This is my nostalgia video 😃😃😎😎.

It also happened in the Binghamton, NY a few years ago. Fortunately the car did stop on its own after traveling several miles. I believe it was a LP gas car. Most people in the area considered them selves lucky as it was traveling through a city area.

That tanker car broke every railroad rule in the books like an absolute boss.....savage lol 😂

This actually happened on the Harrisburg line. a tanker car on the back of an ESPN train ran at 50mph down the line. dispatch luckily cleared all signals ahead and eventually they got it to stop. thankfully the car only had candle wax so if it derailed the area would smell like someone's grandmother.

Whoever didn't set the derailleur with the blue paddle up on the industrial spur is so fired...

3:18 cant say I've ever heard a crossing bell like that one

Things like this do happen, but not all in one incident. This is the "Christine" of railroad cars! It just won't quit or die. It violates the laws of physics - gets down to sea level, then miraculously ascends back inland again! A point about how railroads are set up: Once a you start down an industrial track or branch it usually comes to a dead end, especially when the track gets into the weeds and starts looking abandoned (part 3). Also, one would think a dispatcher would eventually be told to route the car into a siding where it would be allowed to derail, since it looks like there were no active placards showing it to be a hazmat load.

Not a runaway story but ik some of yall will like it.... back in the 80s in the city near where i grew up....this 10 yr old kid whos dad worked for BNRR as a yard engineer took the controls of a switcher engine when it was left idoling alone....he took it onto the main and into the next town 30+ miles away and then back again! In total he traveled over 60 miles! The police couldent get to him most of the time due to the line he was on went into some really rural areas and the roads were not close.

2:41 I wonder how people would react if they see a Runaway freight car at railroad crossing

That thing traveled pretty damn far, and it kind of started by itself, sitting on an overgrown line...I think it's haunted! Don't call the NTSB, instead call a paranormal expert!

On the same day I just watched Unstoppable. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣

This is beautiful! It looks so realistic! Kudos to the designer of this video! 😆 Tony 59-year-old Black Air Force VET 🇺🇸

This also happened in the city of Tacoma Washington (in the late 1980's or early 1990's) where the train crew was spotting a boxcar at the steel casting company between South Tacoma Way and Center street on Wilkeson street when it got away from them and rolled down those tracks, all the way THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE BUSY CITY DURING THE NORMAL WORK DAY crossing over Pacific avenue heading towards the mainline that runs along the waterfront, which it did make it to, where it then came off the tracks destroying itself. They estimate it reached speeds of 70mph coasting downhill when it crossed over the busy main street arterial Pacific avenue. It hit no one!!! You know where the federal court house is that used to be the passenger train Union station there on Pacific avenue in downtown Tacoma??? Those tracks used to cross Pacific avenue at an angle right to the north there just before S.15th street. Those tracks used to be connected to and were the north end start of the South Tacoma sub which is the same line where the new commuter train went barreling off the tracks a couple of years ago killing two riders on that inaugural run. They were connected right above Pacific avenue right behind the Mission by King's drive in restaurant curving to the north there and continuing downhill past the City shops and the old Carling Heidelberg brewery (now an upscale growing college & bar district) through a small industrial section of the city to the mainline connecting at the waterfront level not far from the large grain export facility also along the waterfront. Anyway the event made the local paper and even had a statement from the BNSF spokesman who admitted that "today they were very lucky that nobody was killed or there wasn't more property damage". THIS WAS A BIG DEAL and as far as I remember the railroad had to take steps to assure it wouldn't happen again. Which because they eliminated the connection when building the new commuter light rail line, that freight line today ends well up the hill just west of M street. Now they have to come around from the other end in south Tacoma sub freight spur that no longer connects to downtown, assuring that indeed, it can't happen ever again.

That tank car said I'm sick of sitting here waiting for a train to come and get me. I'm gone

6:42 Here we witness a high speed chase... currently the suspect is not slowing down...

A few months ago a runaway tanker hit a car in México, then this is so realistic! Great video!

Legend has it that it's still rolling . . .

The intro was like something out of Unstoppable

Looks like somebody has to pay for the mess.

An excellent cinematic production of the journey of a lone UTLX tanker car. We shall see what happens next!

