All this time later and the station got built

Wow some of these stops and places have weird names 🤔

Westtown: Yes, it was a station stop on the commuter line. I used that station many times until that part of the line closed. The building is now an Art Gallery. It was also once a small post office. The replacement Post Office is nearby. After Westtown service closed, I had to take the bus to West Chester from 69th street, a much less enjoyable ride. And as for speeds on that part of the line, at least when I was riding in 1980-82, I think 40 mph is optimistic. I remember it being a painfully slow ride after maybe Elwyn. Closer to 30 mph.

GREAT JOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can i have the firewood

Wenn ich den katastrophalen Unterbau sehe , da liegt das Geleis ja zum Teil nur auf dem Schotter. Bei den Achslasten dort , kein Wunder das Geleis rutscht weg.

Track problems also, was not because of wind, I'm sure it didn't help but it was the whole issue.

The person driving that end-loader Cat was pretty skillful moving and entire tree trunk! Impressive!

Disgusting seeing the signals in the dumpster. how many museums would have taken one of those signals home with them? They're going to do the same thing here in Big Sandy, TX

Not on my land

Makes absolute sense, knowing this problem can not be solved at the same level of thinking that created it. Einstein

earth: the place where wind can push a 25 ton giant train.

Just to clarify, I belive 18N Doesn’t orginate out of fostoria.

It’s sad that the Conrail/NYC era G Types had to get replaced. But things have to change.

Several years ago when CP single tracked their Winchester sub, they replaced all of their block signals with these type. Sections of the removed line were retained as long sidings. Interestingly, they didn’t bother to remove the old telegraph poles, a number of which still have their copper wires in place, but have likely not drawn current in many years.

I know some steam locomotives that are equipped with PTC devices to meet the safety regulations.

Great video! Trains are top heavy. Straight Line Winds are very powerful! Train is up on a berm, which adds to the impact of the wind! Terra & Cranemasters get the job done!

Having a hard time believing 50-60 mph winds did this???? Especially the locomotive

Very lucky the locomotives didn't tip too . . .

History that will hopefully never be forgotten.

That little loader could use a 4-way bucket to carry those trees safer.

I have never understood what makes existing signal masts and signal heads non-PTC compliant. I understand that the controls are massively different. But at their most basic, the signals themselves seem pretty low-tech. If there is a qualified signal engineer or maintainer reading this, can you explain? Thanks.

A great catch so to speak, I know it's a bummer for the train company's but I could watch these re-railer's all day long! They are a well oiled machine! and It's fascinating to watch them!

Its all about....... MONEY, MONEY, MONEY...........MONEY..........

Very interesting catches!! Thanks for posting!

Lots of supervisors. Why couldn't they just move those trees out of the way then put them back? LoL.

It's hard to believe that 60 mile a hour wind flipped it over with a load on it

Okay this makes no sense whatsoever, where is a couple of cars were blown over by the wind, the trees still made a windscreen enough that kept it from being a lot worse not to mention the fact that the trains came to arrest because of the trees but will chop the trees down to get into the cars when they were gaping holes they could have gotten to them around the trees so the next wind gusts through their there won't be a natural windbreak and even more cars will get blown over and derailed, real intelligent there guys not!

A train basically is a high profile vehicle. Trains can get blow over by high winds just like tractor trailers.

Cool video ... Is this Bethlehem, Pa.?

Hi! New subscriber. YT put you in my mix today. Great railfanning accidents video.

Nice video, the Susquehanna has claimed RR cars since there were bridges over it. 'Mother Nature' very strong along that river.

Awesome video of recovery ops. East Penn GP 38-2's look really nice(fresh paint)...

Good job on the video. More proof of don't fool with mother nature. She can sure teach us some hard lessons.

the way all those guys work together, its like a choreographed ballet of precision. Such teamwork. Not a place for soy powered individuals

What Happened Here train derailment.

Blown off the tracks..unreal

Excellent video!

Two different derailments in the same frame of video, you don't see that everyday. Glad everyone was ok.

For many this exercise is about as exciting as watching grass grow or seeing paint dry. For me, I love everything about block signals. Thanks for the informative video.

Really enjoyed the video. My question...how did they handle the two cars on the bridge ?? Really would have liked to have seen that.

Poor GP-40 and hoppers

I have been over that I-95 bridge in a Tractor trailer before and let me tell you it can be a rough ride when the winds are blowing! Loaded is not bad but empty in an open top is tough!

Contractor? RJ Corman or Hulcher. Thanks

I see many bridge piers ripe for collision. Truss bridges need to be replaced.

Why does the locomotive have two red MU sockets? Don't they usually just have one?

Nice video bud! I remember that storm and those couple derailments, it’s hard to grasp a couple of freight cars falling like a bridge off that, lol. Very well covered and good job!

CSX and Roofers have something in common. They care nothing about about the weather.
