Tennessee Pass - Part 33 - Railroad - Rail Cart - The Rocket Scientist

Come ride with us as we explore the old abandon "Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad", (DRWG) while we cross the Continental Divide. In this series of videos (this is part 33 of 36 parts), you will see ten of us with 4 homemade rail carts, 2 with motors, 1 with a motor and peddle power combined, and 1 with peddle power only (which we towed with another rail cart when needed) tackling the 10,000 plus foot altitude in the Colorado High Mountains. During this adventure you will see us traveling through tunnels, crossing trestles and going under arch bridges. You will see rockslides, streams, rivers, ponds and waterfalls. We will also be passing through old, abandoned Copper Mining operations, and sidings. There will be many towering mountains, valleys, meadows, woods, open fields, huge pastures and small towns in the middle of nowhere. And don't forget the wildlife. Please Like, Share and Subscribe! Thanks for Watching!

Not related to this video but have you ever considered going to ride whatever is left of the Northwestern Pacific RR in CA? The line is in ROUGH shape... but parts may be rideable especially through the spectacular Eel river canyon. It would be wonderful to get whatever is left of it documented before it's turned into a trail sometime in the next few years.

I'll have to go up there and check it out. Thanks!

Who wants to ride backwards? i'd rather see where i'm going rather than where i've been.

[@therocketscientist0000]

It's a different perspective.

Nice scenery. Not a real fan of the backwards view ... would rather see forwards.

Other videos in this series face forward.
