That type of car is called a "Combine" because it is a combination of a Mail Car, Baggage Car and Passenger Car.

I really liked this. The cave houses and this one are both places I’d like to stay

this is a neat concept. i think the best thing about it was the way this guy spoke about saving history. it's such a great adventure to take an old home or building (or train car in this instance) and refurbish it for preservation sake.

So many AirBnBs are absolutely ridiculous these days. Charging a cleaning fee while also expecting guests to clean up beforehand, take out the trash, and bring the bins to the curb. Charging a fee if you bring a guest over, etc.

Anyways, this airbnb is gorgeous

It's pretty good idea to build that platform with a roof over it, it will last a lot longer that way, keep a lot of the weather off of it.

I’ve just checked the price for 2 nights in April $976 with all fees. A lot but what a weekend!

A lot of areas in the US are banning Airbnb. It's one of the things that is driving up rents in the area.

Great video... as always, but for some reason I really loved this a lot. It makes me want to try this myself, but I live in the upper Midwest and I'm not sure how many abandoned railcars I could find.

A family of 7 bros building stuff together. They could make a little eclectic town on that 22 acre lot if they wanted to. That's a rarity to see a family that big together working with their hands nowadays (outside of obvious outliers like the Amish).
I wish them all the best and hope to be half their level someday 😂

Way too expensive per night in my opinion.
