Re: Favorite Flickr Flicks
link/photographer for this?!

It's pretty illegal and dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, where you're going, when you should go, how you should go etc. Trespassing on rr property, reckless endangerment, that sort of thing. Not all that different from hopping trains!
Pretty easy to do on stretches of abandoned rail and areas that have extremely low traffic from what I can gather, although it's not any less illegal. There are some lines around the country that private groups (rr museums, motorcar clubs, etc. ) have bought rights of way for areas of abandoned track and/or worked out an agreement with the rail co. so they can travel the lines legally. NARCOA does alot of shit like that. This however is gonna be a long term project with lots of research and recon before any attempts at doing the run are made. Currently drawing up plans for construction, then a prototype build and testing. Then heading out west, figuring shit out, and doing another build.

The one I'm working on will be something like the first one you posted there (the tandem) with a center platform for storing gear and supplies. Building it however will probably be the easy part. Figuring out time tables/schedules for areas I'd like to travel is another thing entirely... also it will be important that the apparatus can be quickly and easily moved on and off the rail. Also plan on making the bikes themselves removable from the rail sled.
If junk only runs through the feather river canyon now I'm guessing traffic tends to be lighter on weekends? Doesn't seem to be alot of info on this in the latest ccg.. Is most of that area single track? It will probably be worth riding that line a time or two before attempting any rail biking on it..
-
Last year the tunnels over donner pass got notched out, so all the doublestack traffic that was using feather river is now going straight over sparks-roseville. it hasn't been shut down, just downgraded. Junk is still running that route, much more infrequently, but you'd be hard pressed to find any hotshots going that way anymore.
Hmm I see. Would be interesting to find out about the timetables for the junk that still runs through there. I am thinking about heading out there this summer to ride or potentially rail-bike (working on building one right now) in that area. Something like that of course would be contingent on the frequency of traffic going through the area and/or finding corridors that are no longer in use.
-
Anyone have info on the current status of the Feather River Route? I've heard that it's been shut down, I've heard that it's still running, small sections have been abandoned, there's a new route through Donner Pass or something or other. Nothing solid! Anyone ridden it recently? Any Cali heads with info? Feel free to pm - and thanks!

Tis used to cut coke... that's why alot of store keep it behind the counter (right next to the cigarettes) nowadays... And they won't sell you massive quantities of the stuff either...

i wasn't really sure where to ask this, so i'm going to do it here.
i'm getting back into painting and i'm having trouble getting all my colors where i want them to be, are there any tips to color theory and just getting everything to match up the way i have it planned out in my head other than just fucking around with it until i get it to work?
i'm sure there have to be some tips ya'll have picked up along your way that you could pass on.

"Capawata," the reason you're getting shit on here is because to swoop into a culture you don't understand and say that you're going to write a paper on it, by the end of the semester, is sort of insulting. Graffiti culture is complicated, and it gets exploited by business (advertising) and by "Academia" constantly. If you want to really do something different, you have to be interested in the culture beyond just giving yourself some kind of "edge." If you want to say anything worthwhile, you're gonna have to spend a lot longer than a few days taking pictures and talking to bums you find on this website.
I recommend sticking to history - New York subways - because every city is different, Richmond included, and you don't have the time, or the respect I'm guessing, to find out why.
Good luck.
Amen.
Props as well.
