The best thing about exploring on rails is that you can never really get lost

The world salutes in amazement those hard men of steel who had laid those Railroad Tracks and built those Timeless Tunnels and Railroad Bridges in these rugged and torturous terrain cutting through endlessly awesome and breathtakingly beautiful landscape !!

That's the E&N Railway's [mile 14, Victoria Sub] Niagara Canyon Bridge they're rolling over at the beginning[ 260 ft high.] Arbutus Canyon [mile 14.9 ] is the other bridge [225 ft high]

The sound of the wheels hitting the rail joints is fantastic.....

Just plain Awesome !!, thanks for the efforts and sharing, cheers.

AWESOME video! You are so fortunate to be somewhere you can do this....FUN! (old timer logger)

The railroads build the coolest bridges and tunnels, just amazing.

Wow! That was AWESOME! I am always on edge thinking a train is going to come barreling down the other way!!!!! Great stuff! Thanks for sharing!!!!!

This is epic. I want to build one now 😆😆 Thanks for sharing. 👏👏👏

Best rail video I've seen like this.👍😎

Fantastic video footage and railroad scenery. I will be sharing your video link with my subscribers. Thank you.

Very cool. It would be a great way to spend a sunny afternoon. Good footage Jason

Those bridges got my blood pressure up.

I think I have just found my new favorite hobby 😍

Try to hold your shot at least :03 seconds!

"I thought we were gonna have a beer!" lol

I’d shit my pants going over them trestles but this looks awesome! 😵

What fun! I'm officially jealous!

I want to do that. I've actually dreamt of doing that! Friggin FANTASTIC 😘

Just amazing! Those viaducts terrify me lol

First time seeing this .. Its freak8n Awesome !!!

Man that is cool, bring your camping kit...water, food, etc. That is a hell of an idea for SHTF.

Totally awesome ride and views.

this was fun thanks for the ride! just subd but i have to say i use to love heights even rappelled in the Army from helicopter's! i don't know how but many years later i became acrophobic for no good reason! It sucks because i loved rappelling! I'll be 57 this year and feel like a wussy watching you over the trestle!

Years ago (early 1980's) I built a gas powered railcar that I ran on the Tacoma to Elbe railway. I was building a log home south of Graham at the time. Lots of fun running along the east side of lake kapowsin and further south. I remember there was this old tracked crain halfway tipped over on the south end of the lake. Wonder if it's still there

That is an spectacular place and also the video. I would die to do something like that, thanks for sharing, I love this video :)

That looks like quite the scenic ride!

😍😍😍😍 THAT IS AWESOME !!! I WILL PAY TO GO ON A RIDE !!!

This is bloody amazing. I’d love to do that.

This looks like a blast.

You guys are lucky, to have such wonderful good tracks. The abandoned tracks I've ever seen are deteriorated and overgrown beyond hope. I was kinda excited when the old cotton belt railway here in Dallas was abandoned, but then, they tore up all the tracks. I built a rail bike for nothing.

That scenery is so beautiful

Hey, where is this? At first I thought it was the E&N with Little Niagra, Hole In The Wall, Saanich inlet and Mt Finlayson but now I'm not sure. Sure looks like fun though!

I used to do this with my dad in his rail car. Probably the reason for not telling where they are is that it is illegal activity. No railroad owner is going to give a private rail car owner permission to use their abandon tracks. Too many safety issues, wash outs, tree falls, etc. It was great fun but very unsafe at times. There are clubs you can join that run these rails with permission and a hefty insurance policy.

It's amazing that you can do this in other countries, with such huge open spaces.

this is Port Alberni to Parksville on Vancouver island the rail line goes around Cameron lake

Looking like some ghost movie... dangerous bridge....dark tunnel....no one around u....broken railings....camera just near the track.....sound/friction of wheels with rail..... Looking as some unknown third force is all behind this journey through the jungle.👍👍

That is so Way Cool - A Ride I'd Love to Take

Thanks for sharing your adventures! I'm so jealous. I was actually hiking this very line about a year ago. FYI, it is an active line further up, as the ICF is still moving freight for its customers.

Not sure if I was more mesmerized by that gorgeous granite tunnel or the 400 foot high tressel. Either way, great video, thank for sharing! Any plans to come down to Hopland and ride along the Eel river in CA?!?! Lots of dead line there to explore! Message me because I'd love to come along!

That is freaking COOL👍🏻😎

For an abandoned railroad the trestles are in great shape especially the ties

Impressive footage

fantastic!

That is so awesome

SUPERB! I wish we had amazing abandoned rail tracks in UK like this Id build a speeder!!

Very cool. I have a friend that builds and rides these here in Kansas.

love to have the plans to build a speeder...

I remember going over that trestle on the dayliner many years ago, yeah it's high alright!

I’m thinking about buying an old 2seater go kart frame and building a rail speeder out of it and a trailer so I can go camping too!

That is freaking neat

Lugar bonito , ficou ótimo seu trolinho , parabéns !

What are those extra rails about on the trestle bridges? I would guess they are there to either strengthen the bridge or actually keep the train on the track in the event of a derailment. It is confusing as you sometimes see this on lines where mixed gauge rolling stock is deployed.

