DIB, you truly are one the premier railfan channels on RU-vid. I was born and raised in Kalamazoo. So many fond memories of taking the Amtrak from Kalamazoo to Chicago, and your videos of that area are like a homecoming trip. Likewise, your vids of my new home area of North Carolina are equally entertaining and educational. Your mix of narrative and simple, glorious train watching is superb (authentic crew radio chatter...wow!). Kalamazoo was a unique place to live because trains cut through the city in numerous places. So much that saying "I was delayed by the train" was always a legitimate excuse (late teenagers that are smart learned this very quickly). I think a video there could be worth your while (if you haven't already) especially from Kalamazoo to Union Station in downtown Chicago (home of the infamous baby carriage scene from the movie "The Untouchables"). Thanks again, guys! Outstanding work.

Sd40s are the one engine I can identify by sound from miles away. They have a certain sound that is very distinctive even from a distance. These were the trains of my childhood.

SD40-2 is one of my favorite locomotives! Here in Brazil, we have two unique SD40-2 versions: some former CPR SD40-2 with narrow-gauge (1000 mm) trucks (these machines run on Southern Brazil) and some European-built, Irish-gauge SD40-2 (In Rio - São Paulo freight services, there are many SD40-2 built by MACOSA in Spain!). Also, Estrada de Ferro Vitória a Minas (a Vale railway) bought some Conrail SD40-2, rebulit them with B-B narrow-gauge trucks and renamed it EMD BB40-2 - the nickname is "Titanic" due to larger front walkway.

@jameswise3971 2 года назад

SD40-2 will always be my favorite freight locomotive hands down! Though the SD40-2 locomotives here their prime mover sounds more less turbo than the usual prime mover that makes the locomotive scream at full throttle.

@dhritisamanta4382 2 года назад

SD40-2 is my favorite locomotive, they are over 50 years old they never look worn down or backdated. But the sad thing is CP and NS purges out their SD40-2s. Anyways love from India🇮🇳

@Abin_Bhowal 2 года назад

@dhriti The deep Humming & Turbo Howling of SD40-2 645 Prime Mover is Kinda Unique compared to 710G series. This is the reason why I love SD-40 more than any other EMD locomotives. But yes our Indian WDG4 GT46MAC (Early 12XXX Series) has some of these characteristics like SD-40.

@BmdZero 2 года назад

I love those SD40-2s with a passion ❤️, especially with a sweet and spirited P5 horn, you should document the NS Pulaski District, they have SD40-2 on locals V37, V40, V39, and V19 going back and forth on that line. You should really do that sometime, we really need a documentary on that line.

@BmdZero 2 года назад

EMD is the best locomotive manufacturer; better than GE. Along with the GP50 and GP7, the SD40 and SD40-2s are my favorite locomotives of all time. Most of the time, SD40-2’s that are more than 40 years old take less maintenance than a 20 year old GE locomotive.

Great video I love the old EMD units if you noticed northfolk Southern and CSX and Union Pacific all have a lot of those engines that all look identical I don't know what they are but they look like a dash nine I don't know exactly the name of the engine I'm not really too good at naming what type of engines are especially the newer ones the older ones I know newer ones not so much but the old emds sd40s sd45s gp40s gp38s these are the types of engines that I grew up on watching pulling out of the yard all the time on the old Pan am railways line now it was purchased by CSX as of June 2022 what if you're ever in Western Massachusetts try the East Deerfield freight yard in Deerfield Massachusetts it's called the East Deerfield freight yard and it's right next to the Connecticut River you can't miss the turnoff there's a huge trestle going across the river depending on which way you're coming from if you're going over the bridge you Bank a left

The pos Tain control. is a slam dunk I remember watching engineers putting a brakepipe on the "Dead Mans Petal years ago. Since 911 And that Passenger train going in the drink after a barge took out the piling on the bridge. It was a tragic one in the fog to top it off!, real game changer!

Why do we need to see some idiot's tags and self agrandisements? But it's there and it's a part of modern life, so what can we do? The SD40s were great to see, and your filming of that Amtrak 355 being used to pull the PTC train was very interesting. I have subscribed on the strength of this video.

@DelayInBlockProductions 2 года назад

Um, they already have strict regulations and have since 2002. All locomotives built after 2002 have at least Tier 2 emissions standards all the way up to Tier 4. The locomotives you see here are 30-45 years old. Plus, even if they “roll coal,” think about how many trucks a 100 car train takes off the road. At least 200 to 250 trucks. Even without the EPA Tier standards of 2002 and beyond, they are way cleaner than trucks.
