ABANDONED RAILROAD EXPLORATION: Hiking the Port of Tillamook Bay line through the Oregon coast range

[@stevenphelps7929]

It's shame that things are built by man has to be neglected, but natural finds away to make it worth respecting, such a beautiful scenery. Thank you for the this aw video..

[@jddr.jkindle9708]

Thanks for the relaxing scenic view.

[@glendaraehilyard9524]

I lived in Enright Or in 1956....it was beautiful. When the SP railroad went thru there. Tea close to our house.

[@oldenweery7510]

Nice video! I liked that you shut off the camera just inside the first tunnel, then restarted it near the other end. (I also liked it that you *didn't* "look" over the side of the second trestle, as my acrophobia would've kicked in, especially seeing how flimsy the railings were!) Like the way you showed the curvature inside the second tunnel before shutting off, then resumed at the other end. I subbed and liked. Thanks! P.S. Nice music, too.

Two parts of the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad have railriders you can peddle from Bag City to Tillamook .and from Wheeler north .

[@charliemartin5482]

Hey KZbin I said Bag City !

[@charliemartin5482]

Ba y City

[@jacobmaurin7549]

I wish trains still run on it. That would be a cool trip.

[@ilikeminecraftgaming9331]

Me and my dad have driven passed that railroad on a way to my soccer game before,I've always wondered if that was abandend before

[@jburnett8152]

Awesome 💜

[@peterhoffman2639]

You might enjoy "Extreme Railbiking" on KZbin. Part 2 has some scenes between Cochran the the Salmonberry.

[@blastinglemur7861]

If anyone is wondering where to start it's the pond

[@allancron1936]

This would be an incredible tourist train trip, wondering if anybody has thought about running speedster on it

When you think of the time, effort and money it cost to build those railways and those tunnels, its criminal to just abandon them. But who is going to pay for the maintenance.

[@N330AA]

Especially when you consider these lines were built with nowhere near the technology and tools we have today.

[@izzywatashi371]

Made that hike from Cochran down to the Nehalem River 2 years ago. The destruction of that rail line is quite impressive. . .Mother Nature rules.. I'm sure we were that last to pass through the long tunnel as that collapsed tunnel was barely passable - our butts were up against the ceiling. . .It's an all day hike, for sure!

[@flfun1684]

2:36 entrance of tunnel you see a land slide of earth

[@johnryan8533]

That's probably a slow creeping of earth on to the track, rather than a slide. it's called 'mass wasting' and happens slowly in a lot of places.

[@christophercote1482]

anyone know if the old caboose is still up there? just camped at wheeler pond yesterday and thought the caboose was somewhere right there if my memory served correct but but couldn't find it.

[@foellerd]

I saw a comment on another video that OCSR picked it up and moved it to Garibaldi.

[@RailPreserver2K]

Dang and this would make a good scenic railroad

[@jacobwoods8738]

Railroad,Preserver,2000 The coastal 49 miles to Tillamook Airship Hanger are operated by the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad however the Salmonberry Trail group wants all 96 miles, not just this half. They want the coastal portion the train (with 3 steam engines plus currently SKOOKUM) runs on. The railway is willing to let the go alongside and help construct it, just not lift the rails for a trail. This portion is far to expensive to operate.

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

Do billionaires ever consider buying tourist railroads just to preserve them? How many of them have closed in the last 30 years?

[@wizardofodds8239]

How did you hike over those ties without tripping? Melancholy video...would have been nice to see the route from Google Maps too. Thanks for the experience.

[@charliemartin5482]

A lot of this is just north of the Salmonberry River in western Oregon .

[@thestars8941]

Memorable 💕

[@LittleInsulator101]

Rails to trails project coming soon!!!

[@Barny5ive]

When did this line shut down?

[@Locomotive4449]

2007.

[@HoboRoadrunner]

2007 after a storm damaged parts of the tracks after that they abandoned most of the eastern portion

[@hannibalwade]

music ..name(?)

[@HoboRoadrunner]

Whats the closest town to these tracks

[@MuricanAF]

Timber, OR

[@charliemartin5482]

There still a scenic train running from Garibaldi to Rockaway Beach.

[@ccaaproduction105]

well done

[@glenreynol0075]

Who owned the line before abandonment?

[@1RedneckRC1]

The port of tillamook bay

[@glenreynol0075]

+dale kathrein Thanks Dale.

[@mentallyilldarkjeroid5378]

People need to buy my 'Impact' A James Grider novel on Amazon and linked in my videos so I can afford to move out of the desert into a forested place like this. Someone needs to run a train that thing with James Grider inside it.

[@HoboRoadrunner]

Kieran Lepley I say leave the tracks be . I love trains and I'm a freight rider but when mother nature takes back what is her then in my mind it's best to leave it be

[@garywallin5030]

one little troll didn't like your vid....what's not to like? Wish I could drive close & do a small hike as I am old & can't walk too far....thx for the great scenery

[@consciouscoma85]

would make a great bike trail

[@framing40s]

song name?

[@Locomotive4449]

No idea. Whatever royalty-free music KZbin media editor had available at the time.
