The rhythmic sound that you hear is actually a small flat spot on one of the locomotive front truck wheels. Such flat spots are undesirable but are permitted when they are within the acceptable norms during inspection by the crews from the Motive Power and Car Department of a Railway. 2017/09/05.

Amazed at how quick the ride is. It took me 4 days to hitchhike from Saginaw.

As,a child my father worked for Southern Pacific on the Oregon coast .One of his jobs was to run in front of the trains and open three treaties .I got to ride in a few high hoods lots of SD- 40 -2 , I even got to ride in a few cabooses .crew change was always at the coos bay depot so it was always,easy to ask the engineer. I have just recently realized how lucky I was.

Up in the top left side Delay In Block had heir logo up there. A real treat i spent a"FEW" hours or shifts for Conrail with similar power! Great job guys!

Mesmerizing! (fantastic at 1.75X playback) I was hooked as a child and am now 73! Great vid & audio! DiB Rules! Thanks!

Hey I can see my house from here! Too bad I wasn't home at the time. It is so nice to see the shiny blue locos which are a big improvement over the gray ghost and old CSX equipment I used to see.

Maybe you could come to Minnesota sometime. There's some extremely rare trains up there, like Yellowbonnets, Warbonnets with their original horns, BN SD40-2s (tons of those), SD75s, SD60M's, Oakway SD60's in storage in the Minnesota Commercial yard, the last two RS27's in existence, and the list just goes on. I'm not joking, I'm being completely honest.

Love that Canadian horn!!!!!!! Yeah that flat spot is becoming more noticeable

Good video but the general performance of the Railway reflects the pitiful state of the Plant. I suspect that the majority of the Ties are approaching the end of their service life and hence, the track is deemed to be a Class 3 at best. The resulting mediocre performance is certainly not how the Railways are going to attract lucrative business or improve their economic viability through more efficient use of their assets and personnel!!!! One can only imagine how much better the Plant would be if Society spent just a fraction it did on one of the highway overpasses shown. This is very sad to see, as this line has a huge potential and it certainly displayed better performance in the days of the Pere Marquette Railway, as the presence of high speed turnouts illustrates. 2017/09/05.

True, but once out of the yard, the speed is dictated by the permissible limits. These are in the time table and reflect the general state of repair of the plant. It is probably fair to say that in the days of the Pere Marquette Railway, this was most likely 60 MPH trackage. 2017/09/05.

Then just past Perkins you have the Hoyt Siding to the right....CM Conector (Old GTW Diamond) . and the Port Huron Sub (Left) now its 10 Mph untill your entire train is past the Port Huron Sub Frog. From there its 25 Mph (Unless a Slow Order) all the Way to Flint untill Francis Rd. where ya get ahold of the RN (CSXT) Dispatcher. Then down to Mt Morris where you stop to get RN's Permission into the Mt. Morris Siding. I dobt that the Track speed was ever 60 MPH!!! It was only 45 when i worked for the CSXT.
