Well then...thanks for saving me from double tracking this year, passing siding with only 3 engines in my collections DCC roster, and a small yard (literally 4 tracks, one for breaking down & building trains, one for a team track, an interchange to the SOO/CN and the final one for a bulk transloading facility). My area of interest sees coal, lumber, and agricultural products, and car storage for 2 & 3 bay covered hoppers, surprisingly covered hoppers & boxcars are more common than coal gondolas, tanks & standard gondolas in the prototype area.

I enjoy hearing the engineer side of train operation and I enjoy your drone footage

DJ, I have been enjoying your videos for about a year now, Thanks for what you do! I drive a OTR flatbed delivering OSB out of the Weyerhaeuser mill in Flatwoods WV. At about the 6:00 mark what do I see, probably the most despised delivery we do, Allegheny Millworks right beside the 10th street bridge! This place is an absolute nightmare to get into and out of!

Hi Dj,I love your channel and your humor.you are one of the best youtubers I've ever seen. I have so much fun watching the channel. I have a big bedroom floor layout that is a double track mainline with an 8 track rail yard and I am thinking about replacing the 6 inch curve pieces with the 1 foot curved pieces reducing the string line derailments.the trains can be longer than ever. I can finally have 34 car trains on my outside loop. And I have 12 trains in total some of the engine bodies are H O scale with wheels that would fit perfectly on the wooden train tracks. That way I can operate the trains by hand to save electricity to reduce electric costs for my home and my grandmother. I also do that so I don't have to get track cleaning supplies for every single engine that is HO scale. But then there are costs of all the locomotive wheels from whittle shortline railroad and the 5 8ths screw in couplings for the trains. That is why I have a wooden train layout in my room. And I also like to make my trains look nice and clean. I am so glad I could make the trains very big and so much fun to operate on the railroad. I also deliver the freight from point A to point B and I haul everything coal to gifts and recycling materials to the costumers all over the imaginary Island Of Poultney. I got that from the Island Of SODOR from Thomas and friends. I love that show except All Engines Go. I hate that part of the show so much. I would rather watch chuggington. I think All Engines Go is the worst train show I've ever seen in my life but I like Big World Big Adventures because they got a new engine for the steam team on SODOR. Her name is Rebecca. She is very very kind and helpful to everyone even to devious Deisel who tricks her into doing the jobs that the other diesels were supposed to do but he gave her the wrong destinations to get the other diesels into trouble with the fat controller. Rebecca found out about the plan after she delivered the cars to the wrong place and told the fat controller what diesel told her to do and that got him into trouble and I think he deserves it. Rebecca is one of the best Engines ever. Sorry for going off topic. Thanks Cory Mears

Looking great, DJ. Happy 2023 my friend!

Railfanning, stopped doing it since I work for the railways. Although the occasional oddity still can capture my attention and if time permits I happily take a picture.

I have just found your channel. I live in North Texas. Except for the Houston Ship Channel we do not have legacy waterways that carried freight or passengers. Also don’t have a lot of mountains to cut tunnels through. We do have big flat prairies. So I chuckle when you talk about building next to a river. In fact a river in West Texas may have less water than your creeks and streams. I do enjoy your videos and RailRoad experience. I just wanted to thank you and have a little fun. I live in Dallas, which is one of the largest land locked cities in the world.

You got that right

I'm doing a freelance "what if" road. The question answered is, "What if steam and turbine power never went away?" I use modern era rolling stock and non-railroad construction, but steam and turbine motive power with the associated infrastructure. I do have a few diesels, but they're mostly switchers. Up to third-generation, with minimal road engines. No F-units, no E-units. I do have modern electric engines, though. You might see an Acela or a GG1. But for the most part the road engines are either turbines or steam locomotives. Additionally, I use three-rail O-scale for more realism and less setup for signals and accessories. I also use speed-controlled slot cars wired to a set of timers and signal units, similar to block signals on the rails, in order to make realistic car traffic. When the crossing gates are down the street signal is red and the slot cars in the block, stop. Then when the gates go up the lights turn green and the cars move again. The cars are wired internally to have headlights, tail lights and specialty lighting (for emergency vehicles). My layout is hi-rail, but it is extremely realistic apart from the "what if" factor. It's basically "Budget Miniatur Wunderland".

