Extremely Heavy Train Attacks The Hill Out Of The Ohio River Valley! 4 Locomotives and 16,500 tons. Listen to the DPUs and Manned Helper working hard up the long, steep, curvy hill! Includes a Steel Coils Train With DPU & a Heavy Mixed Freight With Manned Helper Locomotive! We also see an empty train ease down the hill and we see the manned helper locomotive returning light down the hill. These Norfolk Southern trains are in Crescent Springs, Kentucky on the NS Rat Hole Line. We see several different angles including a train under the pedestrian bridge over the main line.
The first train is a southbound loaded steel coils train. This train has a DPU that stays with it across Kentucky. It runs just about every day about this time.
Then we see a big train dropping down the hill into Ludlow, Kentucky along the Ohio River on its way to Gest street Yard in Cincinnati.
Next I go about a mile south to the free book store and drop off a train magazine. While there a heavy train with Union Pacific locomotives and a pusher sand the rails as they head southbound. The locomotive will cut off between Erlanger and Elsmere to return down the hill for the next train.
The 4th train is the one you came for! This is a huge train and too long for me to count the cars son! Listen to how hard the locomotives are working. This train had to wait at the bottom of the hill for the previous train. The previous train had a hand break partially stuck on about the 5th car from the rear. They stopped at Erlanger and then proceeded. This 4th train had a leading locomotive, 2 DPU locomotives and one Union Pacific manned helper on the rear. I didn't know that it was manned until on my way home I heard them on the scanner ( 160.950 ) returning back down the hill. I heard the conductor tell the dispatcher that they had 16.5 and they didn't want to have to stop on the hill. Someone count the cars and let me know how many are on this train. It took close to ten minutes to pass me.
The final movement that we see is the Norfolk Southern helper locomotive returning down the hill for the next train. I had someone recognise me while they waited for that move. Shout out to you! Thanks for watching my videos!
