The Belvidere and Delaware River Railroad: Chasing the Great Pumpkin Train with NYS&W 142

On a cloudy Autumn afternoon, my friend 87STEELE and I decided to head up to the Belvidere and Delaware River Railroad (Bel-Del for short) in Phillipsburg, NJ to catch NYS&WT&HS 2-8-2 'Shangyou' #142, built by the Tangshan Locomotive Works in 1989, pulling and pushing the Great Pumpkin train. This train allows children to ride to a local pumpkin patch and pick out their pumpkins. This is also the last weekend that steam is running on the Bel-Del for the 2012 season. Please enjoy as 142 rolls through Warren County on some of her last runs of the year!

It is my second favorite 5 chime, NYC 5 chime being my favorite.

Ryan Seals I thought this was an NYC 6 Chime it sounds more like a 6 than a 5

Fantastic video! The S Curve shot at 2:20 was perfect as well as the shot of the bridge. Great job!

Nice video Bob. I'm sort of in love with the concept of a steam engine pulling bi levels... not sure why lol.
