Nice catch Eddie , I'm starting to think one of your prerequisites for taking jobs is they need to be by tracks. 👍👍

@@TwistedMacGyversTrains hey there Frank, it was a treat to catch being I don’t see NS too often. This is the Norfolk Southern Monogahela Subdivision, lots and lots of big coal drags go through here. Definitely perfect timing today!

Not much breathing room on that property line! Nice catch on the coal empties double, that's a cool spot. It likely gets a pair of SD70ACU manned helpers when it's loaded!

Yeah not much room at all, this goes through Monogahela or Mon City as some people call it, this is about midtown at the First Baptist Church. Them double mids were awesome, always treat seeing big power💪🏼. The SD70ACU is also a duo set on Horseshoe Curve, manned helpers I mean. The ACU’s are all ex SD90MAC’s, would’ve love to have seen one of them 6,000hp 90MAC’s pulling. Appreciate you watching, have a great upcoming weekend 👍🏼😎🇺🇸

Apparently the church has extra guardian angels to keep the coal trains on the tracks. A doubler is indeed a sight to see we get a few rare ones into Milwaukee where they get split for two destinations. Also it was unique the mix of Top Gons. Some with the air activated bottom dumps and then a bunch of conventional three bay bottom dumps that don't appear to have rotary capabilities. A great catch for the day

@@paulbergen9114 yeah the church is mighty close to the tracks, I’ve been inside when one rolls by, you can definitely feel it, especially if it’s a loaded coal. Top Gon I haven’t seen them in awhile, I used to see whole coal trains of nothing but Top Gon hoppers. These hoppers have a variety of different dumping setups, not sure if any of these are rotary couplers. Usually on the loaded NS coals they will have triple mids or double mids and one end DP, it’s definitely a sight to see, hear, feel and smell. Have a great weekend Paul, I appreciate your comments 👍🏼🇺🇸😎
