    Great video with equally amazing narration. It’s amazing how many improvements the BNSF made to former Northern Pacific. Welded rail, concrete ties and new ballast. The former NP has the capacity to be double tracked to Sand Point and once it clears Mullins Pass the double track to Laurel and further east.

    Great stuff. You had to get up early for a lot of these.
    Eltopia siding was originally called "Hell to Pay" (in its rough boomer days), but local blue-noses soon renamed it.
    Mesa is pronounced "Meesa." Don't ask me why.
    You did get Beatrice correct. Good catch.
    Latah is pronounced LAY-tah (like Utah)

  • @blairterry9435
    @blairterry9435 Před 8 měsíci +2

    Amazing! I been on that route when I went to California on Amtrak’s westbound Empire Builder. What steam locomotives did Northern Pacific use on that subdivision when steam power was around? Their handsome 4-8-4 Northerns, the 4-6-6-4 Z class Challengers, 4-6-2 Pacifics, or even their 2-8-2 Mikados? We have a very few Northern Pacific steam survivors and the only big steam survivor from the railroad is Northern Pacific O-3 Class 2-8-2 No: 1762 who is being restored to its original condition. But there is another one which is an exception SP&S 700 which was based off Northern Pacific’s later and more modern 4-8-4s. It would have been nice if we had a NP Challenger in preservation or even one of their 2-8-8-4 Yellowstones. Seeing those as major steam excursion stars would of been amazing.

  • @youngwarrior2
    @youngwarrior2 Před 2 měsíci +1

    Love your videos. A couple corrections: the UP south of Lakeside Jct is on their own line, the abandoned line at that location is the SP&S. I lived in Spangle during the changes in Marshall Canyon. Latah Creek is pronounced Lah tuh. Used to be called Hangman Creek.

    Love the video and footage of being out in the open flat of eastern Washington. I think some video using a drone would make some of the shots even more dramatic! But overall great footage of trains. Growing up next to tracks in the PNW town of Sumner, I got to meet many engineers over the years and my grandmother even fed some of them when they had to stop next to our property. I became an illustrated artist for my career but if hadn't I would have gotten to be a train engineer, because at 8yrs old was called up into an engine moving train cars in the production plant near our house and was allowed to drive the engine per the instructions of the engineer running it. After that I truly got bitten and loved trains and thought that was going to be my career but ended up following my drawing skills. Love the video and makes me wonder if I missed out on a career in this field of trains. Keep up the good job of producing great train videos!

      It's called a hump yard, gravity and computers, the brakes are released from the string by a conductor and the engineer shoved it and the cats
      Break off and then get routed to the
      Siding that there going to. Most RR
