Wow awesome job 👍

Shoo-Fly pie and apple pan dowdy! STN probably stands for Steelton, Pa where they still do make rail.

ONCE AGAIN ANOTHER EXCELLENT VIDEO FROM "MR. SHO-FLY"

Mr. JT you have a great personality, you are fun, and your videos - well, super! Take care of yourself, be safe, and don't let the cops hassle you - you make great videos.

Your videos make one feel "at home": and Norfie + Chessie (et al) are the dessert.

Now that was a train!~A couple of miles of freight with a bunch of horsepower - very cool! And another train with a DPU. They emptied the yards as you say :)

I think the first train was a tanker train and a grain train tracked together to save on crews ? Sign of the times in this now uncertain world we have !! Still having fun and great videos from the shoo-fly -all courtesy of Jawtooth !! Regards

Some good shoo fly action. Thanks for sharing!

Great job they almost completed so much safer for everyone 👏...enjoy weekend JT....what a grunt by dpu s 😀

That seems like a hot line. I suppose they will need to shut it down for a day or two just to re-connect the new section. Sure getting close to that day!

Shouldn't take that long. In the UK, they'd do the reconnection overnight and the trains the next day would be going straight through. The only reason to take longer would be if they don't care about having the line out of action.

Great catch’s jaw and third and like the new update I can’t wait for it to be finished

Great excellent video, mr Jaw Tooth. Thanks for the update about the shoo-fly. But much wind is blowing a dust devil. See in the beginning of this video. When the tankrailcars/grainrailcars passing you see the dustdevil stronger. Nice to see. The shoo-fly is ready for use through NS about two weeks i guess. Next video over the shoo-fly when he is ready? Greet from Zandvoort the Netherlands.

Love seeing such length of the train.

Great railfan video. Love the fast NS tank/grain big train on the Soo Fly. Also loved the local commentary, rail info (got to research “STN), and the construction tour. Great NS train #2 with 2 lead units and a single DPU. Your “Emptying the yard” comment was right on. Thank you for your patience to capture the second train.

The wind raises a lot of dust in the area where the new track begins, added to that linked to the passage of the high-speed train. It may well be the wind that precedes the storm if we observe the large cauliflower-shaped clouds in the sky. Beautiful pictures for sure!

Watching a KZread with your transportation board where a yard master was stating that they maybe saving on crews, but it’s taking three times as long when the train gets to a yard, as they have to split the consist over three tracks just to fit the yard. Following trains have to wait causing the crew to run out of hours, also reducing availability of locos.

@2themoon863

and thst is because the yard tracks aren't as long as the trains are?

@2themoon863

2 жыл бұрын

You qoukd think given the longer trains we are seeing--two to three miles even with distributed power-that adding a caboose with a rear conductor might make some sense. Why on earth does a rail company have to make a conductor go back 1-2 miles, set a switch or something, then force them to either walk or catch a ride back to the front of the train…where a rear conductor working out of a caboose could do that and seemingly save time, by not having to do 1-2 miles to a switch and back?

IIRC, the new bridge they built has space for a siding. I wonder if they will build a siding there in the future. I doubt it, since every train you’ve shown us here is VERY long, but it’s interesting to think about. Great video, as always.

@JawTooth

Jt's got a groupie! Love the shoo-fly. But I'm not seeing the flies unless it's the flying trains. I would think the DPUs push against the front, maybe 5-10%, of the train which would make them work harder.

Of course not, because it's working, shoo-ing away the flies.

Quite possible that within a month this will be the straight as an arrow. Manyof the supplies that were up there are now installed and lots of construction equipment removed. That first train had an odd mix of tank cars but the bulk appeared to be empty ethanol cars while the covered hoppers had numerous ADM marks. Both are probably bound for the Decatur IL area and hence travel together. The shoo fly with ice & snow than numbing cold. Recently pouring rain and then the winds. JT conquers it all!0
