Paul of Covington At about 6:05, as the train starts moving, next to the rectangular and diamond-shaped signs there is a little sign or signal or something that keeps popping up and down. What is that? (edit): Judging by its location it seems to have something to do with the switch.

I hope I'm wrong, but it looks like an unsecured switch throw lever...

CMStPnPLike those little roofs at the car ends, wonder what they are for?
Wonder if they are to protect the air resevior/brake equipment from overfill in a moving loading operation.
If that 90 sigh was a speed sign fot the curve and was in metric, it would be 55 mph. Nice operation in my opinion.
Looks like a grain train shuttle operation. Like those little roofs at the car ends, wonder what they are for? Nice track as well, for a rural operation that train moves pretty fast.
