"Try to take it easy on the bumps, I got lumbago" - Uncle Santee, 2019
It's a slow and painful death, my brother... lumbago is serious!
@@deekhawkins7886 I know, I know.
@Cindy Klenk HAHA! "Hoofenmouth" I love it. Sorry for the delay on the response.
skin19head69 Lumbago was the true killer of the old west
That was my favourite bit 😂😂😂
Santee said “Lumbago”.
Lol
I love some of the old stage coach rules/advice for what to bring, what not to bring, and how to get along with other passengers. Kinda like the TSA guidelines of the day. A few that stick in my head are "no smoking of pipes or cigars inside the coach, to avoid offending other passengers noses" and "bring a bottle of spirits and pass it around"
Oh no, Lumbago! 😂
He's real sick sir, just ask uncle
Its life threatening!
This is weird. I am over 60 years old and never really thought about a stagecoach, that I can remember ever. Took a nap this afternoon and had a dream I died in a Stagecoach accident. The stage was going pretty fast when something spooked the horses and they exploded the stage flipped over and it was breaking apart and being dragged by the horses. It seemed like it really took a long time before the coach was reduced to splinters but it only took a few seconds. It was so real and scary as soon as I woke up I went on yt looking for anything I could find on stagecoaches!! Weird. But why on earth would you make a stagecoach out of steel?? I bet that thing is heavy!
I believe he made it out of steel so that it wouldn't take much maintenance. It had to carry toursists on a daily basis.
The concord! my favorite Santee! Gee so elegant to,for me is representation old west,You guys are so lucky to be born in united states of America.thumbs up for the ghostriders,many thanks.
Thanks, Marco.
Can you do a video about large gangs or posses?
Yes.
Crampiq k
@@boonewalters9460 what
Used to drive an original stage coach out at the Penrose ranch on Ft. Carson, Co. i LOVED IT! We also used to do weddings, and honeymoon cookouts for Soldiers and families. that was a lot of fun.
Oh man that sounds cool
The original 1939 John Ford Stagecoach has always been one of my favorite movies. 🙂
Classic!
In the 1990's, Wells Fargo still had a man in Texas making brand new
stage coaches that were displayed in their banks.
After the coming of the railroad, small stage coach lines, sometimes
consisting of hardly more than a wagon with 3 or 4 bench seats took
people from the rail depot to towns in the hinterland.
Santee can you talk about Gatling guns and Machine guns in the old west please?
Sure
Thank you!
@@ArizonaGhostriders we need this video
This day just became a whole lot better
Thanks!
Horses in the old west please
Santee, it was about 1960, we were in Columbia, California in the Gold Country. I would've been about five years old. My dad and I rode the stage coach, and we got robbed by stage robbers! Of course it was part of the show, but it scared the crap out of me! Great video!
Thank you!
Hey Santee, I'd like to see a video on gun accessories
-A boy with lumbago
Definitely makes me appreciate my car, but I’ll never forgot the awesome stagecoach tour of Tombstone that my wife and I took. Great video, Santee!
Thanks, Dustin.
Awesome i love the old technology from back then. Thank you for the knowledge brother.
Or hey how abut schools and books and stuf like that
Did one. Education in the Old West.
Old dictionaries have a lot of illustrations of wagons, rigs, and hitching. I've always liked that.
ask jack
good ole stage coach! another great Santee Production!
Hey Santee can you do a video on soldier's in the old west
Yes!
@@ArizonaGhostriders that's gonna be a LONG video, lotta different soldiers out here during western expansion, we had the US army, the Confederate army, the Mexican Army, at one point there was the Mormon Army (look up the Mormon war for those of you who didnt know of it), and some others i'm sure i'm missing. There was the French Army down in Mexico during the 1860s, but we dont talk about that hahah
@@jordanhicks5131 I would break it up. This week's 7 minutes about killed me. Just not enough time in the week with a FT job.
@@ArizonaGhostriders I hear ya there buddy, dont work too hard and burn yourself out. All work and no play makes Santee a very tired man.
@@jordanhicks5131 And whiskey helps.
Great video thank you for sharing this moment in old west history
Our pleasure!
So glad Rex entered the video. Y'all Rock!
Thank you! Much appreciated.
They say the Joinery in Concord stages was so perfect that one was lost off a ship in San Francisco bay, raised a year later, and put into service for like fifty more years.
Hmmm, I didn't know that about the submerged one. Cool.
Thankyou sir we still take a ride in one every year with the grandkids in Ocean City
Nice!
When i robbed the stagecoach in one of the missons your video popped up in my notifications lol
Yup! Thanks UA-cam!
