Hey trainzers, I spoke to a foreman on the SJVR line who said this was ok, but it looked kind of dangerous for a short line, Maybe 20 MPH!? They went 40, what do you guys think?

There's nothing wrong here, and the dust is ballast dust from that nice new ballast they put down.

While the video is low quality, I'm fairly safe in saying I've seen worse rocking on the BNSF near my house. they moved though there at 30-40 for years and never had a problem, and this was near a major station as well.

I've seen rocking and swaying much worse than that, at higher speeds. That said, it's something I wish train sims captured.