In Ft. Wayne, IN there is a rail line that goes for almost a mile and a half from the mainline to serve a bulk material facility (for the INDOT facility nearby?) and a few warehouses/lumberyard suppliers. The tracks cross Butler Road via a creepy (wooden?) bridge. I’ve seen in the late nineties an SD40-2 being used retrieve cars from the sidings. Nowadays I believe NS uses the SD40E?(SD60) as local switchers. I might never get around to doing some sightseeing (from the streets) one of these weekends for an update.

On a layout, if you have a passing siding that holds 20 cars, that takes 15 ft so you are almost running double track any way. So two passing sidings and you are doing 30 ft. of track plus approaches and switch leads.

Very educational. Thanks.

Hi DJ, Been trying to get back into the hobby, the pandemic hasn’t helped at all as some health issues keep me out of big box stores, hardware stores, hobby shops, train shows etc. My uncle worked for the B&O, Punxsutawney to DuBois until his retirement back in the late, 80s or 90s. Don’t know what his job was exactly but did watch him work the yard in Punxsy when we were up from D.C. back in the 50s I remember parking ear the tracks out of Union Station and watching the trains going to and from. First lots of big black steam, then diesels and the electrics of the Pennsylvania R.R. I’m not going to try to replicate DC Union station or up around Punxsutawney but I do like that era. My trains, HO, are from the Sixties and Seventies and are DC. So I need to decide to convert to DCC locomotives from DC and get everything out of storage. I intend to begin with Four modular sections, as being in my 70s my daughter and granddaughter will eventually have to move them out of the basement. This will also allow for expansion. Watch your videos plus about 4-5 others to get up to date on all the changes. Thanks for the videos

Hi DJ, Great video full of information. The railroad I work for sent us to their training center for 2 months in Georgia all expenses paid. Now the motel was more like Motel 6 and most of our meals were taken at Subway and Fast Food restaurants, as you were only given so much money per week on your meal card. But all in all it was a very enjoyable experience. Also I don't know if you didn't want to go into a lot of detail, but it's the GE's that give you the load limited warning when the water temp is below 155 degrees. You know the railroad I work for but I'm not really announcing that, big brother does watch social media and my comments are my own and do not reflect those of the company. Having said that, our locomotives use AESS (Auto Engine Start / Stop) system that will shut the locomotive down, but monitors things like temperature, main reservoir pressure and battery voltage. Of course you have to let AESS shut the engine down, if you hit the EFCO (Engine Fuel Cut Off aka red stop button) you disable the AESS and the locomotive will not restart until manually restarted. Now onto the model portion of my long winded reply (ha ha ha) I love switching operations but have been unable to choose a specific railroad or time period. With my very limited modeling space I choose to create a fictitious or freelance branch line serving a small town. I want the layout to look like a little piece of the real world, but I don't get stressed if my tracks don't have drainage ditches. I'm not knocking anyone who does enjoy modeling that detail, that is the great thing with this hobby, there is room for everyone. My branch is loosely based on branches like the P&LE Ohio River Branch or their Ellwood City Branch, but I didn't want to limit myself to just the P&LE. So though out the year you'll find different railroads operating the branch, but one important thing you mentioned you'll only find railroad cars on my layout that are associated with the industries served on the branch, no stock cars or well cars on this branch line. Also something I learned years ago, never say never in the railroad world. Yes railroad of today want all their customers to be located right along side the mainline, but that wasn't always the case. A couple examples, the Montour railroad had branches that reached coal mines in Westland, PA and Library, PA. Plus the above mentioned P&LE that had a branch that went to Shippingport. Cheers, Rich S.

Hi @@moregltfirephotography4857, Yes at one time the Pennsylvania railroad owned part of the branch between Weirton and Kobuta. I believe the PRR section was called "The New Cumberland Branch". The PRR and P&LE had a switching agreement where every 6 months they'd alternate between who would switch the industries in Kobuta. The story I heard was a trestle on the PRR section below Shippingport was washed out and the P&LE became the sole operator of the line. During the end of the P&LE era, the section of the branch between ARCO Polymers and Shippingport was under the control of Duquesne Light and only saw occasional movements of High & Wide loads to the power plants. I never got the chance to photograph the Schnabel car on the branch, but heard reports it made several trips to the power plant delivering High & Wide Transformer loads. Cheers, Rich S.

They always have their RCL strobes going, is it a choice of the crew to use RCL vs doing it the old fashioned way? We also got PSRed and had critical cars with held, we raised some hell and they sent out an extra in the middle of the day that also came as a remote job, both crew members had control packs.
