RBBB  circus train headed east last Tuesday on the CSX Cap Sub.

Prototype for Atlas sectional track.  This has been sitting here for quite a while, I believe at some point CSX will be replacing the track that crosses US Route 30.  This crossing has been an almost constant pain in the a$$ for local travelers for last few years.  Apparently there is a culvert/drain pipe under the westbound lane and it has collapsed in some form twice now.

I also stopped at the crossing near the end of the Utz factory for a couple of shots for my personal layout, to get an idea of building height and details around the unloading area for cooking oil.

30 seconds of "Gee, look at all the neat stuff I've videoed!" intro? Really? :eye-rolling:

It's what happens when Youtube makes anyone a production company...

Not that I'm complaining, I've done LOTS of virtual railfanning on Youtube.

You know you can skip that?

It's not my video or Star Wars, so you should skip that...

"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..."

Ha! Sure, easily skipped... but on first play you don't know it until you get to the real content. A little self-promotion is OK, but 20% of the vid? One- or two-second blips of each intro scene is enough to establish cred. He'll learn.

Its become a running joke on Youtube that any video you watch you can skip the first 45 seconds.

I wish Youtube had a 30 sec skip button like most DVR/DVD remotes have now, that would be awesome!
