The cat is a railbuff.

Something about those maroon colored BNSF grain cars. They look so clean.

Its music to my ears hearing those G Es purr like a cat !!!

Back in March I traveled with my daughter and granddaughter to the Grand Canyon. Out route took us through Albuquerque and from there westward on IH 40 to Williams, AZ. We paralleled the BNSF transcon most of the way. I'd never seen such a densely traveled corridor in all my life - one train after another after another, with at least two three-way meets before the sun set on us. After the Grand Canyon adventure, we decided to visit Sedona which added a whole day delay to our return trip, so we had to stay overnight in Flagstaff. I secretly managed to ferret out a hotel directly across from the Seligman Sub double main on the east side of town. Unfortunately, my daughter beat me to the office and we ended up with a room not facing the tracks, but we could hear them ... one after another. What was cool was I pulled up the Virtual Railfan channel for Flagstaff, and amazed my granddaughter by being able to predict when an eastbound would roll by the hotel (after seeing it on the passenger station camera two miles to our west). Similarly, we'd hear westbounds go by and then watch them show up on camera two minutes later.

The sound of all that jointed rail is great. Pretty unique seeing these operations out west being from PA.

8:15 look at those gas prices!

So much of a history lesson, flat out some of the best of a short film documentary and some awesome videos, beautiful scenery

Thanks this. Your historical information, the identification of engines etc AND your photgraphy including zooming out to maintain the full train as long as possible is really appreciated.

FWIW, I really miss your Live events! This is a great video!

One another amazing trainvideo from you. Its nearly possible to understand that they where abel to built railroad tracks in that wild and sometimes impossible terrain. Like arizona. Thank you from Sweden.

Awesome video! I use to work for Phelps Dodge High Performance Conductors in South Carolina and they gave us these books that was about 2 inches thick. The book talked about the history of copper mining. There was some great photos of the Morenci mine In that book.

Those G & W "Reese's Cups" scheme really stands out. Nice looking scheme.

Now that's what you call Wild West Railroading.

I love that cat 😊

Very, very nice video about the great western rr. I'm from the Belo Horizonte, Brazil and you catch very well those BNSF trains in Winslow. And the UP's SD40-2 in Moapa branch. So great your shots! Continue to Record trains more in the great West.

Just got back from Yuma... It felt like home... And those trains run 75 80 miles hr

There is a George Jones song called "Open Pit Mine" about the copper mines between Clifton and Morenci Arizona.

Out west quite different from here in Ohio. Beautiful country.

One of your best yet! Well done!

thank you, great video. I am a lover of History, great. But of course LOVE TRAINS!

Your videos are always on point. Fantastic!

I love your films,they are a fascinating insight into US railroading. As a Brit (Limey lol) the way Americans transport freight is amazing,from short lines to class one railroads it is great to watch. Keep up the good work.

I use to work at the ASARCO Mission Mine and many times I would go up to Ray Mine and see the CBRY running, my father also met Jake Jacobson and he is a very nice guy, gave him a tour of the shops.

Seeing all these pictures of that you show on here, makes me want to cry . I am a travel photographer and i would love to be able to go see these places. I had to stop my photography for a little while but i hope to be able to start it back in a couple of years.

Buenisimos tus videos,con historia y buen profesionalismo ...un like y suscrito ....Gracias por tu esfuerzo ..te lo dice un fanatico de los trenes ..

Always interesting to see these documentaries about smaller railroads. Accidentally unsubbed earlier, but have resubbed a minute or two ago. Keep 'em comin'. Great stuff!

Breathe taking aerial views of the desert, thanks for your perseverance in the desert DIPB. 😎👌👍

Great video Drayton!

Wonderfully interesting and excellent quality video thank you so much for taking the time to make this and capture this piece of history.

Your. productions are the best.!, It takes a lot of skill. from a engineer to be on the. grades you are showinLast year visiting in-laws going up to the white mountains in Arizona drove thru a copper mining town. seeing. a lot large. copper. finish ignots Any way keep. the great work

Shame the mine tracks aren’t still electrified on that first railroad; electrics make great locos for tackling steep grades.

Today, I bet you can see, and maybe even use, that railroad that was under Lake Mead.

Great video.

I can remember me an my wife were driving up to see inlaws in the White mountains. We passed thru a town that was mining copper. I can remember seeing a huge peice on semi trailer being moved it was incredible to see!

Aware. Rest in peace brotha.

Great shots of these railroads. The sound seems a bit "off". Any reason for this?

So dry that people "cool" their homes with swamp coolers.

I did some spellings wrong,hope you understand me.

Where is that? They have cheap gas! 😁🌵

gas there has risen I assume

Sure Power Desert Engines.