I went to Old Tucson Studios with my parents back in 1971. I got to ride up with the driver . That was cool. My parents didn't like the bumpy ride inside though.
Fun!
Interesting, didn’t know there were that many companies, knew of the Overland/Fargo lines. Always learn something here.❤️👍🏼🤠. Always enjoyable.
Great to hear!
The lumbago comment killed me. 🤣
You never cease to teach me awesome things
Greetings from Ireland. Kinda makes you wonder how they kept those wheel's from falling to pieces considering the abuse they took.
Steel wheels on the part that goes on the ground, and many did break
Another great episode! Thanks for sharing!
Great video Santee! Always happy to see a new episode
Thanks!
Howdy Santee! I got a root canal yesterday, and it got me to thinkin' Have you ever done a video on dentistry in the old west?
Yes, I did. ua-cam.com/video/SdAIxnlBr2E/v-deo.html
I think With no Anistetic, whisky was the thing. I guess if You drank a bottle of whisky you wouldn't feel nothing but when you wake up!!
I rode the stagecoach at Knottsberry Farm a couple of times, loved it.
Nice!
Been there, done that, got a T shirt. Lol
Another great video
Thanks!
Loved the picture at 4:47! That's at Point of Rocks, Wyoming. About 30 miles from my town of Rock Springs.
I gotta get there one day!
My grandpa still watches the old black and white Wells Fargo TV show whenever it comes on
Great as Always !!!!!!
Thank You!
Hey Arizona ghostriders I love your channel it is so amazing and fun to watch. It teaches me so many things that I have questions about. Keep up the great work👍❤️
Thanks!
I found this video incredibly interesting and, as always, entertaining. Thank you!
Ah yes, the Greyhound bus of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Spartan as they were, no drinks, stewardess, and plenty of dust. Air conditioning was from wind, either from mother earth, the horses, or a passenger, drivers were not excluded.
Yes!
Do a vid on how childhood was like in the old west
Another great video Santee. Keep them coming. I always look forward to your videos.
Thanks, Eric!
I have to say i love learning and reading about the old west, mostly cause i grew up on westerns through my grandfather. I was honestly filled with joy at finding this channel! i cant wait for more videos and to watch your back catalog !
Thank you!
That contagious Terminal Lumbago is very serious
Great video!
0:35 Looking at the schedule from 1858, it is very interesting to note the times. From San Bernardino Ca to Fort Tejon (the Grapevine), was a distance of ~150 miles. At 4 1/2 mph, it took 32 hours to get there. Walking speed is 3-4 mph. A point could be made that, even today, I-210 from Berdu to I-5, and then up to Tejon, can seem just as long.
Ah...but today you have Spotify over Bluetooth and air conditioning! HA! Thanks for the comment.
I have a old gig in the barn it's actually pretty comfortable to ride in
Nice!
Thanks Santee. I really enjoyed this one. I've got a buddy up here in Idaho that rebuilds stagecoaches and makes them just like new. They're works of art.
Man, I wish I had one...but it won't fit in my garage.
@@ArizonaGhostriders Ahhhhhhhh ha ha ha ah
I rode a stagecoach in Frontier Town and shot an outlaw in the ribs with a Johnny Seven plastic bullet. He was not amused😑 but it sure put a smile on my face.😁
HAHAHA! Well, you gotta do what you gotta do, ya outlaw!
You guys are a hoot, as always!
Thank you!
A steel box for a Stagecoach? In Tucson? That must be fun in the summertime!
I can imagine. Seems like 110 degrees and steel box seems like a bad idea.
Definetly makes me want to take a ride. You made this topic extremely interesting. As far as the bacon, your not in NY anymore.
Santee and micah talking about lumbago! 2:48
👍363--Very very good! I enjoyed watching this wonderful video ... Good work! Welcome!
Thanks!
I was born and raised in Concord NH and we are constantly still riding the fact that we were the big coach manufacturer. Its like one of the first things i learned in school
Great stuff Santee !
Just stopped by to show support. Have a blessed day.
Thanks.
@@ArizonaGhostriders surething
Great stuff!
Thanks!
A good entertaining & informative video.
I worked on a Ranch just outside Lusk, Wyoming in the 90's. The Museum in Lusk has one of the original stages used on the Cheyenne to Deadwood Stageline. Worth a stop if you get near Lusk. The town was one of the stops on the route. Another stop was Mule Creek Junction, just north of Lusk. It was a "dugout" stage stop and local history says Mule Creek Jct is where Wild Bill and Calamity Jane heard about Custer's defeat.
I would love to check it out. Thanks for the travel tip!
