At 3:17 that Darwin was seriously close to being an ACTUAL Darwin

*😊❤😊 Nice Catches Awesome On The Fireworks*

Wow trains, fireworks, an lightning. My favorite things.

Roanoke looks like the start of the movie independence day :D

I was the Assistant Fire Marshal in Springfield Massachusetts. I was in charge of the fireworks display every year until I retired. The show is put on by Grucci and they're launched from the Memorial Bridge over the Connecticut river.

That My Fireworks Show In 19:38 Thank You So Much Virtual Railfan 😁😊😁

And now: Greetings from Berlin/Germany👍

Soo Line! There's a blast from the past!

Great sequence from Springfield with the departing train & fireworks! Great videography!

The Roanoke t-storm shot reminds me of Close Encounters of the Third Kind...

Saw that cloud at 4:59 from our front porch in Lexington Virginia. It was a great lightning show.

Fireworks are just awesome, lots of cool colors along with the cool goodies on the trains

15:05 Surprised to see what appears to be an Amish family waving at the cam. I thought they didn't like to be photographed? Thanks for the fireworks displays at the end. I particularly like Fort Madison's; it's so picturesque by the mighty Mississippi!

Spectacular fireworks. Nice lightning show at 4:56. Cool cloud

Gotta love them 3-ways❤

Happy 4th ! Two Great Light Shows! The Thunderstorm in Roanoke & Fireworks FMD & Springfield 👏🏽🇺🇸

I love fireworks going off during the 4th Of July and New Years.

Love the Seaboard System heritage unit.

This grab bag is packed! Happy 4th of July. Wish you a good 4th, virtual railfan! and those fireworks are truly spectacular!

Just watched the prior video of La Grange and once again ask, “how can one Town have so many knuckleheads?” Talk about driving into the path of an oncoming train!

That Cloud at Roanoke look exactly like a spaceship with that dark turret right in the center

Wonderful to see Cumberland, MD in the Grab Bag!

God bless America! Let freedom ring! -The shot heard round the world

Whoa! La Plata….nearly a Darwin Winner!! (😵 per mortem feruum equus, “death by iron horse”🚂)

Love The Fireworks

Ft. Madison really is a lovely site. That ship on the water ... looked like it was traveling on glass! Thanks for the fireworks!

July 4th is my favorite time of the year!

Love the vids, keep up the good work😊 Happy Late 4th of July 🎉

What a shot with the Heritage unit and the fireworks together, Crazy!!

SUPER VIDEO🇳🇱👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯🎉🎊🎉🎊🍀

Unfortunately couldn’t go last night but every Fourth of July I head down to that CSX bridge and just watch the fireworks from there it’s really satisfying and just overall a really fun night

Nice footage 🎊🌴🇮🇳🎊🌴

16:44 that's the same train I saw in Voorheesville, NY

I love how I was on the Kearney cam July 5th, and filmed a 9 engine train, but neither of it was in this grab bag, or the newest one. The one chance I get to be on a camera, and they just ignore it, wow

Amazing video today the virtual railfan crew

Lots of action in Cordele lately 💗

Beautiful...thank you...👍😎

19:00 far left of the screen, the people in that plane have a great view. Sky views of fireworks are the best, because you can see fireworks from the whole region. Downside is you can't stick around for one whole show...

18:01 NS 1832 actually derailed in Georgia after striking a truck in 2020. Good to see it back on the rails!

@4:55 , that's how the movie "Independence Day" started too!!😳

19:38 this reminded so much of Lost Treasure's ending

Even as a Canadian great view of fireworks happy fourth of july from your northern neighbour

Hope you had a great Fourth of July! Can’t wait for your next grab bag!

Welcome new CEMEX one locomotive! WOW!!!!!!

Ka-BOOM!

In Roanoke you caught a picture of a thunderstorm brewing, we’ve had those storms in the past few weeks. Awesome train views. I hope you had a wonderful Fourth of July 🇺🇸! Awesome view of the fireworks 💥

Haha! Made it on at Spartanburg at 17:27 Pretty good rail action!

Another great video of Virtual Railfan with trains from around the country and the best scenery as well and this is why I like watching also to see if there are any Darwin Candidates in it and there are some in this one Thank You.🤠 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨

Thanks, that was great and God bless America.

Would be cool to see a Union Pacific train going underneath fireworks because if the U.S. flag being on the train. That'd be real cool. Still nice catches though.

5:49 What looks to be 4 737 Fuselage being hauled 19:37 Thumbnail

That was great to watch, thanks. The first Train at Chehalis caught my attention. Mixed-in with a line of GE's, a sole green-livery SD40-2, BNSF 1594 (ex C&S) and later again at Chehalis, green-livery GP28M BNSF 1507 (ex NP) showed-up. My mate George the Third says 'at last, something of importance on July 4th'.

is the frequency of freight train trips there more than the frequency of train trips? (nice to meet you, I'm Railfans from Indonesia, really like your channel)😊😊

@5:00 waiting for the alien spaceship to appear through that cloud ha ha.

That Darwin at La Plata has got to be the stupidest one yet! The train is moving! ARGH!

My son and I, and my wife had a good time going to Fostoria and waving to his grandma while there! Love these cams. Thanks! The static cam didn't get too much of us playing soccer by the caboose there, luckily ;) but it was also pretty hot out on the 4th.

That Darwin Candidate in LA Plata, MO looked like they got hurt...

21:52 America wants you!

hello virtual railfan it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy

Happy Fourth of July, Virtual Railfan!

3:03 😮 6:48 😮

How can I see the entire video of the trains, especially the ones that have 8+ locomotives? I’d like to see how long they are.

Is it just me,or does that Seaboard System heritage unit appear to be on a Nationwide Tour?

Happy late 4 of July

Elkhart has the best fireworks IMO.

yo imma try to get on the virtual railfan cam when im at the tvrm in chattanooga this weekend

The guy at La Plata the second attempt when he came back out and,then started walking away was he holding his right hand? Did he get injured?

Where do Cemex locos run?

13:07, Why is the Empire Builder in Rochelle?

3:05 it takes a really small brain and really large cajones to try to reach under a stopped/slow train TWICE.

9:34 IS THAT 4723?

Why do place our lives in danger for what? CSX cool with heritage units.

First

7th

Darwins ,fireworks, cloud to ground lightning 🌩 in Roanoke, meets and nice lash ups!🛤🚂
