Gigantic Railroad Trestle In Kenova, West Virginia That Crosses Over The City & The Ohio River. Trains Pass Overhead Down The Middle Of The Street. Heavy Coal Train Goes Under The Bridge Right As A Train Is Passing Overhead. The Crew Waived To Me And Recognised Me! Norfolk Southern Trains And CSX Trains. Amtrak Station In Ashland, Kentucky Is Included With 2 Trains Flying Past. 5 Trains Are In This Video.
First we see a Norfolk Southern train with a DPU shoving the rear. The train is crossing the big railroad bridge over Kenova, West Virginia that opened in 1913. Look how huge the bridge is. The bridge is 85 feet high and 6,150 feet long. Construction on the bridge started in 1890 and the first passenger train crossed it on June 9, 1913. It crosses over Kenova and the Ohio River with the other end of it coming into Southpoint, Ohio. This mixed freight with the DPU was exactly what I was hoping to catch. I heard the train approaching on 161.250.
Next we see another train crossing the bridge and going to Ohio. This time I was on the other side of the bridge so that you can see both sides of the bridge. Just as the end of the train was passing I noticed a heavy coal train coming. This was a train that came from the Ohio River banks in Kenova and was heading eastbound. The train got onto the NS line and headed railroad east on the Heartland Corridor. The crew waived to me and noticed me. That was pretty cool. I didn't notice until I got home and was working on this video. I got more video from several spots in the Kenova and Catlettsburg, Kentucky area for Part 2.
On the way home I passed through Ashland, Kentucky. I decided to stop at the Amtrak station to check the signals. I couldn't believe how lucky I got when both tracks had signals indicating that they were lined for eastbound trains. I heard the trains approaching on 160.230 so I found a well lit spot to film them. This area gets interesting at night. Cars were cruising around with loud music and squealing tires. One car threw out a beer can and sped past. Then I noticed the police pull over a car right by me but I'm not sure if it was the same one that threw the can. They him go and when I was trying to leave a woman asked to use my phone. Of course I didn't loan it. I know better.
Anyway, CSX trains passed by on both tracks just minutes apart. These trains were booking. Actually, a couple more passed when I was at Wendys in Catlettsburg. After waiting for hours all of a sudden a bunch of CSX trains passed by in less than an hour. You can go for hours without a CSX train and then get several in a row.
Don't miss the special Live Action Pets section at the end and the special slide show from this video.
