Riding in a caboose is something I have longed to do since I was a kid, and I finally got my chance at the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. Along with five of my RU-vid friends, we rented Reading and Northern caboose #92844 for the excursion pulled by Reading and Northern GP-38-2 #2013. See the links below to check out my friends' channels or to learn how you can ride on the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway.

Jamie, that was awesome you and Nix, and JP and company had a great day together on the rails. Really happy for you it was a beautiful summer day.

Thank you, TriGogglin! Great times with great friends that day! It's a memory I will always treasure.

Awesome, great footage! The lehigh george is hard to beat for scenery and peacefulness! Take care!

@JamieMakin 3 года назад

Thanks! And I absolutely agree about Lehigh Gorge. Much as I enjoy the train, I often enjoy biking the trail even more. It's like a mini-vacation, and I always feel relaxed and refreshed from it (even if my legs are sore lol).

I want to ride a train. 🤔Probably put me to sleep like the one in Colorado 🤣 I am glad you are out of the house and enjoying your adventures 😁 with friends. Oh the view is great from the back , but I think I would be worried about falling off😅

@JamieMakin 3 года назад

Lol! Well if you fell off it would wake you up! 🤣 It has been so nice to get out and do things with friends this summer! Unfortunately they're imposing new restrictions here again so I fear I'll be back to the homebody lifestyle for the foreseeable future again. At least I enjoyed it while I could! And now that I'm stuck home I am finally going to start building my model railroad. Bought the lumber and tools to start that over the past few days, so just got to start building now!

I'm glad this worked out for all of us. It's a day I'll never forget and glad you were able to be a part of it.

@JamieMakin 3 года назад

It was memorable for sure, and I'll always remember it fondly. Thanks so much for organizing it and inviting me along!😀

Good morning Jamie. That was an excellent video. I really enjoyed you seeing all the fun that you were having. Seems like you fell him with a good group of people. I really enjoyed Bill the car host. Good sense of humor. Excellent views of the river and the tiny waterfalls. Very neat that they attach the engine to the caboose to give you a whole new perspective on the way back. It's nice to see you out with friends enjoying yourself!

@JamieMakin 3 года назад

Good evening, Dennis! Thank you so much! This group of RU-vidrs I have met are awesome! We've done a lot together in the short time we've known each other, and we've got lots more stuff in the works. The ride was awesome and Bill was a fantastic car host. We really enjoyed chatting with him, and I think he enjoyed having us on board. Lehigh Gorge is really becoming my home away from home. I enjoy that like you do the waterfront in Rockport.
