Rainy RFW Aurora to Chicago express run from Downers Grove. 7/15/22 

Great job.

Wow Typical summer storm. Nice express run. Thanks RR😀

I miss this one and Geneva to Chicago. I moved from Illinois to Tennessee in 2005.

In the late 80s/early 90s, I lived directly across from the Harlem Ave station. Every day, I'd have a front row seat to the "dinky parade" headed up by BN's classic E units!!

hey man your everywhere I hope to catch u filming so I can say hi

I certainly like the head end shots, Tim. Much better than shots out of a side window, Head end shots give us a real feel for the line. Even rear facing shots beat side window shots. I'm not interested in seeing the grass, trees and buildings along a right-of-way.. I want to get the engineer's prospective. I want to see the switches, signals, approaching trains, etc.

A suggestion for you would be to adjust the volumes between your voice and the sound of the trains. We watch and listen to your awesome videos but to listen you and then a train whistle blows and it lifts us out of the room. We try but then when we listen to the trains then we can't hear you. Just a suggestion and thanks for all you do.

I rode the Metra not too long ago, really wish I had got the express though!

I like how Metra appears to have priority. But i think that is because its run by a BNSF crew? That rain just came through Philly.

Lisle has an E at the end.... Lol, but who cares. Love the videos!

January 15th? Well we know your heart is...

What train was this?

I am a bit confused here? According to Metra, this line is back to pre-pandemic schedules, but you say otherwise???

Is that Howard Stern ?

???

One little word of critique, your intro, can you please turn down the volume of the first clip, would not be the first time if it jumpscared me a little bit haha.

Your signal and sign knowledge needs lots of help. YELLOW over YELLOW is NOT "Approach Slow", Nor is RED over FLASHING YELLOW "Limited Approach" under GCOR rules. Those aspects exist mainly on eastern railroads. A RED BOARD does not mark the beginning of a slow order, rather - it marks the Limits of a Stop Order "Form B"... I would suggest you provide yourself with a copy of signal aspects in effect on the railroad you are going to ride over, or enlist the help of a railroad employee.

Wow Typical summer storm. Nice express run. Thanks RR😀
