Vintage Switcher Locomotives Leaving the Yard
Two Vintage diesel locomotives for the Reading & Northern Railroad are departing the Norfolk Southern train yard with their freight. The two switcher (pup locomotives) certainly do a good job at light work jobs like this. It was also nice to see my friend Engineer Breezy at the controls this day.

Southbound NS train with a DPU & nice consist
This train engineer gave us some horn action & a friendly wave.
Today I filmed Norfolk Southern's southbound train 11z heading towards Virginia. It had two lead units, a DPU and a really nice consist of mixed freight. This was filmed at one of my favorite crossings for NS, which is Law street in Pittston. Can you count how many cars there are in total including the locomotives?
Early Preview:
I purchased a new piece of equipment for the channel and figured this would be the perfect location to give it a proper test. I have some ideas with this item and should make for some more interesting content. I'll share a couple more photos later today.
Ohio & PA Rail Action in the Rain
Facebook Exclusive Video:
While I was in Ohio for the Christmas Story House, we took a drive to a nearby park that offered views of an active and abandoned railroad bridge. Unfortunately it was raining, but we found cover and was able to capture a train passing over the active bridge. Later, when we were waiting for the bus in Pittsburgh, we caught another train passing slowly in front of us. I hope to return to Ohio sometime in the future to explore more of what it has to offer.
Scouting Location (behind the scenes)
Behind the scenes:
I made a short video taking you behind the scenes as I headed out to scout a location. Not all tips or info work out, but it's still worth trying.
Early Preview:
Just a few days ago I crossed off yet another Bucket List item. This item is something I've wanted to do for a long time and it finally happened. Can you guess what it is??? I had the opportunity to ride inside of a Locomotive! Yes, you read that correctly... Did you know that anyone can do it? For just $50 dollars, you can also do this Bucket List item. I also took a second train ride inside a beautiful coach car to show the Autumn colors. These will be two separate videos, but the Locomotive ride comes out this Wednesday! More photos in the comments!
This video is for all of you, my Facebook followers. This will explain a recent change I made and those of you who do follow me on here will benefit from the new change.
Hope everyone is enjoying the last few hours of their weekend. I had an incredible 5 day trip last week and I can't wait to edit and show you what I was up to. I have a lot of work ahead of me, but for now, here's a colorful clip from one location.
