As always , you are a wealth of information Dave. The history of your employment with Cumberland is quite interesting. My dad said he remembers the old brand new US Steel equipment when steel was King in our area of Ohio. He said it was the proudest time of his life when we made things in the US and didn't import everything. Your pride in your job is really obvious and it says a lot about you. Thanks for taking us all along for the " ride".

Alex Drake. I'm from Western Australia. I know how your father feels when he mentioned regarding steel. Western Australia has the biggest iron ore export in Australia. Selling to China. We then buy the product back from China. Rio Tinto have an office in the City. Perth. The price of steel has almost doubled recently. Someone is making a lot of money and its not me.

They treat their employees very well and are spending enormous amounts of money for up grades, all much needed.

Good Intro. I appreciate the facts and figures, practices, coal info, etc. Years ago my wife and I lived in Neu Joisey. Most of our travel during that 3.5 years was to PA. I am a Westerner and prefer the West, but PA did become my favorite Eastern state. The last thing we did together before she died suddenly was to ride a train . So now I am back in my rural northeastern corner of California. They tore up the tracks here so I never get to see a train anymore unless I go down to Reno for appointments or shopping.

The engine and train consist info was also interesting- it makes a lot of sense.

I was thinking about the concrete ties. One solution could be to have duplicate switches mounted two inches apart and relays to select the current height by selecting the upper or lower set of switches. That'll make it possible to make a button select between wood and concrete. Awesome video as always, Dave! You're the best ambassador for railroading there is!

You are a thinking man Kristian! I like that. Some tampers do have a 5th limit switch for that purpose. The Jupiter 2 operating system did away with the limit switches and you can toggle on the computer screen between concrete and wood ties. We are looking into an upgrade on my tamper to a Jupiter 2 system. Lot of money and time to get accomplished, I will keep you informed about how that pans out. Gonna do a vid sometime in the way future on the differences between concrete and wood ties, there is more involved than just the tamper limit switches why we don't use them. Concrete ties are perfect for light transit applications however, There is a lot to discuss about the differences, too much to put in a comment.

Oh that would be awesome, a painting.Sweet, no one has ever done that to my knowledge. There have been a few hand drawn prints made. Be sure and look me up if you do come.

That answered a few remaining questions I had. Thanks

Dave, once again a great video of the Cumberland mine RR, great idea for the new comers and a good refresher for us older subs. You could do this once a year, I would still enjoy the history lesson. And thanks for the shout out in the description. Appreciate that buddy, Happy Easter.
