Man Shoe…your knowledge of where a train is going, where it’s going to stop and what it’s carrying just by looking at it is really astounding…safe and happy travels!!
Prime example: with all due respect how many other train riders would’ve had the savvy to pass up an open boxcar right in front of them because they knew it was on a ‘milk train’ that stopped in every town?
The sound of a train sounds soothing. As a child me and my friends would play in the train yard then camp under the train bridge. My mom said her uncle use to hop a train out to Idaho to work on farms and they wouldn't see him again for many months.. Hobo you are one of the last remaining old time hobo legends...be safe.
Go to the Dalton, GA old freight depot at the diamond and wait for a southbound CSX train pulling tank cars. There is nothing soothing about the way those wheels squeel after crossing over the NS rails and bends parallel to be them. It's so loud and so piercing that it feels like they are slicing your brain in half.
@@Rick-wb8gt That would work. But then you would miss the soothing katuk katuk ..... katuk katuk ..... katuk katuk ... katuk katuk ... as all of the non-tank cars roll across c the diamond. It's primarily loaded tank cars that do all the squealing.
I bailed right there in Cheyenne by that old RV a year or two ago. It's interesting how much paint has been added to it since then. Thanks for the video!
Mad respect to the engineer who was a true friend to hobo shoestring The world needs more people like you sir with humanity we hear way too often “ just doing my job just following orders” .. you know mark would never harm or allow anybody to harm , damage or interfere with anything related to the train or crew . We meed more people with humanity 🇺🇸🙏🏻✌🏻
@@dknowles60 pretty much, if you get hurt or killed riding in one of their box cars or something there's potential for lawsuits and shit. They aren't being mean, they're protecting their jobs.
Your footage of the American Landscape mesmerizes me. It is so beautiful to see how much land our nation has that isn't disturbed by a metropolitan city, airport, or ugly suburban neighborhood. Truly a rare and welcome sight for sore eyes. Also, your riding in trains the old fashioned way satisfies this locomotive fan.
@@Whoflungpouu it probably depends. Some of the bulls actually watch videos like these looking for the insider information. They make it a challenge to find people who post videos.
U are a dying breed... True hobo train style.. my respects to u, Sir... I enjoy ur videos and learn something new everytime.. thank u for the knowledge 😊
Those Wyoming skies had to be the clearest….and bluest. So many folks appreciate your unique storytelling…. along with that special drawl. Most of all … many of us like the way you make us “notice” things around you in a way that harkens back to our childhood. These videos are precious and we sure don’t take them for granted. All the best HS 🇨🇦
When living in Raytown MO. In my teens & preteens we had a track not 100 yards away . A train would run from 9:30 pm and another at 10:30 pm and they would run for at least 20m to 30 minutes, if I did not fall asleep during the 9:30 run I’d have to wait till the 10:30 train. Made for a miserable school day if I missed the early train. Great vids Shoestring! Many help with my naps at 65 yo. Smiles
I drove on that part of I-80 in this video in May of 2023 and there were still some patches of snow alongside the interstate from last year's winter snowstorms in the area. It was quite amazing to see.
This is shot and edited better than most videos on TH-cam. Nice long shots that are well-composed and steady; No inane music. Sparse but complete narration. Great narrative that shows us a side of the country that we never see. I added it to my favorites so I can come back to it whenever I want to go out west for a minute or 30.
I just wanna say thank you shoestring... I sit in my old lazy boy and throw back a few beers and literally fall a sleep to the lulling of your train rides. Very relaxing.
Hope your doing fine after your illness/surgery shoestring.I stumbled across your channel a couple of months ago and set about watching all your back catalogue of vlogs.Man it's interesting stuff with your adventures on the rails,I hope the coming winters kind to you and look forward to all the content to come....all the very best from the UK.
H8 Shoestring. My husband and I found your videos a few days back. Been watching them almost 24/7 every since. My husband is like you, a dieing breed. Only he was a trucker for 35 years. Had to retire when he fell on a load and broke his neck and back. Thank you for sharing. Be safe and warm.
