I spent Wednesday in Vandalia, Ohio by the CSX Toledo Sub with Buckeye Freight Railin` ‪@GY51360‬ ‪@SimonsEMDProductions‬ and ‪@AdventureswithJoeyBoats‬ looking to get a lot of action on this very hot and humid day.
The first train was a long Southbound CSX I141. It is a daily intermodal that I have gotten more times than I can count.
It was followed a short time later by a long Northbound CSX autorack moving on!
Then we get the long Southbound CSX "Slabosaurus Rex" steel slab train that goes to the Cleveland Cliffs Middletown, Ohio steel mill.
The next train to show up was a long CSX Northbound mixed manifest that I got coming around the long curve headed straight at us.
A Southbound high railer rolled past not long before the skies opened up with a heavy downpour of rain. We had to get under the US 40 bridge to stay somewhat dry as the Northbound Middletown Special steel coil train rolled by in the heavy rainstorm. We even got a horn salute too!
Thanks for watching! I hope you have a safe and Happy 4th of July!

Yep, they don`t tie those slabs down at all. They are counting on gravity keeping them in place. I saw one go through Carlisle once that had jumped sideways and was hanging off both sides of the car about 3 feet! The train in the rain was a real lucky catch as far as timing. We knew it was coming and it showed up about 2 minutes after it started pouring rain! Lol Have a great 4th of July Tom!

Good made video, mr 1960 Gambit. On the start of the video i see hè this Vandalia good place to spot trains. But the weather first hot and than a lot of rain including wind is that normal? Here in Zandvoort on the coast turns the weather conditions in 1 hour. But that can whe see on the weather app. Thx for this topvideo 🚆🚆🚆👍👍💪💪👌🚆🚆 in Vandalia. Greet from Zandvoort the Netherlands.
