19:00 "Good afternoon, Danny". Why do all the good crews have to be there.

“Good afternoon, Danny!” Wow, thats awesome. Great crews. And you can keep those CP GEVOs. They run by here way too often. And Max is a great guy.

I've never understood those "impatient drivers." Every time I get stopped by a train at a crossing (which is rare for me), I get as excited as a kid in a candy store. Keep up the great work!

Hands down danny you are the best railfan I like to watch!!.. the paul Harvey of rail fanning!!..

I've enjoyed your channel for a couple years now. I'm a CN conductor in Green Bay, WI. Great stuff very much appreciated in these difficult times.

Yay a new distant signal video!

Great video. Cool hearing you name over the radio. And it was a long video. I like that

Am an old CN/CPR/VIA railfan and enjoy these CSX videos and your informative comment! 😀🇨🇦

I always wondered what the lights on the side of passenger cars meant.

Another outstanding video Danny! A small tip for you about trains and combining them... Hunter Harrison's philosophy was why run one train when you can combine them and run 2? Here, train 119 was a mixed manifest out of Montreal. 651, empty ethanol came up from Albany. It had to go through the yard in Montreal, so, Hunter had them combined to save time, wages and shareholder money. They were then split in Winnipeg when the manifest kept heading West and the empty ethanol went South back to the fields to be filled back up.

Always full of good info. One thing I've wondered...why do some engines have amber strobes on the roof (like the one at 11:15-11:30) and others don't...when are they used? Switching? Industry? On certain lines? Might be a good topic for covering in another video, too, though I'll welcome a reply here. PS: I like the longer length here; never can get too much of Distant Signal productions and DH!

Some interesting and unusual (for me at least) sightings: Amtrak locomotives running tail-to-tail like most freight locos but unlike passenger locos there and here in Canada (Via Rail), and then the Amtrak train pulling auto-racks at the end! Great catches Danny! Thanks.

Hello from Cornwall Pennsylvania. Great job as always. Not only do I appreciate your videography, Danny, but I also enjoy the history lessons as well. Way back when (1950s) I followed the Florida East Coast, even before and during the Ed Ball era and the bitter strike which ultimately made the FEC so unique among Class I railroads. But my knowledge of FL railroads is piddling next to yours so....Many thanks as always. Thanks also for your personal email response to my message. I’ll be back to you soon. I headed north from visiting my family in FL on 3/16, boarding #92 at Winter Park that Monday, in the early evening. That was the day all the Chinese Virus restrictions kicked in big time, and the sleepers were deserted. My wife and I each in a Roomette and just one other couple occupied in the entire car. When we arrived at 30th St. on time (!) Tuesday afternoon at rush hour, we were literally the ONLY living souls in the massive train hall there, except for 2 Amtrak ushers. Talk about eerie!! We made a quick connection to our Keystone Corridor train to the Lancaster area and home. We were very lucky. The nest day the Keystone Corridor trains were cancelled. They’re still not running as of now. Thank you for your fine channel and the personal contact. Both are much appreciated. Stay safe and healthy. Happy Easter. We’re doing our Easter family get-together by teleconference. Sad but true. CAS.

I'm a feeder driver for UPS, in the chicago area. (I go to lots of railyards, Norfolk southern, CSX, BNSF) we use CSX shipping containers, along with EMHU and also our UPSU yellow shipping containers. UPS also tries to put loads less then 300 miles on a truck, no point bothering with the railyard when time can be cut in half.

Loved the O709 switching part especially, and the rest of it too! Sad that Class 1s are trying to drive away local business.

I wrote a lot of tickets to drivers that failed to stop and/or drive around the gates. Deputy Sheriff in Savannah Georgia for 27 years!

This is quite a gift for all of us out here in lock down Danny. Thank you so much for your time shooting, cutting, recording and mixing. You know all that production value is NEVER wasted on a guy like me. When all of this virus nonsense is over we will defiantly see you in out there on the" High Iron." Be safe my friend.

Greetings from Buffalo NY. Home of CSX Walden Yard 6, a junkyard for old rail cars, adjacent to an uncoupling yard on Broadway which has fascinated me from a young age. As you get closer to Harlem Rd, the loading yard for shipping containers and automobile haulers sits next to several lines, including a pair of unused spur lines running to commercial properties. If you ever find yourself up this way, it is prime viewing!

Danny, enjoyed this video immensely thus also really like the CSX crews having a great rapport with you by acknowledging when they see you, thats great 👍.One of the top notch rail fanners,that be you Danny. You & your family take care & be healthy & you be safe along the rails. 😎👍👍👍🛤🚂

Awesome video Danny! Nice mix of information and trains. Now one thing, the Portsmouth Sub, which spurred out of Norlina NC, originates in Weldon not Richmond. It's a fun piece of railroad all things considered.

In the early 80's - after CSX Corporation was formed but before CSX Transportation was created to operate the entirety of the CSX properties my work group occupied cubicle space adjacent to the Operations Planning Department of Chessie System. Operations Planning KNEW that Centralized Dispatching was going to happen and the ALL tracks/milepost had to be uniquely identified so that computer systems could know what was being accessed. Chessie System personnel assigned the Milepost designations for Chessie System Trackage; Seaboard personnel assigned the Milepost designations for their portion of the railroad. In general - B&O trackage starts with a B; C&O starts with a C, ACL trackage starts with a A, SAL trackage starts with a S, for some reason L&N trackage was given a numerical ZERO as a prefix. Others have been incorporated over time such as the RF&P when it became a part of CSX was assigned CFP as their Milepost designation. YMMV!

Hi Danny, I am sure that the engineers appreciate your videos like we do. I love your attention to detail. Yeah, trains are truly complicated.

