From the same guys that brought you the "tiger" UP Unit....
Author: 4451Puff

Is this video. What takes place is obviously very dangerous & illegal, but it's an interesting vid no less. It's not edited in chronological order, but it appears they traveled from the Pacific northwest to southern CA via the Oregon Trunk & Feather River Canyon. Enjoy.

Their editing would be better if they gave us an extra second on each scene. Too herky jerky, but then again they're 100% trespassing...

Hard life right there but a cool, insightful video. Hopefully nobody was hurt in the making. I have a link to a similar video if the OP.is cool with me sharing.

Saw some scenes on the UP Cascade crossing in Oregon. One view is going under the Bridge of the Gods across the Columbia River at Cascade Locks, OR. Several scenes were along the Deschutes River south from the Columbia River.

I agree that some scenes were too short. They did take advantage of covered hoppers and DP units, among others. Makes one want to say "more"!

No better way to see the country than from a train.

Looks like the edit was synch'd with the music, hence the "cuts" felt rushed.

Interesting clip of one guy who tried to hop on but fell off.
