Awesome catches! 1 BNSF ACes are on quite literally any train we get here lol and are always paired with GEVOs and half the time are leading! (Mostly coal trains ofc) 2, we get a few coal trains a day with around 10+ engines sometimes running a goofy 2x7x2 or something like that.
Bro really said, "RARE FOOTAGE OF NS NOT DERAILING!1!1!1!1!1!"😅😅😅 and also UP #6338 is Ex Southern Pacific #272 and its good to still have flashing ditch lights😮
I have seen many units in my days along the tracks, some more than once. It always surprises me how much the topography changes the horns echo from location to location. Also my take on Canadian locos, I love their high pitched horns. Also you can keep CSX 7009, the rebuilds are junk and smoke more than before they were rebuilt. Careful that NS might derail. Long live SP! DPU alright! It’s a little funny how nice and clean unfaded that UP ACe was compared to the GEVO’s. Power moves never killed anyone.
The train at 16:46 only had 3 of the 7 units running. The remaining 4 were offline (not running), most likely being ferried to another location to be used on other trains. Its not uncommon for BNSF to do this sort of thing, although back in the day (before PSR and greedy hedge fund groups began crippling the industy), there were instances where a high priority train (mostly intermodal Z trains) would have several locomotives as speed was the main thing and not lack of tractive effort.
