Everyone is saying “you need conical wheels” but the real answer is that you need both conical and flanged.

Well, your comment provided a quick bit of self-shock therapy for me. I read your post and was like, "ppft, why does this guy have TWO girlfriends. " I don't know if it was jealousy or anger at the idea. 10 seconds later, I realized the nonsense of it all and y'all were just some ladies hiking... I though the whole experience was interesting, so a few sentences up, I decided to start telling this whole little adventure, that happened right here. On this very KZbin video, in the comments, under a post by @intotheether3803, where she was detailing an account of hiking on a 100+ degree weather that day day. Her post was followed by some laughter at the memory and nostalgia, before being left to be found 2 weeks later, by some gentleman thinking that her post was a humble brag / blatant lie about have 2 girlfriends and/ or hiking. I was that very same gentleman. I decided to turn the whole ordeal into a creative writing assignment to offset and hopefully correct whatever strange response that was initially incited by an innocent memory. One holding a trove of happy experience, despite taking place in a 100+ degree weather that day day. On a side note, in another book, yet to be written of wants and adventures. I want a train trail cart also. It's a great idea, and I hope it materializes in my future reality. With an expression of thanks, JG Zergherder

If you can't find or afford railcart wheels, think about using the front wheel rims of a garden tractor or riding mower.

For those of you who are interested this is the former San Diego and Arizona Railroad or otherwise known as “the impossible railroad”. It got this nickname from how hard it was to build the line. The railroad almost pretty much lost all of its presence when the southern pacific (who owned it at the time) started dieselizing it’s roster and fading out the steam locomotives. The line was abandoned in the 70s by the sp and to my knowledge it’s been pretty much dormant ever since The SP abandoned it in. Not much survives of this railroad par a 2-8-0 consolidation #104 (which is in terrible condition), a few railcars, and Southern pacific 4-6-0 #2353 which, while not owned by the sd&a, frequently operated on the stretch of line. If you want more there’s wiki articles and some well done books about its history on Amazon. I would write more but writing a KZbin comment on a phone is incredibly hard when you have to go back and forth between sentences.

Glad to see the bridge is still there, I haven’t been there in years

1. Get conical wheels. 2. Drive over the bridge.

[@SandTiger42]

I can't believe even after he was told about conical wheels... he still didn't look up how train wheels work!? It's surprising it didn't fail more often than it did. There are a bunch of rail riding vehicles on youtube.. it's apparent that he didn't look at any of them either. lol. It was still done better than I could have though. Looking forward to round 3.

[@thedave7760]

Conical wheels would have made it worse, he just needed to pay attention to securing the wheels on the axle at the correct gauge like maybe welding them to the axles perhaps. Then yes conical wheels would have helped a lot which could be done in about 30 minutes on a lathe. What made me laugh was thinking you need cell service to use GPS also maybe having a real map and some supplies maybe a tent and camp out or just in case you get stuck. This was a truly half arsed adventure from a half arsed adventurer but it was worth the watch whoever this guy is.

[@richardtibbitts3841]

@@thedave7760 You're right; it was half-arsed.

[@tyleralbury1710]

Constant goosebumbs at the end, that was truly inspirational and incredibly cinematic.

[@gen81465]

Use a zero-turn-radius riding lawnmower with conical wheel attachments. I'll bet you could hit 70 mph on the straight sections. Man, what a ride that would be.

[@annapond4199]

This is the best KZbin video I’ve ever seen. The comedic timing, the energy, the friendship, the determination, the songs??? Your attitude was perfect, thank you so much for making this

[@mynameisjustj]

I am an artist. The next time I am frustrated with a painting I will think of you two, and realize how silly it would be for me to give up. What a fun video.

[@prestongoes]

I love this! Thanks for sharing 🫡

[@andrewsanson5302]

Your sheer resilience and persistence is inspiring. Keep up the good work, I want to see the third video with conical wheels and make a longer journey with a tent on top of of the kart and spend the night.

[@ChristianHurlburt-ew6mi]

This was the first video I’ve seen of yours and recently I’ve been going through hard times I didn’t expect anything to crazy from watching this video Mabye just a fun little adventure but I really enjoyed watching this and the it was inspiring for me not to give up on things even tho we might not be talking about the same things we shouldn’t give up no matter what it is thank you for that.

