Thank you Roy; I appreciate that! It’s a pleasure
I filmed the O-GLSE 25 in Tacoma the next day. Cool to see where it originated
Very cool video. Interesting to see a branch with that much activity.
Arlington and that entire area is a great place to live. Nice train action by a first class company...U.P......thanks for video.

Thanks a lot! Also for the PSAP info. I didn’t realize they ran there too!
I always enjoy your videos. Thanks.
most excellent!
Fun ! Not, but someone has to do it ..Waved @ UP south @ Crescent day before yesterday ! they honked beside the Standard summit Horn .Then on my way to Sisters, I saw and waved at BNSF S.
The Seattle trains are daily. But there's also a few trains that come off the PSAP once or twice a week 😊
Great video! If it can be placed in "layman's language" I would like a video on Distributive Power! A look inside at Waste Management (if they would allow) handling the unloading of the containers/cars would be interesting too! Thanks.
Once more I'm impressed with your commentary AND videography! And I half expected one of the head-end crew to lean out of the window and holler, "Yo, Jeremy!" Thanks again for the wonderful work.

Great vid as always, but an ignoble job for a train. Didn't know Seattle dumped their garbage in Oregon. In 93 I had a sales route that included rural central Oregon. With time to kill one afternoon I drove out to Condon. Just in time to see the stacks of railroad ties from the removal of that line.
excellent videos - ive referred this one to the Chehalis railfan camera group to show where our garbage loads go!!

Great video all-around and very informative! Where did you park for that tunnel shot? Shoulder of I-84? I've been looking there on Google Maps for my own trip out there next summer and that's the best I can figure.

Thanks! In addition to the shoulder is a pull out area off the road. Just dirt. It’s good enough. Hope your trip is fun!

Absolutely love the video! Keep up the great work! I am working on making a model of UP’s SEGL and GLSE. Proving very hard to find HO scale containers that look right. Do you know the lengths of the containers?

That is great to hear! I wondered what it would take to model one of these trains too. Not sure if they’re 48’, 53’ but thinking something in that range. Once the correct length container is found it shouldn’t be hard though. Spray paint green or gray and cover the top with a tarp. A few added details and it’s done! Singles on articulated cars and doubles on single wells…voila!

The BNSF trash trains from the Puget Sound area run to Roosevelt, WA. Roosevelt is located just north of the Columbia River in the same general region.
Enjoy your videos! You have a great speaking voice. Have you ever considered voice over work? My guess is you are an engineer. How often do you operate the same locomotives? And do you have a favorite locomotive? With all the foreign power, do railroads have proprietary software? If so, how do they implement that in foreign power? Keep up the great work!!

Can you explain why trash is transported by rail I never seen trash rail cars in California
@pacificrailproductions5281

It’s the only reasonable way to transport thousands of tons of trash a long distance affordably. In the northwest, this has been a practice that works to take trash to a processing area far from the inner city.
Disappointed that the United States is such a Disposable Nation. We Buy a Lot of Cheap Junk from Overseas and it’s Easier/Cheaper to Dispose of, than Repair. 🤪👎
This one is boring.
