A tripleheader during a special photo excursion organized by Carl Franz at the Strasburg Railroad on October 23 2017 featuring engines 89, 90, and 475.
Church bells are a sacred sound. The closest any industrial sound comes to the numinous quality of a church bell, is the wail of a steam train whistle. And this video blesses us with the sound of three different steam whistles.
2:30 GOD, that is such a good sound! And correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty certain that this is the first time any triplet of Strasburg engines have triple-headed.
JerryDoesThings Well what I mean is the engines that serviceable and operational which are #90, #475, and #89 are all up and running. #31 however is sill under rebuild.
JAM Rail vids oh... ummm..... yeah. little fun fact: did you know that they put 31’s whistle on 89? I kindof like that they did that in that 31’s whistle sounds superb (not as superb as 90’s) but i wish that they kept 89’s whistle on to keep it as historically correct (or in simpler words, original) as possible
JerryDoesThings I know. 31’s whistle sound third best after the CB&Q 5 chime #89 wore in 2015 and 90’s reading 6 chime. 475’s N&W hooter is fourth for me.
As a kid I used to record it with those yak back pens they used to make and keep it to play at school. The other girls had their lisa frank I had my steam engine
Janet Vonnik 😂😂 Nice! ive just always been attracted to trains (mostly steam) been going to strasburg since i was 2 and i am SO ANNOYED that i had NO IDEA about this until after it happened!
I wish i was there n they had double tracks so 2 trains can run n have a freight n passenger train. I would to go to that n record that n just be there in general
Hearing all 3 whistles at the end was just amazing
Yes it is
Walter Tamayo do you think I’m blind? I can see that.
Woooosh
@Aaden Wilson u

This has gotta be History in the making for Strasburg !!!

Ya have a seizure at your keyboard, friend?
Thundertrain2930 probably lol
Absolutely awesome and nostalgic steam engines I’ve grown up loving them the sound and smell of them
CNR, GWR and N&W Steam all working together on one train? Wow, now that's something you don't see everyday, that is awesome. :)
Agreed
The only thing that could top this would be a triple head with UP 844, 3985 and 4014.
Once 3985 comes back into service, that'll be a very likely thing to occur. :)
@@OwlEye2010that's **IF** UP will allow it. Their "No steam other than their own" rule prevents a lot of things
Church bells are a sacred sound.
The closest any industrial sound comes to the numinous quality of a church bell, is the wail of a steam train whistle.
And this video blesses us with the sound of three different steam whistles.
All three engines blasting their whistles in the end was my favorite part by far!
Wow that was a spectacular Showdown with all three engines 89, 90, and 475 working together.
I've never seen a steam locomotive in my life except for the locomotives at Tweetsie Railroad in Blowing Rock North Carolina
Really bro there is no way how you have not seen a locomotive just go somewhere that has a Steam railroading and then you see a steam locomotive
Holy smokes wish I was there to catch that awesome footage nice catch on that bro keep up the good work
2:30
GOD, that is such a good sound!
And correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty certain that this is the first time any triplet of Strasburg engines have triple-headed.
Im pretty sure they've never done something like this before
Lol
2:24 is better.
You were right
That is such a good sound
Wow this is awesome. I've never seen 475, 90, and 89 all running together as triple header.
Hats off to the great skills of the engineers,👍👍👍!
Wow 89 90 and 475 pulling 11 cars awesome catch
well done, thought this will never happen again, but great job!
All 3 whistles at the end even the n&w 475 hooter whistle was my favorite part!
Excellent! I sure wish I was there, too! ANY tripleheader of steam is not something you get to see very often at all! :)
Beautiful! just beautiful!
Sure wish I was there! Nice show the engines put on! Looks like the whole Strasburg team is back and opreating again!
JAM Rail vids well... dont forget 31, the O-6-O
JerryDoesThings Well what I mean is the engines that serviceable and operational which are #90, #475, and #89 are all up and running. #31 however is sill under rebuild.

