Mysterious Abandoned Waterfront Caboose House Hidden in the Woods!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 июл 2024
- What a find! In 1986 a husband and wife purchased the 100 acre farm for $90,000. They lived in the farmhouse and continued to farm for a number of years. They decided to place an old caboose and rail car at the very back of the property to use as a cabin. Later they let a man live there off grid and he built a 2 bedroom addition on the back of the caboose. Once the owners passed away the man moved out and the property was sold in 2003. The farmhouse was demolished but the off grid caboose house sits abandoned and nature is slowly taking over. Thanks again to Rob for letting me know about this amazing location.

About me:
I have been exploring abandoned places since I was a child and now I would like to film the explores and share the videos with you.
My father took me to my first abandoned house when I was 7 years old. I remember going into the house and a old farmer came in and told us "we better watch out as the floors are all rotten and unsafe". Ever since that day I was hooked on exploring abandoned places.
If you have a location you would like to share with me or want me to explore for you please send me an email at abandonedurbexcanada@hotmail.com and I will give you full credit for the share in the description and during the video if you choose.

My brother was an unconventional person and was drawn towards living like this. He would have loved seeing this explore. RIP, Melonhead. ❤
Hazard pay, LOL Thanks Brent!
Oh wow bsage! Thank you very much! Very kind of you. Hazardous place for sure 🤣
This episode reminded me of a book I read when I was 9 or 10 called The Boxcar Children. I loved this book so thank you for reminding me of it.
Me too😊
Boxcar children is still around and loads of books still being written. 😊
My father-in-law worked his entire career on the railroad. The first car you explored (beginning at 3:12) looks like a bunkhouse. The men would sleep in them when they were out in the middle of nowhere fixing the tracks. Love the channel, and the way you’re always respectful of the sites you visit.
My grampa worked as an engineer for the Soo Lines.
Yes it was a bunkhouse! 👌🏻
Thanks for letting us explore with you.
You’re welcome!
That would have made a sweet holiday home if it had been maintained. Someone worked really hard on that back in the day, and put a lot of thought into it.
They had their own piece of paradise.
*Always sad and melancholy, this was somebody's home. Somebody lived here, slept here, had a life and dreams here and now they're gone and it's victimized by hooligans and vandals.* 😕😞
I thought the same thing. Sad vibes, like someone lived here and was trying hard to get by.
Thank you Brent another great explore. Love how it’s so close to the river. The inside looks so much bigger than on the outside. Love how they made it into a home. It’s neat seeing all the mildew and moss over everything. Be careful we don’t want you hurt❤️
That would have been a great spot to camp out. Looks like they had all the necessities covered.
Great explore Brent. Too bad the place is covered in trash. The place does't look like it was well taken care of. Hey; soap is cheap. Thanks for sharing with us.
This place was awesome. Thanks for sharing with us
Oh God! All the trash laying around in such a beautiful location breaks my heart!!!
That extended cab Nissan looks exactly like the one my Aunt & Uncle drove for most of the 80's. During the summers, when my uncle changed shifts in the oilfield industry, I spent hours sitting on one of those uncomfortable jump seats catching a ride to visit my grandparents. The jump seats were so low I couldn't see out the windows, and I'd bring a few books to read, but my uncle chatted to me most of the trip - probably to stay awake - so I rarely got any reading done! Thanks for sharing this explore.
A friend of mine bought a caboose. They are very heavy & require a crane to lift on & off a low boy flatbed. They weigh around 22 tons. He was a truck driver & knew a local heavy crane company so it kept the cost of moving down. I would love to ask him more details but unfortunately he died from covid. RIP Red Beard
Thank you for sharing your story with us.
RIP to your friend.🧡
@@8_x_9. He was the most rootiness tootiness truck drivin, Harley ridin, stripper seducing,crank snortin,booze hound hard workin,hard partying dude I have ever met. I just cannot believe that the Kieth Richard's of all gear jammers was takin out by fuckin Covid. I couldn't even go to his funeral because I was in jail. I 44yrs old but will never get used to friends & loved ones just being "No longer" or simply "Gone" It's never the assholes right?
I'll leave a note for yall in the future when you find my place like this after I escape ❤
Canada is a bit cold but worth it maybe, the countryside is unreal in beauty
Thank you as always for taking us along to explore such a unique place!!
