I ended up here somehow? and stayed to watch. I like train history, but don't go looking for it. Why I stayed is because the video was so well done. You don't find all that many vids that are well put together-they have an actual "intent" and they stick to expanding the story in a logical, easy to understand manner, with short comprehensive "shots" that keep the interest going. Very nicely done.
jocko john agreed! This was great!

Jocko john, same here, not sure how I got here (maybe train snow blowers) I stayed till the end also. Very interesting video.
Me to ended up here after a trail of good videos. Very interesting and well made great job! I was on the right track! Sorry xD
Me too, very interesting stuff.
As a bicycle enthusiast, the first thing I thought of is making a modern Velocipy using modern electric pedal assist technology. Imagine how peaceful it would be to ride by yourself through some scenic canyons and mountains in Colorado.
Buena Vista to Leadville might be a start...abandoned, unused track....I've hiked those rails north a few miles, from Buena Vista to the railroad bridge over the Arkansas River and the exact same thought came to me...how relaxing to pedal or motorize yourself through that pristine mountain scenery!
I just want to point out that I only found this after seeing a vid of someones diy bike speeder for riding rails. Had a swing out arm for lining up the other rail from his bike.
@@robertallen6710 Since I made my original post about having an electric Velocipy I discovered that there's a place in Boulder Nevada that offers just that. An electric rail-kart tour..
@@Zer0cul0 saw that exact same post this morning,think it would be a great hobby.The local railway authority in Fort Erie Ontario(by the peace Bridge) might have other ideas though.They keep a close watch.
ruclips.net/video/NZXf3SVcoao/видео.html is pretty cool
This guy is a darn good speaker, should have his own show..
You clearly haven't seen him on tv. He's on pawn stars all the time
He has here on RUclips.
He show up on American Restoration all the time. They restore many of the items for the museum.
Thanks for showcasing the vehicles.
Greetings from Düsseldorf, Germany.
I leave this under every video I watched, it helps the algorithm..
@julian Heers 😂
why do you think it helps the algorithm? #highaf
thank you and it did
Mark, thank you for an excellent documentary. There is no unwanted music, no fellows with nose-rings drinking beer and talking rubbish. This is an example of a PERFECT documentary. A hundred years of railroad history revealed in 7.09 minutes. Well done !
Thank you for a refreshingly Concise and informative video. No goofy background music no long laborious introduction. Just the facts ma’am..... beautiful.
Good to see Im not the only one who appreciates that.
....and perfect audio!
None off this relying on the ‘in camera’ microphone.
Well done.
This is the spirit of RUclips.
I'm 2nd Generation Railroader. This vid brings back Great Memories.
I came here randomly and stayed to the end. Thank you for spending my time "efficiently" You covered a lot of info quickly and interestingly. You are very easy to listen to. Very enjoyable and informative. Thank you ! ! ! (from AUSTRALIA)
In Orrville, Ohio there's a club that will offer rides on rail Speeders for Boy Scouts and other groups. I went with my son and a bunch of kids and their parents. I was given the chance to ride in an SW9 switch engine. The rides were on a spur the went from the main line into a factory area in Orrville.
Not sure how I landed on this video, but it was great :D
Me too
same haha :D
Me too
IKR
metrobug same
I grew up watching the trains go by and that once every couple of years a speeder went by was "the talk" for a few days. Thanks for a nice presentation.
I think I found my new hobby! I know there are some abandoned railways in Arizona. I am gonna have to dig deeper into this.
Wow was gripped as you did a amazing job of keeping entertaining engaging and sharing your knowledge. thanks Mark
As a kid living by the railroad tracks, w saw what we called Jiggers. They were enclosed. In later years when living in NW Ontario in the 60's I was in remote areas and got to ride in jiggers with the what they called the signal maintainers for the CNR. thank you, brought back great memories
Og Rail Guy i like your teaching aproach. not too much info, nor too little. just enough and way you go.
This is one of the best sperg vids for railroads
Thanks for the video! Excellently presented and very educational.
I **love** those old-style up-and-down "gang-cars"!
You can't help thinking about all of the old movies that feature them!
Blazing Saddles comes to mind
Thank you for the education about railroad history, I just happened to watch the video of the 4 retired friends that did South America railroad bike journey
I was at the museum two years ago! As kids we use to steal the speeder and run up and down the tracks with it .. always putting it back and making sure it was clean .. they never caught us! LOL
I guess they probably knew, but we're kind enough to think that you're not gonna do anything bad
This was a lovely watch
Thats fantastic. Thank you. Nice to know we can travel the tracks.
Very nice, informative, and educational video, shot in a gorgeous area of our country.
Thanks for posting it...a lot of people will find it helpful in learning all about railroads! 😃👌
As a fellow railfan, I have often wondered about the use of rail bikes and speeders. Today, this video popped up and answered my questions and more! Thanks! I hope to visit this place in Ely soon!👍👍
120522/0607h PST 🇺🇸 Thank you very much, Sir. The explanation was admirable. Very eloquently spoken and made people understand the intricate evolution of Railway inspection vehicles. Bravo.
the date is dec 26th 2020 , now i am no train enthusiast but mark made me stay by how amazing he tells the story
Man I love trains... I don’t know how I landed here either but I liked the video. Feel like a kid again
What a fun video! I really enjoyed seeing the different rail carts, from the velociped, all the way up to a high rail truck.
