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.

Griffith, Indiana RR Junction w/CN SD75I AND SD70I
We are back in Griffith, Indiana for the first time in 11 years. This junction was once one of the most complex in the world-FIVE railroads once intersected here! The EL-C&O joint line came in from the southeast and crossed the EJ&E and GTW mains. An NYC branch from Joliet paralleled the "J" and crossed everything as well. The "J" also had a branch to Porter, which headed straight east. The Porter branch was abandoned in 1985, and the EL was taken up in 1981, although a spur track remained to the north, which has since been severed. The C&O remains to the southeast to serve American Chemical. The NYC was closed on Conrail day, and torn up in 1978. Here a westbound CN freight swings off the GTW main and enters the EJ&E via the southeast connector. Power are two rare units-an EMD SD75I and an SD70I. Compare this video to the one I shot in 2000. ▶️

In Plymouth, Indiana, watch as a westbound G&W Hi-Rail truck elegantly crosses the diamond with the Elkhart & Western. This truck navigates the historic PRR Fort Wayne Line, now known as the Chicago Fort Wayne & Eastern. Did you know that until 1973, the PRR Vandalia Line from Logansport to South Bend also intersected here, creating a triangle of diamonds? Hi-railers must keep it slow, with a max speed of just 5 MPH on diamond frogs.
