UNBEALIVABLE BEAUTY! I enjoy your. super professional rail videos I once worked for Conrail . I sit here drink I my coffee at 6 a m. giving thank for another day..A.C. Keep up the heartfelt prodcutions

My dad was in the coal business all his life and in 1967 took us to this area for a family vacation. He always talked about potash and loved this kind of scenery. Watching this made me feel like he was here with me. Your videos are gorgeous and tranquilizing and so informative. My husband Richard is your biggest fan and I'm your new one. Thank you so much for this excellence. ❤

It is humblig watching theese vetrans navigate theese rugged terains in. full control of getting ttheese trains from point to point could almost run their trains blindfolded with the experience they have. I say almost blindfolded because it would be. imposible to do their jobs s afely

When the first thing you see is a heritage unit. You know it's going to be a great day.

So many familiar scenes and landmarks. In winter 1978 friends and I took this same trip for train chasing. Sacramento to Provo, Mapleton, Thistle, Soldier Summit, Helper, Price, Green River. We caught the Rio Grande Zephyr a couple of days. Also spent the night at the Utah Railway yard. Alcos! We traveled and cold camped in my VW bus. See my avatar. Froze our asses, our water and had to warm the oil sump one morning with the catalytic heater before the bus would start. Our trip back to Sacramento we kept going South to the Grand Canyon. On our way back we also stopped at Tehachapi Loop for more chasing. Great Trip. Recently scanned the slides and working on a slideshow. Nice work here on your part. Thanks for sharing.

I love this type of railfanning movies. Great trains in beautiful landscape with an aweful commentary. Thank you 👍

One of my best railroad memories happened on the UTAH in Provo, and to make it sweeter, it was on National Train Day. A friend and I noticed that their was some Aussie units as well was the MK50-3s. Also was their was a Utah Railway employee. I asked first thing if we could check out the interior of the MK50-3s. He told have at it, but be aware of your surroundings. Then go and see him once we was done. So we seen the interior of 5001, 5006 & 6062, a SD50S. Also on hand was a GP38-2 in fresh paint. After we photographed the units we went in and let him know that we was fine but things just got better. He had waiting for us was a cold bottle of water and a true Utah Railway hat. No orange at all on the hat. Very awesome day. Earlier down in Ogden on display was UP 1989 and 1996!. That day will be hard to top that one off. Thanks for bringing back the memories Delay in Block!

I see a train like the one at 9:30 leaving Roper yard in SLC every now and then. Always wondered what was up with that. Now I know.

Another superb history lesson with visual accompaniment.

Drayton, very nice work! I would really like to see you do some more videos out west. Maybe go from Salt Lake to Portland and follow the Uncle Pete over the Blues Mountains in Eastern Oregon over to Hinkle yard and down the Columbia River Gorge into Portland. Then while your here in Portland you can check out SP4449 and SPS700 and some short line activity in the area.

21:07 that has to be one of the smoothest shots I've ever seen of a moving train!

Thank you for documenting the trains on this video especially the last segment on the Utah Railroad, Drayton! Your efforts at documenting current railroad history are greatly appreciated along with the historical perspective that you add to current railroad operations. I really appreciate all the effort you put into your video productions.

Great scenery and a nice mix of trains. Wife and I visited Utah in 1993 - so it was good to see some of those dramatic landscapes. You guys do a great job with content and narration.

Stunning landscapes of Utah, thanks for viewing your beautiful country & railfanning, greetings from New Zealand.😎👌👍😷

Your videos are very good. Good narration, no meaningless chatter, succinct narration, good sound recording, excellent photography, and superb subject selection. You must have talented camera, audio, an editing persons. Good clear and crisp images. I’m sure your cameras are good quality. Thanks!

MORE POWER!!! Love the Utah RR segment with all that power overcoming gravity with a heavy load. Winter scenery was great. Awesome job!! Many 👍👍👍!!!

Did I see at 53 minutes in the gorge area, 5 lead loco's and midpoint DPU's tied together totalling 6 ! Wow ! Thats guaranteed tractive force. Thats eleven loco's, and I still haven't seen the end of the train.😎👌👍😷

Always giving the best video shots and best historical informations. Drayton DIB is the best KZread railfan channel in my opinion. He covers all the US of A. No discrimination there. Keep up the work. I enjoyed DIB during the pandemic March 2020 to now. Thanks

Enjoyed your excellent video and appreciate very much you giving the viewer information about the equipment and the locations. I always enjoy watching just trains but I like to learn more about railroad operation and equipment. The scenery in Utah during the winter just makes the viewing that much better. Thanks

What a treat. Thoroughly enjoyed the locale, the topography, the photography and of course: the trains. Many thanks.

