The station is so serene. One can spend lovely moments sitting in the station premises in a summer evening going through the pages of a favourite book.

Here on Brazil, the railroads infrastructure on the early 2000s was colapsing, these old SD-40 pusshing more than 200 wagons in our landscape full of hill's. It was very common to sometimes these trains lose the force on a hill and come to a complete stop, and since our city is very small, the train literaly devided the city in half, so even if we tried to make our way arround of the blocked crossing paths it would take a long long time. It was very common to see 6 SD-40 in one convoy back in the day, and one more helper at the back, this was amazing to watch but certainly not fun for the railway owners. Now days they split the trains to make it easier, only a single locomotive push 100 wagons, and now it is boring to see the train pass by because they are to small and fast... Seeing this big train in the video gives me flash backs of this era XD

First train had a K5LLA, second had a K5LAR24, which is just a K5LA with reversed #2 and #4 bells. K5LAR24s are common to units from the 90s to early 2000s on NS and CSX. Almost every SD70ACe/SD70M-2 regardless of road has a K5LLA, so that's usually an easy way to tell. There are some exceptions though, like with NS, who seems to be putting just about any horn on any locomotive recently. Good try though!

The average train is probably around a mile long. The front and rear of a train are often in different zip codes. They do vary a lot though. You can see high priority intermodal trains with only 1000 feet or so, but you can also see trains well over 10000 feet. The UP ran a 3.5 mile long test train a few years back.

You know what's always bugged me... Trains are long right? When an air line breaks or a knuckle or something, because of Murphys law it's usually near the back of the train. The conductor often has to walk miles when all is said and done round trip to and from the problem... They have plenty of space on the Loco, why not have like, a little lightweight motorscooter or little Enduro type minibike. You could have decently aggressive tires on the thing for when the train breaks down in the middle of nowhere, desert, snow, etc.

It's also because of signal coding. Two long, one short, and one long is the signal used for crossings. Drivers are allowed to either hold the horn for as long as necessary, or repeat the code multiple times. This is just so railroad workers know why a driver is using his horn and what to look out for.

Don't think the kid was with them, just a rail fan the let watch. As far as stopping was because an air line coupler came undone. The airbrake system in trains is designed so when the lines are pressurized the brakes are released. When the line becomes depresirized the brakes are applied, also the change in pressure I believe automatically kicks the whole train into emergency.

The train goes into emergency because the brake line can't be pressurized (to release the brakes) when it's open to the atmosphere.
