This should help:

I've just discovered the  TRIOCH videos.    I particularly like the short snippets  at the road crossings with the horns, bells & crossing gate bells.    The various consists on the trains.  Will be watching the start of a four loco unit train & then it switches to an 45 ton industrial engine.

My favorite isn't train related.  I just found out I am on you tube.  Quite a shock although I doubt it will be one of the most visited.

The Recorder works for Santa Fe and he was told to remove the videos from Youtube. They were good videos.

I think that as long as the poster doesn't claim it as their own there should be no problem. Of course, I could be wrong.

Could Crandell, Tom, Erik or one of the other moderators please clarify?

Thank you

Be careful what you post on this forum video-wise.  I've had a number of threads with video links deleted (the last time was last week, and I received NO explanation from whoever deleted it; it just disappeared).

Even though, I am not a CSX fan. I think this video was composed very well and the shots are great. Wow!! [wow]

I should've spent two hours yesterday afternoon watchin' YouTube train videos, instead of blowin' $3.99 on PPV to see No Country For Old Men.  Holy hotcakes that was a bad, bad movie.

There are so many that are worthy of my "favorite", but I'm real particular about what I think a great train video must contain and how it should be shot.

Here is on of my many "favorites": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wb63wPJGjTY

What are your favorite videos on youtube? Type in derail or "train snow" and you will see some interesting ones. Derail list showed an in cab offset headon at a passing siding,, not a favorite but an eye opener.
