Definitely a cool thing to see, kicking cars. That’s gotta be hard on couplers though, some of them were pretty hard slams. Had the GP38 duo switching and 2 AC44CW’s, one of which a YN2. This is a great stop Pappy👍🏼😎🇺🇸

It's crazy how they slam railcars together like that. You'd think they'd be careful especially with chemical tankers.

Seems like it's so hard on the couplers, like that would contribute to them breaking more often, appreciate you watching. Oh and I like your channel logo 👍😀

Great video Pappy. Brings back memories of working in CP Muskego Yard in Milwaukee Wisconsin where they would be doing this. When I was track inspector I would walk each track once a month and all of the sudden a huge bang when the cars would hit the other ones and boy that would get your attention. Have a to be fully alert when working in yards like this. Have a wonderful rest of your Friday.(Steve)

The tank cars were kicked and coupled at just about the optimal speed; enough speed to get a good couple but not too fast which might damage the cars and the lading.

What is giving the cars a kick to get them started?

@TriGogglin

Kicking cars is a way to build trains with out a hump yard. Pull the coupler, move the train a bit and stop, the cars roll on their own and they trow the switch on what train they want it to go to. Then slam into them to stop. It's fun to watch.. thanks for watching

So how do they do it? Do they uncouple the train cars they want to be moved and switch the tracks before going into reverse then slow down and stop with the independent brake so the train cars keep moving on their own?
