The ONLY bad part about a Hobo Shoestring video adventure is when the video ends. You inspire so many people, including kids. You are a gift to this community your legacy lives on. Thank you 🇺🇲🛤
Hi Big Ireland Fan 3yrs
Godspeed Mr. Nichols, Thank you for all you gave, and have given.. You will be missed..✌
Hey shoestring. This is the truck driver that said hi to you in piney flats TN a couple of weeks ago. Stay safe out there.
The guy who have Shoestring the Granola bars and the 20 spot? You're a mensch, Sir. 🖖🙂
Beautiful, so good to see you again, now my weekend is complete. Thank you shoestring for another peak into rail life. Stay safe and God bless
Shoestring,
I hope you know how much value and joy you bring to so very many people.
We all ride the rails vicariously through your travels.
Stay safe brother.
Blessings from Oklahoma
P.S Happy 6th Birthday Luke!!!
This man is the king of hobos a walking encyclopedia living on the rails right on Shoestring you da man ✌️
Bishop Shoestring he certainly is today 😇
@@noneshere your so right and im devastated now
I'm probably subscribed to about 500 channels here on youtube, i get more excited to get a new video notification from Shoestring than i do any of the rest of them
He's better than TV lol
😎 DEFiNiTELY !!! ✨️💪💯...
Made my Saturday always looking forward to knowing your doing well and safe I'll always keep you in my prayers
I have that pack. It is the Marine ILBE (Improved Load Bearing Equipment) Gen 2. Best way to tell between gen 2 and 1 is the tan padding vs the black padding for gen 1. Its designed by Arcteryx and mafuctured by Proper. There is an assault pack that goes with it and clips on the back. There is a corpsman version as well which is even bigger and even a predecessor that is huge and are pictured to be on donkeys when the "horse soldiers" went into Afghanistan. The ILBE didn't last long though, as the design was before the next round of body armor and the pack didn't ride well with the plate carriers and were soon replaced with the FILBE pack.
❤ Travel on Shoestring ❤ Thanks for taking us with you!! You are generous in sharing your adventures. May God richly Bless you, brother Mark.
Hi Shoestring ,world famous Hobo ,there is not one bit of ugliness in you brother quite the opposite you bring a ray of happiness and hope into mine and probably a lot of other peoples lives 🇦🇺👍
Agree 1000%!
So very true indeed
💯0 % FACTS HOBO IS THE MAN !!!
Mid-50's here, it doesn't get any easier with the mystery joint and muscle pains! Makes my day seeing you out there adventuring!
first thing I think every morning: "what's gonna hurt today?"
Shoestring is the last of his kind folks. Believe it. He's one of the most interesting people on CZcams.
How entertaining is this? I turned off an apple plus tv program to watch my man HSS from Idaho. Outstanding video ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful country shoestring thanks for taking us along with you. Stay safe during your travels & most importantly have a great time 😊
I got cancer surgery in my leg end of this month at Shands in Gainesville Florida, but soon as I recover I'm heading out too.
I just ordered more 96 gallon trash bags. They're the best hot weather bivy bag there is.
You can even ride a nice flat lip porch grainer out of town looking like trash bags left on deck.
✌️
Shoestring sure does know his Rail Lines, he's a wealth of knowledge.. Your a great American brother Shoestring an Old School Gem.. Safe Travels brother
Glad to see you back on and taking it easy out there
on the tracks and seeing the wheels going over the
tracks and the boards were moving, another great video
just be careful and have fun seeing the country, Thank You
very much Shoestring.👋🤠✌️
🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🇺🇲💨
Good morning Mark good view of the Diamond close by.. every time I see your videos I have a good day.
👍👍🙏🚂🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃 . 🇨🇦
Hey Shoestring, I live between Sandpoint and Bonners Ferry in a town called Naples. Glad to see you made it this way. It’s Going to start getting colder and wetter at night in a hurry. If you head north and start camping be aware of grizzly bears and moose. Stay safe
Lake Pend Oreille is Idaho’s biggest, at 43 miles long with 111 miles of shoreline. It’s also the deepest (at 1,158 feet deep, there are only four deeper lakes in the nation). Dug out by Ice Age glaciers and located amid three major frontal ranges of the northern Rocky Mountains.
Very interesting. Check out Lake Chelan in WA as it's very beautiful.
Lake Chelan in Washington State is a bit deeper, 1486' deep. Who knows what's down there?
Crater Lake DEEPEST IN NORTH AMERICA
@@kens.213a democrat that makes sense… ✌🏻
@@MISCIFMAKERGreat Slave Lake in the Northwest Territories, at 2015 feet,is the deepest lake in North America.
I was in the train yard when you were old Man back in eighty nine.. I sure do miss riding the rails.
