It's Federal law. 😁
@511sndman3 місяці тому
Rule 14L (on the long island railroad at least)
@cbt19603 місяці тому
That’s very interesting. This is from the FRA Rule Book: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) rules require locomotive engineers to sound train horns between 15 and 20 seconds, but no more than a quarter-mile, in advance of all public grade crossings. Train horns must be sounded in a standardized pattern of two long, one short and one long blasts. Under the FRA mandate, the pattern must be repeated or prolonged until the lead locomotive or lead cab car is in the grade crossing. This rule applies 24 hours a day, even if a crossing is equipped with lights, bells and crossing gates.
@msr11163 місяці тому
There's an older video I've watched from around Christmastime of a train cab ride at night. One poster assumed it was a driver obsessively laying on the horn until others explained this was required by law.

To have the train go by in this video at the same time made all of the sounds more realistic. You are absolutely a railroad fanatic that turned it into a passion. This felt like I was riding around in the land of giants with the picnic table and the bench swing high up in the air and the big pots of plants way off in the side. The chairs. It was such an emotional ride. Thank you

I loved this video, well done. It reminds me when 3 generations of my family, myself, father, and grandfather were building a model train set in the basement. If they were alive they absolutely would have been in awe of this creation as am I. BZ!

OMG. This is the ultimate "a boy and his toy". Lovely. The work to put this together is absolutely perfect. I can't wait to share with my brother. He had a nice one when we were kids and he had to play with me, his baby sister. Thank you for sharing this treasure. ❤

I am a nurse and I just finished my 12 hours night shift. I found this video while trying to relax and fall asleep after such a bad night. Finding your video was an amazing blessing. Thank you for helping me find some peace. ❤
@cbt19603 місяці тому
I’m so glad our video helped you relax after a rough night as a nurse. My late mother in law and grandmother were nurses so I know a little bit about how tough your job can be. Y’all are much too often taken for granted. Thank you for everything you do in one of the most demanding jobs out there. 😊👍👍👍

Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed the trip on our garden railroad. And it makes me happy that this video brought back memories of your husband. My dad was a locomotive engineer for the L&N/CSX railroad. I’m sure he would have enjoyed our little railroad also😃👍👍👍
@skulengu68543 місяці тому
I watched it all the way to the end even though I believed that I would exit the video after a minute or two. Everything about it reminded me of how much I love trains. Waving to them, riding them, walking the tracks (safely, of course), visiting train museums, etc. I even was a Plastic Injection Moulder for a model train company, although that was the only thing about trains that I didn’t enjoy. Ha ha! But it was so soothing to watch this video. I ignored the background details and got so engrossed that I was 11 minutes into the video before I realized there was train paraphernalia lining the fence! Wonderful!

This was absolutely fantastic to watch. The amount of time, work and attention to detail that has gone into constructing this miniature railway is almost beyond belief. I wold love to see this again through a wide angle lens, giving it the impression that it is actually bigger than it is in reality. However, in the meantime, I would just like to say, we’ll done and what an absolute pleasure this was to watch.👍🏻

Watching this made me think of my husband. He was a train and railroad aficionado and one of his favorite places to relax and unwind was at our local train station in Glendale, CA where he would shoot the breeze with the guys from a local train club. He would have loved this! I just wish Kurt were here to watch it with me. Thanks for reviving a very happy memory for me.

What an impeccable layout, the level of detail that went into this is outstanding. The man hours involved proves its a labor of love. I love the small details. The old rusted cart in the background. The water tower, the suspepend picnic table. Thank you for sharing.
