Nice Job Sam The legend veteran gp9 is still riding the rails on the Shenandoah Valley with the ALCO RS11 another gp9 and the Western Maryland EMD SD40 7471 how really cool to see the veteran locomotives still in service to keep on riding and shining the rails in the Virginia Mountains it is awesome. Hey Bro CSX is riding on the rails on the historical Clinchfield RR from Shelby KY to Kingsport Tn on its 81st year Next Saturday November 18th The 81st Aunnal CSX Santa Train is riding the rails on the Clinchfield RR from Kentucky to Tennessee in the Tri-Cities Region on its 110 mile journey from tunnels, bridges, and the most ironic railroad bridge the 1,068 ft long Copper Creek Vicduct right at highway 23 in Gate City VA it's about five miles from my house everyone likes to see the train crossing the bridge at Copper Creek right at the Clinch River And it will arrive at the Clinchfield Depot at Broad Street in Downtown Kingsport TN to finish it's journey from Kentucky Next Week November 18th 81st Aunnal CSX Santa Train

I like how much effort you put into avoiding the phrase "propane and propane accessories".

April 1960 when I was yuong boy 18 year I start my first job as Trackman B&O RR Blue Island Chicago, now I am 80 love train videos.

Love the high hoods and the color

I like your videos a lot. Your naration makes them a cut above most railfan vids!

Very nice video! We had visited the Buckingham Branch railroad in Doswell. If we go again next fall, we might check this one out!

I love to see those 70+ year old locomotives out performing this new stuff that's on the rails! And that horn is awesome! Where csx would probably have 3 loco's do this job,this here lone vintage geep is doin' just fine!

I wouldn’t say they are out preforming them but they are definitely along side

@@minnesotarailfan11 well them old ladies do a great job...they certainly were built for work and no play! I've seen quite a few old timers out performing 3 as opposed to just one doin' a job that's for sure

As a pretty big fan of the B&O, it always makes me happy to see B&O power still earning its keep, and still proudly wearing the Iconic lettering.

They’ve done a great job bringing the past back life, that’s for sure! Thanks for watching!

I really don't know why you don't have more subs. Your videos are almost as good as Danny Harmon's, but he works for broadcast TV in Tampa, FL so he has a bit of an advantage. It's great you're bringing short line railroads to us on the Tube, thanks! I think when the YT gods smile their algorithms on you, you'll get a lot more subs.

With the power they've got plus some real neat scenery it sure looks like a great place to visit. Truly a Heritage Unit in more ways than one

Great catches awesome video and nice video

One of the saddest mergers, collapses, mismanagement. take-overs, whatever you want to call it, that destroyed the B&O is IMHO, the worst event in all the railroad history of this country. The oldest, most important and arguably one of the most innovative of all railroads should not have met it's slow and painful demise the way it did. There are many fallen flags that could fit into that group of course, but the B&O stands out at just how serious the takedown of railroads in general were during the post war era. It's nice to see 6512 working. I bet she's a hoot to drive. We need shortlines now more than ever. Bless em!! Cool video!!

The horn on the GP9 sounds like a Leslie RS5T but it’s sounds great

@@appalachianrails thanks the RS5T is like my favorite train horn because it was used on the Seaboard Coast Line ( SCL ) before CSX was created

WOW! Is that the only B&O loco left?

The dude sounds like he’s trying to be Casey Casem on the top 40 or something. Just video, no narrative needed!

Hi! Thanks for watching and sharing your unique opinion with us. If you want to watch videos without any narration, there might be thousands of railfan channels for that… so I’d suggest you do some scrolling elsewhere. Sorry to hear you don’t like my narration! Thanks for commenting. 🙂
