  • Back again with another Roadside Find. This time I end up finding some structures and a Unique surprise at the end. I also met a local who was able to share a bunch of info about the structures. So come along with me as we explore some really cool Roadside Finds. Enjoy
    Please Note: Exploring Abandoned locations can be dangerous. I don't condone or encourage anyone to enter an Abandoned structure. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal and when possible, i seek out permission. I simply go to document its history before it's gone and leave things the way I find them. I assume all the risks & responsibility in doing so. Please don't attempt to do this on your own.

    Wow! Being a rail fan this was an incredible find! The wind was not that bad. The Weigh Station was incredible! The metal and concrete structure with a metal roof are what preserved it so well. The structure you were in with the tanks and pipes were likely a pumping station with a giant electric transformer. The wooden round water tank with the metal strapping reminds me of the water tower on the old Petticoat Junction T.V. Show. The old school was an awesome find and thanks to the elderly gentlemen who gave you additional info. But I have to say that old maintenance of way switcher locomotive was so cool. I have some friends at the Museum of Transportation here in St. Louis who may be able to provide additional info on that. As always I'm never disappointed with what you do! You have made my time off of work due to Covid-19 much more enjoyable! I appreciate your sincerity and openness about your past work school and allowing me to be a part of not only your family but the new people I have met through your channel. I have been talking you up on Facebook hoping to bring others to your CZcams channel. Have a great evening, stay warm and look forward to dinner. Maybe I'll bring the Egg Rolls and Crab Raygoon!

    If you didn't go into the weigh station I was going to tell you about the upstairs, and you wouldve been kicking yourself lol. The old school was actually named at Nicholas after the breaker across the street. It burned down. I always imagined all the fathers working in there knowing there kids school was on fire. There actually used to be abandoned train cars sitting outside that pumphouse. I have a few photos of them from years ago.

    Jay,
    That building looks so solid.
    I would imagine it would make a good business or home.
    I agree with you, 50 years ago was 1970 and he was born in 1950, so he probably wouldn't know much when he was little.
    The lights and the building do look like it was used later.
    I wonder if there are any old photographs of that area from that time, it might clarify the situation.
    If you can find out what coal company operated the mine , there should be some pictures.
    Cheers,
    Rik Spector

    The old railcar thing, is a weed burner. The engine with the belts ran a blower. The other engine powered the railcar. Fuel from the tank was squirted to each of the fueling tips hidden in the downward pointing buckets at the ends of the poles. Air passed along the pipes/poles and the whole effect was that of a series of big blowtorches. They were used for burning weeds off in railway switch yards, and also for melting ice and snow from switchpoints.

That was interesting of that school, and the weight station. Such history and yet people think its a place to dump trash. I just don't understand people. Its to bad people have to smash windows. I think that bldg. is in good sound shape. But the basement could have water in it. That wood will not last long. All those huge metal pipes they can turn them in for scrap metal.

      Meeting and listening to the local was the best part. Almost... that railroad mow was so neat.

    I was there years ago before the breaker was torn down (that breaker was astonishingly big, unreal). Just took a quick look around because of the amount of traffic. It's interesting to see what's still left after the breaker was demolished & get a tour. Great find!

    I really enjoyed this video! It is amazing what kind of things you find in a simple structure. I do like those simple metal windows. I got to see an old machine shop get most of its windows replaced. There are people that are talented in replacing that type of window and they probably charge a lot of money. I used to get paid to make architectural drawings of old historical houses and buildings for historical and commercial purposes. That staircase was beautiful. I thought the brake lever was pretty cool. The steps and foundation to the school was amazing! Usually, when a school is torn down these days, they don't leave a trace behind.

    Very cool roadside find. Finding that handbrake was stellar. Getting the information on that school was superb. It just shows it when you find something you really can’t find Something without information which you were able to get bumping into the old man. One thing really does lead to another. Just thinking about the waystation having cars come up to Weight I makes me flashback to olden times. Great find J, really great video.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

    Neat place!! I explored this summer of 2023 with a friend and we think that locomotive to dethaw the tracks and turnouts in winter. Down from that tank are 2 slope mine entrances(flooded) and an air shaft right by the highway! You should return as there are more things to the North. I didn't know you explored this till I saw this video in Sept.2023. I too know a gentleman who went to school there. Lots of memories now gone.

    I didn't explore any of these gems, but back in 2012 I did get to explore the St. Nicholas coal breaker that used to stand on this property. It was incredible! Tons of old boots, time cards, ledgers. They tore it down in 2015. I will never forget that experience. Your video has made me want to go back and explore these other ruins. Thanks!
