Railroads of Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula Part 2. The Clint Jones, Jr Movie Series. 

Wow, this is incredible footage, blows the footage from the first video out of the water. This is incredibly invaluable information that isn't available nearly anywhere else on the internet.

What a treasure!!

I appreciate video of the Copper Country Ltd. in warmer weather. The ***vast majority*** of photos I see of this train in Calumet are in snow. I've been up there more than once in summer and I can say that it's not buried in snow all year round. In fact, summer may be the nicest week to be there! LOL!

Fantastic footage!

It was interesting to see the same areas that Nancy Haun videos from a different angle - and a different time.

I've really enjoyed your Upper Peninsula train videos. I've been exploring the areas in this video for about the past 12 years, plus I've been researching the area for even longer. The scene on the Copper Range trestle in Beacon Hill blew my mind! I've seen pictures of the mill that was service by the branch on that trestle. This is the first time I've seen it in color, let alone on film. Can't remember the name of that mill, but the ruins are all buried in tall woods now. I really wish I could have seen it 50+ years ago! I really enjoyed the Soo Line footage too!

Fascinating film. Thank you for sharing.

Excellent! Sad that this is all gone.

I,just finished watching your videos part #1and #2,and I enjoyed them. I,also remember when Greyhound used to offer 🚌 bus service between Calumet, Michigan to Chicago, Illinois. I,still remember when I would take Greyhound Bus, from Detroit, Michigan to Houghton/Hancock. Greyhound ran,Bus Service during the 1960's, 1970's and 1980's, 1990's. I,was living in Detroit and I am still living in Detroit. 7:13

Wow amazing footage and commentary, especially on the Copper Range RR. Priceless! As always, thanks for sharing.

There was no need for an alarm clock this morning. In fact after watching it once had to go back and watch it again. The rural mail pouches are among the best and starting at 1:45 the famous vestibule squeak bounding down the track raising enough dust to choke the horse flies up there. Amazing how long some of those structures hung in there so long. The View underneath the lift bridge was great as it's not an angle normally shown. Then off to the Baldwins and one of the few lines to use that red rotating light on the hood. Now I'm exhausted time to take a nap and I'm sure I'll have good dreams

Wow, what a neat presentation!!!!

Priceless!

This is amazing footage. The Copper Range footage is priceless to me as I am planning on modeling it at some point.

fantastic

Another excellent video..

Fantastic film.

The narration is great. Thanks for not adding music

Spectacular! I was keeping an eye out for a younger version of @nancyhaun railfanning at Herman!

Absolutely amazing! It's just my opinion, but I prefer the silence in the gaps between the narration. Thanks for uploading!

Very nice. Like I said in the last video, I have not been there since I was a kid in the late 1960's and early 1970's 6 or 7 years old, so I do not remember very much, other than riding on the steam excursion train.

Looks like Milwaukee Road power and coaches!

Thanks again for posting these videos, I really enjoyed them any chance of A part 3?

The Rockefeller Bros influenced the progress of the elimination of Mail from the Rails in 1967. Their Oil Profits increased, as small towns faded away without a Post Office.

Thank you for another wonderful, digitized video of another of Clint Jones, Jr.'s 8mm films from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan from the 1960s, KillerBill! Is some of the trackage in this video now operated by the Canadian National? Nancy Huan covers the Canadian National's L'Anse Local on her RU-vid channel. I heard from of the same place names in the narration of this video that I hear on her Videos e.g. L'Anse Hill, Ford Switch, Baraaga. (Posted 19 October 2024 at 2054 CDT.)

Did the kid get to go pee? (11:17)
