But, you can be get lost forever, coz those railroads have no maintenance from decades, the bridges could collapse & can injured them brutally. This is very very risky

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

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.

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.

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.

There are a few old logging railroad lines in WA and OR that look very similar, though. And some of those are actually legally abandoned, so possibly not illegal to ride on them? I know a few abandoned tracks in MT, ID, and WA, but I'm not sure if it is legal to be on those tracks. In Canada, unless the rails have been removed and officially converted to a public trail, that is a hard NO.
@scottb8175
@scottb8175 Жыл бұрын
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.

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.