Those bridges are crazy

Nice ride... Thanks

love old railways

omg that looks like fun. How does a person go about doing this. Thanks for the video

Beautiful scenery, what was shown of it. Neat little cart. Just my opinion, don't go fast over the bridges....someone may of put a jack rod to throw the cart off the track.....not a pleasant ending. Hope to see more videos in the future. And if you do, please show more of the scenery and do a little narrating of the locations and so forth. Hello and happy trails from Rick H of Malta, Texas.

Imagine a ghost steam engine chugs in front of ur rickety trolley 🤣

It would be nice to know the history of the rails that they are on and why the are abandoned.

Just so cool 😎

I'M SOO JEALOUX.. FANTASTIC..I'LL PAY FOR A RIDE/TRIP/ADVENTURE:-).KEEP RAILIN..GOD BLESS..KEEP GOIN..LOVE FROM DENMARK

Wow ang saya naman dyan at ang ganda pa ng view ingat kayo idol full support 💖

Wonderful way to travel. I assume there are no trains running at the same time.

That is cool beyond words. Is it light enough to lift to turn it around or do you have to partially disassemble?

OK; great, beautiful. Now, please: the location of this well intact yet decommisioned track? (by the dialogue, sounds like somewhere in BC?)

BRILLIANT 👍👍👍👍 👍👍👍👍👍THUMBS UP👍👍👍👍👍

This is really cool, it would be neat if you could show some video of your Speeder, maybe you could put up a video and tell us a little about it, I would also like to know what State your speeder is going through, it looks like northern California, Montana, or Colorado, and what RR Line it use to be, maybe UPRR, GNRR, or DRGRR. My father was a Engineer for DRGRR UPPRR my brother retired UPRR, & he was all over the mountains in California, my Father was in Colorado.

What an awesome adventure 👍

How Awesome !! I want to do it !

I'd bet that track is not abandoned. Dis-used or out of service, maybe, but probably not abandoned. The reason rail riding / biking is not very popular in Canada is because generally there is no where to legally do it. In Canada, if the rails are still in place, you would likely be trespassing on railway property (a much more serious offense than a misdemeanor, as in the USA). In Canada, abandoned rails are typically pulled up as soon as they are abandoned. Then the land ownership is transferred to the federal or local government or adjacent property owners. I know of a few possibly abandoned tracks that may exist in southern Ontario and Quebec, maybe. There was an unused CN track that went from Pukatawagan to Lynn Lake in Manitoba that hadn't seen a train since 2002, but I believe some local First Nations now own the property / track, if it is still there. It was still intact last time I was there, in 2010. One adventurous person / nutjob I heard about rode a quad down those tracks in the dead of winter. It took three days and many trees had to be chopped from the tracks. At least (most of) the black bears would have been sleeping. Finding intact abandoned track in the west is less likely than finding bigfoot bones.

I be scared shitless crossing that trestle

this is the American dream in action.🇺🇸🍻

This is the E&N railway on the malahat!

god DAMN this looks fun

Hi, and thanks for the tour. Is this road open to the public?

falcon trestle gave me the willies..and i'm sitting in bed !

Boy”are we ever high” ……. ya sure ya want another adult beverage ?😂

Nice video. What are the extra rails on bridges and trestles for?

That is absolutely amazing. Beautiful country, yet sad at the decay of railroads. Thanks for sharing. Can you tell me where this is, even if it's just a general geographic location?

I love this. Have you ever met a train?

Great Video.... Question...why does everyone use a noisy engine?? Has nobody ever heard the Honda with a noise surprising muffler??? Just asking...

very nice...

'That's a nice rail speeder"

Is that Goldstream River bridge? Looks very similar. I rappelled off of it once. If you think riding on it is scary, try going ~100 m down the valley vertically.

Wow, how did they build those bridges....

Hello good sir, any chance this beast is operational and available to be borrowed for a day. Looks like a blast, that would be an awesome experience.

Question, do you ever run into other rail kart enthusiasts? If so, is there a procedure for passing each other? Is it just helping each other lift a cart off and on the track? :)

Thank You , is the some trackage on the old NWP line between Eureka and Willits?

That's a real nice speeder build. Where did you get the wheels may I ask?

Tacoma Rails Mountain Division, well north of Elbe and Just across from Eatonville

That's really cool! Are the tracks active? What's with the narrow gauge rails on the bridge? Thanks for posting.

Very cool footage - sweet rail speeder indeed! What railroad is this? and where?

Where are these old lines located? Cool video!

Good job

Where is this? Millions of people are not going to flock this RR... Many of us live thousands of miles from wherever this is. So please give us a name of the railbed this used to belong to. Spectacular trestles.! Wonderful ride! Looks like the Kettle Valley RR but those rails were removed long ago. I will assume this is Canada? Where in canada

where is this line? its in amazing shape!

Is this rail line near Yosemite, California? With the combination of trees, dry brush, and a river in a steep narrow canyon it makes me think of the area near Don Pedro Reservoir.

Thanks for not telling us where it is...

Is this the Northwestern Pacific line, from Ukiah to Eureka? Looks like the Eel River country, there.
