- Enjoy some action along Nevada's Palisade Canyon. One of the most scenic railroad sections in the state, in my opinion.
This was during a trip out to Utah from Oregon. I wanted to spend at least part of a day here on my journey and I was pretty satisfied to get 5 trains in just one afternoon as well as 1 more on my way back to Oregon a week later. This video is another big check off the list!
Recording equipment used:
-Mavic 3 Pro
-Sony ZV E-10

MAGNIFICENT! This was drone railfanning at its finest! Job well done Dan!
Thanks so much man! Very glad you check this section off the list!
This is great. My father was born in Palisade on 1905, along the river. We have visited the "town" several times . Note much left there now.
Just great . wonderful views with the drone. thank you.
As an "Original Transcon" RR enthusiast, have been there several times, visit artifacts, etc. James Strobridge and the "gang" did an amazing job, and Alfred Hart caught the action...er..the stills. One more fascinating photo is from Thanksgiving of 1868, his family and a Reverend, seen. And of course, their adopted son, Sam, was featured in a photo at Promontory Summit event the next May. Thanks for the lovely video, from Darrell.
This is amazing!
Dan, I am always speech-less after watching your videos. Your work is award-winning and stunning in its beauty and simplicity. Bravo, sir! Bravo!
Well thank you so much I'm humbled you think so! You're too kind!
Thank for your post from this fascinating area. Your added narration is much appreciated and your drone pilotage is amazing! Will be patiently waiting for your next production.
Thanks Bill I am glad everyone is sharing their appreciation for the narration I'm now adding because it does add quite a bit of time to the editing but it seems to be paying off and increasing my views more than before.
Tunnels, like the mountain isn't there. I've been back and forth on I-80 any number of times and had no idea the canyon was even there. Thanks for stopping as you crossed Nevada.
I've heard that a couple of times now. Glad I could show you about it as well!
Fantastic as always Dan. I always look forward to your amazing videos. Beautiful scenery.
Thank you Mike I'm humbled you think so highly of my work!
Your right that tunnel 40 is remarkable to see from a drone. Well done, I appreciate all your hard work ( including driving ). I look at alot of train material on you tube, your work is top notch, thanks for sharing
Well thanks so much Bradley I'm humbled you think so! I strive to bring everyone the very best footage that I can.
What a great place. Once went on I 80 from Salt Lake City to Reno, but I’ve missed some great places. Good reasons to come again.
Extraordinary panoramic views, another 'Shareholders Meeting' video. Excellent work, sir...
Well thanks so much!
Another Railfan Dan Production at its finest. Great job man
Thanks a lot Brian! I am pretty proud of this one.
Surprisingly green for September.
Tunnel 40 is spectacular.
Great vid!
I'm glad you think that because I also thought it seemed rather green for the time of year which is a fantastic bonus! Thanks a lot!
Love this! An underappreciated and mostly ignored impressive stretch of line and landscape. I always save your vids until I have time, and sit and watch them on my living room big screen. They are that good.
Well thanks a lot Ted I think they are best experienced on a big screen as well and always enjoy doing so after it's posted as well!
Spectacular footage Dan. 👍
Your production quality is amazing. Love the music. ❤
Thanks a bunch!
Your videos are really incredible. You have an excellent eye for composition and framing.
Thanks so much Mark!
Some grand views...Thank You, Dan!
Thanks Ron!
Aww-Some! Spectacular video!
Thanks Bill glad you enjoyed!
Absollutely no apologies needed for presenting awesome videos such as this in Neveda.
Thanks a lot Jerry!
Another awesome video. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks!
So great! Congratulations from Belo Horizonte, Brazil. I know this place since 1997 when I saw in TrainsMag about City of San Francisco sabotage in 1939. Só beautiful place.
Thanks so much! It is definitely one of Nevada's most scenic places where a railroad runs.
one of your best
Thank you for another wonderful video, Dan! I enjoyed watching the Union Pacific trains winding their way through the beauty of Palisade Canyon in Nevada. Union Pacific runs some long trains through this trackage. Your shot of the manifest train coming out of Tunnel 40 at 20:41 was magnificent! You were in the right place at the right time to capture that moment for us.
Thanks Thomas glad you enjoyed. A pretty neat region for sure and glad to finally check it off the list. Yes I was very glad to get that last train at Tunnel 40 with the morning sunlight!
