Blasting down bad track Doubleheader on the ND&W Railway (Maumee and Western)

Published on Mar 31, 2017

PREX 1603 leading PREX 3054 blasts down the former Wabash Railroad's 5th District! Lol actually I condensed 6 minutes of the train crawling down the track! This is only the third time I've gotten a pair on one of their trains so I was pleased to see them. The line was most recently the Maumee and Western Railroad (MAW) before being purchased by Pioneer RailCorp. Maintenance was deferred for decades on this stretch of track. Pioneer has done a great job rehabbing the worst parts but some pockets like this still exist.

1. K&R. I'm surprised they can travel that track at all, no matter how slowly. nt

2. You ever see The Taking of Pelham 123 from the 1970s

The part where Walter Matthew, in the beginning, is tasked with showing Japanese representatives of how the New York transit system is the best in the world, and how to improve your own, always gets me.

We cannot teach anyone shit anymore.

3. Wow, that's some gnarly track...

5. Absolutely disgusting that we have a railroad system(s) in such deplorable condition.

Glad to see the railway company has begun repairing, but looks like they have a lot more to do.
