@BoostedB16A90 Get lucky :-) Back in the mid 90's i lived in a small town and would go watch the train as it stopped to offload cargo at one of the local factories. The engineer noticed i was there all the time watching, and one day asked if i would like a ride a few miles or so down the tracks to his next stop. If that fails there is a R.R. museum in California in which you can pay to operate a locomotive for an hour (under supervision of course). I did that as well.

@BlackWolfessUSCM I meant they charge by the hour. We actually paid for three hrs operating time in it. But that's awesome you get to work on a U-boat! Most of us poor schmucks aren't that lucky. The closest to that i ever got is taking a tour of the U.S.S Blueback in Portland, which was cool because the man giving the tour was one of the former crew of it.

In 2007 I rode Amtrak from K-falls to Seattle. We arrived late,of course but an enjoyable trip. My father and grandfather worked for the U.P. so I rode the train for free often in the 50s & 60s. This trip brought back a lot of old memories. Today I carry a 1911 Hamilton 992 pocket watch. Any connection to my roots?

Great video. I grew up in Southern Oregon/Rogue Valley. Was sad to see UP not re-invest in the line from Weed to Eugene thru the Rogue Valley, but good to see activity still nearby in K Falls. I'd love to do a short ride like this.

Shipmate I couldn't believe how far real estate prices fell during the recession, and see that they are climbing back up again and things really aren't that much better. I remember the influx of California's coming up and driving real estate prices up artificially. I will never move back there again.

Shipmate For sure, totally agree. I still stop in Gold Hill and see my best friends mom whenever I pass through. He died from injuries sustained in a work accident, anyway, she bought a nice place there for not a whole lot. My family owned a few rentals when I was growing up and I was amazed how fast they went when they were listed. We used to run around up in the hills north of G.P. looking for mines etc. I jumped off of that train trestle in Gold Hill during high school on a bet. I climbed to the top and went for it. I can't believe the shit we used to do. One guy that jumped off of that trestle, actually landed on a dead cow that was floating down the river and became paralyzed. I never jumped off of it again but did the spillway and the bridges at Applegate Lake and near Carberry Creek as you head into Cook and Green back up there. My uncle still has a place north of Ruch still. I nearly bought my grandmothers place on Jville hwy, but family politics ruined that.

"Power braking...will be the way to go..." With 10 years as an engineer on UP's competitor railway, pulling out of yard in the method you mentioned is a horrible practice. Looking at the track chart for Klamath Falls, the grade is an ascending 1% grade leaving the yard, that is why the train is not just floating out of the yard. Putting a minimum set on this train with it's 63 empties would pretty much stop it right here, or burn a hell of a lot more diesel to keep it moving.

Good video - shame the operator kept adjusting the engine governor every 20 seconds - the train is 5300 feet long which is just over a mile! constant engine speed adjustments are meaningless with that sheer tonnage. Anyways it was a god intro and the following videos were great also - not a criticism at you but a word to the not so wise operator
