Video from cab of M814

[EMD567]

Here is a 16 minute video of my M814 on a road trip, plus some action of Ferro's M818 and M172 trl.
The 1st 10 minutes or so is just the M814 running down I20. The rest is acting with Ferro's M818.

Very nice !! But I think the camara should have been focused on the backend since it was 2 counties back so you could see the cars dodging it and everyone waiting like a train going thru the station, LOL

The MV's did back up traffic when we were on the 2 lane roads. It is amazing the looks we got as we drove around the subdivison.

That's great! I love taking MVs out and cruising them around town.

 

[Ferroequinologist]

Lol the first 10min or so are boring! Just kidding.

I like the passing shots and of me putting the hammer down and pulling ahead.

 

[EMD567]

Only because I let you..............The hills slowed you down more then they did me.

cool video, was that my M818 under the water tower? I always wondered where adam kept all those trains and rail cars

those two trucks moved on down the road pretty good. makes me feel better about using mine as a pickup vehicle for MV's

 

[Ferroequinologist]

Uh, no my good sir, I let YOU pass me. I just don't feel like blowing the engine up yet.

Yeah Dave, that's your M818. I haven't moved it to the 'storage area' yet.

 

[davidkroberts]

my son is going to lose his mind when we go to pick it up with all those trains around. He's bordering on a fanatic......wonder where he gets it

No hurry on my stuff, its been sitting on a GL lot waiting on the EUC. I would prefer it sitting with you than sitting with them and the dreaded forklift and parts taking gremlins

 

[AMGeneral]

Uh, no my good sir, I let YOU pass me. I just don't feel like blowing the engine up yet.

Yeah Dave, that's your M818. I haven't moved it to the 'storage area' yet.

Yeah,but if I had been there,I could have pulled out and passed you BOTH with the 915,hit the Jakes and taken pictures as you both passed,then hammered down and passed you both again.

Ask Cabell about that.....

Great vid thanks for posting.

AWESOME video!! If I had a nickel for every time I've driven past Exit 34 on I77....well.....I'd be able to afford a M814!!!

 

[kf4hoq]

And now I have an idea of where the RR Museum is now, too!!

 

[rnrracing]

Nice video. I wish more people would post those

567...Does the FRA require that you hang an EOT or knuckle up a caboose behind that big handsome rig of yours. Looks like a blast. Nothin' like a good mix of MV and RR equipment.

Keep'em all rollin'!! Charlie-Mike...

That was a worthy use of 17 minutes

When I drive the 814, I have to remember that I have a whale tail behind the rear axle.
