i dont think it will happen cause it appeared that there was a sixth tunnel but it was caved in at their side possibly so even with conical wheels, they wont actually make it to the bridge on rail, just the same spot but faster

Maybe it's time to find another abandoned railroad to explore! @@gavinreed6113

Also metal wheels like a real train. Way more durable.

@@gavinreed6113 Rail cart with conical wheels that transforms into an ATV to go offroad 😁

we need something with conical wheels!

Specificly ones with a flange

When you fail on trip one because wheels you should probably Google train wheels and know this.

the issue is he needs a stopper for the wheels so the cart doesn't derail

@@rukirgamingyou don’t really even need flanges if you’re not going that fast.

Needs to be better engineered as well. Their brake design is wack and so many other things about it. Slow on top of that. Seems if it was that big of a goal they would have built a more solid cart.

That part of the video is bs, they knew exactly where the bridge was, etc... this is 2024, not 1990 stand by me 😂

life tip: if you intend to go to a place ~3km only one time, you don't need to build a vehicle to get there. Just walk.

​@captainLoknar was it not 10miles?

@@saltyXrice 10 miles is a lot but is walkable in a day. And I think the point was that the effort put into making this vehicle (which was not actually capable of making the journey there, let alone back) was at least equivalent if not more than just walking.

@@EncryptedLiberty Much easier to mountain bike, takes about an hour each way. Simply pay attention to weather forecasts and don't go when it's hot. Plus you can detour around locked gates and rockfalls.

Oof... and there is also unkindness, and often it is passed down from the ancestors and is called wisdom - I speak from personal experience. All of us need to make mistakes to learn. I imagine he not only learned about the importance of the conical wheel, but also a lot about mechanics and fixing things on the fly, as well as logistics and planning. It is true it takes some arrogance to think you can do anything in the world. If we didn't have it and had never set out on the journey of making mistakes and learning from them, we would still be living in caves.

Except he made the same mistake multiple times now and has not fixed it​@shanefiddle

Foot 2.0 is ridiculous. You can quite easily attach a disk brake from a bike so you don't look like Fred Flintstone

@@willieclark2256”the truth hurts” doesn’t have safe spaces and has never heard of a microaggression. Pretty soon humans wont be able to reproduce because everyone will have female anatomy

wooow .. mechanics and engineers but nobody watched what ther was failing.. conical wheels will make the peart fail even way before becaus of the added pressiur.. on the part from the new conical wheels-- all you bright lights did not see whitch part that make the wheel fail it was not the wheel moowin by it self was it.. naaa but the wheel fix rings who moowed on the axel.. but when you arre as arrogant as all of you you will fail.. the widio clearly sho´w what part on the axel failing.. not the rubber wheel.. not the disk behind the wheel.. but the axel ring lockers you arrogant bright lights

No one saying that he needed conical wheels was suggesting removing the only safety feature on his cart lmao

Honestly, I am shocked that this UKpostsr never decided to even check how train wheels actually work.

Use brake drums lol

What’s the likelihood you could run into authorities when on these adventures?

@@matthew_natividad low but it is criminal to do this because its still railroad property and they treat it like being on active rails for some reason

​@@matthew_natividadin Pa we have active tracks...if you are somewhat vigilant you can travel the whole country by rail or tracks.....some workers have a personal stake in calling the cops, others not so much. We used to hang on an abandoned tressel over a river, and sometimes when a train would come some of the drivers would throw 6 packs of water and snacks out for us lol.

​@@grekygrekThat sounds pretty cool.

Wouldn't that be very hard to lift? With the rock being where it is it all needs to be semi-portable.

@@awake_at_the_wheel7644it'll probably only add like 10-20kg

@@awake_at_the_wheel7644 You make a good point. For this reason: also bring sticks of dinamite and pickaxe to dig a hole to place the dinamite into :) Or the extra effort is easily outweighed by the hours they spent fixing breakdowns related to this exact issue. Either works.

@@lincolnv9261 Dynamite could work. Or make it so that the heavy wheels can be detached, so you can carry the kart past the big rock in 5 parts (the body and the 4 wheels separately). Then you just have make sure that one wheel isn't too heavy to carry, instead of the whole thing.

​@@lincolnv9261or a stone drill bit and drill. I doubt it would take very much to split the rock, you could probably improvise something for that purpose

Why does the distance increase when 2 tunnels are closed off i.e. the distance is cut short.

Because when the tunnels are closed, you have to hike around it. It adds about 4-5 extra miles for each tunnel closed ​@@doripenem

Well, your comment provided a quick bit of self-shock therapy for me. I read your post and was like, "ppft, why does this guy have TWO girlfriends. " I don't know if it was jealousy or anger at the idea. 10 seconds later, I realized the nonsense of it all and y'all were just some ladies hiking... I though the whole experience was interesting, so a few sentences up, I decided to start telling this whole little adventure, that happened right here. On this very UKposts video, in the comments, under a post by @intotheether3803, where she was detailing an account of hiking on a 100+ degree weather that day day. Her post was followed by some laughter at the memory and nostalgia, before being left to be found 2 weeks later, by some gentleman thinking that her post was a humble brag / blatant lie about have 2 girlfriends and/ or hiking. I was that very same gentleman. I decided to turn the whole ordeal into a creative writing assignment to offset and hopefully correct whatever strange response that was initially incited by an innocent memory. One holding a trove of happy experience, despite taking place in a 100+ degree weather that day day. On a side note, in another book, yet to be written of wants and adventures. I want a train trail cart also. It's a great idea, and I hope it materializes in my future reality. With an expression of thanks, JG Zergherder

EVERYONE needs a Mo!

you have the same pfp of mine lol!

