Coal Train Chase Ended by Ice - Frozen Trains & Horns on the Port Road and Amtrak NEC

These videos are awesome, they make me want to learn more about railroads! I’m surprised this video doesn’t have a million views already!

Excellent video

Excellent essay. Thank you!!

Nice catch and Chase was it hard to chase

How far south do electric trains go?

I thought the Amtrak trains in that area were all double headed power so the trains are push me/pull me. Imagine if they had invested in mag lev … Great video! Thanks for sharing 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Out of curiosity for I am interested in modeling parts of the Keystone Corridor. Besides local trains, how common was it for thru trains to run on the Keystone? I have noticed this(coal) and intermodal in your other videos.

Im so excited for that Port Road Video!

I caught an P42 back in 2021! In Perryville

Sadly those wires were ripped out when Conrail took over because the government was in the pockets of big oil and now they wonder why these days we are having trouble getting electrification back...because it's so expensive to do it over from scratch ...if it weren't for the government all of Pennsylvania could have been electrified today.

I'm from Pa. and not too far from Harrisburg....I appreciate you posting this footage. Very informative...

What camera do you use?

The commentary is amazing. I love this channel. I’m from the area and love learning all the history. Come up to the Scranton area!

I Really Have A Serious Crush On You Amtrak Acela Express Trains

Love the commentary and insight/info on trains and routes…

I’ve always wanted to see Amtrak and/or MARC use Port Road for DC/Baltimore to Harrisburg passenger service. It would be a beautiful route along the river and also good for regional connectivity.

Stumbled across your video here. It convinced me subscribe. Your narration is superb.

So since there’s two ways to get to the port road branch, why do some take the Enola branch out of Enola yard and why do some take the royalton branch?

Awesome video!

I believe the entire Harrisburg area has ATCS on the air
You should be able to see all rail traffic locations and the signal indications

Always a good day when there’s a new CPRP upload :)

i was a Port Road conductor, nice to see it from a different angle. Good shots.

Awesome post. Washington boro is my stomping grounds.

New subscriber! Great video!

Enjoyed the video very much! Thanks for braving the weather!

Excellent video, like the camerawork, narration and explanations.

Awesome video! Enjoyed it very well!

Great video as always! A great place to shoot on the NEC is Martin State Airport, and if you have a sturdy tripod, Edgewood, MD.

You're just knocking it out of the park lately with the quality of these videos. Great job, and thank you SO much for the content!

Interesting that including a passenger car makes the light engines a train and affects the speed limit. Is that due to the extra braking effort added by the passenger car or just some random rule?

ChainsawN&W1218, great chase on that NS coal train,and catching the signal drop,I sometimes catch some NS hopper trains 200+ cars with mid helper DPUS when I film.

What are the amber lights on the side of 7689 for? Lead locomotive markers?

Nicely done! You deserve a lot of credit for venturing out on that obviously grey, cold, and dismal day, but in a way it just added to the atmosphere.
And thanks for the look at the Perryville environs! Driving up and down Route 95 I knew it was downriver somewhere and always wanted a look, but never had the time to stop.
Fun video, and it went by quickly! Maybe a little too quickly but you know the old show biz saying:
"Always leave 'em wanting more!"

Very Nice Catches!! Yeah, It's rare 2 see a Train on the Royalton Branch in Broad Daylight. I myself I have visited the NEC, But only In NJ, But Perryville is a Nice Spot Betewwn DC and Philly (Especially on the weekend, cuz there's noone there.) Anyway, keep up the Good work man And I can't wait 4 ur Next Video!!

Great photography & storytelling.

I literally saw that p42 last night on 147

Awesome as always my friend.

I have never heard a frozen ACS-64 horn salute ever like that before. That sounded so alien-like to hear.

Excellent Video
🚂🌿🇮🇳🚂🌿

Once again a good video!

Great video! I’ve always been interested in the Port Road Branch, so I’m looking forward to future videos

I like these kinds of videos, man. Keep it up. I've been to Harrisburg and the surrounding area for some train action and it is quite busy.

Have they decommissioned Three Mile Island yet?

Yes sir I love this guy 💚🤍

Thanks! Fantastic as always!