JAM Rail vids also, 475 is about to go under its rebuild. Hopefully 31 will be done by then.
JerryDoesThings I know. 31’s whistle sound third best after the CB&Q 5 chime #89 wore in 2015 and 90’s reading 6 chime. 475’s N&W hooter is fourth for me.
Looks like the whole Strasburg steam team is back together
No, not exactly, 31 is not accounted for on this train, or Canadian National 7312
No, # 31 is Not there.
Play it at 1.75 speed. Makes it look like high ball speed!
Love the ending of the locos whistling at the crossing.
Beautiful!
This is incredible! 🤩👍
love #90’s whistle
As a kid I used to record it with those yak back pens they used to make and keep it to play at school. The other girls had their lisa frank I had my steam engine
Janet Vonnik 😂😂 Nice! ive just always been attracted to trains (mostly steam) been going to strasburg since i was 2

Every time I've done on the Strasburg railroad I think 90
Every time I go on the Strasburg railroad train I get drove by 90 my favorite with 89
I think they did a triple header freight revenue too.
So cool! Can't wait for another video like this!!
Funny that strasburg's smallest operating engine currently is also the fastest. OH CANADA! GO #89!
That engine # 89 was owned by the Steamtown n.h.s. at one point
Amazing catch
TOO MUCH AWESOME!!!
The next time 475 goes in for an overhaul they should convert her back to her original movie looks. She looks a lot better that way
The 475 whistle squeaks all the time
I wish i was there! :(
Riley Railfanning and Aviation clun castle
Riley Railfanning and Aviation I was there.
So Do I, There is Nothing I Would Rather Do Than Drive A Steam Locomotive As A Job.
Beautiful locomotives!
Chefs kiss
Strasburg 90 Is My Favorite Engine!
Almish think of this as the Acela Express
89 should lead 90, 475 and R&N 425 on a photo charter one day.
This looks just like how it would’ve been in the early 20th century with 3 steamers on a heavy frieght run to the next town over!
I wish the order was 475 89 90
That triple whistle.....
Corey Page yes dude
Wasn't 475 undergoing a 1472 Inspection?
H F McBain No. 89 had been down for one for quite some time.
Yes it was supposed to go down last year, after the Lerro Charter. However she was fired up this year as she had 40 days left or till October.
AWESOME!! JUST AWESOME!! I think this is GREAT!!
I wish i was there n they had double tracks so 2 trains can run n have a freight n passenger train. I would to go to that n record that n just be there in general
They do have a passing siding and run period freight on occasion with the regular trains.
You say n too much.
That’s a tripleheader freight train at the Strasburg Railroad!
Add Thomas on the front and you’ve got a quadruple header, although at that point it’d possibly be over powered behind Thomas, and overkill.
Putting Thomas in front of 89 90 and 475 may derail Thomas
I wish that was 2015
This Reminds Me that CN 89 should quadruple Head with Strasburg GW 90, N&W 475, and CN 7312
Me too
475s whistle sounds like n and w 1218
CN 89 0:53 1:39 2:02 2:11
GWR 90 2:23
N&W 475 2:30
What does it cost to organize a charter train?
I’m just the guy who love steam trains
I wonder why we don't see this that often? also I hope we can see 611 double with 475 on a freight or passenger train.
Why does everyone trade off there steam whistles all the time on every railroad. Is it something im not understanding about this.
What camera did you use
Ethan Trainz Productions a good one
that made my night
I wish norfolk and western 382,475 and 611 gonna make triple header at strasburg railroad but 475 being 382
In my opinion I think the order of the triple header should of been 89 then 475 and last 90 which they did do last year after 611's visit
WHAT! AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Cool Horn 90
89's crosby at cherry hill is the same sound as 89 in roblox strasburg last spike
the 2-6-0 2-10-0 and 4-8-0 all working togeter
Why did they need 3 engines for that small train
Photo charter
A cool photo charter that made it better with all 3 whistles giving the crossing signal at the end.
I’m planning to do that with 4014 844 and 3977 when I restore it
What camera do u have? Could u send me a link to where u got yours?
Good video 🚂🚂🚂💯✔
Primera vez que veo en video 3 locomotoras aniguas funcionando en un tren de carga
How do i find out about these? are you guys on a group? or forum? or?
Wait if the number 90 is a big steam train there is know way 89 can be the first steam train in front and nice video
1:22 Tres locomotoras con tender nunca habia visto esto
You don't see that everyday
Does 89 have 7002s whistle in this video?
Is 89 wearing 7312's whistle?
How did you know this was happening?
Sweet!
2:12 Pennsylvania Railroad 3 Chime
2:30 N&W 8 Inch Hooter
2:23 Reading 6 Chime
is that 89's PRR three chime 475's PRR three chime or 39's?
That’s 89’s.
What whistle is on 89?
2:20
Why not put thomas on there and make it a quadruple header? Or heck wait until 7312 returns and put Thomas on there to make it a quintuple header!
No just no
475 should have been in front of #90
Yes! In order from biggest to smallest
2:23 I think that’s K&L 90 whistle.,idk
Thats 90’s Whistle
@@tankthehedgehog105 ...
@@tankthehedgehog105 ik that, I think that’s the audio Steve used for the K&L 90.
Oh
