That poor truck owner...but the steam engine footage was wonderful--especially with everybody waving at everybody else and the Amish guys in black and white. The lightning in Big Sandy was beautiful, and the car show in Revy was a blast--thanks for another great one!

The black and white footage at 8:16 is the best yet - if not for the modern string lights in the foreground, it would be perfect. Is it 2024 or the early 1900's?

Beautiful cars at Revelstoke. Been there done that fighting a car fire. Been a volunteer firefighter for 47 plus years. Let the young whipper snappers do it now. lol. Question.when Amtrak breaks down and a rail company hooks up to it does the Amtrak crew drive the train or does the rail company provide engineers? Always wondered. lol. Thanks. Bruce in Wv!!!

A guy 3 blocks down from me was rebuilding a Charger. Not sure what year but it was an older one. Had most of the body done and finally got the engine running right. Closed it up and locked it for the night. Left a cigarette burning in the ashtray... Raise your hand when you think you know where this is going. Long story short: The fire department had to pry the hood and both doors open. Even the taillights were melted. This truck reminds me of that.
