❤ video was awesome you keep up the good work I gave a heart because you're a man after my own heart doing these videos keep up the good work you stay safe talk to you soon
Because of your prior video taken at Cassandra, I made a stop there. Thank you! Really enjoyed it. Talked about you with other rail fans that were there at the time. 😊
A couple of extra cool shots there JT. Loved the long distance approach of the Amtrak train and the lights on the rails of the train coming out of the tunnel. Thanks.
Another great video. You could put a new battery in the key fob. Many take a CR2032 Coin cell. I just did both of my fobs after getting a low fob battery warning. It comes apart real easy. My Toyota also has a feature that if the battery in the fob is dead and the car will not start, hold the fob with the insigna on the fob touching the start button and press to start. It retains enough charge to start that way maybe one time so you can get home. Something to try if you have the problem again.
I think that smoky loco needs maintenance order for some tuning. Wasn't pulling hard enough to be put on the smoke show! Great video as always JT! 🚂🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃💯👍🇺🇸
JT in the rugged mountains that have hosted rail activity for over a century and a half. In the 1950s with much smaller cars and trailers the intermodall world really started to take off. The formation of Trailer Train.(now TTX) and the marketing of PRR Truc-Train and N&W which todays NS carries on the tradition. The down on views even show the differences on the evolution of the well car as well as the wide variety of containers. Alas it also showed the impending end of an era with the now closed Yellow Freight Systems trailers Rolling Along on spine cars. The cycle never ends it just keeps changing with the times
Great video! Sometimes the owners manual will tell you where you can put or hold the key to start the car if the fob battery is dead. Sometimes it's somewhere on the dash or even inside the glove compartment. Either way, manual would probably say.
A Coal train and an Amtrak train both in one video and the awesome pets are always great to see as well as the slide show recaps of trains,Thank You. 🤠🐶🐱👍 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨
@@JawTooth I'm a train fan and I really like watching them not just here in Oklahoma but around the country as well Thank You Jaw Tooth.🤠👋🇺🇲 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨
Thank you for another video with trains at Cassandra and Gallitzin, Pennsylvania on 25 June 2023 from your trip of Pennsylvania. I enjoyed watching the trains at these two locations.
Great shot of the amtrak going round the curve JT, & 3N/S Engines on that intermodel, made my day, beautiful place for watching the trains.The tunnel was AWESOME horn salute to you as well, very friendly at N/S! That tunnel shot reminds me of watching the trains with my Aunty as a kid, she had a train tunnel across the street where she lived, fab memories JT. Have a great weekend if you still in PA. ❤😊
Really enjoyed the places you shot at today, they were kind of hard to get to it looks like.Good work going out of your way to record them. thank you, hope the car does not give you anymore trouble. good luck.
Key fob w/ push button start .. a solution to a problem we never had! NS Iron Horse. We hear lots of talk about the mountains out west .. the Appalachians are a bear for rail too.
I grew up watching trains in that spot and the others around Horseshoe Curve area. I know you know this, but those lone locomotives are helpers that do nothing but serve as pusher duty up and down the Curve area. And special thanks for pronouncing Gallitzin right! :)
Great location JT, neat action. Glad I wasnt following the coal empties through the tunnel, lol, 🤣🤣. Wondered if the light engines had been on helper duty ? 🇬🇧
I know that on a Toyota, if the battery is dead in the keyfob, lay the fob next to the start switch on the dash, and the car will sense it's presence and will start.
Hey jaw tooth cool trains. It's neat watching trains going through tunnels. Why does some hopper cars have bars across their tops.?. Have a great railroad day 🙋♀️
i like power moves myself. The two NS locomotives were just cruising. What is the longest power move you all have seen? I saw a video here years ago of 40 locomotives crossing a road in Nevada, I think. There was another power move that had 2 refrigerated boxcars on the end that was pretty long. I always thought the dispatcher was like, "Hey, you wanna take these 2 boxcars with you?" I'll have to find them. As always, JT. Excellent video. Not far from the Horseshoe and even closer to the derailment site of that passenger train the 1940s. That one was bad. Thanks again, JT. I always tag along. 👍
There’s no wrong location for train watching on the Pittsburgh line especially near the Gallitzen tunnels, Cassandra, and HC. Cool horn salute JT. Most of the traffic on the line today is intermodal , even back during CR days. Great job as always and stay safe JT.
