I spent my early childhood living across the street from the Santa Fe line that went through the middle of Pasadena in the '40s. I not only got used to it, I love it. It's like a lullaby, sleeping by a train track - or in a train.

@@TrishBenedict I absolutely hate the sound of trains. Years ago, there were tracks both a block North and South of us. Now it is just to the South, but the Metrolink passes through Fontana every 10 minutes sometimes. At night, the freight trains run. When you can't carry on a conversation outside from the train horn a block or so away, it is too loud. Add in the noise of sirens, helicopters, ricer burners, and every other person going down the street who thinks the whole neighborhood should hear the bass from their vehicle and none of it is welcome. My family has lived in this house for 70 years but I don't miss the area when away as SoCal has turned into a dump.

Hmm... you might be camping on railroad property. We found this out when CSX wanted to close the private crossing that we use to access our property. The railroad owns the land 100' out on both sides of the track. On a different note, sounds like I need to open my kids old rooms to guests that LOVE railroad sounds. 😅

So sad that the launch you were going to finally get to see, didn't happen! We got to see from our campsite, the Falcon Heavy lift off the first night we arrived. It was incredible! It was the first time we had seen a rocket launch in real life! Glad you got it started and back on the road! - MIchelle

To each their own, I guess, but you didn't need to bash the place. It's the sort of place we would seek out. We love to park near trains - our favorite spot is in Caliente, CA, near the Tehachapi Loop. There's a place you can park where the train loops around you, and we go there as often as we can. My husband's a rail fan and I grew up in love with them because there was a Santa Fe line right across the street from my first childhood home. The trains clacking by are like a lullaby to me and I sleep better than I ever do at home - as long as it's not near a grade crossing where they're sounding their horns all night long. That's a different thing. But just trains clacking by? Zzzzzz...

Yikes! We stayed somewhere in the west for a month while waiting for escrow to close. The train tracks were across the road but not too close. Only maybe one train in the evening and one in the morning. Noisy but not awful. So, it wasn't bad. We did have a beautiful spot though. Lots of trees and access to pick as many apples and blackberries as we wanted. This was in an area where it's impossible to find spots for months. Kathleen

I have a great RV mod for you to always keep your starting battery full and ready to go. Buy a cheap PWM solar charge controller. I bought a 10 amp model. Also a fuse holder or two if you want one on both sides of the device. Hook the solar side up to the lithium and whenever there is a charge differential then it will charge and keep your starter battery fully charged. Your battery will last much longer too as it will stay charging even at night. I have had almost zero sulfation on my batteries and they are going on eight or nine years old. Yes they are lead acid. If you accidently leave something on over a couple of days it is likely the charge controller would provide the load, just size the wires correctly, and the whole project could be done for less than $25 more than likely. It might save you two to four sets of starter batteries over eight or ten years.

We looked into that very flea market site for our trip back to PA -but chose to go to Ocala for some deep quiet sleep :~) hip camp will be a great new tool, they had some interesting alternatives.

When I would camp with my parents when I was young, we pulled into an overnight site after dark on the way to Florida. Our site backed up to a berm/ embankment. We didn’t think anything of but in the middle of the night we find out that it is a train track and a train comes barreling through blowing his horn. It felt like it was coming through the middle of our trailer. I don’t think I’ve laughed harder from shock and surprise!

Freeway of Love by Aretha Franklin was played over and over, very loudly until bar time (2 a.m.) What appeared to be a heavenly spot during the day was hell at night!

So I have an Air Force one on my Winnebago Journey. My brake lights are tied to the brake lights on the Rv. They should come on when the Rv brake lights come on (including when the exhaust brake comes on. The care brake lights are controlled by the 7 pin electrical wire. The brakes are applied by the air hose to the unit under the hood. There is a light to be installed on the front windshield which can be seen in the back up camera. This light should tell you if the brakes are being applied (along with feeling it. Bottom line, the brake light coming on or not on the car do not necessarily indicate is the brakes on the road are being applied. When the exhaust brake comes on, the brake lights on the road should come on but the brakes on the road will not be applied. We camped at a park close today to Ohio years ago. Right next to Amtrak tracks. Trains going all night. The worst.

You can change them out yourself for around $100 for both. What a difference it will make when you do , but that is my guess. I figured this out then you first stated the motorhome on the video. That is my option but can't say for sure but I would bet on it .

Not gonna lie, labeling this as the worst campsite isn't so nice for the hosts that gave ya'll a place to stay. Maybe changing title to the most unique would be a little more polite? It seems they did a lot to accommodate you guys and well, i would assume before going u knew there would be trains.

Hello Miss, i am your channel follower and i watched your all Vlog. I really love them. But now, i decide to purchase a RV, can u tell me why u do not set a washing machine or dryer in your vehicle? Especially the machine which can combine both of the functions and the size is compact?

I installed a 25 amp charger to charge the chassis batteries (AGM) from the house batteries (lithium) and set it up to only charge if the chassis batteries drop below a certain voltage and the SOC of the house batteries is above a certain level. This ensures that the chassis batteries are close to fully charged. On our DP, the generator doesn’t charge the chassis batteries but does use the chassis batteries to start and run the generator.

I'm 26:00 mins into the video at the time of this comment. Oh My Gosh! This is bringing back so many memories! Memories form 38 years ago! Yes, that long. I bought my first surf board at Ron Jon's! I learned to surf at Cocoa Beach & at Sebastian Inlet to be exact. lol To see how it's changed is going to be exciting!

Noise canceling headphones are amazing. Id actually love this campsite. Definitely unfamiliar to label it the worst ever. How the heck does rain mess up the hot water heater?

With the Furrion tankless water heaters, they have a flaw with the exhaust tubing - in heavy rains if it get's wet it gives off an error - It's a design flaw I imagine will be rectified in future models.

Why camp directly next to a railway track (unless there is clear information that it is not being used anymore)? I wouldn't even park there if it is free.

It was disabled when the solar system was put in. I know there is a way to link it back up, but it will take running some wire. I figured jumper cables would work for now. Except, I forgot to get them before our trip, lol.

​@@GratefulGlamper Isolating them is a good thing because the BCCs in some of these rigs will try to charge your "house" batteries while you're driving which will destroy your LiFePO₄ banks. Jumping off your LiFePO₄ bank is for emergencies - they're not designed for it (although it looks like _you specifically_ might have enough in parallel that you can get away with it) - it's best avoided. Your Solar installer was 110% right. Keep them isolated.

I know just how loud freight trains are and being parked right next to them. We stayed with some friends up in northern Minnesota but with no hook for the weekend so we though no big deal it was great weather and to just leave the windows open well about 1am the first train goes by & blows the horn I about had a heart attack it was so loud