Wow shoestring the adventures u been on!!Thanks to you,I've seen places I never would have seen before,thank u so much!! I've never seen so much wide open space ever!! I'm in one of the five boroughs,and every inch is filled up with something!! Glad ur out having fun traveling,stay safe,try to keep warm,and as always godspeed
Mark,So glad to see you are feeling good and back on the road the new videos have been great!! Also love my “SHOESTRING “ Plaque it is displayed with my collectibles.Stay safe and Thanks.
Sometimes it seems like Shoestring has more knowledge about the rail system in America than most rail workers. I always learn a thing or two when watching his videos.
Your videos encompass a lot of different subject matter I find very interesting. Your insights into the freight train is fascinating , as is the graffiti art and scenic beauty! Thank you!
I love how you point out the unnecessary littering issues. I'm homeless and create content about my unhoused journey -- I often point out the importance of "leaving no footprint" , picking up litter and rolling up campsite in a respectable manner. Thanks for all you do. You inspired me to create my own. "Fair Winds and Following Seas" as we like to say here in Portland Maine 🦞👍
Great video and tutorial of your train ride out West! That was definitely a MASSIVE TRAIN @14k feet!!! And from what I could see it definitely had a lot of CENTERBEAM cars too! Glad to see you back riding the rails again bcuz it seems like its been forever for us so I know it has been for you! Thanks again for sharing your videos with us along with your PRICELESS time and effort! Be safe and happy travels! Cheers from Delmar, Delaware.
Now that you are famous, especially with the railroad community, it makes hiding yourself a little harder but makes the workers a little easier on you. You are awesome Shoestring. Your voice is back! You are doing what you love. But take it easy on yourself! God bless you my friend.
Just love your videos, sure am happy you're ridin again. Been thru Rollins on the goat trail when I drove semi. I love Wy & those wide open spaces. Only half way thru this video, will catch you later. Love ya Shoe- stay safe & warm 🥰🚂🥰🙏
Shoestring sounds just like my neighbor we lost 10 years ago, took a Amtrak from Chicago to Sacramento so I'm also a huge fan thanks for sharing the rides!
Hey ShoeString ..... glad to see you back on the rails ,doing what you love to do !!! We all love seeing you doing your thing ! Thanks for a great video, you sure have a ton of railroad info to share,cand we all appreciate your doing just that ...... stay safe!!!
Hi, Thanks for a great video. Although I live in the UK, I fell in love with Wyoming through the books by Annie Proulx. Your video brought it home to me - thanks!
So happy to see you back on the rails . The place you seem to be the happiest it's been a tuff year for you health wise and such. Just glad to see in the place you want to be
Wow has your channel grown buddy! 👍💯 Good, if anyone deserves it, YOU DO, your such a nice guy, & so full of wisdom, we all can listen to you rattle on for hours!! 😂
You've surpassed Stobe the hobo as far as popularity. Makes sense because of how many years of experience you have. Crazy how people know who you are all the time now 😂 Hobo Shoestring is a Legend!
I’ve been consumed by work lately, so I haven’t had the time or energy to watch TH-cam in my spare time, but tonight, when I got home early, I pulled up TH-cam and this came up in my feed. You were on my mind during your surgery and in the early days of recovery, so I’m glad to see you back, riding the rails, ol’ bud!
You are very lucky to find a boxcar these days. The switching yards are right next to my shop. I see open gondolas, tankers,auto haulers,grain cars, and container haulers. You have a good eye for the right train from your experience. Happy rails to you.
Glad to see you going to Green River. I grew up there so it's great to see it again. Incidentally, that spot at the end where you were taking panorama shots--pretty close to where George from JOTC hopped off too-- a couple of those rocks are called Kissing Rocks. Driving I-80 east right there you can look up and see the rocks slowly appear to come together and "kiss." We once saw some rattlesnakes while hiking around there, too. Keep an eye out! 🍀🚂
One thing u can count on in Wyoming is wind been across I 80 several times always see the trains and wonder who is riding glad to see you getting healthy and back in your happy place 👍ride on
Hey hope your feeling better. Still need to take it easy tho. Enjoy watching your videos. Great knowledge as well. Amazing an never a bored moment. Thanks!!!
