Any hopes for a new Rail to Truck Transloads Facilities Note your videos did a nice job showcasing this 👍👏😀

Wow great units ...Great switching videos

By the looks of the compression of the truck springs on the log cars , that is quite a heavy load of logs!

OMG! what a treat! I was an engineer for southern Pacific Railroad! I worked out of Albany and Lebanon! One of my regular runs I was engineer aboard a long train we ran from Albany to Mill city and back! I workEd A local freight out of Lebanon serving the mills there! I spent most of my career working out of Portland over the entire Willamette Valley! In those days we use the S.D 9s One of my favorite locomotives! another awesome run from Corvallis to Toledo! Beautiful country covered bridges small towns mountain territory! also the old Tillamook Hauler between Portland and Tillamook! Sorry getting carried away

Wow live the bcrail log cars. They look somewhat clean too!

Nice to see the BCR name live on!

I'm from lebanon oregon and I know one of the people who drives the albany and eastern trains.

Albany & Eastern takes great pride in the appearance of their power units, including the gorgeous little GP that handles loads between Albany and Lyons / Mill City! I live in Corvallis, so greatly enjoy the Albany & Eastern trains along with the Portland and Western trains here in the Valley. Great video!

Thank you! I agree; their fleet of power looks better than any other I’ve seen on a working freight railroad.

Nice clean unit I agree looks like a C&NW paint job except for the silver trucks. Nice load of utility poles

Nice horns and power! RS3K, old cast P5, you can tell these beasts have been on the road for a *very* long time. And I admire the pristine paint, reminds me of the CNW.

Thanks for this! I live in upstate NY and I keep a custom-painted AERC unit on my HO scale layout based on the Pacific Northwest (#1841). It's great to see these old GE units still going strong in 2021! And they all look great with the sharp AERC green and gold paint scheme (based on U of O colors), especially considering they are 30+ years old.

Very nice! A lot of ROW between them!

I dont think ive ever seen such a shiny, clean, freight locomotive as what AERC has. Very beautiful engines

beautiful log train. Been trying to get shots of this. I would get to Albany at about 7 in the morning and then follow the line to Lebannon. I guess I should actually be going beyond that to Mill City !!!

I heard a nasty rumor that the log train was halted. I hope that isn’t true. But I guess the log cars are being stored out toward sweet home.

Hello, sorry late reply. But this train gets to albany between 8-10 am usually and leaves for Lebanon after exchanging trains. This is weekdays only.

Am I the only one who thought this was in New York? (This railroad is in Oregon btw). Great footage nonetheless.

When in yards, speed is 10 mph. Some branchlines have bad track that restrict speeds. The annual tons per mile revenue doesn’t usually allow for the cost of maintaining higher speed track.
