- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- On March 13th I met up with @JawTooth @1960gambit @GY51360 @SimonsEMDProductions and @AdventureswithJoeyBoats in Vandalia for a day of Railfanning. Jaw Tooth's favorite Train UA-camr is @TheHoboShoestring, unfortunately, Hobo Shoestring passed away since this video was recorded so it will be dedicated to his memory.
Most of my videos are filmed along the CSX Toledo Sub and the Norfolk Southern Dayton District around Carlisle Ohio.

My husband disappeared on a trip to visit the birthplace of Bob Dylan, Duluth Minnesota. He wasn't quite right but he was the love of my life. A Hobo is a person searching. I hope Shoestring has found his place.
Thank you for those lovely comments.
I'm a 63 year old son of a railroad man myself and a true fan of Shoestring!! He will always be a real treasure to all of us railroad fans !! His spirit lives forever as I watch those freight train passing by!! Goodbye, my friend !! RIP
Shoestring was a rare individual. When I watched his videos I often wondered how he could ride the trains, day after day and year after year, record his travel adventures like he did, and stay sane. I could do it for a few days, maybe a week, but not like he did. He gave us a great first hand account of hobo life in the modern day.
Rip Shoestring keep riding them golden rails up there in heaven
Hobo Shostring was such a good guy! We all know he is in peace ❤️
Jawtooth you and Shoestring keep me going while out on workers comp for 3 years! God bless you both! Shoestring is riding the rails in heaven.
Been following Shoe for about 7 years!! Kind mellow fellow!! I love trains, so his adventures were very relaxing and interesting. Gonna miss seeing him and hearing his stories.
Fair winds and following seas . May father's light shine upon him in eternal Peace 🕊️
I now think of him whenever I travel (trucker) through places like Front Royal VA, Knoxville TN, Jonesboro TN, Radford VA, Roanoke VA, Hagerstown MD, Binghamton NY, etc. When I think about Alaska (the ferry ride, the Klondike Hwy)God, I'm going to miss that man 😢😢😢♥️♥️♥️
Same here
I want to thank Shoestring for recording his adventures riding the rails. His legend will live on forever in the hearts of his family, friends and fans.
Godspeed 🛤️
Thank you, Lost Depot for sharing Mark's Tribute, I will be sharing this post Globally for ll to see. Mark was my friend also, and his adventures still live in my heart and I will never forget this man of adventure and the trains he rode on. Thanks to Jaw Tooth, and all the Southern Ohio Railfans for posting the very best of train videos anywhere in the USA. God Bless you all.
Thanks
He's riding those rails made of gold now. R.I.P. Shoestring ❤
Very sad to hear of his passing..Iv enjoyed all his videos so much in detail.!! Will be sadly missed by all of us train lovers im sure..!!
We lost a complete library of knowledge. He probably knew the rails better than anyone, employees included. Plus he's a veteran.
Great tribute, never met in person, but he always replied to my comments. He will be missed....
I don't know about all that now . He definitely knew a lot more than you foamers think you know . now bells and whistles you might know about all I cared about was if they had one . lets no go overboard here.
He was a brilliant man, with a good heart, and an awesome story teller…. RIP ShoeString💙
Prayers for the family friends railfans of hoboshoestring
I'm a 67 year old home body, someone you'd never expect would like his videos, but I found his videos so entertaining, informative and refreshing. I especially appreciate learning survival techniques from him! I hope to meet him someday soon in a better world. Thankful to Hobo Shoestring for all the hours he shared. I'm deeply saddened by this news. I wanted to see a video because I was having trouble sleeping tonight and trains relax me.
Jaw Tooth
Very nice video.
Rest In Peace to your friend Hobo Shoestring 🙏🙏🙏
It saddened me to learn of Shoestring's passing. He was certainly a living legend. The rails are an emptier place without him. He gave the high iron so much heart and soul.
R.I.P. Shoestring! 💚💛💜
He will be missed by everybody rest in peace
I feel him every time I see a train now. Bittersweet for sure❤.
When he was alive, I thought of him while trucking down Interstate 81 South near Johnson City, Tennessee. I still will ❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢
When did this happen??
@@timothysmith7436 ...he was found 5 april 2024. sad face
First Stobe, now Shoestring. Man....😢❤❤❤
I miss both of them.
Every time I see train's rolling down the track I will think of all the Hobo's RIP ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He will be greatly missed by all those who enjoyed watching his adventures on the rails. God Bless Hobo Shoestring.
Legendary 👍🏽1️⃣🙏🏼
He sure was.
Enjoyed the tribute to shoe string, prayers to his sisters and family and friends
Sure would like too see Shoestrings funeral service and final place of rest.
Just want to say whoever put this out appreciate it. I’ve been watching shoestring for the last just about ever since he started we’re going to missing a lot maybe be there another hobo up there that I can grab them to and watch him for a while he staying with it.
I wanted to meet a few UA-camrs shoestring,jaw tooth and steve wallis
I would love to meet Steve Wallis. He's had a rough past year also with Crazy Neighbor just passing away a week or so ago.
A favourite memory is Shoestring wolfing down a bag of Famous Amos cookies and washing it down with Gold Peak ice tea… in a DPU
Wow Jawtooth, I am impressed that many trains one offer another, I know its tech magic, Good looking out for Shoestring tribute, He's one of a kind, True and blue, RIP Mark.
Lost Depot posted this tribute video to Hobo Shoestring!!