The best video I’ve seen on YT for a long time. Thank You!

In the early 1900's a box car somehow ended up loose in a little rural town called Kingsley and started rolling North. It traveled about 25 miles into Traversecity. Most of its trip was rural. Notification was given a boxcar was traveling at substantial speed into Traversecity and police were able to stop traffic into town ,preventing any vehicle ,railroad accidents. The boxcar ended up smashing its way through an ice house at the end of the line, destroying that and several outbuildings at the end of the spur. Switching had to be done to prevent the boxcar from destroying other buildings and a round house. I read about this incident doing research on a little town called Mayfield. Mayfield was a lumbering town depot and stagecoach line before the railroad had been built. I was pretty suprised at both. I had found several coins dated in the 1860's at Mayfield but history stated there were no rail lines until the late 1890's through that area.

They need security cameras and a railroad drone to do regular fly overs to try to keep people from trespassing on railroad property

And to this date that runaway tank car has traveled thru 21 states and still going, amazing 😅

About 30 years a covered hopper got away from a customer on the Missabe. They were able to divert it at a wye to going back uphill. A locomotive came up behind it and caught it after it had rolled close to 10 miles.

Your vids are so good that the first time I happened across one, I thought it was for real. Superb work!

Great video as usual!

I use to have Trainz Simulator for my tablet. The one map I always wanted for it was a fully scaled abandoned line. Sadly I could never find it.

I’ve railfanned at that first crossing there..only caught two Amtrak trains tho

It’s like what happend a few months ago when a tank car broke loose and cause destruction in its path.

One time supposedly in Montclair CA there's a yard a brakeman forgot to set train brakes a string of cars rolled out the yard towards Los Angeles I forgot how they stopped it.

5:06 Gustavtime own train passenger car

I really like these videos wish they would go from begin ro end straite threw .

Nice footage, catch that Tanker - I Subscribed 👍😎

Make a part 2! Also do you mind if i use this and put the Thomas runaway theme over it?

That would be pretty creep if ur out in The middle of no where and u see taht

This happens again and again because cars are left unguarded This is why the main is always higher than a siding, so that the cars will not run uphill onto the main Even scarier is the fact that trains now are left idling for as long as three days because there is only one person driving the entire train and they have cut the crew down to where there is no one available typically for 24 hours and as long as 72 hours So the train sits idling on a siding, unguarded It is only sheer luck that we have not had a train stolen Many of these unguarded trains are tank trains carrying petroleum like the one in Canada that wiped out of town Others are filled with liquefied petroleum, gasoline, or other hazardous chemicals In the quest for more profit the owners and board members and shareholders of rail companies are endangering the lives of every American And when the unthinkable happens they will blame the lack of mental health and the person who commits the crime and no one will hold the company accountable for the situation they created we had one of the neighborhood associations in New York that complain to the media about this and the rail company sent the FBI to intimidate the neighborhood association The neighborhood association was forced to disband Several of the neighbors were so afraid that they put their houses on the market and sold them and left the state Typically they would stick for engineers into a crappy motel roomand then send them by taxi 4 hours in each direction to pick up there trains sitting on sidings They were miserable and whensomeone from the media asked why they were doing this instead of having enough engineers to take the trains they said that they expect to have fully automated trains by 2022and they were just filling the Gap till they could get approval for fully automated computer control trains with no one on board this is an alarming trend that every corporation as working towards doing and they expect to be able to eliminate 60% of the workforce by 2022 Without UBI there is going to be over 150 million homeless people by 2023 We are already a third world country but we are going to look like Africa and South America after Trump second-term People will be eating their pets We already have 20 to 30 people living in single-wide trailers, because no airport is me can afford the rent working 2 jobs I never thought I would see this happen to our country We have an upper 10% that has 90% of the wealth in the country For them life is great but for the bottom 60% they can't even afford a basic apartment I wish the government would offerpeople money to be sterilized and never have children If they would just pay people$2,000 a month to not have children we could reduce the population to where there aren't more people than there are jobs and all of the illegals pouring over the border the company's love because they can get them for $0.50 an hour which makes the problem exponentially worse but increases the stock price And the government worries about when the oppressed minorities are going to take over Right now it is the greatest fear of every Governor every Mayer and every law enforcement agent They all say the one thing they're trying to do is to prevent an uprising I have never been this depressed in my entire life I turn on the news and I have panic attacks I watched as a heavily-armed black man shot six police officers I'm now watching as thousands of black people are demanding his release and hundredss of thousands of black people saying that killing the police needs to be done and that there is nothing wrong and you should not go to jail for killing the police Every major city is like this now a full-blown war zone I was told by several agents that Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are "lost" They have given up on these cities It is merely a matter of limiting the damage on a daily basis instead of trying to enforce the laws the Philadelphia legislature has demanded the removal of all bulletproof glass from businesses in Philadelphia so that the black people can resume killing all the shop owners Over 3,000 people are killed in Philadelphia every year And every single casethe DA has said they can't prosecute because every one of them all of the witnesses are murdered before they can testify He said it is the biggest problem they face in prosecuting crimes the US District attorney is rightfully angry with and disgusted with the mayor and the district attorney in Philadelphia because they are promoting lawlessness I am disabled and I was approved for 24 hour care but the county was unable to find one single person to come and take care of me because they don't take care of people they sit with the person they're supposed to be caring for and do drugs and drink beer and commit robberies The agency stole$300,000 from the county on my account because they said they were sending people and they weren't and when I asked the county if they were going to take charges against them they said what's the point LOST We are descending into Africa with corruption and crime just like they have By 2030 there will only be 20% of America still Americans I wish I was well enough that I could move to Canada I really wanted to move to China but they have a very strict policy on not allowing in anyone who is not contributing something that China needs Most countries have a very strict immigration policy but not the United States Very sad

