Getting my trusty drone airborne above Hamilton, ON before rain showers moved into the area, we get a glimpse into the daily switching operations at railcar manufacturer National Steel Car as a switching crew moves brand new railcars around the plant with one of their ex-Korail EMD SW1001 switchers, while another sits cold and dark next to the company's remaining GE center cab!

Really impressed with how clean, tidy and fresh looking this facility is. Especially considering it is is steel rail car manufacturing facility.

Excellent video Matt. This is a nice look at the NSC plant and the switching operations here. One of my favorite places in Hamilton's industrial sector. That's a cool switcher too. The drone gives us a rare look inside this place. Steeltown 👍🏻

Matty, your vids are awesome inspiration for aspiring model railroaders. You do an incredible job capturing the otherwise "secretive" day-to-day operations of these facilities. Keep up the great work!

Is everything so neat and clean in Canada? No litter, no bums, no rusted-out cars...Amazing!

Not from what I've seen.

lol! Hamilton is a dump. Just that facility is clean. Go down one of the main drags and you’ll get your fill of meth heads.

Just look at bit west from where this is and you’ll find all of that

New shiny freight cars would last about five minutes in California before being covered with graffiti!!! I know, I live here!

This would be interesting to model in HO. Wow !

Great video and also great catch! 8704 and other NSC sw1001s always caught my eye, it’s those ambulance style flashing leds.

@mattygunn693 Ай бұрын

@@CentralVirginiaRailProductions Thanks a lot! As much as I hated how they got rid of the center cabs before I had a chance to film them, these SW1001s certainly make up for that! And I agree, those LEDs are awesome!

Great drone video. That's a busy place. Also very nice to see freight cars not all covered with graffiti. Wonder how long that will last once they are out on the road.

Hi Matty. This was beautifully filmed. I feel that you must have made excellent use of the zoom feature. Really nice work ! James.

@mattygunn693 Ай бұрын

Thank you very much! Yeah the zoom feature came in quite handy for this one, and is truly what I love most about the Mini 2! Thanks again!

@FrogandFlangeVideo Ай бұрын

I have that model as well and I find that it is a very good one for urban areas such in Hamilton's industrial core. Are you familiar with Canada's National Research Council interactive map for drone pilots ? If not I think that it will be a big help for identifying restricted areas. Let me know if you would like the link to it. James.

@thurmandavide Ай бұрын

Yikes! 11:16 when the switchman used his foot to realign the coupler, I actually cringed. Love that shiny white LED infused loco!

@mattygunn693 Ай бұрын

That guy was looking pretty awkward the whole time I had my drone in the sky, but that move took the cake for sure. Those switchers do look good in that paint!

How about those parking lots. 😮
