I'm just awe struck. That's a huge amount of power and even bigger amount of torque given that the slugs only provide pulling force and not horsepower. How heavy was that train that it needed that many helpers and it still needed to be brought up in parts?

Three sdp45s

A MANNED CABOOSE and a MANNED HELPER......A W E S O M E !!!!

Like SO MUCH !!!! I bought my first video camera in January of 1988 so you got footage 2 years before me. It is interesting that between this video and my first video at this location 2 years later you CAN see differences already happening. One thing I noticed is that the carfleet was still all Southern Pacific as SP had not yet been forced to liquidate it s own carfleet to raise survival level cash. After that happened you started seeing The Golden West cars appearing.

You know my favorite part of this Video? ALL OF IT !!!

That is good business right there at the end. I highly recommend Trainz for the PC and a good rig with a bunch of DLC. for me, it comes in very close to the real thing.

Train #1 and #2 are both at Mott siding.

AWESOME!!! Gyralite packages EVERYWHERE on both ends....as God intended!

History for railroad nut, me. I love things like this.

Cool video and channel just subscribed

I like this video too Thank you It s nice to have stuff like this preserved

YEAH.....KEEP POSTING!

Love it! Thumbs up!! Cheers!!

A lot head end power on the first clip

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Wish Gyrolite headlights put it back!!

Do you have any footage near the Agnew State Hospital?

That belching exhaust at the end was fantastic. Must see more.

Love the consist!!! Harriman sub and modern bi-levels headed by a classic MARS fitted F45PH.

When I worked at North 1st and Trimble, my buddy and I used to take off at lunch and railfan this exact area. Used to hang around the Lenzen Ave roundhouse too, and the College Park tower, all long gone ... 1985 was a great transition era for diesel modellers, with SD9s, SD45PHs, and F40PHs all working Caltrain, and the last two on Amtrak as well.

Thats a lot of help

Nice !!!

Yeah baby, 5 tunnel motors and an SD45 powering up! Smoking up a storm too ... I once caught 11 units eastbound out of the Dunsmuir yard most of the units were deadheading but still, it was quite a sight! Wasn't it a bit unusual to have such a mongamous SD45-T2 helper BEHIND the caboose?

cti containers are extinct like dinosaurs

Biden wants everything to run on batteries! Eveready or Duracell?

Derailment somewhere on the Valley Line because the Espee don't run Intermodal trains on the Coast Line

history in action! wow, 9 engines is quite a bit!

phenomenal video thank you for posting

I wonder if 5399 was in that consist

Did railroads ever wash their cabooses? I know that SP's engines, in later years, were as grimy as a Penn Central unit.

Nice Triclops and freshly painted SD70M!

Olá meu nome é Marcelo São Paulo

2:35 all that smoke belching out. Cool!

The up loco @2:32 shows how dirty the espee and drgw units really are!

Love to see espee equipment! They shoulda kept those k5las and gyras on those f40s!

Actually, the SDP45's were bought to replace the remaining E-units that were still in service as of May 1, 1971

Awesome bro great vid

these videos hit different 🥵

There’s not many teens like me that are into this stuff 😩🤧 I’m not like the other gurls yk 😔✋

Omg this is such a great video for a nerd like me 😍😍😍 ✨ty from a nerd to a nerdd

Those screaming turbos!

Man I miss the SP. I can remember hours spent under the San Carlos overpass or behind the OSH there watching the endless Caltrains and SP freights pass by.

Great vídeo

Why didn't u keep filmn!???

Good video. I'm a retired hoghead from Dunsmuir. I hired out on the Sacramento Division in Roseville in 1972. In 1983 I transferred my seniority to the Oregon Division as it was called then. This division was created by combining the old Shasta and Portland Divisions around 1971 or so. The third train with the helper behind the cab is a bit unusual for this time. Usually we would run the helper backwards so we'd be running in the right direction if returning to Dunsmuir as a lite engine. I was a Road Foreman of Engines headquartered at Dunsmuir from 1984 to 1987. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Sigh................

Harold smirh used to work for the S P MAKING BOILERS..

♥.♥ Nice engine sound, but very polluting...

As an 8 year old kid living in Dunsmuir near the north end of the yard, my friends and I used to pick the blackberries that grew in huge bushes next to the river and tracks so when we saw the gyro light flashing in the distance, we knew to hurry up and get clear. Not many of those berries made it home, they were sooo good!

As a kid I lived in Dunsmuir and Mt. Shasta (1973-78) and lived next to the rails, dad was a conductor of SP then, was incredible to see the Freedom Train and SP 4449 back in the day. I loved the weather of Mt. Shasta, way too many weird hippies up there (aka: liberals). I remember as the weather got warmer, them creosote on the ties started to smell more and more. And yes, I model the SP and UP in HO scale now, lol. I'm grateful for whoever took the time to make this video.

A hit and miss warning bell.

Wish that Union Pacific had at least one or two engines in the Rio Grande speed lettering instead of the 1989 heritage unit!
