Loved the old blast furnace ruins! Nice arches & brick work. Great to see RJ & other friends join you in this adventure! Very fun seeing Thomas The Tank make a special appearance, too! Awesome photo montage & impressive train tunnel! Looks like you had fun! Thanks for bringing us along!!😊💙💙
Hey JP, Post 10 gave you a very nice mention in his vlog channel Q&A the other day. He really likes your videos. Myself, being a NEPA guy, I never got the chance to explore lots of the sites you visit. Thanks for another great one.
Great find JPV it's nice to see a part of history What upsets me it to see all the graffiti people have no respect what so ever for history. TY so much for all that you do. I wish more could be done to preserve and protect hidden parts of history for educational purposes.
The old stone and brick furnace was awesome to see! I Love the bridges and the tunnels and the railroad tracks 🙂 So yes, loved this video 👍 Thanks again
Wow, so amazing and lots of interesting history! Hard to choose a favorite. Finding the old box car was so cool and the old picture of the roundhouse is wonderful, seeing the site where it stood is easy to imagine when it was actually there, and we got to see a train too! That mile long bridge is awesome, love the photo you took of it! The old furnace ruins with the beautiful brickwork and stonework are so incredible, the work that was put into it is unbelievable! The tunnel also has beautiful construction, it would have been fascinating to watch either one of them being built! You guys sure had some fun with Thomas the Train! 😂I agree with you that bonus finds are sometimes the best finds! Wonderful exploration JP and a great video! Thank you!
J, you never cease to amaze me. All of the places you explore are pretty dang cool. 100% of the time. Even the google map busts are cool because of the stuff along thè way. Thanks for always bringing us a
Hi JP the blast furnace was a great find along with its history it was cool to see the tunnel carved out was great to explore it was a good day had by all I enjoyed every minute thank you for all that you do and for Matt inviting me to hang out with great friends 😎
I liked the furnace because there was signage there to explain what went on and old pictures of the area. The tunnel was neat too. I hope to bike that this fall. Thanks for all your videos and for taking us along. There are so many places I can't get to anymore, so thanks for showing us around.
Great video! Really interesting and historic. Love the brick and rock, beautiful work. Enjoy seeing you all together and getting to meet Thomas the Train engine! ❤️🥰😅
Now that was a great find, and explore too, a nice afternoon with friends and amusing pictures, and to think that I couldn't get higher than an D in social studies, SMH now I love history
That’s cool that Nick brought you down to Columbia for that adventure. The road next the rail trail where the truck trailers are actually goes over the old turntable pit of the roundhouse, the stub ended track was the old north end yard lead that came off of the original mainline outside of the tunnel. Thanks for sharing this video, growing up in the area and seeing this brought back some great memories.
Aw, you found Thomas!🥰 i would read a Thomas story from the complete Thomas series written by Rev. Awdrey to our boys every night when they were little. So fun you found him hanging out by the tracks lol! That furnace had amazing brickwork. That was a big beauty!
Really loved this explore of the old furnace ( wonderful brick and stonework !) and the rail trail tunnel ..History was always my very favorite subject in school and still love it .That may be why I enjoy your adventures so much ..lots of history and always learning something . 👍💙Great seeing the other guys with ya ...glad Thomas kept RJ entertained and out of trouble .....😂
Hi JP, and thanks for another great adventure...you would absolutely love the Union Pacific RR Museum here in Omaha...it is really cool, especially at Christmas time they put a tree up in the old ticket area over 30ft high...it's Awesome! Plus an entire old train you can walk thru it and see the old sleeper cars and everything. Pretty cool!!!
I loved the architecture of the blast furnace and how cool it looked being reclaimed by nature. Gives it a sense of mystery. The Point Rock Tunnel was pretty amazing as well. I could only imagine what it would have sounded like inside the tunnel with two steam locomotives passing side by side. It surely would have been an awesome sight and sound. Love the video. Always a fan of anything train or nature related. Will be looking forward to seeing you in the next video. Until then stay safe and God bless. Steve in Oklahoma
Cool! Loved the tunnel. This was a fantastic video. 🤗. Chris loved Tomas The Train when he was a kid lol. Later on he learned that Mr. Conductor was the great comedian George Carlin, which confused him😅. 🤗
I grew up in Columbia n was thrilled to see my home town in one of ur many videos I watch. Hope to see more videos from Columbia cause it is deep in rich history. I enjoyed this very Mich n will b watching case u do more ❤
This is one of your coolest railroad videos, they're all neat, the old dam ones are cool as well. I used to travel like you, but couldn't wait to retire so I could travel full time. I recently retired, now my health is too poor to do much walking or exploring, so I join you.😀
In the little Burrow of Duncannon, PA there is a rail bridge that goes over the river... Quite long and impressive. Also in Duncannon is the old train station now a business of some sorts. Maybe check out the Burrow of Duncannon sometime? Cheers :)
Bonus finds are sometimes the best finds. Which spot did you like better?
Definitely the old furnace ruins
I loved the old blast furnace ...beautiful structure !

