Heavy metal, definitely like the sound of steel on steel rails.

October 30, 2023 in Pittsburgh US Steel manufacturing christened two converted switch engines. They were converted from Diesel Electric to fully Electric engines. The engines were removed and installed batteries in place. The commentator reported that these engines batteries have to be recharged every two to three days in that service. These engines will be used in the yards to move cars in and out of position.

Logansport! Was there three-four weeks ago! Didn’t see any trains until heading down to Lafayette. Love the rumble of that EMD loco!! Thanks Jawtooth!!

@the first train, the boxcars are so neat and new ! 😊

Awesome video with a dpu working hard but wait there’s more 👍😎🇺🇸🚂👍

Loganport a small town with a lot of train traffic and with diamonds great video thanks Brian and Scott

That last train at dusk -- very cool!

So beautiful video my dear friend! Big like ! Have a great day, greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

I enjoyed watching this video of your railfanning at Logansport, Indiana on 12 October 2023, Jaw Tooth! You did catch a Toledo, Peoria & Western Railroad train heading east on the TP&W line. The Norfolk Southern line had a lot of trains traveling on it.

That sculpture looks like a falling iron meteor, JT!

Once the sun drops below the trees 🌳 the wind picks up 😮

That grain train at 11:00 got a nice beat to it :D

Man that's a busy NS line at the diamonds and good footage Jawtooth!🛤🚂🎃

The welded artwork looked like a comet entering earth’s atmosphere.

Merci beaucoup pour cette très belle vidéo ! 👍🙏

My local railroad just bought the TPW 1538 the end of last month nice catch!

Awesome joint sounds. The most soothing sound for the train fans.

You put whatever you want in the titles - you’re AOK JT! Thanks, Jaw Tooth.

I believe the metal sculpture was by Jim Galbreath, metal artist and owner of a metal fabrication company that was once located at that site. He also made the cool bike racks scattered around town.

Just guessing, but I would say that object you were wondering about represents either a meteoroid or a comet. This was a great video, but I really enjoyed the TP&W train. I live in a town right on the track. Go Tip and Wobble😊

Jaw Tooth, this really was enjoyable for me to watch - Not sure why, but I truly enjoy trains going over diamonds, and to have two of them (with one waiting in sight) is fabulous. Your videos are great - nice and steady with easy movements - not shaky and spinning around every five seconds. Keep up the great work and keep God in your heart!

FYI, the company that rolled the rail was Bethlehem Steel Corp (BSCO) at their plant located in Steelton, Pa.

That was quite the live action spot!! Fantastic train action and great looking train loads! Always enjoy seeing the different locomotives. Great video JT!! Thank you !!

That Diamond is a Gem. So quiet.

For a smaller town that was pretty good action. NS gets the benefit of crossing the diamond first but the TP&W didn't have to wait too long. Thanks for shooting the train coming across the bridge. Because of the sun angle and the fact that it has high sides it usually eludes videos. In fact it was dark enough that was the DPU I almost missed you but the train had plenty of empty gondolas heading back East for pipe loading. Thankfully you did not get the one finger salute from the shortline crew like you did last time and if you notice the TP&W power it was like going to Winton Place in Cincinnati. The lead unit was Marquette rail in honor of that solitary boxcar that usually goes by and the second unit was Indiana and Ohio which we see leaving on their transfer run on occasion. Trick or treat and we all got treated to a JT video. Perhaps the metal ball was to portray a flaming comet.

Fantastic location , gorgeous scenery , and a great job as always ! What a find this place is Brian ! WOW ! I think I'm gonna put you on my payroll. 😊😄

That's a familiar sound from back in the day. We had the Penn Central cross the B&O in Troy. Wow, look at all of those bolts through that diamond. I LOVE those green grain cars. Wow, that's a old rail section. That looks like a very short curve coming into the diamond. You had a GREAT shot of that. That artwork is VERY cool. I wonder why it's sitting there? I'd like to have that in my yard. Great shot of the train coming in over the the bridge. Some great art work on those auto cars as they cruised by. I remember back in the day when they were all open. I used to love to see the new cars. Your shot in the dark was a treat. Everything looked great. You had a very productive day. Great spot.

