We see rocket launches regularly on the Cocoa, Plant City, Folkston, Barstow, & Cajon Pass cams. Rarely do we see astronauts returning home. In the case of the Plant City Segment, SpaceX Crew 6 coming down to splash down outside of Jacksonville FL. Plant City was in the reentry path.
Love occasionally getting lucky and seeing all the shiny new refurbished Power Units coming out of Alliance and passing through OKC to their new recycled lives. Thanks for putting a few on here.
23:50 Not only does Darwin Candidate go between cars of stopped train but THEN DELIBERATELY steps on TOP of every rail of every track he crosses--exactly what you are trained NOT to do (slipping hazard) on a railroad!
I agree the trains keep derailing there, and that they might be just putting the lighter ones in front of the heavier ones which could be causing the derailments. This Gondola car looks like it's been pushed off the tracks.
This actually might not be a problem with the tracks but the trains themselves. Not mechanically but in just the way they are put together. PSR is making trains longer therefore making then much heavier and you can see where this goes wrong. A train going around to tight of a curve with to much weight behind if is going to fall over. And the tracks here were built when the curve radius was only designed for trains around a mile or so. (before PSR)
I love seeing on the videos with meteors crossing the skies. It is just as good as the lightning and, of course, the train actions. Great videos. Robert 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
That was not a meteor caught on the Plant City cam. That was a SpaceX Crew Drsgon capsule bringing astronauts from the ISS back down to the surface. The trajectory was for a splashdown off of Jacksonville.
That parallel meet and pass in Big Sandy was spectacular! With both horns going at the same time in the middle of the night, I doubt anyone slept through that. 😀
At every train meet, I keep waiting and hoping for 2 engines to pull up alongside one another and match speeds. Then have the crews pass something from one to another like "Pass the Grey Poupon, please."
That Missouri Pacific (MP) Gondola is Over 40+ years Old and would be Due to Retire before the End of the Decade. It’s going to be Scrapped a few years earlier. 😬👍🙏
I often watch these at 2x speed for my own amusement. Amtrak, 150 mph through town, no problem. Imagine my sheer delight when the derailment was shown at 6x speed....😂😂😂😂😂
Sounded like the rear axle finally popped out from the truck after it dropped down from the service road grade-crossing, and then pulled apart the air hose (triggering the brakes) as it freely rolled out from underneath the gondola and then under the front of the autorack car. Glad it didn't get to the next switch before stopping, but the should really check the frog of the first switch where it presumably derailed at since this isn't the first time.
Does anyone know what's on the DODX flatcar at 16:57? It's not nuclear material, otherwise there would be a command post caboose attached and no other freight.
It is, indeed, nuclear material. Canisters like that are usually tacked onto the front of a manifest train, the caboose only comes along if it’s a dedicated nuclear waste train
I wish you had a location in ashland,ky where I live that way I can always watch the trains go by without being there. Our old C&O freight depot was turned into a bus station and amtrak station so its right by the tracks for some great shots
UP done a good job on derailment clean up ,saw a huge manifest yesterday in Roanoke with mid helper DPU and two depressed center flat cars and caboose, not the same one on hear, it was headed Westbound towards Shaffers Crossing and Christiansburg VA!🛤🚂
Hi! I'm new to learning about trains. Love these clips! At about 26 minutes into this video, there's focus on a large piece of equipment. I've seen them before. Can someone please tell me what it is? Or where I can find more information. Thank you!
How embarrassing for Jim Vena lol! With Hulcher right there in Fort Worth, TX. They couldn’t just kick that gon out with the side winders and couple the rest of the train back together and carry on. Poor leadership on SVP Brian Barr’s part.
Been wanting to ask you this. How are the people seeing you. Are you actually at all these locations or is it drone footage I'm intrigued to know. This is cool
The tower itself was demolished a few years ago. Camera location is southwest of the I35/30 interchange. Best viewed from Vickery Blvd. That particular area of Ft Worth is NOT family friendly.
