  • Big trains in breathtaking mountain scenery!
    Originally released on DVD in 2016, follow Union Pacific trains over the former SP main line from Redding, California to Klamath Falls, Oregon.
    Watch trains crossing the massive Redding Trestle and winding through the Sacramento River Canyon to Dunsmuir. At this point, the heavy mountain grade begins as trains climb around the base of Mt Shasta.
    This program is available on DVD, HD Blu-ray, and Vimeo on Demand by visiting 7ideaproductions.com.

      Used to live on Garden and go to Mills. Loved seeing the trains as a kid. Hopefully (as a 90s kid) there is some saving grace for Klamath. Such a unique place to grow up. I remember when the snowflake parade was damn near every citizen around. The tulelake fair… etc. aye the good ol days!

    This was fantastic. My father's best friend lived in Mount Shasta City, so I was able to see and hear the Southern Pacific in the 60's and 70's. I still have fond memories of hearing the whine of trains climbing out of the Sacramento river valley at night! This was a beautiful reminder of one of my favorite areas. I still check in on the live Dunsmuir station depo cam every day.

Shasta. I was really surprised when I got to the Mt. Hebron part as the Land Cruiser that passed over the tracks belongs to our daughter! Well, you must know that we have shared with a lot of our friends. Thank you so much for making such wonderful, scenic videos.

    Your videos are top shelf. Done in HD with stunning scenery. The narration throughout the video is so refreshing to hear. I also like the maps at the beginning of the videos as they explain the sub(s) that are depicted along withe the stations along the line. My favorite videos are this one and the two parter from Eugene to Klamath Falls. Mountain railroading at it's finest. I found "East to Spokane" a bit boring. Other than that superb stuff. Keep em coming.

  • @dr.agupta
    @dr.agupta 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Excellent! Sometimes, delays on Amtrak divulge the most beautiful portions of the journey which would otherwise be lost in darkness, if on schedule.
    Once Empire Builder started pretty late from Seattle, somewhere at 8 pm or so, by the time we woke up, the train was passing through the Rockies of eastern Washington and Idaho, and we were so fortunate to witness Glacier National Park in Western Montana in the bright midday sun. That day I felt, why didn't the Amtrak keep this as the right schedule lol.. leaving at night also avoids unnecessary hotel bills in Seattle. Meaning, you can arrive previous evening on Coast Starlight or Empire Builder, rest in hotel, explore Seattle all day till late evening, grab nice dinner and catch east-bound Empire Builder at night. I wish this comes true one another time in future.

    Thank you, this is a fantastic video! I’ve missed seeing a good stretch of this route when on the Coast Starlight, because it’s dark when it passes through some of this section. It’s nice to see it in daylight!

    • @7ideaproductions
      @7ideaproductions  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thank you.
      In response to your comment on DPU's I think it depends on the territory, train makeup, logistics, etc. UP runs a lot of mid-train DPUs on other parts of their system, but it is not very common on the Shasta Line. Today even rear-end DPU's are not often seen (on the Shasta) since UP went back to using manned helpers some years ago on the Cascade Sub in Oregon.

      I didn't know that about the Redding Turn. Haven't been down there for a while.
      DP's were replaced with manned helpers at Oakridge some years ago. I guess UP got tired of dragging them all the way to Roseville then sending them back to Eugene. Lot of extra miles on those units.
