You literally can't see the track in the road. It really looks as if the train is running on the pavement, hilarious.

Never seen a train pass through a residential area the way this train did. This is very unique.

Van driver: “Why doesn’t he just go around?”

*Therapist:* “It’s okay, residential train doesn’t exist, it cant hurt you” *Residential Train:*

CAR: you mad? train: *aggresive honking*

That horn was epic! That would've woken the dead.

This must be where they've filmed the beginning of the Polar Express.

The train never stopped at the stop sign. Where’s the police locomotive to catch him?

When a train engineer takes his work home with him

2020: stay at home and work at home Train engineers:

That is one of the weirdest things I've seen, a train had to stop so a van could move LOL

Have to be honest, I wanted to see the van moved by the train

That's the most hidden track I've ever seen/not seen from the front angle.

Here we see a wild train sneak up on its prey AND VIOLENTLY SCREECH AT IT"

There's really a whole train just chilling in the middle of a residential street... Telling a parked van to move. A van, made to be on paved road. Parked alongside a house, just doing it's deliveries, and it's somehow in the way of this one random freight train. Which seems to look as though it's casually waiting at a red light like an everyday car. This is one vehicle (if you're operating it) that you never need to worry about your safety if ever it gets into a collision with traffic. Even a truck would step out of its way. I love how it just drives off into the distance like it's not a big ass train on the streets with other vehicles.

Imagine parking that outside your house when you finish for the day

You see; this is what happens when people stop believing in Santa Claus: they have to lease the "Polar Express" tracks to local freight companies, lol = - D

I was driving on this street years ago and my youngest son was in the back asking if they ever drive trains down this road. That minute a train came down the street and my son was so thrilled because I rolled down the window and he got to wave to the engineer. This rail spurs goes go the Utica Brewery. We never want to slow this train down. 🇺🇸😎

Woman’s boyfriend: “Hey, don’t park there. A freight train comes through here.” Woman: “Yeah, right.”

"GPS signal lost. Rerouting."

*finally my Amazon premium package arrived* Edit: thank you for all the likes, hope you are well and healthy

That chick: chilling Train: *HORNS* waking even dead Neighbors: OMFG Karen parked on the street again FFS 😡

"What a crazy train!" "Yeah, it's a loco loco."

I'm gonna be honest. That situation cleared up faster than I expected. Usually I would expect it to take a while for the van's driver to realize what was going on. But she popped out quiccker.

Everyone: the truck moving Me: Where is the goddamn track?

They're lucky he didn't move that van for them 😅

Cop: "Do you know why I pulled you over sir? You just blew a stop sign." Engineer: "Aw, just try to fuckin' stop me!"

I wish there were still lines like this in UK, the last one to be ripped up a few years ago was in Weymouth

Mom, is that a train? Mom: sounds like it Train:*lays on horn* Mom: oops, gotta move the van 😂😂😂😂

At 1:16 your alarm clock just went off 😆

Imagine sitting in your house eating lunch, and you hear a train horn right outside your window. And then to realise if you don't get out there in 10 secs, he's gonna plow your van over. I've had neighbors complain about parking, but a train??

Can you imagine being in a "deep coma" like sleep, and then hearing that horn go off?😱😱😱

I love the way she thought by folding the mirror in on the van maybe the train would have gone by, guess that was an epic fail!

*GOVERNMENT:* Due to the pandemic, everyone is required to work from home *TRAIN OPERATOR:*

And THIS is why zoning came about...

Imagine if your house was on this road and you were able to build a track in your driveway so you could casually park your engine with your car

Was always a " fun " time on Schuyler Street in the winter especially when we were heading south to Binghamton on the NE 97 at 1 or 2 in the morning , pissed of a lot of sleeping people looking for the owner to move it , more than once we scraped the side of a vehicle because no owner could be found .

Train: You can't see the tracks? I'LL SHOW YOU THE TRACKS

Shame, as an ex train driver i know you cant but wouldn't it have been great to just shove it out of the way?

Sometimes, I am able to view this video over and over again, like, at least four times. Its just so unique to be able to see a train stalled because of a parked motor vehicle!

The good old New York style “get the hell out of my way” honking. I saw this in NYC with a cement truck. He was leaving a construction site and a taxi cab was blocking the construction site exit so he laid on his air horn for about 5 minutes straight. Then I saw the taxi driver sprinting out of the hotel which was directly across the street .

Having a train drive down your street everyday is the coolest thing ever

first time I've ever seen a freight train travel down a city street.

"What is we share a two lane residential road with a freight train to save some money?"

*when u ordered a premium package and it arrives at ur doorstep*

I like how the crew just lays on the horn if there is something in the way. It's pretty funny. Not much else they can do I guess!

Love it, boyhood dream having a train running down the road. Just waiting to see if the van would brake check the train🤣🤣

I just love towns that trains are on the streets.

Why can’t the train just go around the van, ugh so annoying

Random guy: (sleeping in on his day off) Train: i'm about to ruin this guys whole day.

Вот жильцам этой улицы повезло

As a European and train driver, I find these kind of street railways truly unbelievable and scary. Never seen anything like that over here. We do have tramways but it's not the same. I assume these tracks must have very little traffic, but even then... It's just crazy!

He says. “Honey welcome to the house of your dreams!” She says “Why is it so cheap?” He says “I’m just a great negotiator”. Next morning she says “what happened to our car?” He says...😳

*engineer picks up van* “that should do it. Clear!”

Главное, чтобы при продаже дома поезд не проехал мимо, когда покупатели осматривают дом ))

Lived in Utica NY from '90 to '94 and never saw a train running through. Thanks for sharing Ciao from Little Italy 🇮🇹 Montréal

Something tells me that this was how the Polar Express picked up the Children before the Christmas while on the road....

