What happens when a bustling town just... disappears and is abandoned by history? We set out to answer that question, venturing deep into the mountains following the once pristine railroad(s)
For decades, rumors have swirled about a once-thriving railroad community hidden in a deep mountain canyon only accessible by railway for much of its existence that seemingly vanished from the map. Buildings swallowed by the forest, stories lost to time... until now. We armed ourselves with historical maps, local legends, and a thirst for adventure to find this lost place.
Join us as we piece together the story of this once crucial point of industry and ingenuity and ask the question: what really happened here? How did the once Northern Pacific and Milwaukee Railroad two of the greatest Transcontinental railroads in American history once operate in this remote canyon railroad basin no abandoned by time and overtaken by nature.
The stories of a bygone era await us, join me as I follow the abandoned railway tracks and railbed to uncover the once engineering marvel and unique appeal of this once beautiful city unseen and abandoned by time itself now.
Today we follow this historic train routes along the forgotten tracks of the Northern Pacific Railroad and the famous Milwaukee Railroad.
Happy to share and thank you for joining me as always. This is one you don't want to miss!
