You can only appreciate just how big the yard is by drone. Couldn’t help noticing the amount of dereliction beside the yard. Wondered what that’s about. Great video. Will subscribe. Mick🇬🇧
The drone footage is excellent and the mike is great also. That said the constant roaming thru the yard are a like also. An empty centerbeam and boxcar trying to shove a long cut uphill something had to give.
This is my first time watching and I like what I see, using a drone makes a lot of difference you get a way better view. After seeing the great work your doing I've also subscribed to your channel.
I was wondering if one of those trailer cranes would be strong enough to pick up one end of a railcar and move it back onto the track seeing as how they are both roughly in the same area and it looks like it might be easy enough to get one over to the derailment .
Catching a train accident on video is extremely rare. 99% of train videos about accidents are the aftermath and cleanup. I hope I never see an accident as it happens unless no one is hurt. So I try to phrase my titles accurately. I hate click bait. Derailment implies past tense. All of my derailment videos are after it happens. I have only ever caught unexpected events as they happened twice. One was when a coupler broke and the train separated at track speed. And the other a case of extreme wheel slip.
I would guess the main issue here is they don’t actually use the yard as a hump anymore pushing a whole train over the hump puts all kinds of stress on the cars.
Is Norfolk Southern (NS) Railroad 🤪 the Common Denominator ? 🤪👎 They do many things Differently than Most Other Class I’s but Don’t Learn from Mistakes.👎
Train derailments happen all the time. Pushing cars through switches, pulling light weight cars through sharp curves. It's no more common than a flat tire.
Thanks for your feedback. To make you happy, from now on none of my videos will have titles in them. I have no control over how long the text stays on the screen. iMovie controls that. If you are unhappy you could call Tim Cook at Apple and complain to him. Or you could just tap the pause button perhaps? Or maybe read the title in the RU-vid app?