Story time: My Grandfather born in 1882 help build a lot of tunnels like this one. Nice to see, not only history..., but my granddad's work. Enjoyed!
I loved both, the furnace wins out. It was really cool!! Good to see yours and R.J’.’s antics again!! Thanks for taking us along!! 💖💙💖💙💖💙

Graffiti, although sad to see at places like this, seems to be the norm now a days.
Love the old ruins and the tunnel!!!!
Awesome video JP 👍 that tunnel is really amazing.

Great video as always JP!
Excellent adventure great video thanks Jay and RJ and Nick
Now that was a great find, and explore too, a nice afternoon with friends and amusing pictures, and to think that I couldn't get higher than an D in social studies, SMH now I love history
I wish I loved history as much as I do now when I was in school.
Good stuff. I was pretty sure that was the furnace I thought it was.
That’s cool that Nick brought you down to Columbia for that adventure.

Thomas was a staple in many young kids lives. Thankfully this one got rescued and saved from the scrap yard 😁
I love the brick and rock configurations! Very pretty!
Always fascinating how they construct these places from so long ago.
as usual another great find and the video is fantastic, love seeing you and RJ together again :) lol Thomas tank is so cute

Wish I enjoyed history in school as much as I do now. And yes, he was quite amused with Thomas.

The sound would be deafening and the plumes of smoke exiting the tunnel would be quite the sight.
I love to collect slag - there must have been some in that area.
You guys cracked me up with that Thomas the train at the end. Like little kids again. I love it!
🚂😅
Really great video. I like seeing places like this.
Cool! Loved the tunnel. This was a fantastic video. 🤗. Chris loved Tomas The Train when he was a kid lol. Later on he learned that Mr. Conductor was the great comedian George Carlin, which confused him😅. 🤗
Haha, yes. Mr conductor was always a familiar voice for me.
We just recently learned that William H. Macy is the voice of Curious George.
Thought I'd add that newfound discovery to this comment ha ha 😄
I grew up in Columbia n was thrilled to see my home town in one of ur many videos I watch. Hope to see more videos from Columbia cause it is deep in rich history. I enjoyed this very Mich n will b watching case u do more ❤
I'll be back at some point to see more of the area.
What a cool find! Thanks for sharing! 😎

Watched the video as my dad was a lineman for the railroad in montana.very interesting history.

another fantastic video really like the furnace, you guys were having way to much fun with that train ...take care.
Doesn't take much to entertain us
You are a gem!
Thanks for awesome video
Amazing!
Perkasie PA has a tunnel that has a gentle sweeping curve to it. It’s a former Reading Company line now in use by the East Penn Railroad.
Nice. Thanks for sharing.
lce forms in the winter under the tunnel.
Central California watching
If you walked further you would of came across hand stacked walls and other stone building foundations.
I'll be returning. Thanks for the info
Why do people feel the need to deface historical sites with graffiti? No respect for the people who built these amazing structures. Sad.
