「芭石鉄道(鉄路)」の名で知られる中国四川省のナローゲージ・嘉阳小火车です。 小さな蒸気機関車(C2)が今も使われています。 [China Steam Locomotive Train] This is Shibanxi Railway in China Sichuan . 20th.March.2010
I see lots of farm tractors in the USA in that condition. They may look like a rust bucket, but the oil gets changed regularly, every fitting gets greased, and the owners have gotten the capital cost of the tractor back many, many times over.
I've been watching a lot of train videos over the last year with my son (just turned two years old). Yours are some of the best and most interesting videos I've seen. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing this with us! China, Russia and other places should rebuild and operate all of these "little trains"! They seem heart warming and fit in to the communities they serve very well! The locomotives could be cleaned up and burn better so the communities would be cleaner and give a better sense of pride. Would love it if the US did this sort of thing, but that is a 'pipe dream' as we call it. Anyway, thanks for sharing!
This is the last one of his kind in China. And it isn't only used for tourism, but actually serves the locals for decades. For the tourists, the ticket charges one USD while for the locals living amongst mountains and valleys, the ticket charges less than 30 cents.
The people along the track are clinker-pickers, gleaning usable coal out of the ashes for heat at their homes. My late uncle told me of his doing that back during the Great Depression. He said they would often make catcalls to the engine crew in hopes they might reply by throwing chunks of coal at them from the tender...perhaps hoping to bean one off his head but his often getting a big, piece of coal to take home.
free fuel for cooking or heating the home. At 1 point it becomes too wasted and not efficient for the boiler, but still good enough for low energy type applications.
Be nice to see it shipped to Japan for a working retirement - especially after coming out of a JR workshop - the difference would be almost unbelievable.
Very good video, a dream for me really! i like narrow gauge steam locomotiven! i seen the last 141R SNCF ( french steam ) in 1970, and i remember it anytime i see steam lock on youtube! i seen also dampflock of Alsdorf and Siersdorf and Reden in Germany! thank's for yous videos lucky man!
that's called a blowdown, its a way to remove composites and impurities in the boiler, usually from the water. This operation is never performed at stations.
I'm developing a mild crush on it all too - these wee engines are so ruthless in their utilitarian existence that they reek of charm. I think this one's a C4 class? Little mountain goats.
All steam locomotives must periodically drop cinders from the fire. Most of the time engines operated by museums or excursion lines will only do so in certain areas where other crew members are available to shovel the glowing embers safely off of the rails to a place where they won't burn the ties or cause a wildfire. Looks like the steamers used in China for actual traffic do things similarly, only it's the station hands that take care of it.
Probably the blow down valve, used to remove impurities from within the boiler to avoid amongst other things priming and poor performance. Being driver controlled it would be used when no danger to passers by! Larger engines would often have whats known as a continuous blowdown, always active probably exhausting up the chimney so not noticed!
The engineer is doing this to blow "mud" out of the boiler which has accumulated due to using mucky water. They do this in areas where it will not harm people. Don't worry; the crew would never do this in the station or towards people.

@RailKingJP Your welcome, some of the clearest high quality filming i've seen on YT. Very impressed. Kind regards.
Nice video. It great to watch them operate the train.

Fantastic video!!

Very nice filming!
A special way to film these things
Be nice to see it shipped to Japan for a working retirement - especially after coming out of a JR workshop - the difference would be almost unbelievable.
nice to see more great videos from your new channel
A pleasure to watch - professional quality!
RailKingJP ....
Working steam railways.... like time-travelling! .. Thanks
thanks for sharing . i am watching in 2019. i have the feeling that this scene is now long gone ?
Very good video, a dream for me really! i like narrow gauge steam locomotiven! i seen the last 141R SNCF ( french steam ) in 1970, and i remember it anytime i see steam lock on youtube! i seen also dampflock of Alsdorf and Siersdorf and Reden in Germany! thank's for yous videos lucky man!

@neonpike
Thank you for watching.
It's called a blowdown valve, they use it when there's too much water in the boiler and to blast out impurities.
Excellent Video! Interesting and well done.

@maxonian23
Thank you for watching!
Is the railway still in operation?
好美麗的風景!好想去^_^
T'was the blow down valve. helps to do it eery so often in a steam eninge. you do it if theres to much water in the boiler and or other things.
Love these goodie oldie steam trains.
@peterlewis2
This loco called "C2".
Made in china.
Thank you.

Good engineer, he has that kitten purring. also so funny to see people, waiting to pick up the ash from the fire box and any extra coal
super,merci.
Raw form and function; beautiful!

Top Class Video from a great little railway

Please watch next video.
Why the hell was No. 14 carrying No. 09's Tender?
@ay76
Thank you for watching!
@Joebbel
Thanks for watching and subbing!
There is something romantic about steam, but from a practical and economic point of view diesel is better.
This is epic stuff. Thank you for these videos.
The mystery was solved. Thank you.
Excellent !!!
@LoisJAbel
Thanks for watching and your comment.
Very interesting videos you have posted here.
@jaribarem
OK.
I try it again soon.
Thank you!
Nice ! Again ! Greeting from Swiss.
Is this a working railroad or some sort of enthusiasts endeavor?
This is a super-cool RR.

This town called "mifengyan".
It is in Sichuan in China.
Thank you.
Nice shooting, I love railways.
Excellent
Great video

Thank you for your comment.
這如同70年前的基隆八尺門“和平島橋附近”至水瀾洞“陰陽海”的台陽小火車。

GREAT STUFF RailKingJP YOU HAVE THE GIFT TO SHOT GOOD VIDEOS!

@trainfart
Thank you!
mighty fine show!
Awesome video.
Excellant video. 問候從格魯吉亞 U.S.A.
Excellent :-)
The sad thing is that, this railway is now part of a national park. Tickets are expensive. The locomotives are refurbished with colorful painting...
That isnt the safety valve. Its the blow down for sending out sediments built up in the boiler.
@Rocketboy1950
Thanks!
Beautiful video. UP
Member of the channel. Parts?
Very nice video. 5***** + favorites.
@timsideas
Thank you!
Great steam era.. glad to see
Steam at 4:28 is the engineer/driver blowing down the boiler.
Hi channel owner do these train are still in use in china ...as china have bullet train so china is preserving this type of trains?
@togreektown
Thank you.
This happens in Australia too, Where i work they do it and its not uncommon.
Looks like the train nearly snuck up on a guy at 3:30 he jumps back quick just before the film cuts to another scene, he jumps back quick.
Fantastic.

They take the coal picked up home to the home.
And, it makes it to the fuel of heating.
It is a wisdom of living.
@drmagricola
Thanks!
Greettings, I like this video, Thank you for the invitation of friendship.
ah, thumb up.
in the China is this normal that steam railway takes transport many people??
good vid.
