    Merry Christmas everyone from beautiful wife, crazy neighbor, and I! I was editing and editing and then finally said GOOD ENOUGH or else it's going to be an after Christmas video. All the best to you and your families, and thanks so much for making this a great year for us. I was technically allowed to be camping in this lot, but there was the usual drama, the property owner wasn't even sure what the rail police would do if we were camped out there.
    Cheers and Hunker Down my friends!!!

      I can literally pinpoint the exact location he’s camping… at the time I was working on those exact rail lines. I can name several of the business surrounding ding his camp site. Just because something is unlikely doesn’t mean it’s not true…. Believe what you want but idgaf.

    I made a very similar video but I camped by the railroad in the country. I was also on private property with permission next to the tracks. The railroad will not come off their property to bother you. You had nothing to be worried about. I make railroad videos all the time. The only time the railroad cares is if you are on their property or if you follow them around with a camera on them but they cannot say anything to you if you are not on their property.

I can guarantee whatever the naysayers have said to you, any of us could find many things about them that are time-wasters.

    Former Union Pacific Railroad worker here.
    The “Red Zone” is 3 feet away from the tracks. That’s the danger zone. I’ve seen things come off trains from further away that can destroy whatever is in the way. This is very dangerous, please stay as far away from the tracks as possible. Cars can come unhitched and roll silently, cables can come loose and hit and wrap around things out to 8 feet or more. I’ve seen it.
    Please be safe. Trains look slow and lumbering, but they have mass and can’t stop like you would think.

    Not a waste of time at all....I am in Australia, and have been enjoying your vlogs. I have gotten quite a few little extra camping tips and ideas from watching your shows. You introduced me to the ice tents, I had never seen these before. I bought one (just a moderate priced version) through Ebay...I love it. Quick up and down, nice and warm, simple to use, and I can manage it by myself - I am a 69 year old woman. I have also increased my confidence to use my buddy heater safely and effectively. So thanks so much for all the things you try out and share with us.

    Many years ago my girlfriend and I were traveling at night through Wyoming in my pickup-camper. It got late so we pulled off the road and we went to sleep in the camper. At around midnight it sounded like a train was about to barrel through the truck. That's when we realized that we were only about 20 feet from a railroad. Scared the crap out of us.

    It’s a stealth camping with Steve Christmas special! I used to live in a house by some old railroad tracks. The trains would go by about once a week. It took some time to get used to, but after about a couple of month it didn’t wake me up any longer. I can wait to see where you camp next. Also a high vis safety vest and the attitude that you belong there or just doing your job will trick a lot of people in to thinking you are supposed to be there.
