GP38-2s. A classic.

Yes we have them here in Australia also, but they are t presented in the same clean looking scenario as the Georgia Central Locos. And yes they have the same paint scheme. Anyway I always enjoy your video presentations which gives an interesting insight into American railroad workings. 👍👍👍 ✌️out.

Gennesse and wyoming is a love hate subject. Without them many of the railroads they have bought would have disappeared. But with them comes a more class 1 style of railroading taking away the things that make short lines special. I don't personally mind their paint scheme to much but there are still plenty of independent shortlines out there still running strong.

I always liked the G&W paint. Easy to spot and the bright colors are always happy looking.

Hey, thank you! That means a lot. Thanks for putting on a good show for us by working those old EMDs. I thoroughly enjoyed visiting and look forward to shooting the GE locomotives during my next visit. -Drayton

I like the clever adoptable logo. The U&R here in Utah is changing from red to and gray to orange too.

I like them because they brought back hauling raw logs to the mills like when I was a kid .It was Southern Pacific then

Nice video. Greetings from Vietnam.

Here in the UK the orange and black livery is starting to appear on Class 66s class 70s and class 90 electric locomoitves as Genesee and Wyoming now own Frieghtliner over here

Great production as always!

Nice video Drayton. I really enjoyed this video of the Georgia Central Railway. Thankyou for documenting this day and for sharing it with us!

Horn sounds more like an automobile than a train! Miss old GC colors too!

So long for old geeps just like the old days

Well, I'm all for G&W's corporate livery, they seem to keep all their subsidiaries looking extremely smart

Phenomenal Catch great camera angles....of course the info is 2nd to none...Oh later in the vid saw some SO two bay Tuscan Hoppers... Try to find those girls in H0 ...sold out before issued ....I got 1. I use them for Agg Service.

I am learning from you thank you so much.

This is beautiful.

Great group of trains! Thanks for sharing!

Awesome video Drayton! keep up the amazing work dude!!!

That car at 5:30 seemed to be rather intimidated by the number of engines and decided to back up

Cool, great compilation!!!

Love your videos. Keep it up!

Very Nice videos of Georgia Central

Excellent video!

Hey that’s the train that come’s by at my back yard!

Till next time buddy, can’t wait for the next time in future.

Well documented!

Take on of those Vidalia onions, skin it and cut it top down into a star pattern, (blooming onion style) open it up add butter and one beef bouillon cube in the middle, close it and wrap in foil and bake or grill for 325 for 30 minutes. Thank me later!

Great video 🚄🚄👍

Great video of the action

They have a short line that runs from Florence Oregon on the coast hauling logs to Eugene

The GCP has some colorful locomotives.

You know before the U23Bs came along the GC had U33Bs and U30Bs from CSX boneyard in Waycross which started the Railroad up. The HOG and GC used to interchange in Vidalia when they were running container trains to Cordele.

I cant wait!!!!!!

Wow this so cool! I've been away from Vidalia for some years. The last time I was there, the GC seemed to be on a down slide and a long portion of the mainline appeared rough. I did enjoy seeing a group of high-nosed GE U-boats in action. So good to see that Georgia Central is prospering! I hope to visit Vidalia after the pandemic winds down. Are those U-Boats still in service and is there any word on possible passenger service on the GC mainline?

@Kayushi

Hi there. Hope I can answer your questions. The U23Bs were retired from 2014-2015. Only one survived, the 3965. The rest were scrapped or sent to Mexico with their dispositions unknown. Passenger service will more than likely not occur over this trackage. The track is only rated at class 2 status (25 mph for freight, 30 for passenger) and would need tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars to reach this capacity.

I appreciate the historical background, insights & maps. Left me wondering how many hours of research and story structure you must be investing per hour of completed video. Of course, the voice-over recording & edit are a separate huge chunk of time.

Got triplets on the trains

What's wrong with orange & black? Looks good to me, but then so does John Deere Green & yellow.

I have that train! Is in our backyard btw we don’t own it

Do you have a fluid head tripod. If so, use it to follow the trains on those occasions, as they pass by you. Think about it. Isn't that what we do when we watch a train pass by when we are not using a camcorder? We don't just stand there and stare in one direction; we follow the train with our eyes. Try it with a good fluid head tripod. Once you get good at it, you will have a nicer variety of shots to mix into your videos.

As a matter of interest, why are there three locomotives on the shortest American train I’ve ever seen? Most of the cargo trains I’ve seen in America have had a minimum of 20 wagons and at least four diesel locomotives.
