2018 NARCOA Motorcar Excursion on the Indiana Eastern Railroad

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

On August 18, 2018 the North American Railcar Operators Association made their annual excursion along the Indiana Eastern. The railroad was once part of the C&O's mainline from Cincinnati to Chicago. CSX operated the route until the Early 2000s when IERR took over. Much of the C&O route has been abandoned including 18+ miles between Cincinnati and Fernald, Ohio as well as much of the track north of Richmond, Indiana. This motorcar trip ran over most of the 43 miles that the Indiana Eastern operates. This video covers the southbound run from Bath Indiana to the end of track as well as the northbound run over the large trestle at Okeana Ohio.
Drone footage captured with a DJI Phantom 3 Advanced. All footage copyright Brian Sellers. If you enjoyed this video please like and subscribe!

    They look like soooo much fun to be on. Videos like this one can really make someone get hooked on owning one, and experience their own railroad adventures. I'm gonna ask Santa to bring me one under my Christmas tree this year. This is better than asking for my two front teeth.

    Thank you for the video! This one and others motivate me to find and buy an old Dodge diesel truck and trailer to haul a Fairmont MT19 all around the country and join those fine folks riding the rails. This dovetails perfectly with my lifelong obsession with all things concerning railroading.

    I wonder if anyone has ever thought of making one of those with pneumatic tyres and a steering wheel that could be used on the road? I think it would be a great idea and I think I could be onto a winner!

    Estos videos me recuerdan entre el tramo de Coatzacoalcos Veracruz hasta Campeche, se manejó muchísimo esas Maquinitas.eran las que transportaban alos trabajadores que daban mantenimiento, a las vías férreas, los mayorcitos sin casetas se le llamaban PASPASITOS, a pero como corrían que daban gusto, se encendían con una manivela dándoles vuelta.

    Have you experienced anything scary riding along the rails? I have a coworker who use to work a railroad and was an engineer. He told me some frightening stories.

    Get clearance (preferably a track warrant) before putting your speeder on "someone's rail". When you have to jump and you're on that trestle, say your prayers.