Its always windy in the Wyoming area , especially up and down I- 25 and parts of I-80 you know that better than anyone Shoe ! Btw , you look great !! Keep on keepin' on my Brother 👍
Your knowledge of Trains and where they are going is great! To bad you could not put that into being a dispatcher! Anything but a HOBO! Rough life but love your trips! God Bless Brother
I live in a town with plenty of trains and tracks due to nearby chemical plants. While waiting for passing trains, I now examine each passing car to see if it would be a good place to hop and ride. Thanks Shoe. lol
Shoestring I found your channel a few days ago, thank you for sharing your knowledge and travels with us man, you are truly salt of the earth! Thank you sir , never change 🙏 P.s.safe traveling...
ChainsawN&W1218, It's always a pleasure to watch Your videos,relaxing and action packed full of adventure, bet You sleep good on a boxcar, I was hoping when You said it was starting to rain might get to hear You riding with it pouring down on the roof,stay safe and be careful riding the rails Man!👍🛤
I drive an 18 wheeler throughout the country, you have answered a lot of questions I have always had about trains, I am a fan of what you do God bless you brother. Do you have a place where people can support you financially???
Safe travels ShoeString … it’s amazing how those cows will come when called … done it a many times when I had cows but the fun ended when I lost my brother and friend a few years back so I sold every one them
You need a radio scanner “ Like some of the “ Foamers / people who love watching trains “ As we call them in Canada lol Retired from Cp 2 years ago.. still love taking pictures of trains ! Love your channel .. stay safe !!
Shoestring you've inspired so many people and strangely doing something illegal your leaving this world in a better spot. Much love and safe travels mi amigo.
Don't be messing with them cows, Shoestring. 😁 So glad to see you back out on the rails after how this year started for ya. Keep 'em coming! We'll keep watching! Stay safe, brother!
Godspeed Mr. Nichols, We Thank you for all you gave, And All you have given.. R.I.P Shoestring... ✌
Man Shoe…your knowledge of where a train is going, where it’s going to stop and what it’s carrying just by looking at it is really astounding…safe and happy travels!!
He's knows more that the people who work for the railroad .its unreal
Prime example: with all due respect how many other train riders would’ve had the savvy to pass up an open boxcar right in front of them because they knew it was on a ‘milk train’ that stopped in every town?
Yah he's has a sick sense about everything railroad he's smart as hell
for real. years and years of riding
It truly is! Have a great day.
Still hard to believe Shoestring has ‘gone west’ .... his adventures will be missed.
So happy you are still riding sir! This youtube channel is a national treasure
Word
❤
Fall in Wyoming.u can almost feel the isolation,the air& the freedom.
And he is STILL riding.. on that Westbound! 🙏
The sound of a train sounds soothing. As a child me and my friends would play in the train yard then camp under the train bridge.

Thanks for sharing your experiences brother. Your simple life and big heart is a blessing to everyone you come across.
Your footage of the American Landscape mesmerizes me. It is so beautiful to see how much land our nation has that isn't disturbed by a metropolitan city, airport, or ugly suburban neighborhood. Truly a rare and welcome sight for sore eyes. Also, your riding in trains the old fashioned way satisfies this locomotive fan.
Let’s face it, dude, you’re a celebrity. It seems most railroad workers you encounter nowadays are just thrilled to meet you.
Yeah I don't even think the bull would do anything except ask for his autograph lol
Yep I used to do the same thing he's doing for almost 30 years but I gave it up cuz I almost got married and it was getting too dangerous
@@Whoflungpouu it probably depends. Some of the bulls actually watch videos like these looking for the insider information. They make it a challenge to find people who post videos.
You're right I wanna meet him and i am a bull.
Even the cows recognise him!!
You are a genuine expression of absolute freedom in America.
Coming from a railroader, your knowledge is quite astounding. Maybe I'll see ya some time passing through green river, wy.

I miss travelling out through the western US.
Pretty cool scenery but the Route the train takes from Cheyenne over to Rock Springs is definitely one of the least scenic stretches in Wyoming.
@@joelbittner8791 true, but it’s a nice change of pace from the forests, rivers, and lakes that surround me currently.

I like when you were hollerin' at the cows Shoestring!
Lol cows rushed home to eat and nothing! Laughed my ass off
Rancher wondering wtf with my cows?
@@MT-xl8jy I was thinking that too, but you know the rancher fed them anyhow. He is just thinking "why did they come in so early"?
