Rails, Tails, and Trails

Rails, Tails, and Trails Full Time RV, Railroading, Travel, & Adventure We are Jon & Taylor, the creators behind Rails, Tails, and Trails. Check out our website for more information!

What originally started off as a fun and different way to share our full timing adventures, has grown into an amazing community around not only full time rv’ing, but also life as a railroad family as well. Never did we expect things to turn out the way they have, but we sure are glad that it did. What an amazing adventure these last 5 years has been. We document our travels and adventures, railroa

d industry issues, and advice for new and potential new hire railroaders through our two Youtube channels: Rails, Tails, and Trails & RTT Travels. We also specialize in custom drone aerial photography & videography.

Working for the railroad is definitely a lifestyle. One you best learn a lot about and think about before joining. On call 24/7/365 is basically what it boils down to.

I hope you all are paying close attention to what is going on. 2 national labor unions representing railroad workers has made a deal and lined pockets with psr investors in a hostile take over of Norfolk southern. This isn't conspiracy theory. It's facts. Workers are being sold out to publicly support a company that has detailed PUBLIC plans to kill jobs. Read it for yourself. Shame on BLET, BWMED, and the Teamsters. Your loyalty isn't with your members.

All of this and more before we are getting ready to fight for national handling agreements again and should be standing in solidarity. This reeks of payoffs of the highest levels.

Gathered up some of our closest Wyoming friends and hit the road to explore the incredible highway 14/14a of the Big Horn National Forest. What an insanely awesome time. Too bad the rain killed our trip back on highway 14 east.
