Columbia and Western RR West Robson to Farron Part 3 (6 min)

Thanks for all the comments on "Trainz C&WRR" part 1 and 2 on youtube.

Part 3 takes us from West Robson ( elev. 1420 ft) to the summit at Farron (elev. 4000 ft) on a 25 mile climb. The video (6.41min) follows CPR#41 West Robson to Elholt Jct mixed daily freight with helper and pusher engines climbing the 2.2% grade in December 1901.

This video is shot the day after a snow storm with bright winter sunlight. The route climbs along the Lower Arrow Lake, crosses inland along Brooklyn Creek, cuts through the 2991 ft Bull Dog Tunnel and follows Dog Creek to the summit at Farron.

Sweet! Love the barge and the snowplow action. This is coming along beautifully, every video is a new surprise!

Wow! Can't believe I missed the first two posts. Nicely done. I grew up in Warfield so know the area well. Unfortunately missed the steam era entirely. Keep up the good work (play).
