Soaring the Rails Ep. 6 | Siuslaw River Spring | June 2024 

The vegetation indeed looks much better here than in the previous video. The track is definitely in better shape too. I'm sure this line is a favourite of the crews, because they goes through a lovely and peaceful area. No car traffic or other distractions, just beautiful nature all around. Very relaxing episode Dan, thanks for the cool flight.

Always nice to see MOW is doing the right thing to keep the rails alive for us railfans. Hope one day to meet you in person when I visit family in the McMinnville at least once a year.

I love this "ride" ! ❤

You are so lucky to have such a beautiful country

You're a mad man, Dan. Keep 'em coming!!!

This is great! Looking forward to you flying the old stagecoach road with its crazy undercut rock walls.

Another great vid, loving these!

Great flying and a great shot.

Thank you, Dan, for revisiting the Coos Bay Line along the Siuslaw River in June 2024. As we moved along the rails, I started to recognize locations that were in your previous video of this same line. Thank you for showing us what this line looks like in the spring and summer months.

Thank you for another pleasant video, Dan!

Very cool ride along video Dan. Enjoyed watching and have a wonderful rest of your Tuesday. Steve

😴💭 In my dreams, I can be found there with cold 🍺, a 🚲, and 🎣 gear! ❤ the PNW!

Very nice video!

Hi Dan, many thanks and looking forward to Ep. 7 😀

Nice video once again. The track crew were working on the track between Mapleton and Cushman in early May, I drove past them. I suppose they worked on that section earlier.

Thanks!

Love the greenery and so relaxing! Hope you had a track warrant 😂

What a difference a few months make at the same scene...but I think each video has it's own charm...you really have a knack for picking just the right music and this one is a great example...the only thing missing was your wifey and doggie, hope they are doing well! Thank you for all your time and work you put in each video! 🙂

By the paint on the rails it looks like they are also doing tie replacement

Would have been neet to see a train at the end!

When I was a kid I would watch the steam engines on this line, we even had passenger service tell 1958 or 9 the line would go all the way to Powers. Logging was the main stay Coos Bay was the lumber capital off the world till the tree huggers killed the wood industry and all those JOBS. I here the train whistle must be around 8:30 am hauling logs for Japan and wood chips to China. Paul

I live in Coos Bay ! You coming to visit??

Nearly perfect segment splicing. I tried something like this but let it hover while I repositioned myself then edit out the pauses. I forgot to turn off auto-RTH but fortunately it did not activate. If you had a driver, you could fly the drone end to end without stopping or repositioning. Be sure to change the lost signal mode.
