I love these old videos. I wish i was rail Fanning when the grade was active. The old Richmond & Virginia Airline track ran behind my house in Greenville, South Carolina. It was used for the concrete plant when i was a kid.

I'm a die hard southern fan!! The main line that runs from Washington to Atlanta ran through where I grew up at dryfork va at the 223 milepost. I worked for my cousin who was a contractor to ns when I started helping him. Loved these old high hoods, and love the paint and markings on these locomotives!! Southern railway was a very strong railroad for the territory it covered!! Mygreat uncle was a detective for southern railway. He was stationed out of Knoxville Tennessee. Worked for them from 41 to 79 his name was Vernon Jones.

I’m kind of glad it was abandoned because there is no way the modern Norfolk Southern could operate it without a major derailment.

Melrose has become so overgrown with vegetation in the last five years, that it’s now unrecognizable. The runaway track signal is almost completely covered with trees as is the track and even the bridge itself. A sad end to a fabled mainline.

I remember visiting my cousins in Wheeling W VA one summer and I took my WIzard mixtapes. They'd never heard anything like it. My cousins friend had a dual tape recorder boom box and dubbed it. For the next 2 weeks i'd heard my tape playing in someones boom box or car. it spread like wildfire.

I’m familiar with DP operations here in Queensland Australias coalfieds and have operated trains using the analog and digital interfaces in cab…but not till this video have i seen brake applications/releases made using buttons to do the those tasks…its always done via the lead locos brake handles….can someone explain this further to me or have i misunderstood the video footage?

This was custom technology designed by Southern. Actually, Southern were the ones who created the remote DPU process to begin with in the 1960's. Another thing to remember is that this video is 40 years old on engines that were older.

Given that the crew was given the wrong weight to begin with and that several of the engines had bad dynamic breaks, I don't think so.

@RaisedLetter 6 ай бұрын

@@elektrosoundwave still a curious thought considering the rear helper threw the train into emergency and cancelled out what little dynamic braking they had

@H3avyHaul3r 6 ай бұрын

⁠@@RaisedLetter the emergency application not overriding the DB “may” have helped a little in the SP incident you talk about ….but to see that Southern had a “keyed” feature to keep DB engaged in an emergency train brake application brings into question the DB/train brake override as I know it from my 20yrs as a driver…to me it has always seemed contradictory to safe operations?

That railroad passes within less that 2/10 of a mile from my home in Inman, SC. The line north of here is rarely used, since the Saluda grade isn't in use any more. I've been up and down US 176 and I-26 past Saluda Mountain. 176 is hairpin turns between Tryon and Saluda. I-26 has a couple steep grades passing Saluda.

I’ve got a pre-abandonment timetable with this mainline still in it. No less than five pages were devoted solely to detailed instructions on how to run trains up/down Saluda. It was an absolute nightmare. Sadly, that was the very reason it had to be abandoned. I’m still amazed it lasted as long as it did.