Very amazing video well done and I love listening to your videos as I am blind and I am a white cane long cane user
Keep up the good videos!
Great video and nice to see Slim Pickens. Thanks Santee
Actually , that was Andy Devine. But they were similar.
Aww. It's always good to be reminded of Mel Blanc.
Right?
Hey Santee i applaud you for always doing extensive research to present an excellent response to your viewers questions!!👏👏👏👏 Well done!!👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
Another interesting video with some good historical information. THANKS
Thanks!
Hey man I love your channel
This is brilliant! Keep it up Santee!
Thanks.
Lot of fun. Good info.
Should do one on old west undertakers . Enjoy your videos. Very informative & entertaining.
I will.
Great video Santee 👍😎🤠 Our family still has the buggy my great grandpa used to ride in and the handheld plow and cultivator my great grandpa owned 👍😎 My Grandfather used to tell me stories on how he plowed the fields behind the horse-drawn plow now that's what you call hard work👍My Grandma was a school teacher and told me she used to ride to school in the buggy she had to get there early in the morning to start the fire to get the school warm before the kids got there I think teachers have it made nowadays maybe one on teachers in the old west thanks Santee 👍🍻🤠 🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅
Thank you for teaching me the actual name of the 2 stagecoaches. Never have I heard them called by their model name. I got to ride one at Knott's Berry farm in California. I enjoyed it.
Y'all cured my lumbago
Another great video Santee, I'd love to see one on the horses of the old west. Maybe something about the different breeds and jobs they had.
Santee, how about a video on small arms and concealable weapons in the old west?
Kind regards, Mark
I'll put it on the list, Mark!
You know Santee that your name is the same as a native American tribe. Did you ask the great Sioux nations for permission? Maybe you should.
I'll bet it was quite the ride being on top ... of the coach that is. Cave Creek, Arizona had a known Stage Coach stop known as Greasewood Flat, had a good burger and cold beer
Greasewood Flat is only 40 years old. I think you may be referring to Tortilla Flat?
wonderful my friend love your video
Thanks.
Very very cool
Thank you!
Great video, Santee!
The tracks from the old Butterfield Stage line are still there in the Anza Borrego desert.
One of the most comfortable seats I ever sat on in my life was the driver's seat on a stage coach.
Dang it to holy heck I love this channel!
Thanks! It's great to hear. You know, I'm jealous you rode up top. I almost asked Charlie if I could, but liability-wise it might have been no good.
The Concord is legend and such a part of American history.The image of the Concord coach is iconic. Largely supplanted by the railroad, stagecoaching continued into the early 1900s. Thanks for doing this episode. Very interesting and iconic of the West. Have you done a video on the Soldiers life or one about Wells Fargo? From 1852 to 1918, Wells Fargo moved customers and goods everywhere.
Hey, this was an informative video. Thanks for sharing.
Really Nice and very intresting! 👌
Thanks!
*I call Shotgun!*
Loved the video!
There is an excellent Wells Fargo museum at Old Town San Diego with a full size stage coach
So I understand!
Bumpy ride!!!
More sway-like.
Think rocking chair. With two axis of movement.
Okay I almost died from laughter after hearing about lumbago and green bacon 😆. Also would check to make sure the strong box is still there just in case if Bill has taken it.
You can bet it's gone if Bill was there!
Great video I can't imagine being crammed into a stage with lumbago lol
😄 great video!
Thanks for the visit
And now I keep hearing that song from The Music Man about the Wells Fargo Wagon comin down the street... Thanks Santee.... LOL! Seriously, another fun video.
HAHAH! Me too.
You making me miss Arizona moved to Colorado a few years back but that darn heat tho
I rode in a stage coach and an amusement park which featured wild West type of rides and shootouts and train robbers and such but they had a ride that was a stagecoach and I always like to ride on it. Because the outlaws were cute.
LOL! Always love the bad guys!
Something that you don't see in movies or TV is people riding on top of stagecoaches .
It was a common practice in the Old West .
Maybe even a little cheaper.
How about one on Mexican Charros in the old west
Hansen Wheel and Wagon shop has really nice rides.
Yes they do
I could have used one of them when I did my Stoeger review! Another great video Santee!
You coulda!
great topic this morning Cheese, thanks so much! Calico Ghost Town used to give rides in an old Concord back in the 70's.... it was pretty awesome :-)
Great video Santee
Thanks!
I wish I could be a Arizona ghost rider. A man can dream.
You are always welcome to come down to AZ and visit us.
When I get my license it'll be the first thing I do.
Santee!! 👍👍👍👍👍🇸🇪
🤠
I know you guys already did one on jackets but you should do one on winter coats!
