    Very much appreciated. Well done thank you. Very interesting. It helps when you have references to a map and locations here in there in your videos so that we can find what you’re talking about and like there ourselves.

    Nice video! Love your channel! So much work put into these videos. I've been watching all of them and learning new things and new places to walk. I've been to almost all the spots you've shown and it's so cool to learn more about the history of the area. I subbed. Keep it up, these are awesome! Thank you!

    Very nice - thanks for the vid sir. Love all the history in the area and the ability to walk so many of the original rail corridors. I hope funding can be solidified to extend the Eastrail over the huge Wilburton trestle. But I do miss the dinner train - a young woman that would end up as my wife and I had a very nice dinner on that line.

      Thank you for the kind words and for sharing your story. I moved to the area years after the dinner train was no more, but I am fascinated by the stories that folks in my video comments and in-person group history rides have told me.

    ahhhh!!! When the driver just entered Rainier Beach, in-between those two apartment buildings on each side of the road (Rainier Ave. min 4:29), when I had my paper-route, when I was 12 (HAA!), they had just finished building the one on the right (The Bayshore Apartments, I believe), and I delivered two apartments there (Sun. only), then I would turn left and head up Waters Ave., S. to my humble home, where my sisters were cooking pancakes and eggs. 😁

      @@bobco85 I bought that uni for ~$30 at a bike shop about halfway between Renton and RB. It was first thing I bought with my paper-route money. They came from England. I road it EVERYWHERE! My legs looked like the coyote's legs, after he ate "super pills", to get after the road runner.

    Try to stay in the bike lanes, and off of the pedestrians side walks.
