Our Hawaiian Trains...1916 High trestles and flumes

Pretty neat train shots, Don.  Not exactly the Olympian Hiawatha, but then again, the distance from one coast to the other would be a whole lot less, right?  Wouldn't it have been nice if they had saved some of that for today's tourist trade?  Looks like the people there were totally fearless when it came to heights and balance.

Don,

What a nice gentle way to start the day. Amazing trestles through amazing countryside.  The music was great, too, especially for the train footage.

Thanks for posting,

Great video Don. (And the only Hawaiian video I ever recall seeing without Elvis or bikini's!)

Very nice, thanks for posting. I especially liked the two guys using the plank to get out of the way of the train. Just curios what was the train going behind the train on the bridge?

I am amazed by turn-of-the-century engineering feats.  It seems we can't get a road paved around here without months and months of delays

Ron, it's a railcar. Regular car with railroad wheels. Don

The guys on the planks were probably "posed" actors provided to show humor by the photographer.
