Railfan Diaries 17 - Whitefish to Winston Hill

Through July and August of 2011, Dave Simpson and three friends spent 40 days on the road railfanning the USA and Canada.

The territory they covered in this time was immense: from California to Washington, British Columbia, Alberta to Nebraska, Wyoming, Arizona and back to California.

This series of the Railfan Diaries – the 2011 Adventures – features the video footage shot by Dave on their adventure and is presented in the geographical sequence in which it was shot.

With the aid of a good atlas or on-line mapping tool, you can follow their journey and get a real feel of the adventure they had.

2011 Adventures

Volume 17 takes in all the action from Marias Pass from Whitefish to Shelby Montana and includes shots from Coram, Essex, Java East, Summit and Bison.

The team then head south towards Helena to check out the action on Mullan Pass with shots from Austin and Tobin.

We complete the program east of Helena at Winston Hill.