Spanish Fork canyon gets so few trains that if you see one, you need to follow it. A far cry from the SP days. Today Echo canyon is the place to see action in Utah.

Such a great video. I can feel all the love and hard work put into it. I already can't wait for the next one!!

Excellent video and I really enjoyed the segment with the Utah Railway.

The CACV in Milford, NY has an ALCo switcher numbered 3051 that also has an air whistle similar to that of Heber Valley's 1813.

wild west trains continue!

Beautiful film work, I love these. The 'snow' episode was perfect for this hot summer. Thanks.

I used to remember seeing heavy Southern Pacific freight trains. Passing through Roseburg, Oregon from 1986 to 1996. Before Union Pacific railroad bought Southern Pacific and Rio Grande.

Ouch that was a rough coupling at 42:14, can you see it reverberating through the locos! Great video, many familiar locations :)

one of the best videos i have seen. please do more

FANTASTIC video, thank you so much for sharing. Congratulations on being the best train channel on YT.

Thanks for Part 3, & history being made ! 😎👍👌

Very informative and well-put-together video I grew up next to the tracks of what was then the New Haven Railroad (Metro-North) in Old Greenwich, Ct. as a kid that was like our playground. We would do some crazy things near the tracks my parent's house was a block away from the Electrolux Factory so we used to climb around on the boxcars at the spur to the factory. On a couple of occasions climbed aboard a boxcar and then released the air brakes and ride it down the spur to the factory (stupid kid stuff). All your videos are great because of the informative narration which goes along with the video. While watching the video of the coal train in Utah I was thinking of all the folks who no longer have jobs because we are phasing out coal power. It has to be done due to the harm to our planet of global warming but unfortunately, every change affects or hurts someone. It was great to have a record of a historic coal train in action. Thanks, Chas.

Very impressed to see 11 units bring a unit coal train up the long steep grade; TS 50:55 to approx. 54:00.

If you hadn’t told me that the audio was dubbed in for the Utah Railway chase I wouldn’t of noticed. Everything matched up to good.

Great camera work and editing! Thanks.

Incredible footage! Thanks for the work you put into capturing such awesome trains!

Omg I'm so excited!!

Amazing footage! Looks like you had some great weather.

Great, great, great! I like so much Nevada and Utah. With trains is better. But I missed more shots in eastern Nevada, like Elko, Wells, Arnald Loop and Carlin. Thanks from Brazil!

Great catch😍

quality content!

That's y I love trains man.. ❤

i love this

Too bad you are not having a video in the works for the Utah Transit Authority commuter Train. The FrontRunner... (would be cool)

Man some of those UP engines have seen a lot of action. How do they get that dirty without anything thinking “hmm. Maybe this unit needs a bath break”

UP has a tendency to not wash older locomotives. To put it bluntly, if the unit is over 5 years old or it’s a heritage, they won’t wash it.

beautiful

Great video...

bellissimo video,,,complimenti

Awesome video:):):)

The voice of the detector at 8:50 sounds almost exactly the same as the old D&H ones in PA.

pretty good video!!!!!!

On the Cane Creek Sub I wouldn't drive faster than 5 mph considering the dismal state of the tracks. 15 mph seems much too fast for me. - Anyway nice film, beautiful landscape, thank you.

Its been awhile since ive heard the name "Morrison&Knudsen", they had a big shop in La grange Illinois re doing locomotives I remember seeing their brass nameplate when I worked for Conrail I n upstate N.Y. Selkirk to Newark NJ on the New Jersey Division

Making the coal cars built out of aluminum trimmed alot of weight off the train I can think ofanother car that would benifit the use of aluminum would be the the elephant in the room!, the grain hopper car. I gues their design prevented them from being chosen for the design beingthe culprit. I guess I should have Googled this to beind "fact checkrd" I get a " duhh" for not checking!!

So did you go through the feather river canyon through greenville Quincy and portola because there is a spectacular spot between Quincy and portola called spring garden and Williams loop

More western railroading Drayton!

Donner ain't shit unless it's snowing out. It stair steps, and really ain't that steep anyway. Double tracked and you rarely have to stop and start. Roseville guys are prima donnas.

That. Is how it sounded!

I am way north of you but good footage

Drayton.... You had to include the 765 "The Hill" didn't you XD

Wow

im still wondering what days the Utah railway coal trains run on, i really wanna catch it tbh

Do you know where the “Salad Shooter” originates & terminates?

Man, some of those up engines are FILTHY... I don't recall ever seeing any BNSF that bad..
