UP 1483 LRS51 Local Switching AMG Resources - McKinley Ave. Railroad Crossing, Lathrop CA 4 Gates

Описание: May 22, 2024 12:12pm
After the Z-Train and a grainer got through, the 51 job got the clear to come off the Tracy Sub onto the Fresno Sub at the Lathrop Wye to go work AMG Resources Corperation recycling plant and passes and pokes the double crossing getting both functions of this crossing in this video. At one time, I also got all four gates down as the train backed onto the Fresno Sub caused an activation and time out of the closer crossing.

Union Pacific Railroad LRS51 Local freight train on the UP Tracy Sub onto the UP Fresno Sub passing through and poking the McKinley Avenue double railroad crossing on the Lathrop Wye in Lathrop, California doing switching moves at AMG. The road ahead was closed down the way. Also, this crossing is eventually planned to be rebuilt for the ACE Valley Rail Project.