the tank car that is traveling all around the world.

What a beautiful cinematic display! I love the uses of aerial and static shots! I was never bored, and always left in suspense. And the cliffhanger at the end really takes the cake! I can’t wait to see what happens next! Well done ‘GUSTAVTIME’! Keep it up! :)

These are the continuing voyages of the runaway tank car. It's ongoing mission, to explore strange new tracks, to seek out new places to park, and to go where no tan car has gone before.😂😂😂😂

I watch this since 2021.

I feel like the Runaway theme from Thomas would be more fitting.

Even without brakes a car won't just spontaneously roll on a level grade - there has to be some sort of slope, even the slightest. Also at 8:55, the target aspect is wrong. The car is rolling out of a block and the target is displaying a green aspect. Should have been red.

This happened a few years ago when a psrmf locomotive pulling so many cars came!

It was summer of 2019. A UTLX Tank Car #58221 was sitting on a siding outside a small railroad depot. Then, a mysterious figure came into the siding and released the handbrake on the tank car. The tank car started to roll away down the track towards the mainline and the mysterious figure walked away from the scene. The tank car ran through crossings, yards, towns, along a coastal run, and then enters the mainline. Will tank car stop or keep running until it crashes? That’s gonna have to wait until next time. *To Be Continued*

Just asking a question? Which rolls faster: an empty tank car or a full one? Or a streamlined diesel or a GP 40 style? Which diesel would roll faster? I am enjoying this type of playing trains. Nobody gets hurt except in computer land.

Hello from sydney australia very well done many thanks for posting cheer's robert.

Why this wheel make freight cars move and because a runaway car

Wow, those new self propelled train cars work real well!

فعلا رررووعة مثل الحقيقه بضبط

THAT is fast!When I saw the coach, I thought it was going to crash! Thank goodness it didn't. I would scream!1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10!

What strange tanker. It seems to it will never stop rolling along. I think is a,ghost tanker.

OMG it's the Portland Terminal I love this map. They don't even have it in the DLC store anymore.

428 dispatch Dispatch to 428 go head 428 dispatch ill be in pursuit of a runaway tanker railcar please advise the railroad and state patrol to close all crossings going south bond and ask the railroad how to stop the car. Dispatch 428 10-4 at 14:22 428 clear. Basically how it would go in real life.

Excellent tanking. Cheers!

Invisible ghost diesel engine

When those wonder how the tank car was tampered with when those didn't show how the hand brake was released when the tank car was moving on its own when those also wonder if the noise was the wheels rolling on the rails was enough for some crossing gates to be activated as there could be cases motorists who were stopped at a crossing had a way to get the tank car stopped not before a 911 dispatch center would likely have the switchboard lit up like a Christmas tree.

