Nothing looked more natural than Steve standing next to that anvil. Heavy metal. My grandpa worked in some kind of a machine shop. Wish I knew more about it now. He used to come home pretty beat up. Worked your butt off just to keep food on the table and a place to stay. Not much left over for anything else.
Really enjoyed this one, hadn’t ever seen it on here before. Still can’t get over the size of the moldboard hangin on the side of the plow engine. It actually reminds me of the adjustable moldboard on the road wideners I used to get called out of the hall to work on and run. Great video
Your work ethic and persistence is admirable. I dig the idea, keep doing you. Your knowledge, wanting to share it along with being an honest man is very much respected and appreciated 👍
Oh yea. The Legendary number 40. I have been to this yard many times and rode both of those trains up to Ruth and back, The number 40 steam whistle is my ring tone on my cell phone. Thank you for sharing, Steve.
These are the vids I like. Very much looking forward to more of these. Me and my dad would go out to old mining claims and rail yards when I was a kid. Just me and him every spring and fall. I was at that one you just filmed at about 40 years ago. I'm digging up old pics now as I'm writing this. It was back in the 70s. He has passed about 25 years ago. A lot of cool history at those locations
. It's too bad that's all becoming a lost art . Most kids today couldn't even lift that material , let alone work it ! That big wing plow would also be used for shelving early season storms to make room for later season snow . Pretty cool stuff . Thanks for puting it out there .
Darnell, you nailed that one for thinking outside the box. Looking at the safety first sign and thinking to myself before you even showed it in the background, where is the sign that said "X" number days with out a accident. That anvil with its tool holder peg needed some of the tools that fit it there where you could grab them and shape the steel your working with into a piece ready for the hammer press and how many fingers and thumbs laid on the ground when some guy with a two day hangover missed and took a guys hand off. All those tools hanging that blacksmith knew just exactly what they were for. I could smell the creosote in those ties thinking "what were they thinking" health be damned. I wanted to mention to you that up to date videos coming from canada middle ground clear across canada they must not do re bar there as the old cars, trucks, coe's, mobile homes and motor homes in the wrecking yards with lots of good metal left in them, not frame up restores but rigs that could be massaged to life again. I seen this one place up there for sale with enough on the front row to pay for the whole place. Barron dessalett (way out of anywhere)place where there was newer stuff with cummins engines and other stuff just setting cause it broke down and got towed including some bad ass tow rigs all there for the low price of (they don't tell you) in the Alberta area and on one of the main highways but no one really working. Even a nice shop (decent I would rate it) with tool boxes and shit everywhere. Like a rich man spent it all there and didn't have a clue or just lost interest in my perfect place to die welding up or what ever. Turn key I figure. Shame to see it all turn to shit if someone doesn't save it. You could be in two countries doing what you love collecting stuff that will disappear. Even better is the fact that they did see one thing good, All fords in one spot, all chevys one spot, all cryslers in one and motor homes in one spot and not bunched together. Plenty of room to grow, large trucks too. If I were younger, I would be on it like flies on shit. I have seen enough videos to tell that they are not scraping cause it costs too much to truck the steel. Hope that you look into it... even old time gas pumps... you name it and its there. Best a luck Steve and doen't inhale the gas, exhale it or the brain man
Can you imagine how hot that blacksmith shop got? Yes, they were tough back then. We have a steam loco up here, went for a ride this summer. It was a lot of fun. 15 mph was what we were travelling at.
Pretty cool to see some of my local history, "Baldwin locomotive works" kicking ass across the country. I live in southeastern PA. My area is rich with railroading and industrial history.👍
That was really cool stuff on and about the trains could you show us more when you get time love to see it it’s very interesting machinery thank you for show us
Might want to check, I believe I read years ago that if the tracks were well built/maintained steam engines could cook. 1890s(?l the record was around 125mph !!
Lol, there's a story of an ice boat racing a train in Wisconsin, around the turn of the century, that was clocked at over 140mph ! LMAO, talk about express delivery! Thanx for the content!
Love these videos!!! Might watch the vandalism next time though. A lot of people will call you out and damn near what to murder you over breaking already broken glass. Lol keep the cool shit coming BRO!
Since you like museums if you ever get a chance come through Nebraska on I 80 and see Pioneer Village in Minden and the Strategic Air Command museum west of Omaha. You won't regret the experience.
@@WelderUpVegas Pioneer village has more "man stuff" than any museum I've ever been to. Building after building of cars, bikes, trucks, tractors, steam engines. Takes a day just to take it all in.
Actually railroad ties work great I lived in a railroad tie cabin from the age of eight to 10 or 11 years old. We were in the middle of building our house that I grew up in. And keep in mind this is northern Minnesota right up by lake vermilion
Grouse video bud, I love how passionate you are about your work, and being a welder myself I share the same interests as yourself and always seem to learn something newevery time I see your show or one of your videos Wether it be a piece of history about how the boys did it all back in the ol days or just some cool way you have of fabricating something on one of your builds, either way I reckon you guys do awesome work, love your videos and can never wait to see what's next on your build list! Any chance of getting a welder up shirt sent to me all the way down here in Australia!?? 😂😂🇦🇺 You guys fuckin rock 🤟🤟
U want to see some bad ass little steam trains come to Heston steam museum in indiana they are amazing little pieces of machinery and they have old steam driven equipment from back in the day
You are right about that Steve anyone that lived in the early years of this nation worked a lot harder for everything. Just washing Landry had to hand wash everything. Nothing went to wast. Bottles were reused.
TRENT DUBOSE lol I agree with OP. I explore places all the time bc I drive trucks and see neat stuff. Breaking stuff is just as bad as gang tagging, only low life undesirable hoodlums do shit like that.
If that was in England,J D Weatherspoons would stick a bar and some near end of life beer and a selection of self aware mongs to serve it and call it a pub, currently your toilets are pristine compared to the afore mentioned pub chain, good look with your rat look motel chain😉
"Lined the walls with asbestos so you should be good" 🤣 Classic Steve ! 😎👊
Very cool, thanks for bringing us along. God Bless. (Ironworker LU-15/Rebar) !!!
Steve.... this is one of the coolest segments I've seen. Keep the old school work ethic alive man!!!