This brings back a lot of sad memories for me. What this is called is a close clearance where a vehicle is blocking or might be clocking part of the right of way. 21 years ago my wife was the brakeman on the Sacramento Southern Tourist Railroad (California State Rail Road Museum in Sacramento) She was working her usual shift as the front brakeman. That day along the rails was a children festival going on and a parent had let he kid park the van too close to the tracks. The owner of the van could not be located by the police and instead of police towing the van (I was told it would be bad PR for Sacramento) and in order to keep the train moving slow orders were given. Which means the front brakeman leaves the train and watches to see how much room there is for passing and then will step up into he last car and continue on. All went well until the last car was coming (I should mention that this was a steam train pulling 4 1940 vintage restored Pullman cars) the clearance allowed for 6 inches so the train passed and as Patti went to step up into the last car it was too late for what happened. You see no one had informed the rear brakeman to leave the door open (there had been a change of shift just 10 minutes before. So Daryl did his usual routine and closed the door that was open. Long story short since the door are recessed on the Pullman cars you can not see if they are open or closed. Patti watched for her footing since the train was moving and took aim at the lower step as taught. Upon swinging up to the doorway she came smack flat against the closed door and was crushed between the illegally parked van and the train crushing her. That was 21 years ago. The State of CA never took responsibility, The owner of the van was not sited since it was a rental used to carry foster children (by the state) the driver of the van was not cited since he was a minor and a foster child, And the Union Pacific Railroad attorney we hired was new to the practice and had no knowledge of how to take action against the parties and allowed the time to run out (Patti was a full para legal and knew the steps and told the attorneys office over and over what needed to be done before time run our) Bottom line NO ONE was ever held at fault, or paid a cent in damages. Patti killed herself on December 24, 2019 because of the PTSD from the accident so many years ago. PLEASE NEVER - NEVER- NEVER block the rails or go through the crossing "because you know better and it is safe" It is never safe and someone will have to pay the price - I know because I lost a wife of 20 years and our children lost a mother

That is too cool. Train just driving down a residential road. I love it! Especially since I don’t have to live on that road haha!

Engineer: Let's put the tracks on the street! Boss: You're fired.

I love these videos of Schuyler Street! There aren't many places remaining in the US where trains run right down the middle of a street.It looks even more ominous because the tracks are hidden by snow, making it seem like a rogue locomotive.

Tracks looked invincible. Train shares the road like a wide load truck but taller.

Magic Training is running the street, and creating the tracks under himself. Childhood dream...

I have never seen a train going through town like a tram does, with cars and people everywhere. That’s hilarious 😂😂👍🏻

Ж/Д пути и автодорога в одном флаконе, ВЫ СЕРЬЁЗНО???????😵😵😵😵😵 НУ ВЫ БЛИН ДАЁТЕ!!!!!

the car : why do i hear a BOSS music ??

- That house is perfect and so cheap! When can we visit? - We only do visits during snowy afternoons, when the tracks are covered. - What tracks?? - Never mind...

A broad...Never would have guessed. Saddened, shocked, surprised, dismayed, chagrined, & discombobulated . . . ☆

Hey man, you mind moving that van? I gotta bring it on through here and you're sort of blocking the way. Lol. It's beautiful because it's 1) Utica in winter 2) It's the NYS&W, 3) I LOVE street running! 4) Short Lines rock!

The rail is covered with snow and dust, i just thought the train is running on the road

So much for sleeping in on the weekend lol

Never seen someone run out to move their vehicle for a train!! Awesome 😅

Woo Hooo Winter street running, cutting through the ice!! Thanks for going out and getting these shots!

Looks so strange seeing a train move with cars lined up behind it, and having track like that in a town. Great.

*"All the time you have to leave a space"* Fernando Alonso

Love the sound of the spooling turbo.

THIS IS MY FIRST TIME TO SEEING A TRAIN ON THE ROAD AWSOME!

I know I shouldn’t say it, but... “Only in America” haha. We’ve only got two towns in Australia where there’s street running, but at least they’ve got no parking signs everywhere :)

Utica was a depressing, frozen Rust Belt wasteland when I left in 1982. Glad to see not much has changed.

First part of the video: where are the rails?🤔 Second part of the video: 😂

"Excuse me? I'm transporting more cargo than your net worth. Move your van, Karen"

Imagine backing out of your driveway and hitting a train.

The beer must flow!

What a GREAT vid - didn't realize they still went thru neighborhoods like this. Especially interesting since the rail tracks are iced over and appears to be none at all there. THANKS for the vid!!

everybody gangsta until the train starts honking

Now the train has left its kind. It’s now part of the cars.

Not even a hand signal to say sorry. Quality woman.

Nice. I like these roadtrains

What was built first, the public road or the RR tracks? Nice street running vid.

Nice long honk always gets your butt moving haha😂

So great video. Thumb up! Thanks for sharing this video. GreetingsCan't believe there are people waiting to see trains go by like me.

This is so cool!! I love trains. Wish I could have been there 🥰

Pretty sure that’s the road the Polar Express takes but mkay.

Выйдешь так морозным утром: что мы вчера пили?

I thought it was a USPS truck at first. Thats awesome that the driver was wearing flip flops too.

I remember street running tracks in downtown Miami, from my childhood days long ago. Sadly these tracks are gone forever.

"Honey, you hear something out front?"

Hey the Ford van folded his mirror in.....it's gonna be fine ! That thumbnail was something you just have to click on btw 👍

For a sec I thought it was driving in the road I was like Wat

Ничего удивительного, просто малыш-трамвай подрос!😆
