RMweb Premium chris-shay Posted October 31, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 31, 2019 Some 20 years ago I was working at the Boeing factory in Renton. Having only been in the country about 48 hours, it was my first shift at work on a dark snowy November morning when driving through Renton, and not really 100% sure where I was going, one of these BN beasts came rumbling down the street towards me. Talk about a wake -up call!! Mind you, it did start my love of US railroads which continue to this day. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdvle Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Search didn't indicate that this location has been featured before, and I just posted some track plans of a freight shed that ran along this street in the other thread (*). These are pictures of CN running freights down Ferguson Avenue in Hamilton, Canada. Apparently mainly a more residential street in the steam era but the one end had some industries including the freight shed. https://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=15604 http://www.railpictures.ca/upload/street-running-on-a-gloomy-wet-day-cn-c424-3232-heads-north-up-ferguson-avenue-on-the-hagersville-sub-in-hamilton-leading-train-466-not-far-from-arriving-at-hamilton-yard-a-nice-selection-of-nyc-j http://www.railpictures.ca/upload/matching-cn-zebra-striped-a-b-a-f-units-9173-9195-and-9166-handle-725-the-steel-train-along-the-street-running-portion-of-cns-hagersville-sub-along-ferguson-avenue-having-just-departed-hamilt And from the steam era, the aftermath of an accident just a short distance from the freight shed https://www.flickr.com/photos/hpllocalhistory/14467297116/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/hpllocalhistory/14303769960/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/hpllocalhistory/14303797739/ * - https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/47081-track-plans-for-north-american-layouts/&do=findComment&comment=3719029 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

APOLLO Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) Crazy situation here - Train has to observe road traffic lights, even pulling upgrade. Horn altercation with a truck also. Never seen anything like this before. The Norfolk Southern driver dithers a bit, misses a couple of very short timed green lights then sets off throwing out lit fireworks !! (fusees) but a bit further on the CSX guy times it niceley and barges through !! Brit15 Edited November 8, 2019 by APOLLO 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
