Truck Parks Way Too Close To CSX Street Running Train That Has 2 Locomotives In The Middle Of The Train Working Hard! High Rail Truck Running Down The Middle Of Main Street On The CSX Short Line From Louisville, Kentucky To Cincinnati, Ohio. Train Speed Limits Explained & Railroad Radio. Street Running In LaGrange, Kentucky On The LCL Sub.
This is a southbound CSX mixed freight. The train is street running in LaGrange, Kentucky and has a couple of DPUs in the middle. Perfect sunlight shining right on the front of the train! A person driving the pickup truck wanted to make a left turn over the railroad but decided to sit next to the track and wait for the huge train to pass. They should have turned right and took a different route. Sitting that close to a moving freight train is dangerous and foolish. If anything had been sticking off of that train like a log or unsecured load that could have been a disaster. Trains have to go slow through town due to things like this. I explain in the video the maximum speeds for the trains while on the street running track. I also show a closeup of one of my radios with the frequencies programmed in it.
The top frequency on my radio is the dispatch frequency for the Oldham County fire and EMS. The bottom frequency is the road channel for CSX where the trains call out the signals and you can hear the defect detectors. There are other frequencies that you can listen to obviously but these are really all you need if you want to know when the trains are approaching and if you want to listen in on the LaGrange Fire Department dispatch channel. These radios will scan numerous frequencies but I usually only listen to a maximum of two at a time.
This video also shows the Live Action Pets including Norfy and we see the slide show that comes from this video. What did you think about the truck sitting so close to a moving train? Please leave a comment below.

Filmed Thursday, April 18, 2024 in 1080p with 60fps. Thanks for watching!

    "Objects, in this side mirror, are closer than they appear." 🤣🤣 Now those two are true, dedicated railfans! 👍👍

    D-P-U-I-C-U, double DPU street running train in LaGrange Ky, nice. I never tire of watching trains in this little town. Jaw, some people just don"t exercise common sense, very dangerous for the people in that truck! Great video today. High rail truck nice also!

    These trains consistently seem to have the best mixes of freight cars from the type to the owner. That guy in the pickup truck would have been in for a big surprise if this was a CN train from Sault Ste Marie MI to Green Bay WI which consistently have plate steel that overhangs the regular car width. It would have been the new model called the can opener

    Nothing better than a street runner in Lagrange in the morning awesome video thanks Brian
  • @KatieWilk
    That driver of that truck was foolish to park there. Why he didn't use a parking space guess we'll never know. But another great video from Jaw Tooth. Have a nice day 😊🌈
  • @poowg2657
    I always enjoy the La Grange action. People do whatever they want until life throws them a haymaker. So it goes. Excellent video, thanks JT!
  • @marksykes8722
    Those Fire Dept tones at 2:20 remind me of my favorite show from the 70's, Emergency!
  • @rogertemple7193
    More exciting train action from Lagrange KY where the tracks run through the middle of town and the vehicles are always at risk if they are to close to the tracks, with the awesome live action train pets Norfy, Chessie, Loki and Brandi always great to see them as well as the slide show of the awesome trains, thanks Jaw Tooth. 🇺🇲🤠🐈‍⬛🐕‍🦺🇺🇲🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲
  • @sdrailfan892
    Maybe pickup truck driver is a rail fan that wanted an up close and personal experience.
  • @BradRains
    That truck had about 30 seconds BEFORE that train got there to make the left that he wanted to.

    Hi to JT & everyone. I've been waiting for part 2 JT! It's great when the drivers & their vehicles start to panic when they seen the train. Sometimes it can be chaos in La Grange. The truck is only about 2 feet from the train don't get why he or she parked there. Move it right where the parking spaces are. Weather looked beautiful that day JT. That train was a monster. Did I hear Norfie purring? Bless. ❤😊🐕🐕🐈‍⬛👍
  • Still holds the Guinea's book of world records for the oldest rail when used today. Congratulations john tooth
  • It's definitely a marvelous freight train coverage !! Greetings from India.

    I grew up in Fort Collins, Colorado, and trains would come down Mason Street, one of the best street running locations in America. Personally, from my experience on Mason Street, I didn't think that that was actually all that dangerous. As a previous viewer noted, yes, there could be something hanging off a train, but that person was well within the legal lines, and I from the start thought he was turning left because that's what you had to do in Fort Collins. I was impressed that he actually waited and didn't turn left in front of the train. Just my opinion, though, and as always, great video. This was one of the longest trains I think I've ever seen in La Grange!

    Good Tuesday morning Jawtooth, awesome video once again. Have a good rest of the week my friend I hope you’re feeling better 🙏🏻
  • @Andrefane32
    Amazing videos Jaw Tooth keep up the good work
  • @nano-1943
    The truck appears to be parked within the limits of the road markings, but its left-hand exterior mirror protrudes far beyond them, brushing against the train's carriages.
  • You know you're good when they put a commercial in the middle of your video
