The fall colours are really magnificent, such a beautiful time of year but then all of the seasons have their own unique look. Thank you for sharing. x
Im watching this 3 years later so no one probably will see my comment but....oh...my...God!!! When you were out on the trestle and panned around i almost though up. I even got dizzy. No amount of money or even tbe man of my dreams could get me to cross that. You are beyond brave.❤❤❤
Man, gotta love places that actually have their fall colors... in Montana, it just decided to turn into winter overnight! Then back to fall, but with all the leaves gone. 😂
Looks like an awesome day with friends. Gorgeous views from up there!!! I would have been very nervous hanging out in the middle for any length of time. Not sure I could even cross. Thank you so much for sharing. I am in awe of your adventure. :)
It's too bad that the kids have to Graffiti everything up. The kids are wrecking the beautiful boulders out on the Susquehanna River between York and Lancaster County PA. They have to take something so aesthetically beautiful and just ruin it!
Is that an officially abandoned line? or is it still held by a railroad? Sometimes they may not be in use currently and can sit for years decaying, but still owned by a company like CSX or Norfolk Southern. That being said you got to be careful they could charge you with trespassing, I doubt they care though, they have more pressing matters.
I think when he and JP explored Greenville/Nay Aug Station (which I think it is on the same side as the abandoned tracks/trail) I think they parked up on Elmhurst Boulevard. Though as he mentioned where they came down through to explore that site is now posted as No Trespassing.
@@577buttfan You're welcome. Just be careful if you're going down that road from the end closer to Scranton as there's some twists and turns on it that are pretty intense. Not to mention I don't think it's seen a repaving in 20 years or longer.
@@coldblue9mm Its a possibility, the railroad that built it may be long gone, but oftentimes those companies' properties are acquired by other railroads. It wouldn't surprise me if CSX or Norfolk southern owns the structure still. Sometimes they hold on to old lines like that one for future plans such as new industries to service along the line, or even to re-route train paths. You'd be surprised but quite a few lines are still out there that trains run on regularly. I've seen rails dated from the early 1900s to the late 1890s that are still used, not as a mainline usually, but do see monthly use. If there is a possibility of customers to service and it makes financial sense, they'll refurbish this line. I live near a railroad bridge in Virginia that is part of a mainline and sees heavy daily traffic that bridge has been in heavy use since 1913.
@@kman-mi7su I'm not saying that bridge could never be used again either. They overbuilt structures back in the day, to last for many, many years. But to say they would be forced to dismantle it is a stretch. And I've seen very old rail still in use on industrial tracks and even yard tracks. But this trestle will never see another train and to think it will is a pipe dream. Once a rail line is torn up in the U.S. it's extremely unlikely someone will rebuild the road bed to service a couple of customers. It would take hundreds of years to cover the expense of putting the line back in. You wouldn't believe the cost of doing so. But I don't know much about railroads. I only worked for a major class one for 40 in the engineering/track side of the business. Have a good day.
@@gregrowe1168 Nah, Not necessarily, while the decking and track may be in bad shape. The stone foundation was built to last and there are trestles as old and similar to this one still in service. I live near a steel one built by American Bridge Company in 1913 rusty as can be and it sees daily traffic of about 15-20 CSX and Amtrak trains a day.
The trestle probably didn't even notice the extra weight of all those people. Thanks for taking us along!!
Stay off my trestle!
JPVideos Can't wait 😊 til you venture out again. The other trestle awaits!
Lol
JPVideos LOL!!!
We'll just have to fight it out...on the trestle
@@thewanderingwoodsman7227 I would totally watch that. Just two guys battling on an old trestle 😂

It really was another fun day. Feeling the history and trying to imagine what that all looked like in its heyday.
Another awesome crossing. With cool people. Looks beautiful across the trestle.

You've nailed crossing that bridge , great job .

This exploration was awesome. I'm thrilled I got to join.
Always nice to see another perspective when the same location is being filmed by a group.

Thanks for the great Pa fall colors and scenery.
Great views and wonderful that you all got together.
I would love to go metal detecting at them old buildings. Thanks for sharing.

Great job crossing! Good shot of the trestle too.
Your getting better at crossing that tressle, and chatting.
Next time when you have to stop look any where But up or Down.
Loved this video 😊well done from shaz in bulwell nottingham uk
I don't think I'd be crossing that tressle! I wouldn't have been able to move! I feel like I'm going to fall off just watching on film!
If there was any video footage of that location in its working years, it's probably in the attic of some old house in Bunker Hill, Dunmore !!!
Love this stuff!
It looks freezing cold

Who has the bungy ropes, plenty of room
Where exactly in Scranton is this? Does it have a street address?
How can I get here?
What the heck is that below the trestle to the right around 13:24 when you panned to the right? More ruins? Or just a natural formation?
Not sure..
Hi Cliff,where is the best spot to park when going to this p;lace i did find it on maps?

@@CheapestGamer thanks man!!
I was worried 😩 about the guy with the blue van. Wouldn't the railroad discourage cars 🚗 from driving back there?

@@samanthab1923 some times we have to take risk to earn our reward😜👍
Have you seen videos of the glass break bridge in China?
I have seen those
It is not abandoned. It is just not being used at the moment. If it was abnadoned they would be forced to dismantle it. They pay taxes on it.
carlhalvorson Where did you come up with that thought? There’s abandoned trestles all over. How are they gonna tax a company that no longer exists?

That trestle would collapse under the weight of a train now. No way a train ever crosses it again.

Is that tressel by I380?
Yeah. You can see the highway and rock cut in Dunmore during part of the video.
yes it is, there is another one by I380 as well, but that one is in much worse condition.
