Jim Stobe has passed

[BradKajukenbo]

I loved Stobe's videos. I actually only started watching them this year. Less then a month ago is when I learned of his death. His death I think was such a great loss to everyone who was a fan or a friend.

Everyone of you who has posted your train hopping videos, I enjoy them all! I have not hopped a train in over 20+ years and they all bring back so many memories.

For me, it's only been two - but after waiting that long, it kinda does feel like 20+. Good chance I might finally get one this summer, I'll just have to wait for the outcome of the other plans I made.

I just spent all day watching his videos.

Thanks for introducing me to that great artist.

Nice guy, real nice guy but had a nasty habit of walking across giant trestles even trust is without cat walks like the one that goes over the red River in Shreveport.
no disrespect but let this be a lesson to any of you thinking about taking a shortcut across an expansive trestle.

I don't know if this is accurate, but a Youtube video says Curtis Bay CSX yard in Maryland.

When I did that video I only reported what was confirmed on FB threw close friends and family of stobe.

Yeah it has been a little over two years now. It is still mind blowing to me because I thought he would still have several thousand more miles ahead of him, hell, I could have several hundred more ahead of me. Still missing you a little...

Don't have a lot of info yet.Apparently he was killed in some kind of train accident in or around Baltimore.I know some people didn't like him much,but the man sure rode some miles.Hoping that westbound has lots of beer for ya bro.

Rest in Peace brother....
