Thought I would share 2 of my most recent train videos. The top is from Saturday May 21st, 2016 & the bottom is the most recent of Saturday May 28th, 2016. Please enjoy as these DME - Dakota Minnesota & Eastern Units are going to the Buffalo & Pittsburgh or some might go to scrap.
Plus bonus footage, (Which doesn't count for my best catches), of other trains I saw on though's 2 days as well. Below 2 videos are from Saturday May 21st, 2016 and below that is from Saturday May 28th, 2016.

Thanks. Also Thanks Rixter & Pittsburgh Railfan for liking it.
Nice ! Isn't it a good feeling when you go out rail fanning and make a good catch. I have to say that my best rail fanning day ever was in Tacony. I was shooting Conrail freights and Amtrak passenger trains. Then, in the distance, coming up from center city, the repainted GG1 #4935 showed it's whiskers in the distance. There was no mistaking it. I had enough time to get three photos as she roared up to and past the point where I was standing.
Sadly, I have misplaced the original slide, but this slide was transferred to my computer a few years ago. The quality is not good because the slide was old and had been in storage since the late seventies.
Nice Tom!

Thanks Bryan. Also thanks Mike. As to what Dan said, the top video with the 5 CSX Units and 3 DME's I had no clue was coming, but the most recent with the Citirail I did know it was coming because of Heritage Units website. I just didn't know he would go by so slow in order for me to get the 3 videos from 3 separate locations. That slide with the GG1 is really really awesome. I see the rail is jointed, but with the piece past that up to the GG1, is that welded?
