DYK The O-Train from Tunney's to Blair used take less than 24 minutes?! - Rear View Perspective
1Can you believe it, the O-Train used to make it all the way from Tunney's Pasture to Blair in less than 24 minutes..?! I had to re-watch the video to make sure there were no long missing parts because the video is so short and I was doubting my memory. The skip at 17:17 is about 2-3 seconds long at the most and is from my phone camera splitting the video file into 2 pieces.
The horrific metal squealing noise at 7:35 and 8:58 apparently is not supposed to happen and was an indicator of excessive wearing on the rails that was causing damage. Currently they go much slower at this section. This was also before they started running shorter trains during so called 'low' periods..
This is an old video from June 2022.. Back when the train was fast..

The ticking noise is my Radiacode 101 pocket gamma spectrometer & radiation dosimeter.
