Boone and Scenic Valley train ride Boone, Iowa

[@DebbieSarahKasch]

Would love to live in a railroad town like this one. We could sit on our porch and video trains. The station looks great. Cool

[@travelingtom923]

It's a nice little town. Didn't have much time to look around but will be back for sure.

My brother lives Boone Iowa. He took my mom on this train. Hopefully I will get chance to ride this when I go visit him.

I hope to go back there sometime! Me and my family went for a day a few years ago!

[@lilucholt]

It was fun, HOWEVER on the way back the train jumped the tracks. We were stranded for 2.5-3 hours and had no food/water. Please come prepared....

[@rogergusty1802]

Awesome location....and awesome footage. We certainly have nothing like this in England. Thank you for sharing your day with us Tom.

[@travelingtom923]

You are welcome.

That water tower reminds me of'Petticoat Junction"!!😁😊

[@travelingtom923]

Yes. Anxious to see steam on this railroad.

[@johnd2042]

Very relaxing train ride. Great video Thankyou Tom.

Moc hezké video, + odebíráno. Pokračujte, to je pro mě romantika. Já se tam nikdy nedostanu, jsem z Česká republika, Praha-východ, 58 roků.

[@travelingtom923]

Pravděpodobně se nikdy nedostanu ani do České republiky. Naštěstí máme You Tube, která nás vezme na tato místa.

What a pleasant surprise. Leisurely pace of travel. Excellent footage. Greetings from India 🎉

[@travelingtom923]

Thank you from India.

Until you got closer I thought the engine was Music playing from somewhere. You could almost go to sleep to the rail ties clattering.

What's the main purpose of the yellow machine at 5:50? The caboose, next to it, is really in sad shape, not better than the one I filmed not long ago. The blueprint of the caboose was very interesting. Nice little red house. That will be very interesting to see the steam locomotive running again. Thanks for sharing the ride, that was awesome.

[@travelingtom923]

Looks like a snow plow but I can't say for sure.

@@travelingtom923 Thanks for the info.

Which locomotive was pulling the Fraser train was it steam train JS 8419 or was it the diesel

[@pawelsawicki7003]

Your a crazy filmmaker

[@crispkreme]

Definitely wasn't expecting to see the Metra electric car at 2:20!

[@travelingtom923]

Off the tracks too! One of the trucks is buried in the dirt.

[@evanf1293]

Hopefully 8419 will return to steam to the railroad in a few years

[@travelingtom923]

Should be running this year from what I have read.
