Thank you Richard. Appreciate your kind words and support. ❤️

What a solemn, sad, meaningful tribute this is, to the devastation that took place there. Eleven feet of snow...!😢 It must've been eerie, to be in the area where the tragedies occurred, over a century ago. Thank you for the pics, and the location shots. I'm so glad you didn't endanger yourselves by going too far into the ruins, Andrea and Steven. I had never heard of these incidents. I'm shocked that some people actually survived that horrific ordeal. **Once again, you provided us with a well researched, on the spot video, Andrea and Steven. 🏚🙏🏻🚂 😑 🚞👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you Rhonda. That 11 feet of snow fell in one hour on the worst day. Nearly 40 feet fell in total. Very scary!

You guys did an exceptional job on this one.... now let's tell the algorithm that! I didn't go much further down the train tunnel than that ether. However, I did manage to get down below and check out what's left of the wreckage. There was a spiral stair case, boilers, and all kinds of random iron bits all over the place! Super creepy and sad down there tho.... 😞 didn't have a channel back then and only have a few pictures...

Thank you so much! So glad you told us to go here! We debated on hiking down to the wreckage but we did the large loop instead. This was a special one for us spent a lot of time making it!

That is a tragic story, for sure! What must have been going through their minds when the avalanches hit the trains! Great video, today. Thanks for sharing!

Very sad Kerry. Couldn’t even begin to imagine what that would be like.

Hi Steve and Andrea - here in the south of England, we really cannot even imagine that amount of snow. Iif even an inch dares to fall, everything grinds to a standstill. There have been some ghastly railway disasters. The one thar sticks in my mind was the Lewisham ( S E London) crash in 1957 - 90 dead. Great atmospheric video guys.

We certainly don’t know how to deal with snow over there. I remember that freek storm one April. 2008 or 2009 and no one could get to work. They shut Gatwick down!

Somber history, somber ruins. Fascinating story. Thanks, Steve and Andrea! 👍❤

Very Good VIDEO you guy's.

Looks like another interesting site ... and a great video! 🙂 I've always had an interest in railroads and tunnels. And back in 1991 ... some friends and I decided we wanted to hike through the Alpine Tunnel in Colorado. We didn't have any info on the tunnel other than it was there. We got there and found the snow sheds collapsed as well as the tunnel entrance. There was still enough of a crawl space to see inside the tunnel and it was quite full of water with a strong cold breeze coming out of it! We quickly decided we were under equipped for exploring it and ended up having a July 4th 12,000 ft snowball fight outside of the tunnel instead. I did see some photos of the inside of the tunnel later on and it was clear we made the right decision not to go in. It was definitely a dry suit kind of explore!

Was it like walking in paradise when you were in the forest. Plus there are ghost that haunt that area. Along US 2. Steven s Pass area.😊 You hit the gem on this one. It is very haunted area because of the tragic death.

@@PinInTheAtlas yes it’s very interesting area. Many reports of ghost haunting and very disturbing noises at night. Spooky area. I wouldn’t want to be around there at night.

Considering what those that came before us, had to work with. Still managed some pretty amazing things. But then, like now. Greed led them to very poor decisions.

So true Ken.

One of my very good friends wrote a book about the incident, and has been involved in ghost hunting up at Wellington many times. I was supposed to join them on a couple trips, but other things came up to keep me away. Most locals even, are unaware of the history.

If you go down into the valley there is actually still wreckage left. Plus all the foundations to Wellington are still there. Only they changed the name from Wellington to something I can't remember so that people wouldn't associate the town with the disaster
