Thanks so much for this video! I'll be attending this festival this year (2024) for my first time and it's nice to get a feel for the event and especially for the people. I'll be coming out from California.
At one time or another this was someone’s joy a new vehicle. It was cherished, washed, waxed and maybe had sentimental value. But here it sits forgotten forever! Maybe a first date or getting married or something unfortunate event happened. Don’t get me wrong junkyards are neat to explore. If I were in need of some classic I would buy a vehicle from a dry climate like the south west.
Fascinating footage. Western Maryland #6 just got out of a major overhaul (you may have been on its first tourist train since it was returned to service), so there's probably a couple of bugs they're still trying to get out of it. Normally it's assigned to the Bald Knob train because of its huge size, so a Whittaker run is pretty rare. Pretty cool you had Shay #5 pulling you into the station though, it's not every day you see a 118-year old locomotive still operating regularly.
Thanks! Interesting, didn't know she'd had an overhaul. You're right it makes sense there's some bugs to shake out. I was surprised the big locomotive was on this trip but was happy to see her. This was my third trip up here, last being roughly 12 years ago on a railfan trip. Had been waiting for another but looked like it wasn't happening and a friend had this place on his bucket list so we came up. Love these locomotives!
That's just another member of the group I was there with. I tried to minimize the number of times they were on screen but you still seem them throughout.
The government should take an immediate action on this and these unwanted steel things can be sent to the recycling companies for new products.otherwise this scrap yard will destroy the whole earth in many ways.
Thanks for the feedback. I've been considering subscribing to a service with a broader selection of music so I am not confined to RU-vid's free library.
Thanks, really enjoyed this video! A good old fashioned wrecking yard. I used to love walking through these years ago but now they are mostly well organized recycling yards.Still some fun projects left in this one. Cheers.
COOL CONTENT I travel backroads in ohio w.v looking for these and abandoned old cars. I am headed to one in Pennsylvania 30 mins from Pittsburgh next month . I just sub.. KEEP BEING YOU!!
It Sure Is A Junk Yard All Right. With A Bunch Of Disorganized Rusty Stuff All Over The Place, With A Few Cars Added In. Nicer Places To Tour Are Better Organized. And Being In Pennsylvania, It's A Wonder The PA. DEP Hasn't Gotten Down On The Guy For Ground Contamination From Leaking Grease, Oil And Other Hazardous Fluids...
@@FedUpCanuck I Just Checked On-Line, And It Look Like Your Right About The Rise In Scrap Prices. That's Good News For The Folks In Ukraine With All Those Russian Tanks Blown Up And Lying Around...
@@FedUpCanuck no people with skills need parts. All you see is money for your addiction. I worked at a shredder in the 80.s as an intake inspector. I told people those muscle cars were going to be worth a. LOT OF MONEY.
