Danny, I'm a conductor with CSX in NE Ohio. Home terminal is QD 173. The corona virus shut down so many factories, That is what killed our shipping. Thank you for these sir. Keep them coming!

Railfanning is the perfect hobby for quarantine: isolate yourself next to a railroad crossing in the middle nowhere, and you're all set! Great video as always!

I bet I have seen 99% or more of you videos and love them.

Did NOT expect to see you here at all! Deeeeeeeeeecent

Excellent video! From one KZreadr to another, I must say that I have learned a lot from your videos! I hope all the workers / companies in the railroad industry appreciate your hard work in putting out accurate, educational, and entertaining videos.

Love your videos.

Thank Dan- I like learning all the little known facts that you " teach " us.

I guess you could call that a "jack of all trains, master of none"? Really interesting consist, nice video as always.

I have been following your account for 2 ½ years now, and I have to thank you for your content. Coming from a very different railroading background (I work as a locomotive engineer in Italy), I found your videos very informative. Thank you from KP (kilometer-post) 147.48 (Verona Porta Nuova station) along the Milan-Venice railway line.

I sit in front of the PC, play the video and watch and learn. I'm glad I discovered this channel. greetings from Chile

Thank you Danny. You are a ray of sunshine during these dreary times. I really enjoy the way you incorporate the drone video into the show.

I’m not seeing much interaction in comments but ...I enjoy the story. Danny knows so much inside information. Sad to see the Tropicana cars cluttered up with spray paint.

Gotta be said, that was a superb bit of shunting, especially with the length. A fantastic crew.

I know it's hard that go out and visit your friends I'm glad we can watch you

I liked that one. A little of the conductor's job this time. Interesting.

Appreciate the mix of drone and line side shots! Excellent and informative narration and editing. As a former resident of North Port, makes me happy to stay plugged in to SW FL rail activity. Thanks for taking all the time and trouble to create your videos and then to share them with us!

Glad you enjoyed it!

It's kinda amazing with trains getting longer & longer that they don't come up with a way to carry an ATV or something for the conductor.

Tropicana is shipping more juice then ever, but largely from the greatly expanded Ft. Pierce plant, which sends cars north to Jacksonville on the FEC, where they join up with CSX. Large number of oranges processed at the East coast plant are from S. America, this due to urban expansion into the groves and various Florida citrus diseases.

Hard to believe that just two locomotives pulled that way cars without being in full "Notch 8" and a strained motor. Well done and I must complement your knowledge on the different rules of the FRA.

You have the best narration of any railroad channel I have watched.

I've been looking for videos like these for a few years. I'm glad the mystical algorithm finally recommended you to me!

Tropicana needs to start sponsoring your videos as I now purchase their orange juice on a regular basis from seeing them go by on your channel. Calgary Alberta here.

Thanks, Danny; no one does it better. So nice now to have some fresh content. Be safe!

I sometimes wonder why I watch these RR videos but given my childhood back in the late forties and early fifties, steam engines were still in use. I am from coal country in NE PA (Shamokin) where hard coal is still king and it is that coal hauling, by large trains powered by up to five engines with three in front and two pushing on the back, that got me addicted to trains. We could hear them coming on the Sunbury line a mile away and when they finally came into view less than fifty feet from me, I think my eyes were as big as the drivers wheels on the train! What a sound they made but sadly, in all the years that have passed, I have not been close to a steam engine pulling a hard load again. Well that's another one for the bucket list but at my age, the bucket seems to have a hole in it:) BTW, I have been to Steam Town in Scranton, PA and it's worth the visit! They even have a Big Boy parked there....

3:22 "And there's Danny…" Be Surprised if ANYONE caught that.

Hard at age 70 to believe that here I sit at milepost ll4 of Amtrak's Empire Service line (CSX for freight), trying to hear "And there's Danny" at 3:22 on a cheapie phone. Okay, I guess I hear it. Maybe someone can tell me about the previous phrase. Is it "We got limping on the bottom"??? Or maybe "leaking"??? The best of us here in the Kearny Metropolitan Area actually love and appreciate this southeastern linguistic conspiracy to mystify us. After all we're the ones getting the orange juice. Fabulous video! I still have some sort of cousins in Piedmont region NC and northeastern Georgia, maybe Toccoa, btw. Thanks again!

Absolutely Nothing Better than a Monster Mega Train. 👍 You do a Great job, Danny! 👍

Miss you Danny!! we love you chap

Glad you comment on what the conducter is doing and what the purpose is to some of the actions taken. Gives a layman much better understanding.

This was tremendous!! The only video I ever posted was last year when the Union Pacific Big Boy went through Andover, Minnesota. Your knowledge is tremendous. Thanks for the post. Best videos out there!!

Awesome job as usual Danny. I, too, am one of those guys that has watched all of your old videos. As a matter of fact, I was watching some old S.A.L. history videos and I heard an old familar voice. Checked the credits, and laughed to my self. Thanks for keeping us entertained.

No, sorry, I don't. But it was something like Seaboard Air Line Vol#1. Hope tha helps.

Love the video. Brings back good memories for an ex southern pacific hoghead who misses doing exactly what's in your video. Thank you!

To me, freight trains are usually boring unless they have a story behind them. Thank you, Danny, for giving us the stories behind today's freight trains.

