Strasburg Railroad 90 & 89: The 60th Anniversary of Steam - Steam Strikes Back
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 10. 2020
- The Strasburg Railroad is a staple of modern American Tourist Railroading, running daily steam operations since 1960. The year 2020 marks the anniversary of steam-powered tourist trains and in celebration of this milestone, the railroad held four photo specials. Strasburg Railroad 90 would be the star of the show, given her long-time residence at the Strasburg Railroad. She would be returned to the paint scheme she wore when she returned to service in 1967, with whitewalls, white pinstripes, gold highlights, and the famous "Egg Logo." Also along for the ride, was Canadian National 89, another long-time resident of the Strasburg Railroad, although not as long as 90. From sunrise to sunset, 90 & 89 took turns pulling both freight and passenger consists, putting on a great show for all photographers.
Strasburg 90 is the largest, youngest, and most powerful among Strasburg’s fleet and one of the original Strasburg Engines. She was built in 1924 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works and is a one of a kind locomotive. The 96 year old 2-10-0 decapod began her service hauling Sugar Beet Trains and by the 1950s, 90 only saw occasional use. She was then retired in 1967, but given new life by the Strasburg Railroad when they purchased her 1967. She has run ever since, becoming a favorite to train enthusiasts, crews, and photographers alike.
Canadian National 89 is an 2-6-0 Mogul, classed as an E-10-a by the Canadian National. She was originally built in February 1910 by the Canadian Locomotive Company for the Grand Trunk Railway as number 1009. In 1919 it was renumbered 911. In 1923, the Grand Trunk was merged into the Canadian National Railway (CN) with 911 being one of the thousands of locomotives working for this new railroad. In 1951, 911 was renumbered 89. In 1965, she was sold to the Green Mountain Railroad and was then sold in 1972 to the Strasburg Railroad, where she operates today.

Incredible. Simply incredible. Those sunrise shots are just amazing! Very well done!
Thank you! I love the lighting from the sunrise
@@TrainChamber You're welcome. Yeah the lighting was great!
Fantastic video, Joe! Really glad we got some awesome weather. That shot at 3:45 though...
Thanks, Mark! Im so happy we got great weather. And as for that shot at 3:45 ik its pretty good I've been wanting to try something like it ;)
@@TrainChamber ;)))
Fantastic camera work! It was nice meeting you there.
Thanks! It was nice meeting you as well!
89 and 90 look gorgeous in the morning sunlight.
I agree. I love the lighting.
Outstanding job Joe! 90 looks beautiful in that egg logo livery.
Thanks Ty! I agree!
A very nice video indeed! Love 90 with white stripes!
Thank you! I Agree!
No wonder why I wanted to be a steam locomotive engineer when I was a kid.... Spectacular smoke, noise and movement!
I think we all wanted to be a steam loco engineer at one point in our life. It really is captivating.
Awesome. 90 looks great! If only 89 had a retro look too.
Thanks! I agree! it would've been nice to see both of them in the old scheme
A very Happy 60th to my most very favorite Railroad! 🎂🚂
Strasburg has been around since 1832 and Tourist trains started in the 50s. 2020 celebrates the anniversary of steam operations
This is amazing Train Chamber! 90 sure looks good in the Egg Logo scheme. Again, phenomenal work.
Thank you! I love the white highlights as well as the Egg Logo
Even though 90 is a decapod, 90 reminds me of the Tennessee central's 4-8-2s. they were one of the lightest 4-8-2 mountains ever built
An excellent job on this video it really captures what Strasburg railroad operations looked like in the 60s!!
Thank you! The retro look on 90 is great.
Awesome video!
Thanks!
Great Video Joe, it was so Amazing.
Thanks bud!
Those sunrise shots are amazing! This is easily one of the best videos you've made so far!
Thank you! Im glad you enjoyed!
Great video Joe. I wish I can visit Strasburg, and even Great Western 90 in it’s Strasburg Railroad paint scheme from the 1960s that it has today. I had went to the Niles Canyon Railway. And the train was pulled by Columbia River Belt Line No. 7 “Skookum”. A 2-4-4-2 built by Baldwin in 1909.
Thanks for the nice comment + thats cool
Awesome video. I'm drawn to it after that first clip blowing all that steam.
