about that. Sounds like a bad associated memory. It's already begun to feel like 2021 with market elation at ATH and everyone just dumping money into the market and cryto without fear.
Hi, thank you for filming, narrating and posting. I very much enjoyed the Railways, Trains, snippets of History and seeing the Townships, along the route.
Can’t get enough of these beautiful, inspiring videos! The beautiful, wonderful country views are just totally stunning! It’s hard to put into words how much you have made this world of railroading in layman’s terms! Love the UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD (UP)!
9:55 - so significant memory, especially when u watch it from Ukraine!) thanks for sharing and creating this videos - this a piece of history and storytelling as well 😉
Another excellent video! I did a railfan trip from Boone, Iowa to North Platte, NE for the first time in 1980. Lots of SD40-2s and TOFC trains on CNW and UP back then. Thank you!
@@EricPowell_Indy Railroad technology is an on going thing that involves two man crews down from 5 man crews in the days of steam. Also long trains, some up to three miles long, means two man crews. Staff and crew management together with longer fewer trains means fewer crews and is also part of this new technology.
That “rare” westbound manifest on the BNSF flyover was a H KCKLAU (Kansas City (Argentine)/Laurel, MT, works Lincoln. Eastbound manifests are H PASKCK (Pasco, WA-KC) and work Spokane, Laurel and Lincoln. These tracks also see unit grain trains to /from PNW ports and Midwest grain terminals in Iowa and Illinois - all in addition to the numerous coal trains.
All of your videos are very impressive! Great videography, commentary is so good, history lessons are superb and a crazy amount of Uncle Pete's railroad. A question from the Sidney sub videos: Point of Rocks- is it located on Federal,, State, County, Native or private land? The geology is very interesting. If I ever make it to Nebraska I would like to spend time there knocking on the rocks with my geologist hammer just to see what is inside the rocks. I am thinking fossils and much more. Sorry about the smoke from here in Canada. Hopefully this summer will be quiet on the wildfire situation.
Thanks for your kind words. Point of Rocks is on private land. The owners reside in nearby Potter. In small towns like that everybody knows everybody so inquiries could be made.
This was excellent to watch , really enjoyed all tidbits of history n these small sleepy towns . I've never been to Nebraska but after watching the drone video shots you get a good idea what the state looks like , this is defo be on my list of places to visit . These programs get better and better keep them coming .😊
Just discovered your videos tonight and love the insights, commentary, detail, and fantastic footage. I have mapped all of Nebraska RR in Google Earth and was able to insert your link to my placemarks making it far better. Carry on this good work!
Also, excellent work capturing all of the great sounds, be they nature or myriad mechanical sounds from the trains, not over-narrating and letting it roll - well done.
Have you heard the news from the Union Pacific yet for this year with 4014 and get this it will be going through the Feather River Canyon on its way to Roseville and then go over Donner Pass to head to Ogden.
In Grand Island before the flyover, there were railroad crossings at Capital Ave, 18th Street, 10th Street, 7th Street, 5th Street, 4th Street (with Cantilever style crossing on 4th Street), the UP Diamond, and 3rd Street.
I used to live near Kearny avenue in Springfield, Missouri. I was so close to the train tracks that when the trains rolled past my house I would have to keep my Knick knacks from falling. I couldn’t move anywhere in that town without losing sleep from all the rail traffic
So I think I know what happened with that wind situation. Often when a storm dissipates it can "collapse" which can create a really strong outflow boundary and create really strong winds as a storm looks to be dying. That's a really wild situation you got caught up in!
Today we go to one of my favorite cameras on the Virtual Railfan website Kearney Sub. Three tracks three subdivisions all of them begin at Bailey Yard. East of Gibbons the rails split into the Fremont Sub, the Grand Island Sub, and the Marysville Sub. The Grand Island Sub enters Council Bluff from the south where it ties into the Falls City Sub which connects to Marysville Sub at Marysville. The Fremont Sub is the original UP mainline it goes through Columbus, Blair, Fremont, and Valley Junction before terminating at Council Bluff Yard in Omaha. The line continues east on CNW main becoming the Boone Sub and the Clinton and Geneva Sub before terminating at Proviso Yard in Chicago.
I agree. Not only that. Do some other videos in KS. BNSF's Superior and Emporia subs have some interesting towns and curves to take in. The short lines would sadly bore you as they aren't very fast unless you get closer to Wichita.
What's funny is the railroad thinks they are saving money by building those "super" trains. But what corporate didn't consider is that the west bound main is the only single track long enough to hold a train that long.
When UP ran the Big Boy, could someone picked out a nicer bunch of hopper for braking assist duty ???? Could have used nice clean new cars, but no, some old rusty buckets, really?

