Glad to hear that surgery went well

Great memories. I used to work/drive the Arrowhead/ Northern Minnesota/ Cloquet/ 35 W, back in the day. Now living in Arizona.

I am glad that they can take these older systems and still run them. They make trips such as this (A Fall Leaf Colors Tour) just pop. We still have a few trains that run in NC. Primarily in the mountain areas. I think they provide more pizazz then just the Amtrack system.

Joe I know it must be quite enjoyable for you because you are not having to direct a little one like I see most of the parents are doing. I don't know how my parents were able to do that so many years ago. I makes me appreciate what they did. Since I have never been a parent I missed out on all those duties. It is hard enough just to keep me in line. 😆😆

My husband who died 2 years ago absolutely loved trains we are in uk & trains here are much smaller but the whole experience was fantastic. Your trains are really huge

Cool video Joe.

Thanks for sharing . We wish you a speedy recovery from your surgery .

I feel for you Joe! Not being able to do much must be making you crazy!

Thanks for sharing this video with us Joe and Melissa. You sound good Joe so the surgery must have went well, now let it heal till the doctor releases you. Stay safe . Fred.

I know that pain from surgery, it does get better stay well my friend 😳

Greetings from Northeast Ohio. That was nice, but I’d rather be on the Polar Express. They serve hot chocolate and you get to see Santa Claus lol. We rode a train like that when we were in the Adirondacks and upper state New York.

Gosh! is life GOOD or what!!

Hoping your recovery is quick

What a cool place to visit

Awesome museum! Loved the train ride! Hope you're healing well. 👍😎🇨🇦🙏🌞

Love the old steam engines. 😀Remember my gram running out to get the laundry off the line before the ash fell on the clean clothes 👍

Great memory.

Thanks Joe! Praying all is well with you!

You better take up polishing the silver or crocheting or writing a book its only been a few days and you're looking for work 😁 And none of us are surprised!

Love this! Being from Duluth & my great grandfather & grandfather both worked the trains. I took the shorter train ride & have been wanting to ride to Two Harbors! I’ll be taking the ride this summer when I come home! And yes the smell is heaven ! Take care Joe & Melissa

What a fun video. Thanks!

I love taking those kind of train rides! Enjoyable video!

bought me parents that fall color tour a couple years ago they enjoyed it too. boxer will help your recovery!

So happy your surgery went well. Now be smart take it easy. God bless. You are a good guy Charlie Brown. Lol

I remember taking my girls there when they were little. Being girls, they didn't get very excited. But, they both went to college up there and my youngest lives in Two Harbors, so something must have appealed to them.

I absolutely LOVE train museums. Growing up in central IL, we had a place or two to enjoy rails of yesteryear. It's a shame the US isn't as rail heavy as the rest of the world; best way to travel.

Beautiful fall colors and I learned some trains history. Thanks ✌️

That was pretty cool. The scenery was beautiful.

Bet that museum and those trains would make for a fun ghost tour!

I'm glad you're on the mend. I hope the boredom doesn't get too bad. Try to do what the doctor says. I know it's hard to believe, but they really do know what they're doing. All the best to you and Melissa, and the pooches too.

Thanks for another great video. Hoping everything is going good. We appreciate all your hard work Joe.

Pleased to hear that the surgery went well and I wish you a speedy recovery. Loved seeing the old trains. Pity that they are not still working.

Great. That is good news...Thanks fpr sharing !!!!@@NorthernSeclusion

Very cool Joe !!

Lucky you, getting to ride on the RDC (Budd Company Rail Diesel Car). I rode on Boise Budds when the Virginia Railway Express first started operations (1992-2001). They were RDCs that had been stripped of their Detroit Diesel engines, the vent shafts and roof vents and converted into traditional passenger coaches. I loved them, as did a group of other railfans. We tried to get the VRE to keep them, but they declined and moved forward to bi-level gallery cars. Shucks! Do hope your recovery is progressing well. Did you meet Ken Buehler, executive director of the museum?

Woohoo!

MN cloudy , overcast as usual .

Happy convalescence! Please don't go stir crazy from inactivity. 🤨

How does it feel to have Melissa waiting on you hand and foot, Joe?

How did the surgery go?

How was your surgery experience??