At the 1:30 mark, when you point the camera up, the draw there. My wife's grandparents owned most all of that land. Her Grandpa was the one who would break the Budweiser Clydesdales that you would see on tv. Another cool thing about Bonners Ferry. That's where a lot of the hops are grown for beer as well, but that's on the other side of town, and my best friend is the head mechanic for all the equipment. It's crazy to see on your video a place that I'm frequently at. I hope you enjoyed it there.
Thank you for the videos. I look forward to every single one. I learn something new Everytime. Absolutely breathtaking views
I had the same thing happen to my hand this past week. It took two full days to get most of my function back. Great to see you on the rails again.
Grew up in Spokane, good to see you out that way.
Sandpoint was a pretty decent place back in the day too.
Great video, appreciate you!
Awesome content Shoestring. I'm glad you took your winter gear.I think it snowed in Utah if I heard right. Enjoy the time you spend with us.
Thank you for the info on the four way. Never seen that before. Safe travels 🛤️🛤️
Love the vids man, keep up the good work
Pinched nerve is nothing to joke with. I’m recovering from surgery back in May. Docs removed a piece of bone that was putting pressure on the nerves. Got titanium rods and screws in my neck. Physical therapy daily resistance training etc. So far so good. The last thing to return to normal is my hands. Still have pin and needles and my grip is back 100%.
Best thing about my surgery? I quit smoking! Been a smoker since 1972. Can’t smoke because the nicotine can cause a reaction that slows down the recovery process.
Love the videos. Looking like you’re going hit 200k subscribers soon 👍🏻
I'm tramping to cancer surgery in Gainesville Florida end of this month.
Tumor trying to grow under a siatic nerve.
You rite, nerve pain will make you want to die.
But some of the drugs make you the living dead too. Make you walk rite into fire without a thought.. Best of wishes, keep living 👍
J.B. THAT'S GREAT YOU STOPPED 🚬 SMOKiNG & YOU ARE RiGHT ABOUT CiGS MAKE YOU HEAL UP SUPER SLOW AND CAUSE TONS OF PROBLEMS ✨️💪💯...
you know its going to be a good day when shoestring uploads
Awesome place. 👌 nice and cooler up there. Have fun shoestring.

Great video Shoestring. I always learn so much from you. Stay safe!!!!!!!
Good to see ya out on the rails. Thank You for the update. Stay Safe !
ThNks for showing the way tracks cross other tracks. I wondered how.
Always look forward to your videos! Thanks for showing the dancing rocks.That was cool ! Stay safe.😀
Hi Mark ! Love the update vidieo!!! Safe travels.
Beautiful scenery
Great to see another video. You live the life so many of us dream of. Although I do occasionally take a short ride life does not allow me to spend much time on the rails. Thank you for giving me the knowledge to be able to do this.
Thanks for another great video Shoestring !! Ride that train 'till it run out of track, can't wait for the riding video and scenery it will bring us. Hope the arm gets better:)
Sweet. Be safe out there. Good to ya healthy and happy.
You have some great adventures that most of us can only think about. Good video, Shoestring. Can't wait for the next one. Be safe out there. 🚂

Hey Shoestring that was a very interesting video. A lot of beautiful country. Thanks and you take care!👍❤️
Always good to see a new video. Take care of that shoulder and get well soon. Stay safe out there too.
Love your stories, be safe oldtimer 👏👍🙏🇺🇸🇸🇰
First RR tracks that crosses each other. Very cool!! I can listen to that track sound all day long! I live right along the CSX tracks, one mile from the Ohio/Pa line. We have trains constantly
Shoestring rocks! Great to see you, your videos are so good! Thanks for taking us with you on your railway travels😊👍🇺🇸⭐️
Amazing video Shoestring. 👏👏
Standpoint is a spectacular location and I have good memories of the place from years ago. Used to run the old highway bridge for daily PT-what a picture perfect Lake Pend Oreille. Stay safe.
Thank you for the upload. Stay safe Mark, God bless you 👍
Your knowledge of geography is amazing!! Of course so is your railroad knowledge!!! Quite intellectual you are!!!! Keep up the good work!!!
Good to see you. Out on the rails. Hope your arm is feeling better. Prayers to you. Stay safe.
Another cool vid, Mark, love it. Glad to see you got yourself a new water key, that's important.
Good to see you Shoestring, as always!
🙏 Thank yo for featuring my old stomping grounds.
It's a beautiful neck of the woods and I'm so glad to see it again. Much love Shoestring!
Always a good time when Hobo Shoestring comes around. Thanks and praying for you. From Highland falls New York
Good to see you again hobo shoestring. I would go see a Dr about your hand. Thank you for sharing your travels
Good to see you again Mark. Stay safe out there Shoestring!
Greetings from Coeur d'Alene! I have the same pack and I love it. Cheers.
