Hi all! Just got a site where I can finally post my railfanning videos. I’m glad I can finally share the two awesome vids of Pere Marquette 2-8-4 #1225 back in December. There’s a few other vids as well. I’ll be adding more in the next few days. Enjoy![:D][8D] www.dailymotion.com/Conrail_Jon

Thanks for posting the video(s). I really enjoyed the Berk. Very nice. Sad to see several klutzes playing chicken with the loco.

Also, “rolling through Michigan” on the Pere Marquette through Bangor and Grand Junction is my second favorite train ride. As a Pennsy type, you can probably guess my first. [^]

Jon,

Thanks for sharing these incredible videos. You couldn’t wipe the grin of my face when I was watching them. Especially the Pere Marquette 1225 pulling out. And There is nothing like the rumble of a large diesel!

One comment: Am I alone, or was anyone else not amazed at the number of cars that continued to cross the tracks (in one of the Pere Marquette videos) well after the signals were flashing and ringing. It’s a miracle mankind has survived so long.

Now that’s good stuff! Thanks for sharing!

You’re absolutely right. I just stood there dumbfounded as all those cars went over the tracks. Oh well. That’s what happens when there’s no gates, I’m afraid.

Ok everybody, new vids! Caught an ex Conrail SD40-2 screaming by and a CSX SD40-2 drifting into town. Also adding a video of a GP38-2 and B30-7 drone switching. Enjoy! www.dailymotion.com/Conrail_Jon
