That poor truck owner...but the steam engine footage was wonderful--especially with everybody waving at everybody else and the Amish guys in black and white. The lightning in Big Sandy was beautiful, and the car show in Revy was a blast--thanks for another great one!

6:50 "Bacon Ridge" sounds like a breakfast joint most railfans would approve of.

Steam locomotive in black & white. Nice touch! It's the little details!

There's nothing quite like a "classic" vehicle show! Brings back memories of the days gone by when I could name every car and truck make that passed by our family farm!

I thought the Mustang was cool until the 427 Corvette came into view!!!❤❤❤❤❤

The black and white footage at 8:16 is the best yet - if not for the modern string lights in the foreground, it would be perfect. Is it 2024 or the early 1900's?

Double heading 4501 with 630 brings back memories 😊

2:19 a rare treat for the grab bag, a steam double header, complete with a caboose! 😁

Cool car show‼️😊

Car show was incredible

Thank you so much for the look at those vintage vehicles. 🙂🙂👋👋👋♥

Thank you, thank you so much!! What a great Grab Bag and the ending with the car show, I was dancing along with my headphones on!! You made this old lady very happy!!

My toast was burnt to a crisp this morning, not as much as that truck 😂

The old N&W cabooses are always nice to see, filmed that one before in Roanoke, nice footage of the 630 and 4501,great video!🛤🚂

That paint job looked so real!

I love going to car shows as love older pick up trucks. the triple train catch was wow.

7:47 I’m sorry, but why does that Conrail Boxcar look so fresh!

The sped-up footage of the firefighters putting out the truck looked like something out of a 1920s or 1930s short film. All it needed was Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer" in the background.

We love Strasburg R.R. and have been on it many times . A great photo moment with the Amish Children watching the train.. love the trains, fun to watch and listen to...

Wow! Excellent catching all the trains in multiple locations, especially the CSXT1973, ChessieSystem, in Deshler, Ohio, I like them, they're awesome, I hope everybody's okay at the red pickup truck in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, @Virtual Railfan, thank you very much.

@the-terrible63 yup didn't get a great photo though which is fine as it was the third time I've seen the locomotive. She was on m631 to Avon indiana.

Not the first time I've seen a truck caught fire, even on a Nissan Titan.

At 5:22 - great to see some loads from the Paul Bunyan toothpick factory (Blue Ox brand?). Nice looking 57 Chebbies (and many other beauties) at Rev. Great grab bag! Cheers.

truth be told, I saw that IC Boxcar at my local train yard once at Flat Rock, Michigan on the CN/Former GT and boy was it cool!

It’s fun to see train action from around the country. Thanks, and keep up the good work.

It's Monday afternoon with VR Grab Bag and the great trains thank you.🚂🚃🚃🇺🇲

Wonder if Revy checked out the car show?! That effect at Paradise was cool -- black and white, old train and the (?) Amish boys watching.😊

❤AWESOME❤

great catches love it

Thats when cars and trucks had style

Nice rail and road coverage. I'm a Corvette guy so the Blue Vette caught my eye for sure.

That’s awesome 🤘🏻🤘🏻

The pick-up bed and rear end are salvageable.

I saw that Illinois Central Gulf while train watching in Tolono, Illinois. VRF should put a camera there, in my opinion.

Beautiful cars at Revelstoke. Been there done that fighting a car fire. Been a volunteer firefighter for 47 plus years. Let the young whipper snappers do it now. lol. Question.when Amtrak breaks down and a rail company hooks up to it does the Amtrak crew drive the train or does the rail company provide engineers? Always wondered. lol. Thanks. Bruce in Wv!!!

2:20 a double header

I’m kind of shocked at that IC auto box. I thought all those were gone for sure.

What do we see at 06:22? And if the loco is in plain sight at 13:55, why a 'black/white' shot at 14:09 too? Still puzzled what the background supposed to be at 14:40 Nice long train, though.

sheesh that’s a lot of wheels squealing makes you to have a bad headache afterwards

At 02:21..seeing those steam engines reminds me so much of my grandfather who worked on the railroad for forty some years..at 10:06 lets hope whoever the driver of that truck was got out of there and was uninjured. That truck is done.

LA Grange, 1 Loco and auto racks

@ 19:30.Noice rack and pinion.

How do the "odd" pieces of rail equipment,like the grain inspector car or some local grain association grain car get inspected and certified OK to operate. I assume they have to pass some sort of annual(?) safety check?

It is the responsibility of the owner/operators of said equipment just as if they are an operating railroad. If they don't have the "know how" they go thru contractors.

Probably a fuel line or oil leak. Some makes and types of vehicles are more prone than most to engine fires, but I don't think Nissan is one of them. (Looked like a Nissan badge on the tailgate as it was being hauled away.) Makes you wonder where he last had the engine serviced.

A guy 3 blocks down from me was rebuilding a Charger. Not sure what year but it was an older one. Had most of the body done and finally got the engine running right. Closed it up and locked it for the night. Left a cigarette burning in the ashtray... Raise your hand when you think you know where this is going. Long story short: The fire department had to pry the hood and both doors open. Even the taillights were melted. This truck reminds me of that.