Sorry to hear about your shoulder. I have almost the exact same problem and I decided to try stretching by finding something to grab on to and, and then leaning away using my body weight to apply pulling pressure straight out to the side. Sort of the same direction and motion you would use to set a dislocated shoulder. I do that when I get up and before I go to bed, just for about 2 minutes. If it starts to hurt or tingle anywhere I just ease up a little. It's been getting better for me every day.
You've got to love hearing diamonds getting pounded by a freight, nice shot too, an adventure either way even if You didn't catch out yet,entertaining and always interesting watching Your video's Man. Hope Luke had a great Birthday and always like seeing those locomotives moving tonnage!🛤🚂
I like how you show everyone the little things we have to do to survive like the Water Key to get a good bird bath going. You be good there Shoe my boy! Keep them rails hot & ride'n'em a whole lot! Keep on truck'n forth!
You’re knowledge of the rails and places to Camp places to charge your devices direction trains travel is priceless
That ride to eastport is fantastic. Definitely off the beaten path.
I got a good chuckle as soon as this video started. The place where you were sleeping is the exact same spot I was at with a railfan buddy of mine back in late June. Perhaps one day I'll luck out and see you sometime.
I never knew water keys existed until I saw your videos a while back. I went out and bought one and carry it with me now. Never know when/if I'll need it but I've got it now :)
You're a resourceful man, Shoestring. I've learnt a heck of a lot from you.
Hey Shoestring. So glad you made it through my hometown. I've lived here most of my life and always heard that familiar "duh duh duh duh" sound echoing across town. I knew it was the train passing over something and making noise, but I never knew exactly where. I just learned today that it's because of the four-way you talk about at 7:40. This is a nostalgic sound of my childhood. Thanks for solving the mystery. I always love watching your travels. Keep on keepin' on.
I live in Sagle!
Don't have problems hobo shoestring! Have a wonderful day!
I like watching your train hopping videos
That’s always a strange feeling riding through that refueling facility in Hauser. Spokane is where I seem to have issues, dang it! Thanks for the video.
I love it when Sir Shoestring starts off trackside at camp.. I haven't watched this yet tho looking forward to it. I'm out western NSW in Australia looking at railways and 'Grainers' big arse menacing looking American Pride vehicles seem to be on the rise out here with RAM trucks on the increase. I think they are sold here now..
I'm starting to monologue..
Top man shoestring I feel so much happier for watching your content matey.big respect from uk and stay safe✌️
Hobo, man the diamonds take a beating. Great to see you again,good job on vid. Bro you take care!
Shoutout to Shoestring....I used to work in Calgary across the CP Alyth yard at Shell lubricants many years ago. Alyth yard is a very busy spot
Another relaxingSunday evening with Shoestring and a glass of wine.some great scenery out thereMark.
Hey man thanks for showing that diamond up close. I have seen them on google maps satellite view but never up close. Wondered how they would pull it off but the actually cut grooves in the steel. Makes total sense now. As always great video.
i saw the loose bolts bolting on to the ties guess it floats a bit
you said it minnihopeless. love it. you got great weather shoestring. enjoy this cuz we sure are. and thanks much. head shower lookt refreshing. god be wit cha,,,
good to see you back again happy belated birthday to you and luke.
Love the sound of the Diamond being hit! Memories!
Great video Shoestring! I've had trouble with my right hand not working right for quite some time, mine is pinched nerves in the neck, can't hardly even sign my name anymore, I hate that feeling, hope yours don't flare up on you alot! Safe travels out there and Happy Rails!👍 And Happy Birthday to Luke!🥳
All the best Shoestring 👍
Thanks for showing a Hobo bath. Stage safe and let’s go!
Just saw your tag in one of Stobes videos. Im glad you made it to Idaho
I thought I saw you in the yard today by the train station when I drove past. Wished I ran into you while I was in town, woulda been cool to say hi. Safe travels my friend!
Shoe String ! Awesome Snot Rocket dude !!
Thanks for showing the close-up of the crossover vibration. Really getting pounded . .
Just what I needed on a rainy Saturday evening. Hope you're doing well Mark!
You are an absolute legend mate!
Hi shoestring grate to see you in the PNW.I have been watching your videos for years I live south of Spokane Wa close to a place called Pandora siding that was the Milwaukee road but is now the Palouse to cascade trail.
Good ole nerve issues, God bless ya Shoestring.
Keeo on riding brother.
I had a similar problem. Get a brace that immobilizes your wrist when you sleep. Took a month but it helped me. Good to see you again. Maybe try that flashlight on your next ride.
Excellent vid shoestring 😊thanks bro
Love your videos! Been watching you for a while.
Stay safe those trains are dangerous! I remember when I was 18 catching a freight train to Kalamath falls Oregon was a crazy adventure we got on a rear engine!
I worked as a ballast cleaner operator, those cross tracks, man they had to be dug by hand. It always and i mean always the hottest of days. But it was the 80s and working the tracks was the best job ive ever had.
