Now the train crew has realized that the brakes aren't coming on through out the entire train. A block in the air hose. The train is now racing down hill and the crew is praying that they stay on the rails. HOLD ON!
Got up about 6am and just made it to town to catch Amtrak P052 heading north on the main towards Lorton, VA on the CSX North End Sub. B32-8W #514 was leading and was a real treat. Enjoy and rate and comment.
My crazy bus driver at the wheel. My two country boy buddies (Hell, I'm Country, too) want him to do a burn out with the school bus. Hold down the brakes and gas pedal at the same time and then let off the brakes. Though even though the bus is new. It really is a piece of shit.
This is a video I put together to show my appreciation to all the railroaders who help run this country. Where would we be without 'em? I dedicated this vid to 2 good friends of mine. Super Dave and Namerifrats. Thanks guys for being apart of the railroading for this country.

Just happened to be riding out of downtown Mebane and picked up 349 on my scanner. Beat 'em to Gibson Rd just before the H29.5 signal and the 29.4 defect detector. 2 GP60s and a Dash 8. The two GP60s were used on 350 the next day.
A BNSF intermodel train has just stopped before the down hill part of the Cajon Pass grade. The train crew is using a CP and CEFX SD90MAC. Little did they know, that trouble was ahead for them.
This is NS 846 after Amtrak 79 cleared. 846 was waiting in Mcleansville and is now heading for the CP&L (Carolina Power & Light) power plant in Goldsboro, NC. Nice power here. 3 Dash 9s a SD70M.
Q451 passes over the trestle at down town Weldon, NC. E576 is coming from the Roanoke Valley Energy Facility. They started doubling up the empty coal hoppers around 8AM and now are waiting for Q451 to pass so they can get clearance to the main line.