Loganport was a huge Pennsy hub back in the day. It's a shadow of its former self with all of the mergers. The large Pennsy maintenance facility is still used for car repair by Transco

Logansport is the eastern end of the Toledo Peoria & Western. It was jointly owned by the Pennsylvania and Santa Fe and ran west of there to Keokuk Iowa. For a brief period in the 80s Santa Fe reclaimed TP&W but it didn't last long for reasons I can't recall. As it stands now it only runs as far west as Peoria now with the Tazwell & Peoria handling the Peoria to Keokuk end. Also the almost tie at the diamond reminded me of an article from Classic Trains in the late 90s or early 2Ks where the Chicago Great Western and Illinois Central Iowa division literally had a tie at their automated crossing in Elmhurst Illinois in 1966 or 67. Westbound CGW freight hit the crossing circuit at the exact time a westbound IC freight ( IC crossed at an angle before heading west) also hit the circuit. As it ended up head end crews from both trains went and asked each other who had the red and when it was discovered both had a red board because they tied to the crossing circuit one of the crews called dispatch and not having a specific procedure they were told effectively work it out so who got to go first was decided by a coin flip that IC won so the circuit was reset to allow IC to proceed west where once IC cleared the interlocking CGW reset the timer and once thar ran down CGW also proceeded west leaving the railfan photographer with a tale and photos of a once in a million event.

Me too. I have filmed a lot of diamonds

On the local job with the Jeeps, the lead #5338 had a peculiar windshield. The center panes of glass tilted down and inwards. That's the 1st time I'd seen one like that. Neat😊

Man, that first train was what I call a dream train - tons of boxcars along with a mix of about everything. Shout-out to NS for putting that train together. One of the signatures on the graffiti at 03:28 is interesting also. Among the others, one said "FR8 CarteL." That's got a cool vibe to it.....Freight Cartel. I'm guessing that mark is spread around more commonly than we realize. 👍🏻👍🏻

I live less than 100 feet from a CSX main, at a crossing. I love to just sit out and watch the art on the trains. In the winter, I can watch from inside from 6 different windows. I've always thought some of the best artwork in the world goes up and down the railroad.

The Toledo, Baltimore and Western has some pretty nice looking power. 😊😊

My brother-in-law is the rail fan, but the title caught my eye today. More trains in a half-hour than I've ever seen, BUT: The coolest part was THE DOGS!!! I've never seen dogs with that kind of 'checkerboard' pattern fur. They were 'way cool', to use a phrase I've never used before. Seems appropriate for them!!!

I love the cadence of the wheels pounding that diamond. Good high def camera work, JT. Looks like y'all had a good day of railfanning.

Since the Norfolk Southern Line is X Wabash could that metal piece possibly be a take off on their passenger train which passed through here? The Wabash Cannonball

It’s amazing how those trains roll along so quietly

The railroad pretty much built my town back in the 1800s from 1940s through the early 60s i had at one time 3 separate railways go through my town the Nickelplate the B&O the Erie and the ISC which was a short line and i had the interurban which was a trolly rail line so 4 different tracks in my town at once

25:50 Looks like a fireball, maybe like a flaming asteroid once it enters the atmosphere. I wonder if that wire coming out of the bottom meant that at one point it used to light up.

I thought the Toledo. Peoria and Western train timing was great

Tooth, You are on fire‼️ Your videos, your commentary, the sounds, and production are all the best. I don't know what I'd do without your calming, train-loving voice each day. Keep the train volume up, this is one of the most interesting diamonds. I love Muncie too. This collection is terrific. I love trains, but the hours it must take to catch 7 at this juncture sounds like ALL DAY‼️ Thanks for your hard work and talent. Stop trying to look cool. You are, but wear some appropriate attire for the advent of winter. If you pick the right spots, car shots are fine with -F* temps. Of course there's trains South too. Good Luck. Good vid!🍀🔝😎🌝🇺🇸

Another dark shot FTW💯🔥🔥🔥

Nice catch of a “meet and wait” at the Diamond, JT! That NS on the bridge was moving! What Loci steal your radar gun?

That sure was a bunch of trains, stay safe

What a difference a couple weeks makes. The weather in the video looks great while up here in Rhinelader Wi. we just got 3" of the "white death" for Halloween with a low of 13°F tonight. Excellent video and great action, enjoyed it much. Thanks JT! (Night shots are my favorite, I'll watch all you have).
