Step onto the captivating world of Hotrail Productions, where the magic of lights, camera, and trains combines to create an unforgettable experience. I travel all over the country photographing railroad history in the making. My footage dates back to 1995. Whether it's a thrilling action sequence or a heartwarming romantic scene, the railway has long been a favorite setting for filmmakers and TV producers.

As the light fades at Wellsboro, Indiana, an eastbound CSX tank train grinds up the grade from Water Street and slowly crosses the CN (ex-GTW) Battle Creek Subdivision. Leading the charge are a pair of GE AC4400CW locomotives, working hard as they drag the heavy consist over the diamonds. But the action doesn’t stop there—just as the last car clears, a westbound train roars into the scene, accelerating past with a GE ES44DC and a standout EMD SD40-3 in the eye-catching “SpongeBob” paint scheme bringing up the power! A perfect dusk meet with nonstop action at one of the Midwest’s best railfan hotspots.

Action at Wellsboro, Indiana, as a westbound Canadian National freight rolls across the ex-B&O Garrett Subdivision. Leading the charge is a sharp-looking pair of GE ES44AC locomotives—one in classic CN paint and the other representing Kansas City Southern, creating a great mix of power on this manifest. This busy diamond crossing always delivers, and today’s catch is no exception with this eye-catching lashup pounding the rails. 📍 Filmed in Wellsboro, Indiana 📅 September 2, 2022 If you enjoy mainline freight action, foreign power, and classic Midwest railroading, be sure to like, comment, and subscribe for more!
