Abandoned Waterfront Caboose House Hidden in the Woods!

Күн бұрын

What a find! In 1986 a husband and wife purchased the 100 acre farm for $90,000. They lived in the farmhouse and continued to farm for a number of years. They decided to place an old caboose and rail car at the very back of the property to use as a cabin. Later they let a man live there off grid and he built a 2 bedroom addition on the back of the caboose. Once the owners passed away the man moved out and the property was sold in 2003. The farmhouse was demolished but the off grid caboose house sits abandoned and nature is slowly taking over. Thanks again to Rob for letting me know about this amazing location.

About me:
I have been exploring abandoned places since I was a child and now I would like to film the explores and share the videos with you.
My father took me to my first abandoned house when I was 7 years old. I remember going into the house and a old farmer came in and told us "we better watch out as the floors are all rotten and unsafe". Ever since that day I was hooked on exploring abandoned places.
If you have a location you would like to share with me or want me to explore for you please send me an email at abandonedurbexcanada@hotmail.com and I will give you full credit for the share in the description and during the video if you choose.

My father-in-law worked his entire career on the railroad. The first car you explored (beginning at 3:12) looks like a bunkhouse. The men would sleep in them when they were out in the middle of nowhere fixing the tracks. Love the channel, and the way you’re always respectful of the sites you visit.

@johnrebel9539 Ай бұрын

A friend of mine bought a caboose. They are very heavy & require a crane to lift on & off a low boy flatbed. They weigh around 22 tons. He was a truck driver & knew a local heavy crane company so it kept the cost of moving down. I would love to ask him more details but unfortunately he died from covid. RIP Red Beard

Thanks for saying what it was before it became a medicine cabinet. So it would have opened from the right? Of course! It’s a right handed world. Us lefties make up approximately one in nine people. Even baby strollers come with the bottle/beverage holders on the right side. Oh well, we soon learn to adapt.

That extended cab Nissan looks exactly like the one my Aunt & Uncle drove for most of the 80's. During the summers, when my uncle changed shifts in the oilfield industry, I spent hours sitting on one of those uncomfortable jump seats catching a ride to visit my grandparents. The jump seats were so low I couldn't see out the windows, and I'd bring a few books to read, but my uncle chatted to me most of the trip - probably to stay awake - so I rarely got any reading done! Thanks for sharing this explore.

What a great find and exploration! I kept imagining what it all looked like back in the day. I bet it was really cool! I am thinking the shed that is made out of garage doors was probably a workshop of some sort and the wood was stored in the rail car. The layout of the caboose and addition to it is so neat along with the location right next to the river! I can just imagine that awesome greenhouse with beautiful flowers and green foliage in it. I am also thinking that at one time squatters lived there and the place was ransacked. I can't believe all the stuff that was left there, like the snowmobile and vehicles and so forth and that school bus is great. Stay safe out there Brent! Wonderful video, thank you! 👍😊

the carriages were removed from the carts and the first of them seemed to be used as a carpentry workshop, in the video several times in the frame, a shed for drying lumber, with lumber inside, as well as a bunch of machines for working with wood, and the school bus was most likely completely removed from the chassis. ..
