Love watching RR switching no matter where you find it. Always love steam trains and those steam whistles, gives me goosebumps just hearing them. Any hotel near the tracks is a railfans dream “room with a view “. Another great job JT.👍🏼

Got me in this one too.. That was a sweet room by the tracks too!

Welcome to the Quad Cities! I hope you enjoyed your stay. I live in Geneseo, IL, about 20 miles to the East. The IAIS has tracks through town, the former Rock Island tracks. Lots of railroading here. Thanks for featuring our area!!!

Wow we are spoilt today JT 2 awesome videos. Brilliant motel room river view or train tracks view 🤔 i think you picked the best room. You dodged a tornado warning that hit Davenport the day after you left! Yep it got more rain. 😮 ❤😊👍

Love the big picture window on the back of that last car.

Wonder how many times Shoestring caught out at this yard? Looking forward to the steam 🚂. That's a pretty sweet hotel room. Ah a steam train at last. Love the sound of those whistles. Boxcar Willie used to have the best interpretation of them. Nice to see them being preserved😅. Have a very nice Fourth and see ya down the line.

Happy 4th July everyone

That was an excellent mixed freight, JT! Long, too. 181 cars. As fast as he was going with just one locomotive 🚂 most of those cars must have been empty! Great catch. 😃😃😃😃😃❤❤❤❤❤

There were tracks next to the river in Davenport that the river used to flood but they still ran through the water. neat to see.

What an awesome sight in digital age. Thank you for the views and your great commentary. Watch out for those deer flies.

Now who ever said Canadians and Americans can't work together to get the job done .Well theirs your proof right on the rail way tracks great train sun🚂🚃🚃

I grew up in Montreal. 2816 was built at Montreal Locomotive Works in 1939(?). It last saw revenue service in late 50's on a suburban commuter route running west from Montreal. My dad took that commuter train to work each day, it ran by the foot of our street in Dorval, Quebec.

I’m in Cedar Rapids. Thanks for the great footage of CPKCS and the steam train

I enjoyed watching the switching at the Canadian Pacific's Nahant Yard (former Milwaukee Road property) in Davenport, Iowa, Jaw Tooth! That was a wonderful motel room for train watching that you had at the Holiday Express Inn in LeClaire, Iowa. You were able to capture a Canadian Pacific manifest train from your motel room window as it passed. Nice catch of the CP 2816 coming around that curve and then passing your location. When the 2816 went south to Kansas City, Missouri on its way to Mexico, it did not have locomotive 7013 with it. The helper diesels on the southbound train to Kansas City had the F units in the videos that I saw. This trackage that the 2816 is running on is former Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Railroad trackage. This was part of the Milwaukee Road's line to Kansas City. (Posted 4 July 2024 at 1637 CDT.)

Two very nice runbys in good light and the auto and people filter worked very well. Their OCS now right up there with the other major railroads in the US. While you are certainly in the agricultural area that train being assembled is for a large electric Arc furnace Mill in nearby Montpelier and according to news reports you missed a runaway there by 2 days. This area does host a fair number of older non-modified CP\SOO\ICE flat cars and gondolas. Indeed a single unit on a roll lugging back empty Frac sand cars. Distillers grain cars.Tank cars for corn oil or syrup Maybe even ethanol and just like Cincinnati a gondola salute. PS. Sorry the view at the yard was blocked. It never fails those are the two most likely cars you'd see in Iron Mountain visiting Jason

Nice video, JT. I love the CP color scheme. The steam train looks great and I love the sound of a steam whistle. I love to watch trains but my wife thinks I'm nuts. She grew up in a house that backed up to the SP mainline that ran South from Sacramento down California's central valley - a rail fans dream location. Her father and uncles work for SP after WWII doing track repair. He walked out the back door and climbed up to the tracks to catch a passing train to go to work. Talk about a short commute.

3 diesels seems like overkill. Almost had me going there for a minute on the pets. I thought, another puppy? Vintage Loki LOL

If your not a railfan, there's nothing worse then being at a crossing then when they are switching🤣😂. That 2nd train the engine was working hard, i heard it coming 💪 that was a good train. I wish the whistle was louder on that steam train. Great video. It's different not seeing csx or ns. Thanks for the video Brian stay well roll on

Very true! I was glad that I didn't park on the other side. My truck was there on the other side before the train came and I moved it just in case that happened. The steam engine has an odd sounding whistle. It sounds like a dinosaur from Jurassic Park. Thanks again for the gas fund Mark! I really appreciate it and put it in the tank. Thanks again!

Hey, Jaw Tooth! Good video, Brian! I was awestruck at all the CP cars on that train at Nahant! That was a lot of scrap and empty steel cars! Going to one mill? That train with one unit had 177 cars; I’m assuming they were all empty. It looked suspiciously like it could have been a storage train. I’m hoping not. There seemed to be a lot of rust on the trucks, instead of road grime, like on cars in regular service. I know business is down and a lot of cars are being stored around the country. Especially two bay CH’s that were in sand service. My son lives in New Castle, IN. The short line that serves it has miles of Railbox box cars stored. Most of them are of the high cube variety, which are newer cars than the regular type that was built in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s. That blew my mind! We were driving out of New Castle towards the south east. I saw them for myself. I thought they would never stop! They have stored auto racks, there, also. I haven’t seen them, lately. Great footage of the steamer, also! And the pets! Thanks again, for the video!

Great videos as always. Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸And that blue car annoys me every time 😂
