Here are some short train vids found on Google which I thought might be interesting:
BNSF Grain Train.
BNSF-Mukilteo Train crossings.
This last one is the main reason for this posting. Either this is a clever fake or the man is absolutely insane. Don’t watch if you have a heart problem.
Fast Euro Freight.
If you watch the Fast Euro Freight very carefully, the loco actually clips him and watch him hobble off, but then i’ve always said the French are insane lol
Eastside, VERY, VERY cool videos, hope to see more of them on this forum. Many thanks.
what in the world is that Amtrak thing that he videod?
Apparently the url for “Grain Train” in my first posting has gone out of scope. Here’s the new one:
BNSF Grain Train.
BTW, forgot to ask, anyone know what those peculiar looking cars with the tall sides and white angled roofs at the extreme right of view of “Mukliteo Train” are?
The Amtrak train was a Spanish built “Talgo” set with a non powered converted F40PH on the lead and a F59PHI pushing.
And you wonder why Crews look a people along the right of way suspiciously.
Yet another Darwin award nominee! I know a number of train service people and, yes they do get sorta nervous with all the “Einsteins” wandering around the rights of way!
I’ve never actually seen the Amtrak Talgo cars before. Thank you, that was awesome to see. I was wonder what exactly that train was, because I didn’t know that Amtrak used them anymore, or why they had not used them…But they still do apparantly.
Does Amtrak use the Talgo cars on their Eastern lines?
The only place Amtrak runs Talgo trains, is in the Northwest,between Eugene and Portland,OR,Seattle WA,and Vancouver BC.

IN that first video I watched there were some cars sitting on a side track that kinda looked. Like a frieght car but with a slopped roof and when I saw those I was really puzzled can anyone tell me what those are pleaseeeeee.
