Vintage Steam With Live Sound

- There is plenty of vintage film footage from the days of steam, but film with synchronized sound is rare. In this video, we present such footage from the steam era.
These scenes were originally released by Blackhawk Films, but the sound was out of sync with the picture. We have re-edited these scenes, correcting the out of sync audio to present them as they were meant to be seen... and heard.
Now these are real neat. There’s not enough footage from the steam era with live sound out there. Thanks for putting this up!
Could watch footage like this for hours. Thanks so much for sharing!
You and me both!
You just cant beat the linked rail sound!
i have to say there is nothing in this world that works as hard as these locomotives!
Great footage. I note one train identified s a N&W local is actually The Tennessean. That was a joint Southern/N&W train. The streamlined passenger cars are the give away.
Thank you for the upload. There are a lot of steam train videos, but very hard to find one's, with sound.
awesome video love this footage of this steam locomotives
I liked watching the Delaware and Hudson Challengers in service on the grade north of Scranton!
This is some of the most incredible footage I've ever seen.
Very nice J Class footage. They are beautiful.
Fantastic! One of the best vintage steam presentations I've seen! Thanks for posting!
Best video of the year!
Absolutely marvelous. Great film from the days of my youth. I often wished I had been interested in cameras when I was growing up on the Soo Line in Minnesota in the 40s and 59s.
Thanks for posting, awesome film with sound
Insanely good. Best steam vid I have seen in a long while. Thanks!
Now if someone out there could run these films through one of those A.I.'s that take old films like these, colorize them, clean them up, and then bring them up to HD 60FPS qualities, we'd be foaming over film. But these will do. These will do nicely.
60 FPS could actually make the film look worse . Since a computer is automatically adding frames the movement of the trains might look a bit sketchy.
Wonderful footage, thanks for sharing!
Much of this footage was shot by Fred Macleod using his 16mm Auricon movie camera which also recorded sound. It was a very expensive camera and out of financial reach of the average fan.
tysmmmmmm for sharing!
Excellent!
There was nothing like the majesty of steam in it's heyday. If only we continued to develop it alongside diesel & electric, experimented with other fuel types.
The problem with steam is it reaches a maximum of about 8% thermal efficiency, as opposed to 25% for diesels. Add to that the army of workers required to keep steam locomotives running, and it becomes evident that steam never had a chance... and shouldn't have.
Steam locomotives have more personality and are much more interesting in our opinion, but that unfortunately doesn't contribute a cent to the bottom line.
@@DivergingClear Sad but true. Still would have loved to see where they could have gone with steam turbines.
When Steam was King.
LOVE the Pennsy J1s 👏👏 SPECTACULAR stack talk at 18:25
This is GREAT...but is there anybody out there with GTW Steam? I've seen a bunch here on CZcams, but I want more.
Wonderful video, thanks for sharing. Dave
Although it's the real sound but is still not near to the pure original, maybe the recorded of those era is not that sensitive. The real original sound is sharp and clear individually. But that's it. Thank you very much for your video.
It would be wonderful to use today's technology to capture scenes like this. Who hasn't had the idle fantasy of being able to "go back then" with what we have now?
We are certainly lucky to have what we do.
how about the new york central.
Y6a nice..

Great post. Very enjoyable! Do you know the time period of these film? It looks like the 1950s...
That’s one thing I noticed that all the steam films with sound have in common. They’re all on the East Coast.
Batting for the other team here, but Herron Rail Video has released some vintage film DVD's featuring sound footage shot by Joseph Schmitz of Santa Fe 2-10-4's and Southern Pacific out west.
@@DivergingClear I wasn’t going for a side here. I was just saying that they were all on the East Coast and there was nothing in the Midwest or Far West.
@@alexpaumen3937 No worries... I was being tongue in cheek about my mentioning Jim Herron's work. All the western footage I had laying around was silent. I do have Jim's DVD's, and it is great stuff!
@@DivergingClear Do you have any showing GN steam or electric?
@@mr.sir. Definitely not with sound. There may be a brief clip or two around somewhere from a vintage P.R. film.
The D&H steam locomotives sound similar to the Union Pacific steam locomotives
Yeah. D&H Challengers are Alco
Do you think there is more in your archives? I'm just curious.
Vintage film, yes. With sound? This is the whole shebang.
@@DivergingClear Thanks for the clarification. Did a nice job of putting the sound in sync. Green Frog released some DVDs that had these films, but they were out of sync. Glad you fixed this problem.
Which one the 611
