This is one train ride I'm glad I missed!

Train Running Through A Tornado -
Here is something you do not see too often.
This video came from a fellow who works for the RR as a train dispatcher..
Every once in a while he sends a cool video involving trains. This is one of them.
Trains nowadays mount cameras in their cabs, facing forward and backward, the same way police cars do.
This video is a rear view camera. This is video of a train that ran through a tornado..
First there is the normal rear view from the last of three engines, with the trees looking normal. Then you begin to see rain, and then, halfway through the video the trees begin to sway violently . . . And then it begins.

Dadgumm now I been thru a tornado and a trainwreck all in one day :drinkers:
 
I work for the Railroad and now that they're mounting cameras in locomotives there are some great videos out there on what actually happens in front of a train.
 
Awesome video. Sure shows the power of Mother Nature when she's on a rampage! Thanks for sharing.
Would love to see other train videos as I grew up around trains - my dad was an Engineer for Union Pacific RR.
 
Did anyone get hurt or killed on the train? That was amazing video.
 
Right there with u, 64conv...... I work for the railroad, too, and it's amazing what can happen out there, even when you're doing everything right!!!!
 
Wow that is wild! It give's a new meaning to "it sounded like a freight train!"
 
I saw that video not long ago when the tornado out break happened in Alabama. You know how you get on YouTube and find different videos after you seen enough of what you was looking for? LOL
