    Big boy has been known to pull 65 to 120 cars. And when helped to a start, kept a train 10 km long moving. That is just crazy powerful.

    Thanks for a great video - brought back a lot of memories of when I chased trains over parts of the Cima Subdivision and BNSF's Needles Subdivision. When I visited the States for the first time fell in love with the Mojave and on my second trip just had to revisit. Charlie from Canberra

    I just did this trip last month (thanks in great part to this video). I didn't realize that most of the Fraser River was heavily forested and I'd recommend shooting straight to the Cisco Bridges if you are coming up from the south (Hope/Vancouver). After the Cisco Bridges you have glorious views from Lytton all the way to Kamloops (this video). I spent many hours between Lytton and Ashcroft. The CN and CP have basically created a 2 lane super highway. The Columbia Gorge is similar, however, here in the Thompson area you are closer to each side of the river due to the narrower width of the river and can get great shots no matter which side the trains are on.

    A family member works for UP as a conductor. He runs the Valley Subdivision from Roseville to Dunsmir. Being scenic and more relaxing than the Fresno Subdivision (Sacramento to Bakersfield), this is his much preferred line. Great video.

  • @jeremynielsen5500
    @jeremynielsen55005 күн бұрын

    They are for mileage. The number of stripes indicate a quarter mile a pole with one stripe meaning a 1/4 mile, a pole with two stripes equals a 1/2 a mile, 3 stripes equals 3/4 of a mile, and 4 stripes equals. At 1:04:40 you can see a pole with four stripes and numbers placard
