Operating SLUGS Down Steep Hills with Tiny Engines and Nuclear Waste! (Derail Valley Noob vs Pro) 

Check out Hyce's vid and sync them up to see both perspectives simultaneously! A bit of a longer race but we essentially just turned it into a podcast like old times. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zw2_oxqnsTM.html

As a switchman for one of the Class 1 railroads in Canada, watching how Kan moved the slug to the front hurt my soul lol. Still Congrats on the win Kan can't wait for you to get the steam win!!!!

The hard hat isn't to see where the guy was standing when he got squished to paste. It is to protect the guy's head from any pins, nuts, bolts, or tools which may have been left unsecured in the rigging. It is like the helmet on a motorcycle. It won't keep you alive from a catastrophic collision, but it will keep a minor incident from making you a vegetable.

Already watched Hyce's side of things. It would be nice if you could synchronize the release times, so both are released at the same time and we could watch both videos at the same time from minute 1.

Watching Kan switch in slow motion, I was going "why is he giving himself such a massive time handicap?!" (Knowing how fast Hyce operates)

42:00 ish - A tie point for a boat that is located on a dock is called a cleat, (boats can have their own cleats too). The main style I have seen look like a capital T with a second vertical support.

Best line ever! "I don't trust the DE2 to pull me car out of the ditch."

Instead of a heavy load for the steam engines, you should do a light load so that it becomes much easier to hit spicy speeds if you're not careful.

I love the "Engineer's Podcast". And I know that's probably a real thing, but yes I'm referring to Kan and Hyce talking for an hour ❤

Congrats Kan!! Just a thought tho, you should have stopped at the switch. Then you could have uncoupled the slug on the track to the garage. Then pulled your Tran forward and backed your cars into the harbor track far enough to clear. Then go back, get your slug then back into your cars and your ready to go. Just a thought lol.Anyway, congrats on the win. Look forward to future uploads.

Loving these races. As an idea, start from the coal mine with whatever train you want behind( the heavier the better in my opinion) to the furthest point on the map from there, either a job or a custom setup. The catch is you have to flip a coin before the race, one person has the S282 and the other has the de6( I think that is what it is called, the big diesel). I don't know if one is better than the other but it could be interesting. If the S282 if more powerful than the diesel you can also use the slug.

Kan, on Diesel Electric locomotives and probably including slugs the hatch for sand is not on top but on the side/end of the locomotives

I have a few factory stories as well. I work in injection molding and we use to make the wheels and fenders for Segways. The mold was so big we would have to hang it in halves because it will be too heavy for a 3 ton crane if it was together. That crane had no breaks at all. If you stop moving it, no matter how slow you were going the momentum of the mold moving would cause it to coast farther and if you try to line up the locating ring on the front platen, the crane will just get pushed back. When you lay the mold halves down on their skids, you'll get an idea what the break men went though back in link and pin days. You'll push it to get the mass pass center so it could lay down but once it goes you have to make sure you get your hands out of the way fast enough. When the shift before me tied pulling or hanging the mold, they accidently went too fast and the crane coasted to the stops which turned the mold into a wrecking ball (or wrecking brick.) I also once seen liquid fire drip out the end of a nozzle as the barrel was heating up. Also seen some insane aftermaths from hydraulic leaks. Fun times. Fun time. 🤣🤣

Congrats on the win Kan. Ropes get tied to cleats on boat docks.

....i got 18 minutes into this video before realizing i was watching kan's pov and not hyce's. this whole time i thought hyce was just being devious and lying about what he was doing lmao

If you didn't realize it already, you need to use the train brake with the slug. Hyce said the independent *should* actuate the brakes on the slug, but it doesn't in the game.

Congratulations on the victory kAN, well deserved for your superior tactics this time! The next challenge is the steam win, but you'll need to do your training in the same conditions as the race itself with some kind of similar pressure.

Nice win, although I would have driven straight into the harbor, and just hooked the DE2 into the back of the consist, then driving out, prolly even not turning the DE2 around and driving out "backwards", to reduce the switching operations. But a win is a win. Well done

Re sync last episode: I started both videos synced up at the start before the 3-2-1 countdown and it was fine for a bit, but then I noticed you cut a bit between the start of the video and the countdown, so I had to resync it. That's probably what the comments were referring to.

So next race Hyce has to bottle the air, on his train and can only use hand breaks or the locomotive independent break

kan has finally found his brick in this game

great job on the win! Now do it while double heading steam engines.