Amazing place! I follow your channel here in Brazil. Congratulations ❗❗❗
Thanks a lot for following Lucianomagnani! Very glad you're enjoying!
Thank you for the narration, length, direction of travel, number of power units and what the loads were. Now I must look up what a manifest train is. Looks like it is more than grain. Much appreciated. --- Manifest - Train made up of mixed rail cars (box cars, tank cars, piggyback cars, etc.). Bulk - Train made up of a single "bulk" commodity (other than coal) and car type. Bulk commodities include grain, soda ash and ore. Yes, what I thought.
You're a true artist!
Well thank you very much!
Well done, as always! This canyon has always been of interest to me. Of particular historical note was the nearby wreck of the City of San Francisco. Worth looking up. Around the 19 mim mark the grain train's DPU passes over the site and it's eliminated river crossings. They even altered the river course! Note the old abudtment. Thanks, Dan!
Thanks a lot Aaron I didn't know about that and will have to look it up! Wow sounds like a major deal for sure!
Nice Dan !!!!
Awesome footage
Just an outstanding video Dan! Such a beautiful place to film trains. I could only imagine what this area was like in its heyday with two different RR’ds. Way back when I snatched up the Pentrex videos of the D&RGW because I just love that country out there. Looking forward to the Utah video.
I know I have also been imaging back in the day when it was WP and SP. What a place to railfan for sure... I've got so much Utah content in the works. You will be satisfied!
I always found areas like this to be interesting. How people moved to places like this to make a life for themselves and their families. Glad you stopped by and was able to film the area. Did you for interest sake, see where the Eureka & Palisade Railroad met up with the Southern Pacific. The old town site area and etc. I think this could be of interest for anyone that enjoys narrow gauge railroading.
You're looking at it at 5:45.
I actually don't know about that railroad until a quick search about it after seeing your comment so no unfortunately I didn't know to look for anything. It sounds like a neat railroad back in its heyday though.
Outstanding video ! This is the prototype of my N Scale layout.
Very cool! A great choice of a piece of railroad to model.
Great video Dan. Having worked 9 yrs on the Elko Sub it was neat to see it from the air. If you get a chance to go there again, just east of Tunnel 40 is the cross over for the #1 and #2 tracks. Some neat bridge work chosen by the railroads to make the cross over. I thought of Lionel every time I went through there.
Hey thanks so much! I actually will be out there again very soon for the 4014 Big Boy and will have a day to spend filming regular operations again as well so I do hope to make it out to that crossover.
Been there several time, but to explore the Ghost town of Pallisade. Was still lots there back in 2005 to 2007. Never once in all the time I spent there did a single freight come through.
great video Dan 👍👏🤟
Thanks a lot!
Sweet views and beautiful scenery Dan! (Dave).
Thanks so much Dave!
@@TheRailfanDan you're welcome
Nice job Dan! I've been to Palisades at least 6 or 7 times - it never gets old.I need to go back and use my drone there next!
Thanks Doug and oh yeah you'll love flying the drone there!
Time well spent for me,GREAT job been 50 years since I was there👍. Thanks Dan
Thanks so much Bruce!
Awesome! Thank you !
The canyon and rock formations are fabulous here. Tunner 40 is super cool, I'm not surprised you like so much. I can understand why this location is popular for railfans. The views are fantastic and the trains are nifty too. As a UP fan I can appreciate the Armor Yellow locomotives in this video. As always high quality update Dan. I'm glad you had time to capture these trains for us in this magic place.
Yeah definitely glad it was easy to get to Tunnel 40. I've got a lot more UP yellow coming your way from my time in Utah. You'll definitely appreciate it I think.
Another outstanding video !!! Thanks for sharing...
Really like your videos don't change anything, even my wife enjoys them .and the music is great
Completely awesome. Thanks, you are the best.
Thank you so much Craig!
Great video, narration gave historical insight on who operated those tracks. You save us a lot of driving around looking for these places. I don't know if you know about this, but the Hobart Tower has been demolished. It was located in the City of Commerce in Los Angeles😪🤧
Thanks a lot! No I didn't know.
Great video, great location ,thanks for sharing
beautiful place, top footage, congratulations
Excellent video coverage considering the amount of time you spent there. ( That eastbound grainer on your return trip, on Track 2, should have used the Track 2 milepost of 636 vs. Track 1 526 across the river. )
Thank you and yes I agree I feel that I got pretty lucky for the short amount of time I was here.
