Soaring the Rails Ep. 7 | Modoc Line: Howards Gulch | May 11, 2024 

I drive this way to Reno...often. The scenery between K Falls and Susanville is my favorite. 🙂

This is great...I love these "soaring" videos...I hope I didn't get too much popcorn oil on the controls while I was living vicariously in your little done again!!! Thank you!!! OH!...and more please!😃😃😃

You really do a fantastic job with all of your films. Thank you so much. You are amazing. God bless you and stay safe out there. 🙏

Thanks for the ride. Paul

Love this one. Thank you for sharing. By the way I enjoyed meeting you with the Big Boy 4014. Again thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much,even with no trains in sight it was entertaining,felt like a cab ride! B.

Absolutely beautiful scenery and excellent job flying ! Awesome video Dan ! Greetings from SoCal; - Larry

I'm not tiring of these at all. LOVE seeing the virtual "train ride" we otherwise could never experience!

Very cool flight and video Dan, with relaxing tune-age too! 👍 (Dave).

Great vid , what a location,very 😎 TY

Pretty cool. Like a virtual cab ride.

Very cool, I kept imagining I was zipping along on a rail cart.

Wow! Magnífica filmación! Realmente disfruté mucho este video.

I could watch these episodes on a continuous loop all day. I love this series.

DJI Air 3..... Cruise Control .....Wonderful..!!!!!

This was another interesting flight. It's icredible how rocky certain sections are on this line. I assume the huge boulders can cause problems after a big storm. The rolling hills are fantastic on both sides. The spring colors are indeed lovely, everything is fresh and healthy. Amazing footage again Dan. You really feel these low flights.

Incredible

Let"s fly !!

This was a fantastic ride down the Howards Gulch portion of the Union Pacific Railroad's (former Southern Pacific) Modoc Line in Northern California, Dan! I enjoyed the crew's eye view of the line. The scenery is not spectacular in this area. It did provide a variety of differing vistas as we moved through the area. (Posted 17 July 2024 at 1830 CDT.)

Thanks!

Bro your videos are AWESOME

Hey, Dan, thanks for an excellent Soaring video. BTW, I posted a couple older Modoc photos on Facebook for your enjoyment.

I really like your videos. Btw I filmed the Chihuahua El Pacifico railway for a PBS special in 2004.

Will you be doing an episode on the old branch line from weed up to Ashland? I know it’s not main line but last I checked it was still used to move freight up to Southern Oregon.