You got me to watch when I seen the rig. I'd make it an every day driver...lol

Thanks for following along!
Love these videos that you explain the Old Ways of doing things. What a workshop! Ahhh, the good Ol' Days!
Your work ethic and persistence is admirable. I dig the idea, keep doing you. Your knowledge, wanting to share it along with being an honest man is very much respected and appreciated 👍
Awesome video! So much history! Thanks for sharing!
You forgot to talk about that vehicle 🚗 on the bed!!,, I caught alittle glimpse of it!!,,”nice”!!
BadAzz 💯💯👊🏼👊🏼 "When Men were Tough" all homemade
Oh yea. The Legendary number 40. I have been to this yard many times and rode both of those trains up to Ruth and back, The number 40 steam whistle is my ring tone on my cell phone. Thank you for sharing, Steve.
I would really love the see more EX Amtrak EMD F40PH locomotives at railroad museums.
Welderup cribs. That old stuff and steam locomotives are awesome can't believe all that stuff is preserved 👍👍👍
That could have been the legit advertisement for the Fyre Festival.
That old train is really cool and the workshop where they would repair and or maintenance the trains cool staff. thanks for sharing.

Very Cool ..! thanks for taking us along , I visited your shop showroom last time I was in Vegas , I enjoyed it ! Thanks...!
Steve. Love that truck! One of the best builds! That would pull my fifth perfect🍺👍
Stopped for the semi thumbnail...stayed for the trains, neat video, thanks.

what an awesome train story! thank you!
Looks like the "Bates Motel" I bet it was a cool place back in it's day! Trains are super cool. And Steve is a "Bad Mo-Fo" for sure.....

Cool place to see trains, Thank you that was interesting
Badass! that bar was creepy Af!!! we need more of this type of stuff!!
Love the craftmanship of the steam engine, snowplow, steam compressor .the big hammer
I'd be perfectly fine seeing them put back into service. That plow is badass, and I would never leave that smithy.
Can you imagine how hot that blacksmith shop got? Yes, they were tough back then.
We have a steam loco up here, went for a ride this summer. It was a lot of fun.
15 mph was what we were travelling at.
This was a cool video of all the old machines
Old plow train was a beast
Pretty cool to see some of my local history, "Baldwin locomotive works" kicking ass across the country. I live in southeastern PA. My area is rich with railroading and industrial history.👍
Awesome thanks love the old steam trains
That looked like alot of fun Steve. 😆...can't wait to see what you get into next.
Great production look forward to more.
Great show book me in for a week, headed out from 🇨🇦. LMAO keep up the great work awesome builds as well 👍👍
Nice one Steve....really enjoy your sense of humour.
The old weld repair on the snow plow was fucking sexy
I don't know if anyone has called it out but if you're a resident evil fan you'll recognize the regenerators sound effects from resident evil 4 2:36
Love your show just subscribed
Will the Nevada State Railroad ever get an EX Amtrak EMD F40PH locomotive some day???
I bet DOT loves seeing this!
I see the future. WelderUp them park.
Great video ! Many thanks.
Man that’s cool! Great history lesson! Iron worker local 92!

