2023: A Year of Trains in Review

Happy New Year! Thanks, everyone, for joining me for another fantastic year of train videos. It's now time for the annual Year of Trains in Review video where I go back through everything I filmed in the last year and show you some of the highlights. 2023 was another super busy year. While I didn't venture much outside the state of Washington the first few months, that quickly changed. In May, I made another big trip to California, covering several different passenger and freight railroads. Then in June, it was off to Minnesota and Montana for a look at Amtrak, Iron Ore trains, and the Montana Rail Link. Shortly after, I went on a few short trips to British Columbia in Canada. My biggest filming excursion of the year was in July and August, taking me all the way across the US to the Northeast and into eastern Canada. I finished off the year with another look at a few steam tourist railroads in Washington State. As a reminder, the 2024 Year Update and Q&A video is hopefully just a few weeks away. If you have any questions you'd like me to answer for that video that you haven't already submitted, you can leave them in the comments section of this video. Be sure to let me know that it's a question for the Q&A. Thanks!
