    Now you can make a third video with the conical wheels and we'll all be watching again.

    I am train Driver in Pakistan. All of the scenes in this video took my breath away....... Such a wonderful place to be on the rails......
  • @thraxdj
    19:40 BRO that is the best cinematic climax you could've made. Absolutely great match with Fix You by Coldplay. You NAILED it
  • Life Tip: you can download a local map of an area to your phone so you can use GPS without cell signal. This is really useful if you know you are heading into a dead area.

    My grandma once told me that the difference between ignorance and arrogance is when you know you’re making a mistake, you’ve been given ample opportunity to fix it yet you still carry on. This is you and the conical wheel
  • "Sometimes, right on the other side of almost giving up, is the thing you've been working toward the whole time" BANGER, more relevant than you know, thank you <3
  • @DaemonWorx
    Everyone is saying “you need conical wheels” but the real answer is that you need both conical and flanged. If you look up images of train wheels you will see that they are slightly conical as they are the optimal shape for self steering on tracks, then they have flanges to keep them from derailing on sharper turns

    Railroader here. Okay so what i would recommend is getting wheels from an old hi rail truck or a push cart. Go to the local rail yard and ask around. Im sure if you show up with a decent bottle of whiskey im sure someone could hook ya up. They run about $1,3000 CAD brand new. So maybe a couple bottles. Scrap yards maybe? But id recommend something thats built specifically for that purpose.
  • The level of intricacy you put into plugging your shopify store is impressive. What gave it away was that the paper wasn't aged.
  • Two of my girlfriends and I hiked this entire trail in Sept 2020, where two of the tunnels were closed off causing us to walk 22 miles that day instead of 12. It was 100+ degree weather that day also lol. watching you guys go through this trail gave me such nostalgia !

    As an engineer and now a design architect I was rooting for you to make it the whole time....because it's so rare iteration V2 ever works so early on!!! Congratulations! It truly is a beautiful sight to see for an engineer!!!!
  • @Joe___R
    Just search for steel rail cart wheels. There are plenty of options and they are not expensive. Your biggest design flaw after having the wrong wheels is that you didn't have a strong enough way to keep your wheel spacing from changing.
  • @SchunkiTracks
    not gonna lie, the most beautiful ending of a youtube video I have seen in years🤩
  • @DOPEorNOPE
    Beautiful story man. I'm here for the next impossible bridge quest!
  • @daKexx
    "And you my friend have no ceiling!" Best buddy ever. Where would we be without friends like Mo. Thanks Mo!
  • As a hiker, I always liked to follow abandoned railway lines. They almost tell a story of the old days. You took me to beautiful landscapes through the video that I may never get to in my lifetime. I especially like this rocky, rugged landscape! And it must be a great experience to travel all this by rail cart. The experience gained - even if it is sometimes difficult - always brings you forward! Keep going!
  • @Tornado_Boy615
    I for some reason almost started crying of happiness when you found the bridge. Great job bro.
