Once in a lifetime !!! Bulldog model ? 😄

折尾駅はすっかりかわってしまってますよ。あまりの変貌ぶりに久しぶりの人はみな驚きますね。

こんばんは、初めましてかつての風格ある駅は、なくなって残念です。赤レンガの構内もあって‼️日鉄マンだった亡き父の転勤で愛知県に住んでいますが❤️黒崎の幼稚園に通っていました。くろがね線は、日鉄マンから募集していたそうですね❗ご返事ありがとうございました❗北九州市の皆さん宜しくお願い致します。折尾生まれ愛知県在住62歳会社員です。

旧駅は、解体ですか?私は、八幡西区陣の原のさいせいかい病院で生まれました、今でもありますか？本城市営住宅から古屋敷から鳴水から今は亡き父製鐵マンで愛知県下に住んでいます62歳会社員です。北九州市の皆さん宜しくお願い致します❗

春の町は、間違いです。陣の原です。雨☔の愛知県からお送り致します❗

When was that? 1960s?

@@IndustrialParrot2816 Yes,sir! The time I was at that school,was from 1959-1962! And the PRR mains were loaded! My first year there,I took a train from Newport[since closed],and while waiting for the Eastbound,saw a Centipede,out of Enola,with a train of CN stockcars,absolutely awesome,especially for a 15 year old! All gone,now,even my old high school! Thank you,for your attention! Thank you 😇 😊!

First new German-built locomotive in Japan in something like a century...

@@NickBurman Since i´m a big fan of the now defunct Usui Pass i found it interesting that they used Rack-Steam Locomotives Build by the Maschinenfabrik Esslingen which was just a few kilometers from here, and which also build the Fukui Retram GT4 for Stuttgart once.

Noise reduction. Apparently.

600ボルト機関車ですか？枝光なんか浮かんできますけど私は、少なからず製鐵の街に生まれたことに感謝してます。北九州市の皆さん宜しくお願い致します。八幡西区折尾生まれ62歳会社員　愛知県在住ですが‼️

古い写真で複線を見た事があります。

There isn't any Catenary thats a Non-electrified Industrial spur

ワニ列車4〜5年前から見なくなったな…

Actually I'd say probably not, most Railroads in the US dont run a timetable anymore

@@IndustrialParrot2816 they do. Rail systems are organized as "train paths" with different speeds and stopping patterns. It wouldn't be possible any other way to run different speed services like express and local passenger trains and freight trains more or less at the same time. Punctuality is a completely different question. And one of the reasons why delays "bubble up" and remain all day is because they have to heed the other train path categories too, they can't just skip the freight train to get the express train more on time. That way delays slowly propagate through the entire network, until less crowded times (night time) allow for getting back to the regular train path timetable...

@@sepruecom no you forget large swaths of the American railroad network is Single tracked and sees maybe 1 or two Gigantic freight trains each week, and has absolutely no passenger service whatsoever although as for busier lines it might be Double tracked and there might be a timetable if you are on a big Transcon or near a major city, so yes the Waterlevel route or the Hi line or the Southern transcon will be timetabled or maybe just track ordered, but not some lightly used rail line in the Midwest (which makes up the vast swath of the entire North American network)

@@IndustrialParrot2816 those are even more timetabled. That's the reason why Amtrac trains are often delayed by days: If the timetabled oncoming train does not appear, they first have to make really, really sure nothing is coming onwards before they let any train go the other way... Outside of metropolitan areas trains in the US are mostly timetable-based (they have no signals at all), and any deviation needs to be checked and re-checked before any trains can continue... Even your "once-a-week" trains are scheduled for that exact time, and it'll get complicated if they can't keep their schedule for some reason. There'll be usually some connecting line, where they - again - 'll need to be precisely on time...

以前はELとDLのPP運転だったと記憶してます

北海道にも同様の鉄道がありました。
