Western Railroad Discussion > 4x2x1 stacks in peach springs (2 videos)Date: 02/20/20 11:09 4x2x1 stacks in peach springs (2 videos) Author: goneon66 i caught this HUGE 4x2x1 stack train this morning at the hackberry rd. crossing and again at the curve leading into the w/end of crozier canyon but the videos were too long to post here on t/o's.
i then drove e/b ahead of the train where i saw this same huge beast at w/peach springs. this is the 1st of 2 videos of this train. in this first video, the train is exiting a canyon going through w/peach springs. the train then makes a stop due to PTC issues with the mid-train dpu's almost in front of me. this worked out good so that i could take 2 videos of the train without any editing. continued.........

the scenery from truxton through peach springs and into seligman is my favorite along rt. 66.......... 66 You must be a registered subscriber to watch videos. Join Today!

I love hearing EMDs in the mix, it breaks up the normalcy. I seen your train today, early morning for sure. About two hours ago, watched another WB 12k zoom by. The last motor at the rear is a Crean n Green MAC--that motor roared by and sounded like a damn Star Wars TIE Fighter shaggin' ass through the galaxy.

there used to see a LOT of antelope in the area of cherokee too. ah man, i missed that 12K with the mac. yea, a mac in run 8 lugging loads up a hill sounds great.......... 66 Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 02/20/20 17:30 by goneon66. |
