New video coming out later today. In the meantime, some friends in preservation need all the help they can get with saving two of the rarest electric locomotives to survive, lest they get scrapped where they sit. If anyone here is able, please give what you can. Every little bit helps.

Hi guys! I might have time to make one more editorial this year. Which of these subjects would you like to see?
710 for 7/10! This pristinely restored NC&StL GP7 operates at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum in Chattanooga, TN.
21 years ago today, Amtrak rebranded it's old San Diegan service into the Pacific Surfliner. This route has been the center of increasing activity over the decades, and is today one of the busiest rail corridors in the country!
152 years ago today, the last Golden Spikes were driven to complete the United State's first transcontinental railroad. However, the story behind the great wedding of the rails wasn't that straightforward. Learn how both of the engines, and even the date, all unintentionally got their places in history!
Happy 50th Birthday to Amtrak! Our latest video commemorates their legacy, and some perspective for some of the big questions that people have about our passenger rail carrier.
Harbor Island isn't the only place where we got our silly on. Who's up for a quick trip to Scotland?
One year ago, we marked 50 years of an overlooked Class 1 Railroad that was vital to reshaping the US' modern rail network. As our first ever editorial, we're thankful that this many people are enjoying the show.
High Iron aims to promote the very best and most interesting qualities of the railroad industry. Compared to other methods of transportation that we as modern dwellers are accustomed to, rail is perhaps the most underappreciated and misunderstood, and we counteract that by showing what trains do, how they work, why they’re important, and why we love them so much.