I sent hoboshoestring family a sympathy card
#eugenekleis that's cool I wish I had their mailing address so I could write them
LD, Nice tribute video! Hopefully they have a spot for him in Britt Iowa. Maybe they can donate some of his things to the Hobo Museum!
Enjoyed the video RIP Hobo Shoestring..May all your signals be green
As soon as I started watching Shoestrings videos i looked at train in a whole new way and now that feeling is even stronger. As I sit here and cry I also smile because of all I learned from you are favorite Hobo. And now his pain is gone and he can spend some time with his son. Godspeed my friend. Brian

Thank you. He will be missed.

A BIG THANK YOU. KEEP the video up.
Thank you for doing this post. We will all miss him.😢❤
Hey Jaw Tooth, you don’t know me and I’m pretty sure we’ll never meet in this life, but I’ve been a railroad enthusiast for fifty years and you were probably the first person I followed on UA-cam. Your work eventually led me to Shoestring and others (ACL, rail world, etc among others) I appreciate your “honor and recognition of Shoe String . Thank you.
Sorry this isn't Jaw Tooths channel. I just ask him questions from time to time when we run into each other. But watching Jaw Tooth is the reason I started my channel.
Well , as far as hobo lingo goes - - we all hèad east through life but we head west only once and we're done with the mortal world . I hope there is steam and diesel power in the beyond . The good lord bless you and keep you in the land of un-cloudy days . Not goodbye good sir , but so - long to ya Mark .
Great MEMORIES. for a great soul. Thanks
Well done thankyou
The awesome thing about hobo shoestring
He was himself and a lot of people most likely would agree with that ,no matter what be yourself live life on your own terms, don't worry about what other say.
Rest in peace shoestring you will be missed but you are in a lot better place now the great train in the sky
Nobody is really saying how he passed away but I can always go to his channel and watch all of his videos and Adventure
R.I.P. HOBO SHOESTRING

HE WAS TRUE AMERICAN ICON RIP HOBO SHOESTRING
Yes, he was.
I hope someone that loved him writes a book about him. He was a modern day folk hero.
@@JenO-ut1vn And/or Makes an independent film for festivals.
Not just in the US but the world over, we all that much poorer for his unfortunate loss.😢
@@JenO-ut1vnI was thinking the same thing!
Dear HoboShoestring.

God bless you Shoestring, a legend a national treasure. Missed already. 💔😥🙏
Well done Chris

Awesome captures Lost Depot!! RIP Shoestring ❤️
Thank you
He had so much knowledge in everything he did.
I’m going to especially miss his Alaska adventures since we have both lived in and love Alaska. Rest Easy Brother Mark “HOBO SHOESTRING” Nichols😢🙏
Although I never met him, I feel like I've lost a friend. always looked forward to the next video.
Same
Hobo Shostring, he caught the "Westbound", R I P.
into the sunset - very appropriate.
Aint no brakeman on that train , thank you hobo .
Makes me sad. He loved that sound.
I live in South west Ohio been a subscriber of Mark / Shoestrings a couple year's now I sure wish I found his channel sooner Mark/ Shoestring was so down to earth & personable I feel like I knew him, & it actually brought tears to my eyes when he went missing & then found where he was, & the thought he won't ever be uploading new videos hurts also, I'll never forget this man true American Icon of our rail system in the 🇺🇸UNITED STATES 🇺🇸 & where I live we have a main rail line going through my small town I live less than two blocks away from 4 crossings so we here hear ALOT of Horns Everytime I hear them horns blow Mark / SHOESTRING instantly comes to mind, almost like a hello from Mark Bitter sweet for sure I think I'll smile for his memory & wave at the conductors when I see them from now on in marks memory also R.I.P.🌹🕊️🪽🇺🇸 MARK / SHOESTRING 🇺🇸-🚂🚂💨💨💨& GOD BLESS YOU 🙏
What a guy and still wondering Why?
Someone needs to put we miss you hobo shoesting on one of the grainers . With approval .
Can't believe he is gone loved him
Rest in peace hoboshoestring train riding man was a good man on UA-cam
thank you so much jawtooth ..RIP HOBO SHOESTRING
❤️
RIP Mark... xee you one day...❤
i am missing shoestring I loved his experiences and stories, even sadder is I know sometimes he would come through ohio and I was hoping one day to meet him, guess I will have to wait for the fulfillment of john 5:28-29 to meet him. I am so sorry he did not get t he help he needed, I have had friends who commit suicide, in fact two of them were brothers they were so close when one killed himself via hanging his younger brother followed suit their mom and step dad were so distraught, I am sure they still cry to this day even tho it has been like 15 years. my friends hubby commited suicide, and we think another sister (spiritural) accidentally killed herself, (she had mania/depression) due to medication taking due to serious leg injury, we dont know if she forgot she took her meds or did so om purpose will never know until Gods new world soon to come.
Did anyone confirm he ended his life? I felt that way soon as I heard he was in the water and left his things at home.
I was hoping to get to met him one day also.
There has not been one word implied he committed suicide. Its has been said he was confused and hallucinating it means just that. You can assume he committed suicide and that's all that is . if your confused and you walk in front of a semi truck and it kills you does that mean you committed suicide . Give the man a break he was far more intelligent than those of you that assume . Sorry that's just the way it is be respectful .
Love you.
