Wild horses were the highlight of our trip. And buffalo are always a thrill. But looking for more punch to our trip to TRNP, we had cast a wider net and also take in more of what North Dakota and eastern Montana had to offer.

High Speed Rail in the U.S. Needs to Happen

The United States has to set a near-term goal and apply a sense of urgency to reaching it, or high speed rail will flounder and cost way more than it should.

@@JuanAndino-oq6lk Muy bueno!
Do trains actually still run on these tracks?
12:32 The building at your 11 o'clock was oart of the old train station. There was a turntable to your 10 o'clock the old train tracks ran from your 9 oclock to your three oclock.
If your looking for touristy, go to Milford,PA., that's the next town.
Yeah, I don't know if I'm looking for touristy but I have thought about going back to Milford to film. Was there once during pre-youtube days.
Shopping in Matamoras (actually Westfall Township) is within walking in distance from where you were. In actuality, Port Jervis has few places to shop. Food stores (Price Chopper and Shop-Rite, good-sized strip mall, Lowe’s, Home Depot, WalMart, all in Westfall Township, just beyond the I-84 ramps.
That's what I was wondering. Thanks for the info.
North dakota is cheap
The wall you were describing? You were going the wrong way,this dude is wasting fuel driving around for a town that doesn't exist lol,ask around for manunka chunk tunnels,it's on route 46 on the border of white twp and knowlton twp
I climbed The Vessel back in 2019, before the suicides, and it was a fantastic experience. Very organic in feeling, and lots of views from all sides.
It looks as though there would have been a second track nearer to the canopy in Middletown.
@@jaygatz4335 could very well have been - that’s one thing I’ve noticed examining various old train stations is that there used to be more tracks back in the day
The monument may not be finished for another 10 years +
Not bad at all.
Light rails needs to elevated or underground, not on streets.
We love spending time in Springdale Utah. 0:52
It looked nice to me!
Is trenton a safe city?
That’s a good question. It’s not the safest but it isn’t all bad. Some close nearby towns were really nice. You have to be constantly aware of your surroundings but that is becoming the case in more and more places across the country. I’ve only been there during the day and some of the worst parts I’ve only seen on CZcams.
@@BillKing3456 Thanks..I'm planing to visit my Mom in Cherry Hill NJ from Boston. And that the nearest Amtrak Station. I usually used my car or a rental. But want to try the train. Something different.
@@dan1769 You might want to take Amtrak to Philly and then out to Cherry Hill from there. There are 2 separate Cherry Hill stations on two separate lines - PATCO and NJ Transit’s Atlantic City Line. The NJ Transit station though, while modern, is in a weird location = behind a shopping center. You can also get to the NJ Transit Atlantic City Line by walking over (close walk, at street level) from the Trenton Amtrak/NJ Transit station to the NJ Transit River Line (kind of a diesel-powered inter-urban light rail train that runs south, through nice towns, from Trenton down to Camden) where you would transfer to the Atlantic City Line at Pennsauken and go one stop east to Cherry Hill. Check times on NJ Transit’s website (or PATCO’s).
@@BillKing3456 Very Greatful for the Information..thanks a lot. That makes more sense.
No, you gotta be aware of your surroundings at all time. I was at the Trenton Train Station and went to check the train schedule board and this guy came out of nowhere behind me cause there was an ATM there. I didn't even see the ATM, I was checking the train board. Then he disappeared as quickly as he appeared.
It's The Velvet Underground. Lou Reed was a member of the group. They were not his group.
We loved the film and series called Fargo 😊
Ha now I have to watch it!
Live walking distance from the old O&W station. This particular line used to go through Sussex County , NJ and into Scranton, PA. The building was sold to a real estate developer in the late aught’s I think, he promised a lovely renewal at a town meeting (never delivered obviously). Then he kept not paying the taxes and finally the developer torched the place for insurance purposes. The last I heard he went to jail for nonpayment of taxes, who knows if he actually served any time. The second station was decommissioned in 1983, my husband rode that line on its last trip. It was turned into the library and it’s an absolutely lovely library. I’m glad you enjoyed my town 🙂
New York, Ontario, & Western. The Erie Railroad had a station, too, but moved commuter trains to its freight line which bypassed downtown.
Not a good idea to trespass on railroad property.
Beautiful video. Thanks for sharing. sub & 👍27
Thanks very much!
I worked at Ingersoll-Rand in Phillipsburg in the 1980's; I think there were approx. 1000 employees. Ingersoll Rand started there around 1903, and peak employment at the IR Phillipsburg site was around 5000 in the mid 20th century. This may help explain the presence of the train station. Based on my reading, the old IR site has been redeveloped, primarily into warehousing.
Thanks for this. I figured there had to have been something significant at this site.
Does this station have a screen showing the status of arriving and departing trains? I’ll be departing from here this July.
Thanks for the tour Bill ❤

