120 Year Old Cowboy Trash

[@CryptidWalks]

Those cans are from the Railroad builders camp cook wagon, They would move the camp every few miles as the tracks were laid. You’ll find more piles as you follow the rail bed.

[@RemoteTrooper]

Wow, thank you for that.

I was visiting Mount Rushmore and it was the height of the tourist season. We were lectured about not disturbing the 'trash' we found along the hiking trails because they are artifacts from the distant past of humans who had been here before. As we left the place we pulled out into one of those vista points to look back at Mt Rushmore. As I looked down at my feet there before me was a loaded diaper. I said to my wife, 'look dear it's an artifact.'.

[@175IQLOSERS]

In the 70's we had old topographical pictures taken by the military of the Sonoran and Mojave deserts in the 1940's and we would find the old wagon trails you could only locate from the sky and followed them in our 4x4's.. We found old wagon wheels and furniture and just all sorts of old things from the 1800's.... A lot of those roads we made that we like a lot are now popular four wheeling roads today.. and the people driving them don't even realize we made them with our trucks following wagon trails... That thing you found (power line you called it) is an old telegraph cross member... The telegraph lines used to run down the sides of the train tracks mostly...!! Those Santa Cruz cans are old black powder cans From a company called California Powder Company...re: for explosive... they ran from the 1861 to 1914... so those cans are old. I know a ton about the deserts in AZ, NV, CA.... Spent many years out wandering them.

[@RemoteTrooper]

Wow, very cool. Thanks for that info. I know of a location with about 7 standing telegraph poles (now that I know) that still have wires running from one to the other. I want to go film it one day.

[@arkhitek2251]

Awesome!

[@RTmadnesstoo]

Railroads used to have telegraph lines running along beside them for communications. Those wooden pegs were original and had glass insulators on them but the steel parts were added much later to carry power for lights and switches, etc. For some reason they removed them all over the US. A friend got a government contract about 15 years ago to remove them in parts of Oregon. That sign you read about the rails meeting there is interesting. Two different railroad companies started from the east and the west and that is evidently where they met. It was a really big deal at the time and they had a big ceremony with news people from all over the world. The President was even there and they drove in a solid gold spike. You can find pictures and Will Smith had it in a movie. All those people would account for all those cans. BTW, did you notice how those cans were made? Not crimped but each one individually soldered by hand. Lead poisoning.

[@ModelLights]

Look up 'Making a Solid Gold Railroad Spike' by Cody's Lab on here, he had quite a bit about it if this is really the correct place..

[@dr.OgataSerizawa]

@Not You The place where the east and west railroads met, and where they drove the gold spike was in Promontory, Utah.

[@dewboy13]

I'm guessing they removed the glass insulators, to reduce the risk of fire, due to sunlight getting magnified by the glass. I could be totally wrong, but that old glass has started fires before.

[@RTmadnesstoo]

@@dewboy13 They removed EVERYTHING including the poles.

Those California Powder Works (CPW) cans were made before 1906 when DuPont bought them out. CPW was the first explosive manufacturer west of the rocky mountains. That was a cool find.

Just found your channel. Great stuff, and I am a Trooper guy too! I own too many. As for the can dumps, I disagree that they are 120 yrs old. Given where you are in the Mohave, I’d suggest it’s left over from 1942-44, the US Army’s Desert Training Center. And the large concentrations of cans are mess/feeding sites for soldiers. One hint is how they are opened: by the irregular cuts made by a P38 type can opener. A mess section would have the larger P38 type can openers.

[@oneal36]

Yes, I saw where the pegs were threaded and that is what I was thinking about the insulators.

[@glennfoster2423]

Was the railroad grade that of the Tonopah and Tidewater RR? Ran from Ludlow, CA north into Nevada. The wooden pole w/insulators would likely have been for RR telegraph communications. All of the stuff is historical and should never be disturbed. Pictures are best

It's almost like taking a little trip back in time when you find something truly unique and can actually read the name branded into the steel or what the containers purpose was.😁👍 EDIT: That large can that you found was actually a powder keg from California Powder Works ('CPW' for short) and it was explosives for the military and it might have been used in blasting for the railroad. That can could be dated as far back as 1846!!! That post that you found looks like it might have been for a telegraph which could explain why you're finding those cans in specific areas there might have been some type of structure put up so that there was some type of communication be made through telegraph wires crossing the distance of the desert parallel to the railroad.

What REALLY interests me is those PVC pipes sticking up out in the desert. At 5:35 you can see one right there by the pile!

In the pockets of their ragged clothes were a few pennies from the 1800s. Harsh working conditions.

Santa Cruz CPW (California Powder Works). Those cans were at one time filled with gun powder for mining and railroad construction. The company was founded during the civil war. Later the company became a subsidary of DuPont in 1903. So, yeah! Those cans have probably been there 120 years or more.