That was really cool stuff on and about the trains could you show us more when you get time love to see it it’s very interesting machinery thank you for show us
I've always watched your video since it came up it's awesome brother be free Explorer peace
Might want to check, I believe I read years ago that if the tracks were well built/maintained steam engines could cook. 1890s(?l the record was around 125mph !!
Thanks for the info and thanks for watching.
Lol, there's a story of an ice boat racing a train in Wisconsin, around the turn of the century, that was clocked at over 140mph ! LMAO, talk about express delivery! Thanx for the content!
Just want to drive that bad ass rig
awesome trip thank you for sharing
Love these videos!!! Might watch the vandalism next time though. A lot of people will call you out and damn near what to murder you over breaking already broken glass. Lol keep the cool shit coming BRO!
Ah, my hometown of Ely! I miss that place!
Wicked kool love that shop
Since you like museums if you ever get a chance come through Nebraska on I 80 and see Pioneer Village in Minden and the Strategic Air Command museum west of Omaha. You won't regret the experience.
Thanks for the info! I will do that.

Steve your the greatest😝😝😝😝😝😝
Great video guys 👍
Bad ass brother
Yeah Steve, Loved the Video keep up the Great work. 💪😇 Oh yeah book me a room at your Motel 😁. Steve ✌️
I'm truck driver. I passed this truck in the gorge this morning at about 0700. They were heading to St George
Hey buddy I've had alot of memories in that motel
Awesome video!!!
Like Fear the Loath! Watch rattle snakes pouring out of the walls in the cellar! Not bad at all > interesting
Rattke snakes ain't got anything on some of the snakes in Austrslia (some are considered to be the deadliest in the world).Love the outdoors though.
I saw your truck in Deerlodge MT last week. You guys get around.
Definitely had aircompressors 120 years ago. And those trains would easily do 65mph. Some steam engines that old did well over 100mph.
Yes sir, look at the old mines prior to the 1900's they used air compressors.
Actually railroad ties work great I lived in a railroad tie cabin from the age of eight to 10 or 11 years old. We were in the middle of building our house that I grew up in. And keep in mind this is northern Minnesota right up by lake vermilion
I love places like that abandoned bar/hotel, I always wonder why they was abandoned.

Great vidj ✊🤟😎👍🇬🇧
Dont vandalise. Explore with respect , just like the black smith area.
I agree. Doesn't matter how old or run down it looks. It's history and belongs to somebody. You are just destroying it for others.
That's my kind of Motel 8. 👍✌👍
U want to see some bad ass little steam trains come to Heston steam museum in indiana they are amazing little pieces of machinery and they have old steam driven equipment from back in the day
Awesome video guys 👽✅
I enjoy your UA-cam better than the discovery channel show
You are right about that Steve anyone that lived in the early years of this nation worked a lot harder for everything. Just washing Landry had to hand wash everything. Nothing went to wast. Bottles were reused.
I want to go out there and volunteer just so I could build cool stuff !!!
I wanna stay there.
Brasil. Acompanho seus trabalhos
Loved it keep it up besafe
Cool you are this guy from discovery show Vegas ....🤔🤨
Back in the day of the in house shop all these places had them now everything is outsourced.
funny as f++k . you guys are crazy
Not a bad tour but remember explore don't vandalize and break shit that ain't cool
TRENT DUBOSE lol
I agree with OP. I explore places all the time bc I drive trucks and see neat stuff. Breaking stuff is just as bad as gang tagging, only low life undesirable hoodlums do shit like that.
@@teddybearwhite4957 no one wants STDs from you
around 9:43 that wall rack is of tools and dies use with the power hammer to shape stock
Good video
Iam betting tye side blade would to clean the area next to track not shure
I gotta ask why didnt you make the rear bed on your hauler longer?
Amazing!!!
Definitely a sub...
Steve,how much do you charge to stay at your motel?Thanks in advance.
Cool shit as always!
Ha Steve I love riding the old coal train in Ely will be up hunting deer in a few weeks
Huh 5 minutes in now you're in a town called Ely. Funny I grew up not too far from Ely Minnesota .
best vid so far - funny sh*%!
If that was in England,J D Weatherspoons would stick a bar and some near end of life beer and a selection of self aware mongs to serve it and call it a pub, currently your toilets are pristine compared to the afore mentioned pub chain, good look with your rat look motel chain😉
Cant wait to stay... What's on breakfast menu?