Nice intro ❤
I like the under over bridges for Union Pacific and bnsf
I accidentally discovered the Kearney Sub driving across the country in 2009. It was a mind blowing experience to see a train every 10 minutes.
Now you get one every 2 hours most of the time atleast for the double track lol

Excellent! Union Pacific Sidney and Kearney Subdivision are both wonderful
I remember driving west on U. S. 30 in Nebraska. Between Gibbon Jct. and North Platte, I counted 84 trains in two hours.

Absolutely the best in rail......kudos to Aaron Bentsen and crew:)

great video sir ❤❤😍😍
Man, I didn't realize how many double coal trains they run out there
Anything to lay off crews.

TRAINS IN NEBRASKA, IS VERY WONDERFUL !
Great video’s!! 🚀🚀
Great ending , thank you!
Keep up the awesome videos keep going east
Great coverage Aaron! I was the conductor on the Nebraska Central walking across and hopping on the 8132 in one of the last scenes!
That's awesome! Glad you guys were there. It was pretty slow on the UP and I waited quite a while to get the final shot.

The last shot of the BNSF crossing ovr the UP was worth the entire vid

I am watching from Australia in Queensland. Always great photography and excellent commentary on your videos. Love watching and thank you.
Thank you very much!
The drone footage is super nice.
Good stuff!

Oh heck yeah the Kearny
Fantastic video!
Awesome and amazing seeing this going through Nebraska.

I’m loving this UP video!
I hauled a lot of base for that 3 line going through Gothenburg to Cozad in the early 2000s
Absolutely superb video!
Thank You
I was wondering if you are out filming have any of you seen any of the locomotives from the movie Unstoppable

Here in somerset ky we have alot of trains especially after they installed a double main to cut down the bottle necking
Старые поезда,но всё таки приятно посмотреть на поезда которые ездят в других странах

Why do you see a lot of old GM SD40-2 and GP locomotives and we don't see GE C30-7?
Train horns help me sleep at night
Waow Amazing mister
Where are these trains going the fastest along this route?
Just curious have u recorded any in Kansas yet
You should make a video documentary of the BNSF Ottomwa subdivision because it's one of the BNSF's busiest subdivisions
Are you gonna do the Columbus, Omaha, and Blair Subdivisions
The question didn't get added
Question mark
I would also love to see an Omaha sub video.
Fascinating video. I'm from the UK so I can tell you that "Greenwich" is actually pronounced "gren-ich"
Thank you for the correction.
TOP.
Super!🚂🚂
I like train videos on TH-cam 👍
I don't think we have one train an hour in Columbus anymore. When we moved here ten years ago, we had two or three trains an hour.
Will you uploading the full video of The Return of the Big Boy U.P. 4014 & 844 The Great Race To Ogden
New camera technology cannot keep up with 100 year old train technology of 90 mph.
Wow
Sweet Video! Who does the narration?
Do Union Pacific's Marysville Subdivision , 4/19/2024
I agree. Not only that. Do some other videos in KS. BNSF's Superior and Emporia subs have some interesting towns and curves to take in. The short lines would sadly bore you as they aren't very fast unless you get closer to Wichita.
I thought BNSF was bigger than Union Pacific in size? Am I wrong?
UP IS #1 BNSF#2 &CSX#3 by track miles
@@BrucePerkins-mc3hp Thanks for the info! 👍
Did u do the track from grand island to Blair
So how does a fuel is trains
Very carefully.
What's funny is the railroad thinks they are saving money by building those "super" trains. But what corporate didn't consider is that the west bound main is the only single track long enough to hold a train that long.
Simple solution is to lengthen sidings.
When UP ran the Big Boy, could someone picked out a nicer bunch of hopper for braking assist duty ????
Could have used nice clean new cars, but no, some old rusty buckets, really?
Makes the other cars look better in comparison
hay is not safe for livestock if soaking wet in horses may cause collic
All that coal traffic will soon be a thing of the past
Fantastic, thanks for the effort!