I like that the medicine cabinet is the old enclosure from a Toshiba Tosvert-130 E1 Transistor Inverter
Thanks for saying what it was before it became a medicine cabinet. So it would have opened from the right? Of course! It’s a right handed world. Us lefties make up approximately one in nine people. Even baby strollers come with the bottle/beverage holders on the right side. Oh well, we soon learn to adapt.
I’ve seen one before but can’t think of where I seen it. Great idea using it as a medicine cabinet 👌🏻
Really nice spot back in the woods along the river. Set up for a nice retreat. The railcar and caboose must have been an engineering feat to get in there. Bonus school bus LOL! Glad you didn't get to banged up on this one. Awesome explore for sure!! Thank you Brent for all the leg work!❣
Glad you enjoyed it, I really loved it there and was so much fun exploring this place. Love these ones 👌🏻
That was completely different! What a great property! Thanks…
Throwing rocks at the caboose was a right of passage in the 80's
Yikes!!!! What a nasty mess,gladyou made it out alive!!
What a awesome explore 👌 😎. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊.
Whoever lived there had a nice place too stay indeed.
Fresh coat of paint, good as new!
What a great find. Really makes you think, how short time is, and it breaks down so fast.
You need to bring a flashlight with you
This is so cool and such a great spot! I had no idea boxcars/cabooses were that large inside. Thank you for showing this to us. 🙂
Yesss! The wife and i have missed you! Definitely gonna give it a watch tonight!
Hope you enjoy it!
Makes you wonder who lived out there and what happened to everyone. Thanks for sharing. Great video
Glad you enjoyed it!
Happy Easter
@@AbandonedUrbexCanada
@@billgoeckel6344happy Easter!
Looks to me like the river floods that area.
Woow what a surprise I didn't expect a new video tonight my favorite explorer 🥳 what a awesome,cool place 👏 you're the only one,you're the best 💪👏👏 thanks for another great adventure existing adventure with you 😁 Big kiss and hug for you from Serbia 🇷🇸 ❤ Be careful 🇨🇦❤️
Wow that was amazing. The chap had all mod cons really considering he was off the grid, thank you for showing us. 🇬🇧
Very cool. And so ingenious. I like the independence and ingenuity. Self sufficient and living simply. Great find!
Love hearing the back stories.
Makes me wonder if the guy living there was a draft Dover, hiding away from being sent off to war. Timeline kinda makes sense. What a cool find!
Yeayy🎉😊. Brent is back👍💪❤️
Good one Brent. Lots of interesting junk. Safety first when wandering and handling. See ya on the next one
Would be a beautiful place to clean out and build a nice cabin!!
Saturday morning ,cup of coffee and my favourite explorer !! That was one of your best explores Brent - what a little piece of paradise it must have been when living there was still viable! Thank you for all the effort you put in to your videos and I look forward to the next one! Gill 🇬🇧
Glad you enjoyed it Gill! 👌🏻
What a wonderful find Brent...love how they used the railcar and the caboose to live in. So totally out of place and yet so intuitive to use as a living structure. Thanks for taking us along with you to see this stuff. 😁
This last one was a hard one to watch
I feel my time here slipping away
Someday all that I know will slip away
This brings back memories of a story book called The Boxcar Children that our teacher would read a chapter to us after lunch.
What a great location! This would be a perfect spot to go to in the summer ❤
Tried not to get too excited when I saw you had uploaded another vlog.
Great explore I loved it- as of course I love you Brent - your enthusiasm and the respect you show for others "treasures"!!!😅
Never change and thank you for sharing your discoveries with us.
Love
Janice 🇬🇧 xx
Thanks Janice!
I need to find some of thos abandoned camps stuff u find
Reminds me of the children's book series. The Boxcar Children. Interesting to explore.
A very unique spot Brent. Too cool. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great piece of history on this place and such a beautiful spot. Would have been a nice home in it time. I want that tiny radio :o) These kinds of places would be great for a couple of seniors on a fixed income. Thanks Brent. Stay safe and Happy Easter!!
Wow, what a really good location this was! Thanks for sharing your exploration with us. -Maine, USA
Hi Brent
What a cool and different exploration. Imagine people living in a caboose. It’s cool
by the river. Must have been nice when people lived there. That bus must be there
decades judging how far into the ground it sunk. There was a lot of garbage left
behind like those vehicles and the trash on the ground. I really liked this one Brent.
I wish you would post more videos more often. Anyway stay safe and well.👍🆒🚞
I really enjoyed this one! Old train cars are so cool.
