    New subscriber here! Found y'all when trying to research for Mallow's Bay and the shipwrecks. Love how your videos flow so well! They're so informative and loving the content! It is such a shame that this place is under historic registry yet there's no easy way to get to there so people can appreciate them. Then again, that's both a good and bad thing. Seeing the vandalism hurts my heart. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure! -Ven

      You are welcome Ven and thanks for your comment! We agree with you about vandalism. It's just a shame that some people just don't care about the preservation of history.

    Honestly, I would love to see the railroad being rebuilt as a tourist railroad and haul loads of passengers along the former right-of-way. Have the locomotives be restored for display purposes and have them parked in front of a station or next to a parking lot.

    • @WeRmudfun
      @WeRmudfun  8 лет назад +2

      These locomotives are in the middle of the wilderness. There is no easy way to get them, you have to bushwhack, snowmobile or kayak to them. They remain on the same tracks they were on inside the engine house when it was burnt down around them.

    • @ryanthesteamman
      @ryanthesteamman 8 лет назад +1

      But it still would've been nice if they were restored for public display if that'll be possible.

    • @WeRmudfun
      @WeRmudfun  8 лет назад +1

      Yes it would. :)

    Great find! I think the waves were thanks to Tropical Storm Hermine. Another entertaining and educational video.

    • @WeRmudfun
      @WeRmudfun  8 лет назад

      Thanks Jeffery. :) We did this 2 weeks ago, so I don't believe Hermine had anything to do with the winds. That was just Mother Nature making it tough for us to find the trains. LOL

    that or find some current operational steam and send the 280 & 460 to north creek branch railroad upstate new york. all they run is diesel like bl2 and other types of diesels

    It's much easier by snow sled. & I know someone that found a foot trail from a logging road in their. I'd say your best bet is contacting Nugent camps. They are on the lake & probably know the trail.

    • @WeRmudfun
      @WeRmudfun  8 лет назад

      Thank you for your comment, we're glad to take you along for the ride in the videos. :) With the new RV we hope to start to spread our wings out a bit, so to speak. The biggest problem we have with doing that is our jobs get in the way of our fun. :) We do have a vacation coming up soon and are discussing where to go and what to do.

      Thanks you. We have been compiling a list of places we want to check out for years now. The list is long, but the trains are no longer on it. :)Not sure if you have seen our playlists on the our channel, one is called Unique Hikes, that has well...the unique hikes like this one.

      There is no drivable road all the way to the train. At least not when we went.

    Let me start by saying you make awesome videos. I have family that would have made paper with pulpwood that came off that train. My mother's hole family is from and still lives in Millinocket. It's like home for me as well. I hope to bring my family to the trains this summer and hopefully to the b-52 crash site on Elephant Mountain also.

    • @WeRmudfun
      @WeRmudfun  7 лет назад +1

      Thank you for your comment! :) We had been wanting to go there for sometime, so glad we got to see it. It should be a great visit for you seeing how you have family ties to it. The B-52 is a must see if you are in the area. Enjoy!

    5:30 Mother nature etc - the way abandoned things get covered with vegetation proves that Earth is young and The Flood really did cover the world about 4,350 years ago.
    If Earth was ancient and there had been no flood there would be solid fertile topsoil and vegetation over everything - there isn't and so we can deduce that much of Earth has not recovered from being washed clean by the flood.
    Worms and vegetation are necessary to rebuild topsoil and fertility.

      Thank you for turning this video into a needlessly religious statement.
      I suppose it is too hard to simply enjoy a video without making a religious statement, for those with no control.

    • @rosewhite---
      @rosewhite--- 7 лет назад +2

      5:25 'Mother Nature' is a religious but misleading statement - I merely set out the truth.

    Why do they call them the ghost trains if they don’t have any paranormal properties?

    • @WeRmudfun
      @WeRmudfun  6 лет назад

      Not really sure, possibly because they have been out there for so long, someone at one time did experience the paranormal. All we know is it was a cool adventure! :)

    • @5sec2hell81
      @5sec2hell81 6 лет назад +1

      WeRmudfun gotta agree, it does look like a fun hike. It’d be really cool if the trains like moved on they’re own or make some strange noises like whistles or something during the night. That would really give them a reputation. I really wanna go there now.

    • @WeRmudfun
