I immediately thought of The Railrodder. A short film starring Buster Keaton. Thanks for posting a nice scenic trip down an old forgotten path. Great scenery.

When I was young in the '80s I watched people building their own out of bicycle type stuff and exploring old railroad tracks in either Oregon or Washington and they would go out there with everything including camping gear shovels pics and chainsaws and come alongs to move obstructions purely fascinating they were in the middle of nowhere were people hadn't been in God knows how long I wish I could see that again I saw it on some kids show thanks for sharing a had fun watching it

That extra pair of inside rails on trestles, is to keep the train in line and from falling off the trestle, if should there be a derailment. Lots of people don't know this

Nice machine. Would like to try something like it on the abandoned lines in North Carolina.

Thanks for the video - it would have been nice to see your railcar in detail.

Due to a lack of abandoned lines in my area, I often have no choice but to use active ones. However, does get a little tricky sometimes going tnrough tunnels with an oncoming train...

I want to make a hybrid one so it's nice and quiet I want to use a Honda generator and a big electric motor it would go like a bat out of hell like a Tesla car

[rickdee]

Bucket list! I HAVE to do this! How fun is that?!!

I discovered these little railway only yesterday, and I'm fascinated. Yours is the first that I've seen to be battery powered and with an aluminum frame -- quiet and lightweight. Did you design and build it yourself? I'd like to know more. Please help!

[torccchaser]

so cool ..i envy you being able to do it

[UTubeGlennAR]

>^..^< Nice ride, thanks for taking me

[SMTMainline]

Looks like lots of fun, may I ask where you got you're wheels? I've recently built one my self and the wheels that are currently on it are "crane wheels" which work but are not vary wide so they don't compensate for the out of gauge track too well.

[jungleno.]

You are living the life people dream about. Enjoy it!

I initially thought this had to be Washington State when I saw the State Flower...Moss.

I like your speeder here but I would prefer to have one with a roof just in case it rained.
