Train Goes Into Emergency While Switching In Yard, Six Axle Genset Hauls Riverbank Job.

Welcome to the channel. This video was shot on the morning of February 21, 2024. I originally went to Oakdale with the high hopes of capturing two BNSF Dash 9s hauling a grain train over Sierra Northern Track, but to my disappointment that train had already left sometime during the night. However, I did not leave empty handed. While driving by the Oakdale yard, I happened upon Sierra Northern’s “Riverbank Job” switching cars in the yard. I took the opportunity to get some footage as I have none with trains in the Oakdale yard. The crew was friendly and didn’t seem to mind my filming. While switching cars the train did go into emergency, which is something I had never seen or captured on film. The conductor quickly located and corrected the issue so the train was not down very long. The images of the switching was a good catch, in my opinion, as it depicts how a train crew sorts cars and builds a train. Plus I was right next to the action. I’ll apologize in advance as the lighting was terrible and I was forced to shoot into the sun 🌞. Once I realized this was the Riverbank Job, I decided to stay with the chase as up until that time I had no footage of this job. I’m not that familiar with this job, but understand it’s a daily job from Oakdale to Riverbank and return. I believe Sierra services several industries on the job, including the army depot in Riverbank. This video also captures more images of ex UPY Genset #895, which is a six axle RP20CD Genset locomotive built on an SD40 frame. This makes it a bit larger than the other Gensets. Genset #52 is paired with 895 and leads the train west. Genset #52 is the first generation Genset built by the Sierra and is painted in their paint scheme. Sit back and enjoy as I chase this job west from Oakdale.
