Street Running Train Surprises City During Parade & Light Up LaGrange 2022! Right as the parade with Santa got to me I see a CSX train coming right on cue! I could see Santa and the headlight of the train at the same time. Thousands of people were on the streets and had to move out of the way for the train to run down the middle of Main Street. Perfect timing for the rail fans! Video also includes another street runner train, model train layout in the train station, steam train appearing to come back to life and the unveiling of a brand new statue in LaGrange. All this and more at the 2022 Light Up LaGrange in LaGrange, Kentucky.
First we see a CSX street running train with empty auto racks heading to Louisville, Kentucky from Cincinnati Queensgate Yard. This train came through right after the police closed Main Street to traffic. Shortly after that we see the start of the Shop With A Trooper 5K Run. Then we go to the train station at the north end of town. We see the model train layouts in the basement and then we see the old steam engine outside appear to come to life. Smoke was added for effects. After that I went to the Railfan platform for a quick look.
Santa Claus came by on the back of a fire truck just a little after 6pm. I had to remove the audio due to a claim from Jackson 5 for 22 seconds of the song Santa Claus Is Coming To Town. I took out a few extra seconds to play it safe. Had I left their audio in all of the money from this video would have gone to them. I'm just trying to get my gas and time paid for in making this video. I had to completely redownload the video which took me an extra day to post it.
In the video you can hear my scanner audio. The railroad dispatcher was talking to the train crew about the parade. That is very interesting audio and I'm probably the only person to record it. The train comes through the crowds of people at about 10 miles per hour and then speeds up after the locomotives exit the street. The train can speed up to 25 mph after the locomotives leave the street. In my next video from LaGrange I will show the signs for the train speed. Too many people keep reporting the wrong information and I keep trying to correct them. The best train frequencies for LaGrange are 161.370 for road, 161.310 for dispatcher to train and 452.9375 for end of train device.
I filmed the train in the area of town that has the most light. I didn't do anything by chance. I had been planning this video for months. After the train passed I went over to film the unveiling of the new statue and the turning on of the lights in town. I was able to get my picture taken next to the new statue with the designer.
After that I went back to the coffee shop for another Latte and to warm up and check my RU-vid channel. Some of the shops were still open up to 9pm. I was getting ready to leave just before 9 when I heard a train approaching on my scanner. The train finally arrived at 9:07pm and after filming it I left for the long ride home. See my video of that special train. Saturday was a busy train day for LaGrange. On my way there I filmed a train near Campbellsburg, Kentucky that had just gone through LaGrange. I filmed 4 other trains in LaGrange from 1pm to 9:20pm. I was hoping for 2 trains in LaGrange so I was pretty lucky.

Thanks for watching! If you have time, please watch another video of mine to help keep my channel going. Ads in the videos pay for my gas and other costs. I do this full time.