Once again Joe outstanding work!
Thanks again!
Superb job! You did an amazing job with the camerawork! I I'm really glad this was my first charter, looking forward to more. Spectacular Job again!
Thanks so much! That was my 3rd. Charters offer great photo ops. Thanks again!
Awesome video!! Thoroughly enjoyed!
Im glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!
Very well done! It was great meeting you Saturday!
Thanks! I enjoyed meeting you as well.
Love the video. Thanks for sharing!
Im glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching + commenting
Imagine 90 getting a D&RGW 5 Chime and 89 getting a GTW 6 Chime, now that would be something!
Each engine could keep the whistle they have now, however it would be nice to see the CNR 4 chime returned to 89
@@TrainChamber or a new whistle for 89 like a CN 6 Chime?
very well done hope the keep 90 like that for a while
I hope so too but she's being returned to her regular paint scheme as the charters end
That's unfortunate I would hope to see 90 in that scheme
The shots in this are simply amazing. Great video!
Thank you!
Awesome video! You got some sweet shots!
Thanks you! Im glad you liked them!
Awesome video, especially those morning shots in the beginning, phenomenal! 90 looked good in the retro scheme, too bad 89 wasn't wearing it also!
Well originally they advertised that both engines would be in a retro scheme, but im not 100% sure why they didnt with 89. Thanks for watching
Congrats to the Strasbourg railroad
Cheers to many more years
@@TrainChamber yup
Your camera skills are very impressive! Some of the best footage that I've seen in a while.
Thank you for watching, as well as commenting!
4:12
90 be like, “Good morning!”
Lol. One funny thing i think worth adding on was how they were blowing the whistle when moving around the yard at 5am: They barely blew it so all i really heard was a little bit of steam shoot out and the weakest/faintest noise of a whistle
Once again another amazing video! Boy I wish I could of been there. Anyway keep up the great work!!!
Thank you!
I honestly think they should keep this paint scene on 90 for a while and possibly do it to 89 and 475
I agree about 90. It would look cool on 89 as well but 475 would be a little odd. Id have to see it first
This is just stunning masterful camera work. Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks much!
Just fantastic
Millennium force! Millennium force! THERES A TWAIN, It’s me Nate btw
*_Yikes_*
Great footage
Thank you!
Great video!
Thanks!
WOW! They even repainted #90 to how she looked from when she first came to the railroad in May of 1967. Although, she no longer has her smokebox extension & rear sand dome but hey; it is what it is. Now all they need to do is repaint the coaches to how they looked during the 70's & 80's.
She won't remain in that paint for long, it was all done with decals and stickers. I would've been cool to see 90 in the original GW look with he smokebox and other dome but I like the current look better
@@TrainChamber I Thought the Locomotive would look even better if they painted the boiler green & painted the pilot & drive wheels red with white stars in the middle of the wheels.
@@ishirotanaka Thats your preference, I disagree.
I personally I like 90 the way she looks in this video, it’s more aesthetically pleasing than just the pure black look that she has had in the past
I agree. All of the striping makes the paint really pop as compared to just black
Wish I could have been there
It was a great event to be at. Im sure there will be something like it in the future
Wish mainline steam excursion operations will return to the mainline in the future.
Sometime it may happen.
@@TrainChamber Yeah, because it’s upsetting how they aren’t like this anymore. Wish they will just come back to life under steam again on the mainline in the future! Who agrees with me?
9:40 to 9:55, sweet music
Great Whistle. Its a Reading 6 Chime
89 sounds like she has 7002s whistle. Until now I thought it was installed on 7002 at the railroad museum. I hope that is the case. Did the Strasburg build a pennsy style whistle for 89?
You are correct, its a Pennsy 3 Chime. Its from LIRR (ex PRR) 39
Does anyone know if the hopper car a genuine New York, Ontario & Western car? I was under the impression that most, if not all, of the Old & Weary's hopper cars were cut up on abandonment due to being in such poor condition that no one would interchange them
I wouldnt know. It probably is but it might also just be painted that way
is it me or did they change 90 whistle
They did not change 90's whistle, they were just blowing it more (more steam in the whistle making a louder sound)
Awesome video!
Thank you!