The Joseph Smith Memorial Building is an office building for the Mormon church. It was originally built in 1911 as the Hotel Utah. My recollection is that it closed in the 1980s. One interesting thing you might have been interested in, between Helper and Provo, just before you descend into the valley where Provo is, used to be the town of Thistle. Thistle was largely a railroad town, it had the "helper" engines to help with going towards Helper. In 1983 there was a major landslide, which blocked a creek and -- with the melting snow from the mountains, quickly formed a lake that engulfed the town of Thistle and the railroad lines. You can still see some of the foundations of the building and the tracks were rerouted around the lake, with a new tunnel built.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing this info.

The RailRunner is the biggest fraud and waste of taxpayer money in state history.
Does marriman station go to penn station, can you pay at the kiosk? Also, we are riding in a 15 passenger van, would it it fit in the train station park? Is there a station in Chester that can take me to NYC? Thank you so much
Hey thanks for this, I love the pace, I really got a feel for the place
You're very welcome. My pleasure. Yeah, that's what I was trying to convey - the reality of what we experienced.
The largest fresh water lake, Lake Hopatcong! What's the largest Salt water lake 😂??
I know, when I read that “fact” I was thinking the same thing 😂.
Would love tonsee train service restored to williamsport.
Keep on dreaming!
So interesting seeing my hometown through someone else's eyes! I grew up in Belvidere and I moved for college almost 2 years ago. I'm not very far but I'm far enough to miss it sometimes!
Nice town! Consider yourself lucky to be from there. I liked it.
My God! You should have way more subscribers and views ! This was such a helpful, well made and interesting video. Thank you so much! Got a new subscriber. :)
Ssssssssorry ‘bout that bro.
everytime bro uses an S my headphones pierce into my brain
The building on 43rd street next to St. Michael's Church and school used to be The police station when I was going to the school around 1957, and this police station had a stable there for the mounted police which they road into the park and along then length of 5th avenue up to 60 street and back.
It's nice you can walk through Bedford Stuy alone now. Back in 1980 I guess it was dangerous.
Newburgh is the biggest historical town in New York state by far half the city is regulated what you can do to your house such as paint color
I live in the state of Florida now but I grew up in Warwick New York. Such a cute quaint town. I'm sure it's a lot more crowded now. I just happened to come across your channel because they had a report on the news about Chester, New York. It was in regards to the upcoming presidential vote. Sorry that nobody else made a comment but I'm glad and honored to have done so. God bless 💖🙏💖
Warwick and Chester don’t feel crowded, yet. I think the outward development from NYC and Rockland County has slowed.
@@BillKing3456 That's good to hear. Sometimes I miss it and sometimes I want to move back up there but I don't think I can handle the Winters anymore. I have a couple friends that still live there. She did tell me that it's grown a bit but the charm is still there. And I think that's what I miss the most. Thank you for your video. God bless you and your family and be safe 💖🙏
When you drove under the underpass, that area is called "the acre". The Delaware river tends to flood this area, so unfortunately those nice houses there are not occupied because of this.
It's a nice station. It was used in the film Far from Heaven.
Have to see that movie now! Thanks for the info.
@@BillKing3456 It's at the very end of the movie. It was also featured in the 2003 film Mona Lisa as well.
Born and raised in Williamsport. I left for the Army in 1987. I rarely make it back...but love it each time i do. Thanks for the vid!
Hi is this the classic cabins ?
I think so. There were also units in a few multi-story buildings but the cabins are nicer from what we saw.
The homeless gather at that old station, i really hope they get their act together when it comes to that O&W station
I lived in Middletown from 1977 to 1986. The very old O&W station was dilapidated during that time period too.
Don’t think I could afford where most of this wonderful video was filmed. I’ve been researching the suburbs of Greenville. Overwhelming!! So many great towns think I’m down to two, TR & Simpsonville,,,any thoughts..? Budget is $400k
I hear ya. Take a look at Clemson. It looked nice, the parts we saw.
I grew up in Middletown. It was much nicer back in the 70's. It's now a suberb of the city. Not nearly as nice.
At 19:13 ,left side of screen the sandwich shop there with the green sign makes a superior sandwich . Turkey breast with cole slaw and thousand Island dressing is the bomb . At least at 15 years it was
it's still there. Pocono Bagel. Best sandwiches in the area.
