The music and the sunrise at the end caught at my heart--and I learned that concrete ties are a thing! I don't think I've ever seen any before--at least not knowing what they were. Thank you--another great one!
Wow! Excellent catching all the trains, especially the Heritage Units, a Darwin Candidate in Elkhart, Indiana, and so much more, @Virtual Railfan, I like them all, thank you very much.
A song that stays with you for a lifetime. "So over the mountains and over the plains Into the Muskage and into the rain Up to St. Lawrence on the way to Gaspé Swingin' our hammers and drawin' our pay..."
Another classic with a great ending what a beautiful sunrise to end with... You will notice I've missed two GBs will try and catch up later... more greetings from another GB!! (Great Britain aka United Kingdom Of ~ ~)
These are two M8 cars (electric multiple units) typically used by Metro-North Railroad on the New Haven Line and the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) for the Shore Line East. The railroad cars are manufactured by Kawasaki. The pantograph for the electric units is in the down position. I am assuming they are being shipped to the east coast.
"This is why you never give up on watching a virtual railfan live camera feed. Even if it takes forever, You might find something very rare. It takes patience." - me, From past experience.
@googlefan11: You are so right, I usually watch the Flagstaff cams daily, but I had guests over far past the #3 arrival and departure, so I'd gone to the feed, with the intention of catching the arrival and departure, so in realtime, I noticed the lights and the gates coming down, and the lights from the locomotive. I could see it approaching, but as I waited it appeared to move very slowly, I began to watch, and I thought must be something wrong with the engine, and was shocked when it stopped altogether, I thought what a spot to breakdown completely, especially when I saw the engineer come around with his spotlight, walking past his lead engine and 2nd engine. I then switched to my other view and saw eventually he was joined by others going back to the otherside again, then coming down out of the 2nd engine with a guy wrapped in that blue blanket. What a priceless surprise that turned out to be. I hadn't considered people actually did something like that. I always thought that when my dad used to tell us kids that he, two of my uncles, and a couple of their friends used to do that, traveling the country that it was just to entertain us. That the security was of the highest levels. Now I've witnessed it live. I feel a bit sorry for the young man and hope he won't be dealt with too harshly. I probably will raise someone's ire saying that, but it's how I feel, so save all your Yada, Yada, Yada, about a crime, stealing etc. I Get It!!
21:20 the sneaky triple meet. Did anyone notice the bottom head of the signal drop from yellow, whence it was near perfectly between the two locomotives? Talk about a window of opportunity!!

LOL, now I get that! We have a lot of viewers that have been around for a while so I figured I use the OZ theme. The original concept of Cuphead was probably from around the time of OZ though. Funny either way.
