@4Mr2ThC0 yeah, same thing with old tractors i used to drive when i worked for the farm. NONE of them worked right (the wipers). i just didn't even bother when it rained.
Worked out of Nelson Yard in 1977 then transfered to Revelstoke at April change of Card. Worked my way up to Tail end trainman then left for a trade in the HVAC industry. Left just before the took away the Caboose... Still miss the Railroad though.
@JoeHVACR You aren't missing much. I'm 10 years into the industry and it's a lonely one now. I work 6 days by myself and just fell out yesterday because of the heat.
That wall at 5:26 is the remains of the Corry Brothers Tunnel. At one time, the whole tunnel liner was intact from portal to portal with the overburden removed.
Wow, detectors used to sound lame.
Really enjoyed the video, it takes a lot of effort to get to some of these locations, so it's nice to see them here!

The second unit seems to be an FP9A, I always saw just B-units on this train when I saw it.
