    The R+L trailer at 6:34 is rather unusual. I'm a driver for them, and we don't run much intermodal, although that is starting to change. I've been getting several container trailers lately, mostly from Chicago to Youngstown. I've also been seeing more and more of our containers on trains running the Fort Wayne line in Ohio.

    Car & engines being carried in "099 Hi-Wide Special" starting at 11:30 must be really hosed if they can't even be pulled along the track. Excellent training. Cheers!

    Why are there so many trains with helpers? I don't know where this is located exactly... are there many hills to climb? Or are those trains very heavy? Everything looks as usual as it can be - except for the many working horses at the train rear ends. Well, whatever reason causes this.. I really love locomotives as pushers

    This is Cresson PA. East of here is Altoona, Harrisburg, and Philadelphia. Altoona is where NS' heavy repair shops are (formerly PRR/PC/Conrail). Altoona starts the real climb up the east face of the Allegheny mountains. This point is slightly west of the top of the grade down to Altoona. To the west, lies Johnstown, Pittsburgh, and points west. This is also a downgrade mainly between here and Johnstown. Depending on the train, helpers are needed on the ascent, and sometimes the descent down the other side either way. There is an engine serving facility visible when the first train passes through. Helpers are fueled and serviced here. It is also the start of a branch operated by R.J. Corman serving some of the coal mines in the area.

    This subject isn't "Wrecked Locomotives at Cresson". If it were, you'd have a valid complaint. The subject is "NS Pittsburgh Line Trains at Cresson" and the note about the wrecked locomotives is there to let a viewer know such an item is included in the video, but not the primary subject/purpose of the video, which again is NS trains at Cresson, PA.

    The title and description combined describe exactly what is included in the video. There is nothing misleading whatsoever. Why wouldn't a unique move/locomotive be listed in the title to show that there is something unique included in the video? Again, the subject wasn't "Wrecked Locomotives at Cresson", which would be misleading if other stuff that wasn't that were included. How would you title it?