Great video as usual Danny. The only thing that would make it better for me, would be, seeing Chessie and Seaboard power on the lead end. 👍🇺🇸

Great video and catch! Always neat seeing an intermodal train combined with other traffic like this, especially with a mixed freight like this.

Thank you for the long train out of Tampa. I found your videos about a month ago and you sir are THE BEST . I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Keep on keeping on. I have learned a lot from you. Thanks again from the Upstate of South Carolina. 🚆

@@distantsignal LOL, not from New York. The upstate of South Carolina is a term I heard when I moved from Texas. It's all the counties that boarder NC. 😊

I only hope you understand how much of an inspiration you are to fellow railfans everywhere! You're humble, well informed, equipped and genuinely love what you do.

Thanks for getting out and photographing some train action. More to look at while sitting at home. I imagine you didn't have too many social distancing complaints from the residents of the cemetery.

Thank You for going out and sharing your time and videos with all of us, after all, you are social distancing, even if you're not at home !

Danny keep up the good work I enjoy all your videos and I'm going to pass this on to a friend of mine on Friday when I see him he's going to like watching your videos he is a real fan just like me you keep up the good work stay safe may the Lord's blessings be with you may the good Lord take a liking to you can you be safe take care for now and keep up the good work I enjoy your videos

I get excited every time I see videos of my home town. Thanks for the video.

Hi Dan. Thanks for talking the time to video this train. Very interesting watching the cut 👍🏻 Take care buddy cheers Stevie 😎🇬🇧

Thanks for the great video and drone shots Danny. I always look forward to them, especially now being stuck at home. If you get locked up while sneaking out to make your fans another video, let us know, a bunch of us will get together and throw your bail. Stay safe, we want you around for a long time. Don in nh.

Agree about Tropicana. Tropicana Grovestand w/pulp has been my favorite orange juice for the last 25 years. I buy the gallon. Dont care about the price. Great video as usual.

Hello again Danny, while working a swing shift off the extra board at Yeoman, we used to build a big train similar to the one on this video. It required a crew on both ends of track 2, and a full eight hours to complete. Lots of down time waiting for our turn to move. Not a bad shift, time for supper cooked on a little grill the conductor built. Fun times.

Like the videos. My father worked out of Wildwood. He was there when it was Seaboard. He retired in 1993 after 45 years.

Greetings from the UK! Really enjoy your videos. They are a delight to watch; excellent filming, narration, production and editing - love the way you include drone and lineside camera cuts together. Very slick! Thanks for breaking lockdown rules to bring us this one. Looking forward to seeing some more from you, whenever that will be. Stay safe, Mr Harmon. Oh, and please wear your seatbelt when you are chasing...!

I have watched every one of your videos and always so excited when you post a new one!

Amazing video Danny, stay safe down there! You always do a great job in all your videos. Can't wait to see more soon.

I cannot thank you enough Danny for you insight, camera footage and just plain train information for us train enthusiasts. You're a reach champ. But put your mask on brother!! We care about your health!!

So glad to see a new video from you Danny! I had been wondering and considering the times hoping for the best for you and your family.

Always a great day when you drop another video, Danny! Great as always!!

I needed this Danny, thanks for posting this. Also always exciting to see another video from you

Another great video. It was interesting watching the train being assembled.

Nice show,we need to take our mind off of these times,thanks !

Great video, always a great watch . have recommended your channel to all my friends.

Thanks Danny always look forward to your videos especially in these times.

Thanks for that tidbit of knowledge concerning engineers and brakeman sides of a train.

Thanks for the video Danny! Very interesting catch!!!

Danny. You are doing a great job. There are something I don't quite understand. The one is how to identify which is Main one and two. The other is north south east west bound. Thank you for you hard work. This is Robert over and out.

Thanks for getting out there, Danny!

Excellent as always!

This is top quality content. Danny, you’re amazing. Thank you. Great story on this one! Be safe!

I love when you upload videos! I have watched almost all of your videos. they're just a really nice and inviting way to railfan during corona!

Thanks Danny, I have been binge watching these videos ever since i watched the first one, great content, cheers, Alan, from Australia.

Always enjoy your posts Danny, as you're so informative. Really like posts on switching and signal lights. Cheers from New Zealand.

Great video! You got me started into flying drones to get some real different shots. Keep up the great work

Danny, this is a really enjoyable video Great catch to get this unique train and wonderful drone shots in the yard to help understand what was going on. Thanks!

Glad you're doing well through all of this!

Hi Danny. Great video especially showing some of the ups and downs of a Conductor. Keep up the good work during this crazy lockdown. Thanks.

Love the videos! Arizona native who loves the Flagstaff Depot love cams. I enjoy the information you provide as I am learning so much

Hey Danny stay safe out there. Thanks for the new video. You need to keep at least 6 feet from a moving train or you stand the chance of catching something. Lol

Fun fact y’all he’s the narrator for all girls garage. Great show!

Great job again as usual. I really enjoy learning as you teach. Dropped everything (after watching our church) when I saw your release, looking forward to your next. Stay healthy, stay safe, and stay "distant" if you can.

Wonderful, informative video. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for all you do.

Don’t have a clue what your talking about, but love the sounds of the trains. My dad worked for southern pacific his whole life. We traveled by train a lot when I was a kid.