He said PRO-cess haha that's funny. Love these races tho!!! I miss the multiplayer RRO vids

The combination of the amps and voltage is deadly, not just the number of amps

Next challenge: long haul mission using TWO steamy bois!!! Let’s goo! 🚂🚂

I can't believe kAN won a race against Hyce, you are ready to race steam again, just remember that cutoff is king and you'll be good!

8:30: I think I'd be able to save a LOT of time by moving the train differently around the switch and placing the slug behind the DE2

42:06 The things you’re thinking of is a bollard. (although if there’s two right next to each other they’re called bitts.)

Why did he back up all the way into the Harbor and not just use the first switch to put the slug on the front/behind the DE-2?

I bet we all had a mild anyeurism seeing how Kan switched the slug

god watching kan switch on this one was so painful. just detach the slug, then go forward, change the switch, back up, change the switch, go forward, couple, go. he did it so roundabout and slowly. \*spoilers*\ im surprised he won

kAN would probably have won much more quickly if he’d switched more efficiently. Dropping the slug on the main line, just before that switch into the yard, then dropping the rest of the train in the yard lead & reassembling would have cut a couple minutes of time off without requiring more movements

Nice win Kan , you might have gotten some explosions had you uncoupled the cars ...

Interesting to learn about kan's career for a change!

I was rooting for you the whole time Kan I knew one of these days you'll beat him lol

Well done. Your switching was a bit relaxed for a race and that almost made Hyce be able to catch up. Just watch once how he switches. Full send, speed and lots of brake. Sure dutch drop is cool if it works but it almost never does. So don't copy that but the speed. Grats on win. One day it will happen with steam too.

For the first time in this series this episode doesn’t Smell Like KANosha

27:20 In ultimate edition they will obey Newtons third law. As a result, the photons emitted by the headlights will slow you down. 🤣

Can you ask hyce if there was ever a mechanically activated steam injector? Like a float in the boiler that as the water level drops would automatically open the valve to add more water. Especially as a safety mechanism to stop the level from going too low.

i think dudeman might be talking about the discord audio. the discord transmition lag is different between you two

Glorious victory!

Was nice to see you win. He needs to quit assuming that engine is enough.

i wonder how much benefit to the slug would be adding another de2?

Kan with the eminem lose yourself references

39:26 fun fact, the international space station weighs 990,000lbs. DAYUM

Cheers on the victory m8 ;)

You know what probably happened, was something to do with Veriable Frame Rate versus non-variable frame rate, and some editing software might not deal with VBR properly (like Adobe Premiere Pro CS6)./

Alternate title: "My dream comes true and I get to drive a brick in Derail Valley -- Brick Gang FTW!"

I just realised how much I missed this. 😊

Also on Steam locomotives you need water all the way over the top of the firebox other wise the fire box can warp and possibly need to be replaced

Neither Amps, not Volt kill. Watts kill, aslong the voltage can manage to make you conduct good enough, and there is enough Amps to actually cook you. Its both.

Isn't the transport containers for nuclear waste basically indestructible? Do they actually explode in game?

Congrats on the win 🏆 .

First time ive had to use kans pov for my playlist because hyce failed

Why not just drop the slug on a siding, then go past it and drop the cars, then go back with just the locomotive to grab the slug and hook it up to the train cars?

Ayyyyyy! Congratulations!

do another railroads online series with hyce in the new map

Personally I would have got to the first switch dropped the slug with brake on before the switch. move forward through the switch then switch it go back through the switch and drop the rest of the train there go forward through the switch then switch it back to grab the slug go through and switch it back to pick up the rest of the train. Would have been back and forth a couple times through a switch but would be faster and more efficient than running around to get the slug and then running back around to pick up the train. And the slug would be behind the de2 so have a better view to see signs and stuff on the track. Obviously hindsight is 20/20 and I wouldn't be that fast doing it if I were racing and trying to rush through it

Where's the kaboom. There was supposed to be an earth shattering kaboom!?

Kan, why do you think locomotives actually have breaks?

First time watching kAN's Stream and Hyce keeps binning ist 😁😒

its hard to keep them in sync because of ads

It takes anywhere from .01-.04 amps to kill you.

I know I've maxed out the DE2 (70 kph) with the slug

it was the delay via disocrd

Ive delt with huge welding robots

.1 to .2 amps depending on weight / size to kill a person

Hi

Electrical is the more resistance the less volts the less resistance the more volts amps stay the same
