@trainboy32: My video camera has an optical zoom of 41x, so that helps.

To see Feather River Canyon flooding during the flood of 97, search for flooding in the Feather River Canyon or "1997 New Years Flood in Plumas County Trailer"

Nice filming. UP will always have to use this route at least some of the time due to the excessive snow at Donner Pass. This route is far lower in elavation than Donner.

I'm waiting for fall and the leaves to change color to do a driving trip from Chico to Reno in a month. That is the best time to view this beautiful canyon.

Excellent video. The work of real professionals. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Your American railways are so much bigger and more interesting than those here in Australia. Although the private rails in the Pilbara (in north west Australia) where the massive reserves of iron ore are located, are very impressive.

Have a look at the raiways of BHP for example.

[shafferfox]

This is one great and interesting video. Absolutely great. Thanks so much!

[TheMadNorsky]

Great video, very well done. Loved your angle at the Williams Loop. I have seen several videos from that location, and none had the angle you chose. 5 stars!

[timsideas]

Fantastic views. I was in heven watching and I hope to go out to catch a train out there some day.

[piktrains]

Nice video. 5++

Last train at 6:30 was the same train as at the Williams Loop at 1:01. : )

[cchan006]

I'm sure you already know, but it's the same train for all the locations.

[piktrains]

Yes, I thought so. I just could not make out the numbers for the locomotives.

Nice job. Keep up the good work.

Was the GEVO that was near the end of the train, was it a dead move or was it being used as a helper?

[TrainManTy]

UP used DPUs on the Feather River line, and that was one of them. DPU = Distributed Power Unit, an unmanned helper controlled by the head-end engineer.

[fordroad]

well done men great vid top quality posting.

[bitterman112]

Great Shots, 5 Stars!

[Jeffwecker81]

Excellent video!! Loved the scenery, and the footage of the train passing under itself. 5 stars!!

[RailFanJon]

Nice locations and shots of the 124 car stack train love the GEVO ES44ACs too

[cindrellasunshine]

Beautiful scenery and nice train footage. I gave 5*'s and a favorite. Also, love the sound of the train. Woman railfan here, been that way since childhood.

[prorobo]

Those trestles and bridges still amaze me that they can withstand all that weight from constant freight use! Awesome video!

[littlesean2010]

very nice video

[seabulls69]

No longer a rumor. Saw a double stack on track one at Weimar on it's way to Donner last Saturday. My son took a video of it with his iPhone. See cmofo123's video of "UP going the wrong way" in my friend list for footage.

[falko73]

nice horn eco on the mountains!!1 5*

[Amtrakdavis22]

Great shots! You have to love the sights and sounds of FRC.

[RailFanDavid]

those are some of the best places to railfan the up.

[trainboy94]

I stood there this past Saturday, and saw 2 train, a UP stack and a UP manifest

[mafarnz]

Nice spots! I didn't know there was a shared highway/railroad bridge there.

[cchan006]

It's close enough to the horseshoe at James that people are forced to choose between there and the shared bridge, and they usually choose to take the shot at James, so it's a location not often photographed or videotaped.

[Satsc2]

I've been to the same spot. Of course didn't have a video camera at the time but its a great location