I like gustvatime train videos on KZfaq 👍

The music at the end has a Runaway Train kind of feel to it.

Maybe use a runaway caboose next time please

This is an extremely well made video!

Good one

Bob: Hmm, a CSX sitting there... Ah! I should let one of the tankers go! -uncouples tanker from coupling rod- Cop: sees the railroad crossing gates go down- WTF! That's a small trai- that's not a train.. That's a runaway tanker! 19 hour tanker chase Breaking news: The suspect has not slowed down. Crap..

Nothing to see here. Just a random tank car going for a stroll through town and out to the country side.

This happened in Quebec except it was an entire line of tankers it when kaboom

Criminal:This will be fun If I let his tank go.. 5-minutes later. Tank car:58 MPH. Police: I see a train moving, that's not a train we have a problem. That's a tank car. Criminal:I gotta run! Dispatcher: I see the tank car moving. It's caused by the Guy named..Roger it's on foot. He's running!! Police: I'm on my way. 1-Hour later. Police: I got the guy. I think Roger Dispatcher: Good JOB^o^ Bonus! 6:01 Car chasing Tank car? More bonus news: Breaking news. The Tank car Is Goin 78 MPH and We need to stop it! We need a train CSX engine diesel. This is the problem of New Jersey City. Traveling to California? This is the problem of the train Co. It May hit a Train! To newscaster James: OK this train is going fast. 80 MPH We need to stop it Back to the news. OK this a Run away train That's not going to hit the train If u don't like my comment that's Ok:-( (^o^) I didn't have many likes like this. Thank u guys.,, ;-)

GUYS! IMAGINE IF IT HAD A NUKE FUEL AND IT BLEW UP!

This actually happened in Mexico I think but with more train cars

The guys in the cars were like "uh has any one called 911 yet?"

Hmmm. How’d that car move without bleeding the remaining air out of the retainer? I guess the air in the system was bottled with the hand brake set.

What did you use t make such a good video! (For the trains)

Very realistic, very dangerous Gustavtime......

7:00 Tank vs car who will win the race

Omg that's the new train OMG ima buy the tank locomotive

Why do I find this so amusing to watch?

I like gustatime train videos on KZfaq 👍

I know I put right there! Now where is it, maybe it's a magical tank car filled with magic dust in it.

I think that tanker is possessed

How did you get it to move without stopping?

Fascinating animation

5:05 I don’t think I saw gustavtime on that passenger car xd

"No, no, Ma'am... There HAD to be a locomotive, switching engine or sone kind of bull crane unit pulling or pushing that tank car you'e speaking of! They don't just start rolling on their own!"

After a days Tankcar was Here all day

Hard to believe, that the car kept going, even on a level plane.

Oh my gosh that is so creepy 😫

Very slick, indeed!

This must have been some kind of a long downgrade!

Miss Thomas Runaway Theme.

Questions to the author: what is the purpose of the film? is it part of some plot? is it showing off CGI skills? are you testing a new computer program? Please, let me know.

Great video!

and actually in Mexico happened, it was a tank car of the mark "kansas city southern de Mexico" in the state of Querétaro i remember that the tank also crash in some cars and people get hurt.

This little tank car that could.

There was a runaway tanker near the Bethlehem steel plant

In my time as a professional rail worker I have seen cars get away from a crew. This, however is deliberate. In order for this to happen someone had to take off the brakes deliberately. In order to get it out of the siding they had to remove the derailment feature. Again s deliberate act then they had to actually lone the tank car out of the siding. Each one of these is a 10 year federal felony crime if someone Is injured or dies as a result of these crimes. Also once the dispatcher becomes aware that they have unauthorised movement he can line that car into a stub track and let it go on the ground. Most industries and track control points are on remote controlled.recorded camera. So they will know. Who, what. Where and when. Enjoy your time in prison.

What route is it? It's for TS2019, isn't it?

This reminds me of an accident on the Leigh line near Bethlehem PA

Unstoppable 2 looks great!

Ohhh someone's getting arrested.

Thr tanker sound like a steam engine😁

Is there some sort of sound mod you have in train simulator 2019