Beutiful video, congratulations for this very professional video . We ll be impossible for me to do like you but i ll try my best in July with Big Boy....will be very busy place i think. Grazie and ciao from Italy
Thanks glad you enjoyed! Oh yes I will be out there for the Big Boy as well. I am betting there will be quite a few people at this canyon.
For future reference you can drive from palisade, down the tracks all the way to the Barth Iron Pit to the east and access where the tracks cross over.
Outstanding presentation.
Great skill using a drone!
I lived in Elko NV for 14 years and in all that time I NEVER saw a eastbound on the old SP through Palisade canyon. It's possible things have changed since I left (2002) but I think that local you caught should be filed with your collection of hens teeth.
The SD40-2s on the UP locals have been the same as long as I was there - Back before the merger SP would usually have a couple GPs on their local, but from time to time I'd see an SD-9.
I remember paddling my canoe around the lake/flooded mine pit at Barth - your west end of the canyon spot. And catching crawdads in the river. ;)
Well then I'm sure glad I got lucky with that! I wonder why they had to run the other main there? Sounds like some good ol' days!
Thanks!
Thank you so so much Keith!!! Very much appreciated! Your donation really helps to keep the channel moving forward!
Its a shame we didn't have hi res video drones in the 70's and 80's! Now you need to do Ruby Canyon near the Utah Colorado border!
I hope to get there someday!
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
You make good use of the cameras on the Mavic 3 Pro. Some of the scene transitions are a bit jarring. Narration is terrific and your flying is exemplary.
Thank you and yeah as soon as I found out about it I had the exact ideas in mind that you're now seeing! I love my Inspire 2 that I flew before and still have but it's so hard to not use the Mavic 3 Pro for everything.
Did you happen to get any good looks at the trestle date stamps? I looked carefully but couldn't quite make them out. In particular, I'm really interested in the abandoned trestle along the main, which I found extremely cool! Some of the designs remind me of the trestles along the CORP line through grove and Roseburg.
Great video as always, Dan! Keep it up!
Thanks a lot Mike and no I unfortunately did not get any close ups on the bridges except what you see. They do look similar though, you're right.
Is running smoothly in mountain and hills
Really great footage!! Was there a best location from which to pilot your drone?
Thank you! Probably right at Tunnel 40 because I could follow the tracks either direction for a ways from there.
I always wondered if the conductor or engineer get sick of these breath taking sites.
Another awesome video. That Mavic 3 Pro is looking good. I live in Southern Nevada and I had never heard of this place, but now I'm thinking of visiting the location in the future. Would you say that you need a truck if you visit the area? I ask because it sure looks like everything is gravel road by where you shot the video of the trains. Thanks for your time and I know that it costs money and you aren't that close, but are you planning on visiting Cajon Pass or Tehachapi anytime soon?
Hey thanks a lot! I am pretty proud of this one. No pretty much everywhere I went in this video can be accessed by anyone in a normal sedan. I really do want to get back to Tehachapi and Cajon but I don't know when that will be. I think I will first be making my own maiden voyage to the Southern Transcon in Arizona before I head back there.
@@TheRailfanDan If you hit the southern transcon, let me know man because that's a great place to railfan. I don't know how fast your drones fly (my air2s maxes out at about 30mph with obstacle avoidance), but many of the trains fly through alot of that area. Keep up the great videos.
Look like it's moving faster
a click on the tumbs up is too little to show how I liked this video. I skipped the ground shots, they now seemed so boring with those amazing shots from the air. Is the "tracks crossing over each other" a location to shoot? Would love to see those lines cross each other from the sky.
The crossover is reachable if you have a vehicle with good ground clearance; at least in dry conditions. As I remember it wasn't a practical spot to shoot from the ground, but a drone would be a different story. Easier to reach from the Palisade end.
Thanks so much for that! I only like to add the ground shots so folks get a little bit of content with audio of the trains since it is a big part of the enjoyment for many including myself. But I definitely understand what you mean about it not being as exciting! Richard is correct as well. I would have liked to have tried to get into that location but I didn't have enough time planned here to do that this go around.
Incredible views. Great shots.
Here so many lines are hidden, obstructed by trees, forest...... This is what i recently got: czcams.com/video/ddCPYh2ieAo/video.html
How do they disassemble those multi mile trains? Ought to be worth recording.
Thank you Stefan and nice one yourself! Good question on the long trains.
Don’t cut the shots… I enjoyed watching a trains go it’s full length..
