In 2012 when visiting Canada with 3 friends, we drove this road to the bridge, visited the cemetary in the wood, I picked a spike along the tracks and painted it in silver paint as a CP memory. I have a picture of the stone with the childrens names on it.
Another cracking video and you got to fly the drone which gives a better perspective of the whole area. Shame to see the ruins of Donald, but that is what happens when the place relies on the railway and the railway then moves on to another place.
Wow! Tony, And a great tribute, to the old timer railroaders, at Donald, back in those days. I remember flying a float plane here 35 years back. These aerial views, shows Donald, Excellent and is the distinct point, at where the trains start the long climb, into the Rogers pass. Beautiful. The Columbia river water level is terrifyingly high, up against the railway bridge pilings. Eye bugging video Tony. 👍 Thank you very much!
Peter, you've flown there now thats interesting to know. would love to hear the stories you have. where there more people living there at that time still?
I remember working the Donald switcher from Golden to Donald lifting and setting off cars at the Mountain Mineral spur at Willamette and lifting and setting off chip cars and lumber cars at Donald.
@@inboundbryguy Hi Brian yes i am well and actually glad i am no longer on virtual...I feel I never did anything wrong, but it is what it is and I am on a different coarse. I do hope you are well along with your family. I follow Tony so you may see me here.
Beautiful work, super production, unforgettable ride, difficult to describe with words. Congratulations and much health to you friend Tony V. From Brazil 🇧🇷🥇❤🇨🇦
Boy does this bring back good old memories, absolutely beautiful Tony. The Columbia River Bridge, and an EB on a meet with a WB on the double track perfect. Nicely done
Great videos and drone footage, Tony! Excellent! I love watching just for the scenery. Minor quibble: too many spelling mistakes - proofread more. Cheers and best wishes. NA
Really enjoying this series Tony! You should do more voice overs, the ones in your Roger's Pass video added a lot to the production. The Kicking Horse is the Mountain Sub, and Roger's Pass is the Lagan Sub? Just so I have it straight. :)

Thanks, Ya, spelling was never my strong point Part of the reason why I now voice over my videos now.

Thanks Ben, I am thinking that is the direction I will go with some of the rest of them.
Nice that's good friend :)
