Chasing Trains around Mt. Shasta (4K) | The Black Butte Sub | May 2024 

There's everything here. The lovely Mt Shasta, a couple of Amtrak trains, a bunch of UP freights, cool horseshoe curves and an amazing viaduct. The locations are all beautiful, especially with the nice springs colors. These long movies are really good, I always enjoy them a lot. Thanks a million for your effort Dan. Your job is always much appreciated.

Once again, setting the bar higher than any videographer has dared to go. Brute force and graceful, scenic beauty together @16:00 is the epitome of railroading. Thank you again for your creative efforts. 🤘

Definitely worth a super thanks for this stunner. I love it all, of course, but like you, a favorite part is the sunset footage. It’s all so magical.

Beautiful !!

Hallo Dan, ich muss heute mal in meiner Muttersprache schreiben. Ich bin so dankbar für diese schönen Videos. Ich werde niemals die Möglichkeit bekommen, dieses große Land zu besuchen, aber ich bin immer wieder begeistert diese schönen Drohnenbilder zu sehen. Für mich ist es wie ein großes Spiel auf einer Eisenbahnplatte. Vielen Dank dafür. Grüße von Micha aus Dresden / Deutschland

The State of Jefferson has never looked better!!!

Great work! Definitely one of, if not the best you've done.🙂

Another marvelous production. Loved the ground-level shot at Grass Lake with the train reflecting in the water. I watched another RU-vidr’s drone footage and it really showed how much BETTER your drone flying is when compared to others. Amtrak should buy those shots from the last sequence-amazing! Thanks for sharing these!

Where to begin??!! You teased us with the preliminary short for this production, and you have totally proved that it was a really "special" production not just for you but for all of us. Yes, timing is everything to have the right light, train spot, and scenery, and you accomplished all of that. I am humbled how your work continues to mature in content because your prior work was so well done also. There are so many pictures in this production that belong on many train calendars as well as other high value locations in UP corporate offices! Once again, well done and totally appreciated.

It's criminal you don't have more subscribers. Obviously, it's a labor of love.

Thanks! Great job of capturing the beauty and amazing engineering of the line. The guys who surveyed and built that line rode in on horseback and didn't have aerial views. You have to say they did a pretty good job.

Shasta and Dan AT THE SAME TIME Dude !!

เป็นวิดีโอที่สุดยอดมากครัย..

We've been waiting for this one!!! Can't wait to watch it this evening with popcorn! 😊😎

Howdy Dan! I have been a fan of yours for about 2 years now. Thank you for all of the fine videos. The perspective that you give with your drones on railroading is outstanding! I am asking you, if it would be possible for you to cover the BNSF from Wenatchee, up the Wenatchee River and through the Stevens Pass tunnel. This Tunnel is 7.8 miles long and is the longest tunnel in North America. I think it would be a fantastic Video! Sincerely, Dave W. Spokane WA

This video was worth the wait, Dan! The trains that travel the Union Pacific's Black Butte Subdivision have a magnificent backdrop in the form of Mt. Shasta. Thank you for taking the time to capture the trains and the scenery that combine to make up this video. I enjoyed watching the video. (29 June 2024 at 2206)

Thanks for another great video. I have really enjoyed the videos around Mt Shasta as I grew up there and frequented many of the locations in the films. I recently took some video of my own at sawmill curve when I stopped there on a trip to Red Bluff CA. There is a cut at the north end of the curve where you can sit on the bank and be pretty close to the train as it goes by.

Thanks!

You are the best.

Awesome. Thanks!

Spectacular! While I agree the Chargers take some getting used to, I’ve never been a fan of the GE Genesis.

Absolutely wonderful video. Spectacular views and just enough editing and voiceover to know what’s going on. Glad I subscribed along time ago. Excellent job.

Vast....Awesomeness.....sums it up! 35:30 Leader number 2541 Union Pacific ES44AC. Trailing units look to be...7397/AC45CCET & 6861/AC44CW. 46:33 U.P. 3012/SD70Ace leading the way, under the Big Shasta'! With U.P. - GE's 8258/6480 & 6940 trailing her.

I agree with you on the Charger locomotive, I think the new Progressive Rail EMD F125 looks better. Of course, I always enjoy your work!

I once found a paper airplane made from a locomotive checklist below the Dry Canyon Viaduct.

Towards Big Boy!! 😎

Magnificent! I'm looking for dispersed camping spots along the video so I can hang out in the wild and wait for a passing train. I know, I'm a foamer.

On the former Southern Pacific's Shasta Route.

Incredible views! What's your music from, if you don't mind me asking?

Wouldn't it be sad if 4014 had to be detoured true hear for some reason on the way to Roseville and you and some of your friends knew about it. Thanks for the ride. Paul

Worden, OR. Sinclair gas station with a dinosaur 🦕 on the roof. 18:57 🎶"Only Sinclair gasoline🎶puts that magic nickle in"🎶

I like your videos a lot, they are well done. Can you include one manifest train from locos to tail in it's entirety once in your videos? I like to see the consts of the trains completely as it's my area of interst.

How many trains pass through in a day? Sweet footage by the way.

Thank you for sharing. Can I buy this Video on DVD or Blue Ray?

Surprised u caught a t4 sd70 leading almost all were sidelined after they were ordered bc csx n up only ordered 20 each csx doesn’t even have there’s no more they were all sold off to progress rail I believe

I'm always enthralled by your videos, but I usually set aside time to watch these long ones because I hate to watch in segments. It breaks up the rhythm, and that ain't right. Your production is so beautifully cinematic. I'm kind of running out of superlatives for your videos. lol Just as an FYI, Mount Shasta is a beautiful example of topographic prominence, a measurement of how important a mountain is in relation to its surrounding landscape, i.e., how far it sticks out like a sore thumb. Most of the Cascade volcanos qualify. Mount Fuji is perhaps the most famous example. Mount Denali in Alaska is the most prominent mountain on Earth when measured from base to summit, easily dwarfing any mountain in the Himalayas.
