By any chance does anyone know the engines that were destroyed in this derailment? Because it looks like a SD40-2 and maybe Dash9. Also, if they did get derail what would have caused them to derail if for one they were on a straight track along with being in Energency.

I have both the line from N.Winston to Rural Hill along with the short line to North Wilkesboro done on a Train sim (On the radio is called YV1/2). I also have the NS line that runs through downtown W-S to Greensboro,NC (That is calles P30) on my Train Sim as well both lines start out at around 6-8:...

Yepp thanks I checked out those frequencies 160.500 and 160.815. I recently did some listening in on the channels and I noticed 160.500 is the road channel for the two lines the line to North Wilkesboro is called Yadkin Valley train 2 the other line I believe is just called the Mount Airy Line. Not ...

Why don't they Wrap the K-Cars??

Only change that I see is the Monitors one on the engineer side and the Fireman side why is that??

I want to say 6004 has a Leslie but more so sounds like a high pitched Nathan. As for 6003 seems to have Nathan K3LA or something simliar on a Leslie!!

Thanks but I do remember coming across mostly all CN power had a K3L and nothing but. But any ideas for the SD40-2s??

Anyone know why 1034,1053 and 1054 are still in BET and is 1117 still awaiting to be put in service??

Hello there I was wondering does anyone the current horns used on the Yadkin Valley units like the SD40-2s and the GP40-2LWs which I'm sure have K3LA horns on them. As for the Tunnel Motors numbered 6002-6004 I am sure they are equipped with Leslie horns but don't know which ones exactly.Same for th...

Does anyone know the track speed in and around Winston-Salem Yard?? One of the locomotives on the line had a digital read of the speed and it said 11mph but why so slow could it have something to do with the track condition??

Are the ES40DCs equipped with this same technology as well or does it only effect the Wide cab Dash9s??

Do Radio Frequencies have ranges because I have a Radio Scanner that is post to pick up train frequencies but sadly it doesn't but any suggestions on how to figure it out but the other bad part is I live off of a short line named Yadkin Valley but once in a while NS runs on it. But I hear they don't...

I live on the Northside of town and the line sees NS power along with KLWX trains and seems to me like KLWX locomotives must be assigned to this line because engines 6001,6003 and 6004 continue to appear over here around 6:30 to 7am on the weekdays!!

Hello I'm new to North Carolina and I am also trying railfan and figure out what type of diesels run in Winston-Salem that pass a bunch of shopping centers like food-lion and a few car dealers?? But where I live I may hear a train going into the around 6:50 in the morning every now and then but some...

I going to go with opinion Number 2, because the standard Lightning Bolt Scheme with purple and Silver and kind of getting old so why not a new color onto the unit like black along the nose!!!As for Opinion 3 I don't think people would want to see a huge T from down the street. But I'm curious will ...
