Re: April Photo of the Month

I forget which junction this is in Chicago (near Dolton Jct), but all of these cantilevers are still manually controlled (as Of 2009) from the signal tower.

Re: July Train Photo of the Month

Notice how the headlights are not on. Yep these are DP Units on a BNSF container train going through Galesburg IL on the BNSF Chillicothe Sub.

Re: July Photo of the Month !!SPECIAL EVENT!!

All of your questions make sense, but I probably should of told you guys that UP added the Cantilevers in 1998. Before that, the crossing only had the gates.

Re: Locations Of ACTIVE Safetran Type 1 E-Bells

I have never heard a Safetran Type One In real life.. only those in TrainmanKnight's videos. I wouldn't hate E-Bells so much if Safetran would of never changed their sound.

Re: Train Photo Of the Month: February

Taken a couple of years ago, here we have a NS manifest going through Griggsville IL with a NS primer, a BNSF pumpkin and a SOO 6057. My Dad and I were going to Missouri, and we have only been stopped a couple times at Griggsville. What a surprise this was!