The room you stayed in was nice. Did you look under the bed for monsters? I would. But then, I'd probably smoke a cigarette in the room and tell the hotel folks that I had a monster in my room who smoked. As far as your car rental is concerned, I'd just return it for a big HARLEY-Davidson. That'd be 'way cool' and better suit your image. Gracias por tu video. RT sends, Puebla, México...
Thank you for a great railfan video from Tunnel Overlook Park. As usual, you continue to spoil me with the great commentary, effort and sacrifice you make to get us these outstanding shots. Thank you. (Really, a remote location, with a car that potentially could leave you stranded so that we could get great railfan video. Who does that??? Jawtooth, that’s who!!!! You rock!
As always, Brian, great video! Thanks again for all that you do to bring us such a variety! Now, one thing I have to tell you is that I'm a stickler for proper spelling and pronunciation - the word is "fob", you were having problems with the key fob. Don't want anyone to think you're uneducated, when we all know that's not the case at all.
Very cool video Brian. If you get a chance to go sometime go see the 2102 Reading and Northern coming out of the Tamaqua tunnel. They are running it 3 times in October.
@@JawTooth That runs 3 times in October Brian. Not sure if the exact dates. It is an awesome locomotive. Plenty of places to capture it.I videoed it a few times.I hope you can get a chance to film it soon.
@@JawTooth That's cool Brian are you coming out for a few days or just one day. There's a lot of action near me. Average 50 plus trains a day here. I'm just east of Harrisburg. N/S Harrisburg East Line.
As I was telling a fellow rider this past June while riding the _Pennsylvanian_ (the Amtrak train you filmed), the train started below 34th Street in Manhattan, and as of just past Horseshoe Curve, is now higher up than the top of the Empire State Building (and the line continues to climb until just west of the Gallitzin Tunnels). Also, gotta love the horns on those NS 1000-series SD70ACE's (7:20). After hearing the O-Gauge MTH model of NS 1111 (aka, the "Bar-Code Unit") had the same horn, I immediately bought one, which if you know the price of O-gauge diesels, is nothing to sneeze at :D
Great area for rail fanning! I'm wondering if there is so much intermodal on this line due to it being East Coast and lots of goods coming from New York and New England heading elsewhere. Many thanks for these video's. Enjoy them all and look forward to the next!!
I notice they sound the horn entering and exiting the tunnels. You never know one might be walking thru😮. Love the c intermodels, may not be heavy but they look heavy, plus they carry allot of consumer products. Thanks for the video. Keyless ignitions need 2 battery's one in the keyphob and the car battery. They are cool until the battery dies🤬 stay safe roll on
My car has a slot in the console to insert the key fob if it doesn't work remotely. I had to use it once. That should be a job for the rental company to keep up with things like that.
My brothers Cadillac has a little depression under the armrest where you put the fob if it thinks the battery is low. I say "thinks" because he replaced the battery and after a few days its back to thinking its dead again... JT needs to just take the rental back for a different one...
I agree!! I looked really close for bed bugs but didn't see any. You should have seen what the shower looked like. It was a dark, dreary small concrete cell lolz
Yeah, I don''t think Gallitzin Tunnel has any ventilation system installed - which would have been fun in steam days! Also, best place to watch trains on that route is at the Station Inn, CRESSON - a few miles west from Gallitzin. Just sit on the verandah and watch the trains go by!!
If you read in the owner's manual there usually a specific place in the car that will start the car with a dead remote usually in one of the cup holders
I think that car has a sensor in the cup holders. Look for the key picture in the bottom of one of the cup holders and place the fob there when you start it
@jaw tooth if ever coming through Pittsburgh, I can give you an up close and personal spot to the Pittsburgh to Harrisburg line on the Conemaugh sub. Some unique history recently uncovered there too.