Thanks, Mark, for that great history Lesson!
I also ended up here by accident and love it. Great channel.
That first model is very intriguing
Hello from Belgorod, Russia. Thanks for this interesting content. Hope to visit Nevada asap. Take me hoooooome, country roooooads.
Glad I found this video. Very interesting.
Excellent well made video!
No one:
RUclips recommendation in 2021: This video
Thank You for letting us use your railroad for our spenders and rail bikes.
Saw this gentleman several times on American Restorations on the History Channel, having many rail associated items being restored to original condition. Very dedicated to the rail cause.
Fantastic video
Several of the old country music stars had their own rail riders, from time to time one would see where they got detained by police in the newspaper. My first wife was the grand daughter of the first conductor on the Tweetsie Railroad and much of her family worked for Clinchfield RR. Thanks for an interesting and informative video.
Question ...
How efficiently do you inspect a Railtrack when you ride fast with air conditioning and tunes on?
Very efficiently!
I imagine the car conversion isn't used on main lines, in the UK we have trains with laser rail scanners that run regularly and find cracks or distortions before they become dangerous.
Thanks for the video. I'll be watching all of your videos.
Thanks ..well done.. looks like a lot of fun
i love this video and truly love rail history
One of these with modern light-weight materials would be fantastic....
NNRy1 I love your presentation thank you, so much very educational and interesting.
Thank you so much for the history and a look at MOW inspection vehicles. Now, I need to plan a trip to your museum.
Thanks, Mark. Very nicely done video.
fascinating. when i was a kid i wanted to build a hand car. was not allowed. 😩🍻
Build one now
Just the tip. band: Can't or wont? Archer rules!
This video is the perfect video!
From India. Rail fan. Your video was full of information. In India foot patrolling is done. The path way inspectors use trolleys fitted with motorcycle engine.
Very informative and enjoyable , Thank You Mark..
What a wonderful and informative channel.
I always like anything you do!
Nice you showed all of the vehicles for track inspection or work. I happen to own a Sheffield velocipede, a hand car, and a Fairmont Railway Motors B-4 car that was sent to the signal maintainer of the Pere Marquete RR at Holly, MI in 1941.
Hand cars date from around the war between the states.
Great video...👍
Mark beautifully explained all the different forces used to inspect the track..
Muscle+mechanical efforts really brought revolutionary ideas in smooth and safe running of rail cars... beautifully videographed... Very informative 👍👍
Дякую за цікаву екскурсію
Looks like a great time. Can't wait to get out there this summer.
That was really interesting. Thank you for putting this together.
An excellent presentation.
Great vid. I used to drill thru rail for bonding with a hand wound drill ; to install transducers. When you use a gas or electric bonder the hole is too sloppy. Go hand wound and muscle power on rail ! Still in use today.
Lived in western Ok as a kid with a Rock Island line running behind our house. We would watch the speeders go by and wish we could ride them. But we always called them "The Putt Putt Car" !
All those months I lived and worked in Ely I never went to the museum. Now that I'm retired I have to go back! (I never found any garnets at that stupid hill, either--now I absolutely have to go back!)
What a great and interesting video! Thank you and I need to come and visit!
Thanks Mark.
Nice video, I learned something!
Thank you Mark very interesting and well done. Greetings from Australia.
Great video. Thank you.
Great video! Super informative and really educational.
Thank you.
very good video top marks for that
thank you for the lesson. magnificent
This was so interesting. I just wanted to show my daughter what the hand cars look like and we found this in the search results. A great presentation. Interesting too that you are on the Ely Route (I will need to look into what that is exactly), as we live near a town called Ely, in England. Greetings from the UK.
Hello Mark,
I have watched you on a few episodes of "Rick's restoration". Glad you have a u tube channel. 🚂
I never knew what a velocipede was until I watched this video. Thanks for the info.
I did enjoy this video. Like alot of people, I have a great interest in anything to do with trains. I will subscribe today so I won't miss any of your videos.
Thank you
This randomly got suggested for me. What excellent content.
great video!
Very interesting video
most important feature rear view mirror
Hard hat and safety vest .... nice touch. Cant take chances.
Cool video. Got here while random browsing from spelunking through RC airplane crashes. I would love to have one of the trucks that can drive on rails and just surf the world on forgotten railway tracks. That would be great!
Very nice and interesting share thank you
Sounds exciting 😀 Tomas 🚂
Not sure how I got here, but that looked really cool!
My family and I took the steam train up to the Mine and back. Beats the Santa Cruz Cog steamer by a mile. But there all great. Thanks
Well made video and lots of fun to watch!
Great vid !!! I've through Ely a number of times but never was able to ride your rails. Maybe next time.....
WELL DONE !