[@romeoreyes7770]

your friendship is beautiful and your friend’s uplifting message of perseverance and hope is honestly so amazing and touching to hear. i hope y’all stay good friends forever because everyone needs a friend like that.

[@ognjenivanovic7871]

Paint it red = makes it go faster. Real Warhammer 40k moment right there.

[@RealLifeRickSanchez_69420]

Even better than Conical wheels are train wheels that are curved, so that as it rests on the track, the train wheel will hug the track that it is resting on. This design is used on the Shinkansen railway trains in Japan and offers the smoothest train ride ever because it's more stable when going around curves. The reason your old wheels broke apart so easily is because they are sand cast ones which will not hold under tension that is applied to the metal and the flange and wheel aren't forged as one unit. The other thing I would like to point out is that you need your axles to pivot left or right so that it can move in the direction with the curve.

[@DSB1234567890]

When you go back (with conical wheels) you should bring a satellite messaging device like a Garmin inreach. It would be a really bad situation if the cart broke beyond repair all the way out there, or someone got hurt or had a medical issue.

[@tarakivu8861]

its not thaat far from civilization..using some of these sos beacons would just end up costing you because you didnt really needed it

[@althejazzman]

I was one of those "conical wheels" guys on the first video, but seeing your enthusiasm, production quality, and effort for just creating an experience with a friend, I don't care how janky your hooptie is.

[@elrey8876]

I got frustrated by how many obstacles he created to his own success by half-assing it so much.

[@althejazzman]

@@elrey8876 I agree but a lot of us have also just bodged something quickly to see if it works. He's doing that and have a great time.

Wow, amazing video. Watching you guys having ups and downs during this journey and perservering through and seeing your dreams come true is really a great inspiration. Best side of KZbin

[@someTwizz]

I love the message at the end. Great video man! Now get some conical wheels

[@James_Lim]

I saw a comment about how good the ending was and thought, no way. Then I watched the whole thing. That was one of the best endings I have seen, ever. I don't think you can finish that video without tearing up! Incredible storytelling. Get some damn conical wheels!

[@daisymccamish]

You are such an incredible creator. You aren’t just making content for entertainment; you always bring a message of encouragement and hope into everything you create. So here I am, some how yet again emotional over a Preston train related video. Please never loose your beautiful love for life dude 💖🤘🏻🥹

Preston just casually dropping bangers 🗣 🔥 💯 ❗️

This makes me wanna try this so bad! All except for the part where you don't get to the bridge on the actual cart. Still an awesome venture! All about the journey not the destination.

[@bernardosilva2540]

I love the sicere and personal storytelling. It feels as if we were in that kart aswell, through all the highs and lows. I loved the pacing of the video. A masterclasd in editing and enganging the viewer. Amazing work!

I loved that you used Holiday for the intro. Great choice. Especially considering that in the American Idiot story line, Holiday stands for the first time the protagonist leaves home to go on a journey.

[@David_Quinn_Photography]

you should have a 3rd episode where you get the right wheels and bring a tool to give you leverage to clean up the rails so you and others can experience it without obstacles.

[@TheOneWithComments]

Doing this without conical wheels is like trying to swim without your legs. You need a whole lot of help and backup to overcome this one major flaw. The dedication was impressive but that seems like a really major part of the cart to just wing it.

[@CrAck-MoNey]

This is why I love KZbin! Watching people be creative, ingenious, and allowing all of us to enjoy in the journey.

[@TheTyler714]

WOW! What a video!! Powering through the hard times to get what you were working so hard for. And Preston, the words at the end were touching. Some people, like myself, needed to hear “don’t give up when things are hard”. You are the MAN! Keep being you and pursuing the smiles in life!

It was an adventure, memory's made with a good friend who didn't wanna quit home safe alls well

[@ryanbuckley3314]

What about a modular design? Detachable conical wheels, detachable engine, use an aluminum and carbon fiber frame and seats. You take it apart, pack each part past the obstruction, then reassemble and move on. You might need to camp out, but you'll get there. you're going to need money, too. Lots of money.
