  • This is for the railroad egineer. Why Doesn't BNSF have Cab Signals installed in there Locomotives yet?

    BNSF Locomotive that enter Ohio must wait for a unit of the rail line like CSXT or NS to be the lead unit. BNSF locomotives don't have Cab sigals installed. This seems kind of dumb being that BNSFunit coal trains travel all the way to the east coast.

  • Do railroad engineers, and switch men like being filmed?

    I spend most of my free time only as a hobbie filming trains, and taking photos of passing trains I have had many encounters with down right mean yard workers, and some but not all engineers have fliped me off. I am a professional, and I know my limits,and respect the railroad laws. I have had countless times of men throwing things from the cab yelling stupied remarks, and the yard switchmen threaten me with harm if I don't leave the area. I remind you that I am on public land. Seems that things have changed, most men don't even wave back, and to be in a photo. I do have some of my photos listed in the trainsweb sites. My question is: Don't roadmen like being a part of history?
