Our VRF Grab Bags (GB) videos are compiled from content from our cameras as Mods and fans spot something neat while watching our cameras. In the GB you will, of course, find a variety of TRAIN content, special trains, maintenance, steam, diesels, interesting rail cars, cool paint schemes and more. You will also find fun people, city events, boats, planes, cars (sometimes going wild) and nature. Thank you for taking the time to sit back and enjoy these highlight reels that we call "Grab Bags"!

Lol, the open hatch on the tanker at the end with the VRF logo superimposed on it- totally awesome

Beautiful capture of an OWL!!! What a bonus. I have a collection of plush and statue owls, so to see one in action is definitely a joy!

RIP to Sgt. Thomas Arthur Petschke Jr. of Crestwood, Kentucky, who died of a medical emergency while responding to a structure fire near Goshen.

I love the great horned owl and the birds in Cumberland, but the cortege in LaGrange was what really touched my heart. RIP Sgt. Petschke.

Wow! Great catching all the trains, including an owl in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Virtual Railfan, thank you.

[danmiller]

@27:07, that car cleared every rail! He’ll need to check his under carriage but that was a good jump. Hope his back survived!😂

That flock of birds swooping past the camera reminds me of the Hitchcock movie..."The Birds!"😂😂

[nicolehamm]

My cat perked up and noticed that owl moving! Thank you for the close up.

I always liked it that Cryo-Trans named each of their boxcars!

Seeing that tank car with an open lid reminds me of an occasion when we had a tank container with an insecure lid which had blown open like that. The problem was that the lid had been bouncing against the 25kv overhead line for an hour or so and this had spot welded the container to the twist locks. When the crane tried to lift the container the wagon was coming as well. Cue cutting gear! This was about 40 years ago, I think it was a Felixstowe to Trafford Park train. (I'm talking about a Freightliner train in the UK, by the way).

[treos]

wow we just shipped that passenger car out of my terminal the other day

Great Video. Looks like the Dukes of Hazard were having a Tryout in La Plata, MO. 😬👍🙏

Thought the duke boys was from Georgia, LOL

Great seeing the anthracite road heritage engines. Lehigh Valley looks good pulling the Apollo

[kennethfuller]

I love the cameras in Cumberland, my home town for 20 yrs. (The C&O, B&O, and WM days) and I still drive 7.5 hrs. once or twice a year to go back and visit. I've been a railfan since childhood, and VR brings it right to my desktop .. thanks to all who make it possible. ❤

[ChainsawNW]

Great footage and meet in Roanoke Eastbound dropping the signal, great horned owl 🦉, wave from Conductors!👍🛤🚂

[BradRains]

That's like the 3rd or so "Flying Darwin" at La Plata in the last few years.

[RFAurora]

Love the old BN logo. Always looked like a crocodile with its mouth open to me.