I think that feeling at the end that you had let your friend down was completely unfounded. He seemed stoked to be out there for the adventure with you regardless of the outcome. Sometimes it's about the journey, not the destination

he made me cry😭

I couldn't stop the massive smile on my face 😀

@@musicduck4538 same!!

As a Coldplay fan, I can confirm that this is true.

it felt so forced

Yeah I was looking at that and was like .."somebody just put that paper there, its fresh"

9:44 😳

The QR code was the real giveaway to me

And the illegal use of the EAS sound that will hopefully get this guy prosecuted and fined heavily. Thumbs down and channel blocked. I’m also reporting this video.

@@RC_Aviator I would have ignored that paper, real or not.

I did that hike with my dad and family when I was about 8 years old, it was pretty far and I didn't walk all the way and now I kind of regret it, but it was a great hike because we got lost on our way back and when we finally got to the car our tent flew away so we just drove back to San Diego and it is one of my favourite adventures, even though I didn't see the bridge

Hi man, what would this hike be called, ill be visiting USA from South Africa in October and would love to go on this abandoned railroad hike 🙂

@@mbi.studioI think you missed this joke dude

I heard Pewdiepie loves bridges

@@bmtziii640ni-

@@benji7891 Please explain 🤗. My thought process was that he was talking about the last obstacle, which was a missing/collapsed tunnel, not a missing bridge

Seriously, they have this crazy desire to get to this bridge but zero effort in making a good railroad cart. You can literally just copy old pump carts. And the fact that they haven't put conical wheels on the fuckin thing bugs the shit out of me

You get what you pay for. And he paid very little.

​@@samadamms3432seems like he got a lot out of it though, so...your point isn't landing.

By the amount of money he made on this single video he can easily afford a second hand or new railway service pushcart.

Agreed, thank you Paul!!

This is a face-palm moment. Rail already dominates in moving bulk goods and raw material.

@@CaptainBill22not according to the bureau of labor statistics: www.bts.gov/content/us-ton-miles-freight rail carried more ton miles of freight than truck this century only in 2011. I found this surprising as I would have guessed rail did carry more than trucks.

no way its you lol

"its a terrible show name. i feel strongly about this"

please tell me why conical wheel will solve this problem becaus the problem is not the wheel.. so please explain why you think it is

@@kennethschultz6465it is….

​Search for conical wheels and watch the video that Lesics has on it. He explains why...​@@kennethschultz6465

@@kennethschultz6465 The wheels of a train are conical. If you ever see a wine barrel rolling down 2 rails it keeps itself centered because the ends of the barrel are conical. When a train goes around corners the wheel on the outside of the curve rides on a larger diameter than the wheel on the onside helping the train turn. If you look at most race cars that compete on an oval track you will see that the tires on one side (the right side in America) are larger than the wheels on the other side helping the car turn. There should be UKposts videos about this.

@@aculasabacca i actually don´t care.. this ain´t a train!!! this is a trolly.. trolly got flat wheels.. but the wheels was not the failing point .. the wheel locks was the failing point.. so .. using conical wheels will fix the wheel locks in what way mr. bright light

@RufftaMan REALY then explain a real engineer what made the wheel and wheel plate moowe sideways.. com on deer college.. why was the wheels failing.. i would say the wheels dit what the wheels and the wheel plate should doo.. so .. witch part was it there was failing it will fail even before if conical wheels will add more pressure against the failing part.. but what part was failing mr train driver

He’s no engineer, but he’s definitely a Trahan clone with some music chops.

Do you know why the kart broke downs every 2 minutes? Because he didn’t use conical wheels. They are imperative for a rail riding vehicle to function

@@LostLeftyLimb 100% agree

Exactly gay fucking video

@@fujinshu All he had to do was ask one of the UKposts engineers and they would've told him what to do in a 15 mins phone call....

but they turned around when it was right within reach... a few hundred yards away and they quit

"Heaps". Its confirmed, you're either from NZ or Australia

It's a great hike, beautiful view, definitely don't go in the summer though unless you want to bake

Why did i know you were gonna be watching this lmao

Amazing use of music as well, especially the original songs

Conical wheels would have made it worse, he just needed to pay attention to securing the wheels on the axle at the correct gauge like maybe welding them to the axles perhaps. Then yes conical wheels would have helped a lot which could be done in about 30 minutes on a lathe. What made me laugh was thinking you need cell service to use GPS also maybe having a real map and some supplies maybe a tent and camp out or just in case you get stuck. This was a truly half arsed adventure from a half arsed adventurer but it was worth the watch whoever this guy is.

@@thedave7760 You're right; it was half-arsed.
