Thanks to my father, I have been involved with trains and railfanning for the last 23 years. We Moved up to Montana in 1995, and now are where most of my videos are recorded. A new thing for me is the including of real life sounds and editing them into model train videos.

0:46 That's a very interesting combo, looks like the local for Harrison (note the heavily graffitied MRL hoppers) and power for another local combined with BNSF power?
By merging with Burlington Northern, the BNSF completely broke the myth of the Warbonnets... and that's a shame. Greeting from La Chaux-de-Fonds in Switzerland
ElectroMotive Diesel (EMD) should include THIS in their sales campaigns, EMD locomotives doing what they do best ... after that crewman's "We can't do that." THIS is why I love railfanning EMD locomotives, they've never had "GIVE UP" as a throttle setting.
SD70ACe clocks the dynomometer at about 4,500 hp. Others like the SD70MAC at the tail end of the train generate about 4,000 hp. I think that lone GE unit up front puts out about 4,400 hp. I suspect (but don't know for sure) that even the 4,000 hp SD70MAC generates more tractive effort than the GE C44-9W. Yeah, I'm biased toward EMD and have been since I was a kid. I'm 69yo now.
Oh, yes, before the super fleet units in the warbonnet paint came, they had units in the Kodachrome paint scheme from the Southern Pacific Santa Fe merger which was denied.