Thanks! I agree! Super cool
Cool place i expect it was a beautiful place to live they seem to have everything they needed to live a comfortable life right by the river what more could you want great explore thanks for sharing.
The big truck looked like about an 86 Ford.
That place sure was different, amazing how some people lived but interesting to see.. 😀
Nice explore 👌
Thank you for the tour of this explorers dream I'd love to see these places thats cool how they used rail cars and a caboose and a bus sad to see its abandoned sad when familys pass away thank you for showing up
Very cool place 😊
What a nice spot to set up housekeeping…. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you
Cool video
what a great place. Would love to live next to that river, grew up next to one and miss it so
Hello Brent great video .
Glad you enjoyed it!
Funny how some people lived. I went to a home that had a shed out back, wall papered, a down and out relative lived there.
This one totally and completely creeped me out! I don't know why. I was relieved when it was over. A totally different vibe than the other "caboose" video you did. And even different than the houses that have been seriously trashed and decayed. And it looked like they had KIDS living in there. Yikes!
Good One. Ty
Cool video sir, thank you.
Glad you liked it!
I don’t understand why the farmhouse would be torn down, but leave all that mess behind! It needs to be all cleaned up and hauled off!! It’s by a beautiful river and leaving all that mess isn’t environmentally safe! I hope it gets cleaned up! Thank you Brent for showing this, and that you’re not hurt!! Take care always! ❤
Taxes.
Taxes are way lower now as it’s just farmland
Good off grid location
Thanks for sharing …makes me wonder what it looked like back then..the bathroom was unique 😊
Your head is killing me 😂😂😂😂
the carriages were removed from the carts and the first of them seemed to be used as a carpentry workshop, in the video several times in the frame, a shed for drying lumber, with lumber inside, as well as a bunch of machines for working with wood, and the school bus was most likely completely removed from the chassis. ..
WOW . Brent , THANK YOU so much 4 brining us along YAback in the day it would of been a awesome place 4 sure . SOME ONE MAY clean it up mayb and clear it all out , for sure MAYBE .
What an incredible place it could be if one employs a cleanup crew!
Cool explore, Brent, thanks for taking us with you.
You are right. It's unlivable.
What a great find and exploration! I kept imagining what it all looked like back in the day. I bet it was really cool! I am thinking the shed that is made out of garage doors was probably a workshop of some sort and the wood was stored in the rail car. The layout of the caboose and addition to it is so neat along with the location right next to the river! I can just imagine that awesome greenhouse with beautiful flowers and green foliage in it. I am also thinking that at one time squatters lived there and the place was ransacked. I can't believe all the stuff that was left there, like the snowmobile and vehicles and so forth and that school bus is great. Stay safe out there Brent! Wonderful video, thank you! 👍😊
❤thanks for sharing this.
25:46 I really wonder if that couple in the photo is even still alive also I really thought that hot water system was pretty cool as well 😎👍
So cool thank you
You owned the land the best thing to do is pull a late model trailer there and build a wooden cover over the top so the trailers would last for years.
I totally love your intro music 🎵🎶 song whatever it is i like it
Beautiful view
Very cool place!
Thanks you for that one
Very cool.
Let’s go ❤️🥳🥾🏡!! Thank you, always!!
This was a cool place!
there were books in the first room, i would have like you check those books. We also see a yellow engine stand in the outdoor, whoever lived there had some mechanical skills. Very cool exploration
Great exploration
Really interesting and a great video Brent!!
I think this was an interesting and creative approach to housing. Im sure it was clean and taken care of before the humans left in 2009. Thanks, Brent
Interesting setup. 😊
What a great explore! I can imagine the family was trying to live an off grid self sustainable lifestyle by some of the items you came across! Too bad it looks like their dream was cut short. Very inventive 😊
I swear, I saw this property in a movie.
Thanks that place was awesome I enjoyed watching
Glad you enjoyed
You were right, that's a explorers dream! So much stuff to look at. The amount of decay as well really adds to the location. Looks like it may have been ransacked at some point. Nice explore!
thank u It most have bin a amazing place in the days gone by.
Great explore Brent! This was a very interesting find! Thanks for sharing!😊❤
Hello
We're. Was. This. Taken I'm. From. Edmonton ❤❤😂😮😊🎉
What a unique find and explore 👍 Hope you always carry a first aid kit considering all the sharp wood and metal objects. Keep safe my friend.