Nice when a crew recognized you. Great informative video Danny.

Any time I get stopped at a rail crossing, I'll sit and count how many cars are connected. These behemoths are always fascinating.

Thank you, love any day you post something new.

I keep hoping that I'll see you when I'm in the Lakeland area delivering and picking up food in my semi.

"good afternoon Danny". Gosh, you have such a neat production that the crews know you. Never stop!

Great informative video as usual. Your comment about the flip-top hoppers and how they were emptied reminded me of my first year at Dupont Chemicals in LaPorte Tx. One of the "general helper" jobs was to climb into the gondola which had been full of cliche' and shovel out the remaining cliche' so Mr. Dupont didn't pay for anything he didn't get. The hot Texas sun sure made that day long. Good memories just the same. Thanks for the "way back" memory, and keep the video's coming but stay safe from Covid-19.

That was alot of information about this line. I often wonder what kind of education these engineers and conductors have to experience before that get out on the rails. Great video Danny. Stay safe.

LOVE your videos, Danny!!

Always love your videos and narration Danny! Keep it up!

Thoroughly enjoyable video. You have a great voice for this.

When that alarm bell goes off it makes my day. WOW! Another great video, Danny. And that Auto Train is one heck of a train.

Another great video Mr. Harmon. Thank you for the time you take to make such great, interesting, and informative videos. I look forward to meeting you in person some day. Keep up the great work and stay safe.

I have recently started watching your videos and all have been interesting .

What a great video Danny. Incredible footage. It was so nice to hear your voice again. So calming and takes me away from all the troubles in our world today. Be safe and keep up your fantastic videos.

caught a new one! from a scottish railfan to you! love the videos!

Great cool video! Love the explanation of shipments in and out of Tampa

0:36 just took my breath away; what a gorgeous pic !!!! i love empty tracks; wonder where they may lead to.

I nominate this video as "Railfan Video of the Decade" - Thanks as always for sharing your passion.

I've been making a train simulation game on Roblox and these videos have helped me with some inspiration to make these games more realistic. Love your videos! :D

It's good to see you're doing well, Danny. Can't wait to see your next video.

Awesome informative video Danny!

That was terrific!! AMTRAK running north on freight line!! WOW. I love your narrative with the video. Learn so much.

Great video Danny, thanks for all the information..

Great content as always Danny. Stay safe, be well!

You have the Best Voice and Most Information out there. You’re Almost Overqualified for KZfaq. 😬 👍 Thanks and Stay Safe!

That was AWESOME Danny!!!

Great video as always, Danny. While I love to hear the details and things about the railroad, I also really like to hear your little stories and things like what you had for lunch that day. I think it gives your videos a bit of personality, and I know you didn't go hungry that day! Keep up the great work!

Hi Danny, thanks for the very interesting video on route labeling, the history of some route segments and the rerouting of the Auto Train. Always fun to see and hear your railfanning adventures. - Dean from Minnesota

Thanks Danny for your experience and knowledge that you put into your videos! You know even what's inside the cars! Best I can do is if their full or not (not too well though!) And getting a shout out from an engineer! Great video as usual.

You know you know your info when crews say hi to you.

Nice catches! I enjoy learning about railroad prefixes and what they are about! I also like the Amtrak Auto Train a lot and also enjoy the narration a lot! Really nice!

WOW, what a great surprise towards the end of the video, I would have loved to witness that. Im glad this was a longer video, great job BTW. Watching it does make me miss your wonderful state of Florida though, we were headed there at the end of this month again, but.........hopefully this fall things will get better. PLEASE, Stay Safe out there, wherever you go, we don't want anything to happen to our favorite railfan.

Well what a pleasant surprise this morning, plus I will say Good Morning Danny! It must make you feel great to hear an Engineer say 👋🏻👋🏻. You always seem to come up with new and interesting topics, and that Auto-train catch was top shelf. Thank You! Please keep yourself and family safe during this time.

Cool to see auto train having just watched a video of the auto train, round trip. Thanks for posting.

Once again an outstanding video and very informative too! Cheers from Sweden!

I've been subscribed for quite awhile and get notified when you put up another video. I've been a train nut since I was a young kid. I'm also happy to see old steam engines brought back to life, and the best one of all is the Union Pacific #4014 'Big Boy'. I do have an HO scale Rivarossi 'Big Boy' #4001.

Great video, as always!

Thanks Danny, be safe and stay well.

Great clip, Danny! I love the long ones! So neat to hear your name called out by the train crew, respecting your long-standing passion for all things rail. Man, you are such a cool dude! Keep it up; I gobble up everything you post!

wow what a small world we live in. I had to take the auto train back to PA because college was sending everyone home cause of corona. here we are 2 years later and i find this video. I was on that train!

Hey Danny, glad to see you're still out RF'ing during all of the recent events. Hope you stay safe and well!

I miss those superliner sleepers , I remember seeing those going threw winter haven years ago , nice catch on the auto train

That was a good show Danny. Looking forward to the next one.

Greetings from New Jersey. The one positive thing about the internet - and there aren't many - are videos like these that you and so many others create and upload. Sometimes I enjoy the straight trains passing the camera videos that so many put out - and then there are those that are informative as well. Yours are informative, with a sprinkle of drama via your great narration. Looking forward to your next one. Everyone, stay safe.

I love the Golden Beaver on those CPs.

Danny enjoy the video and your very informative commentary. I am a new subscriber- thanks for your efforts!

Been missing your videos!

Danny, I like your videos from the moment they begin.

Great video Danny. Haven’t been out much just been working like crazy. Great seeing you and stay safe out there.

Another masterpiece!!
