Hey y’all, sorry I have to say this, but I think I may quick YouTube. The reason I say this is because I don’t have a lot of motivation to keep this channel up and running and I frankly am to lazy to edit and make the videos I want to at this point. If I do end up quitting, I will keep all the videos that are up and you can watch that stuff but I won’t upload, post, or stream anymore. A YouTube channel takes time and effort and I currently and for the foreseeable future won’t have the time or effort/energy to focus on the channel since I am now beyond half way through high school and need to begin getting ready for college. Maybe I’ll upload something every once in a while, but don’t expect anything more than a railfanning shot. Leave whatever you want to say about this in the comments.

This may be the last post on this YouTube channel until further notice

Today, 153 years ago, General William Jackson Palmer would create a 3ft narrow gauge railroad which he planned to take down to Mexico. This day, October 27, 1871, was the day of creation for the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad.

Happy 153 years of the Rio Grande! You may of been gone by 1997, but you have an ever lasting impact on the States of Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah as well as the narrow gauge and railfanning world!

Some things can’t go unnoticed…
Such as this image created by ‪@BMMEC6000‬
We were making jokes about the future live stream last night and he made this… Funny thing is that the line “Back To The Tramway” was actually a title u used while doing live streams for the Gilpin Tramway map!

Thank Flying Yankee Productions!

Should me and the boys (‪@LMR78‬ ‪@BMMEC6000‬ ‪@OfficialDenverRioGrandeWestern‬ ‪@OfficalF.R.H.‬ ‪@Coloradorailproductions‬ @Fischer's Trains & Automobiles and more) do a live stream so we can find out what truly happened to Gilpin Tramway #2 after it was sold to its third railroad… Because there’s no information on her after she was sold. She may be alive, or very much dead… We’ll see if it happens!

Hey, I know a lot of y’all are probably sports fans, idk how many hockey, but two nights ago, John Gaudreau, a hockey player for the Columbus Blue Jackets, was killed with his brother, Matthew, in a drunk driving incident when they were both hit by a drunk driver while on bikes. To honor him, hockey players, or people who watch hockey, are putting their hockey sticks out. Personally, I don’t have a hockey stick so I will be changing my Pfp for a few days to his number, 13, and put my lantern outside. May his soul rest in peace

Johnny Gaudreau, Columbus Blue Jackets #13
1993-2024

Matthew Gaudreau
1994-2024

May you both rest in peace

Should I make a Colorado Railroad iceberg list?
This would include things like the D&RGW, the Argentine Central, Gilpin Tramway, among other things related to railroads like the Salida rotary dumper, Unitah #52, and the Alpine Tunnel as well!
