New Changes To CSX Defect Detectors. 5 Locomotives On Huge CSX Mixed Freight Train With DPU Locomotive In The Middle Followed By CSX Train With More Old Classic Locomotives. Norfolk Southern Trains On CSX Track Included. These trains are in Woodlawn and Glendale, Ohio.
First we take a look at the CSX defect detector in Woodlawn, Ohio. Two trains pass it and we hear the defect detector transmit its signal to the crew on 160.230. There are a couple of new changes. The first change is that the defect detector goes off just as the front of the train passes it. This is fairly new as it used to only go off after the train passed it. Now it does both. The second transmission gives information on defects and gives axle counts. The next change is a newer change that took place this year. The crew on the train acknowledges the message from the defect detector. They transmit over the radio that they have heard the detector activate. The paddles next to the tracks are for dragging equipment and the sensors are for overheating equipment. I have another video that goes into more detail. The two trains that pass the detectors are a tanker train and an auto racks train and both are northbound.
The next train is a northbound local that I almost missed. It came by while I was at the McDonalds drive through in Woodlawn. I was able to catch up to it and then get in front for a good video of it passing through Glendale, Ohio. The remaining trains are in Glendale.
We see a couple of Norfolk Southern trains and several CSX locals. This ex B&O line is directional running. Most of the trains on this line run northbound and most of the trains on the nearby Norfolk Southern line run southbound. They come together in Cincinnati and Hamilton.
The last two trains are the best. I filmed them at the border of Glendale and Woodlawn. The first one is a CSX manifest with a DPU. Check out the first 4 locomotives. We have some classic units. The last train has classic locomotives pulling it also. These trains were only minutes apart. Notice that the trains in Glendale did not use their horns. Glendale is a no train horn zone. I did a series of videos showing the transition to the no train horn zone a few years ago. Glendale is one of my favorite places to watch trains. I estimate 15 to 20 trains every 24 hours including Amtrak. Amtrak Cardinal makes 3 round trips a week running between Chicago and New York City. You can also hear the dispatcher on 160.320 talking to the train crews and 452.9375 might be useful for the EOT.
