    Probably the most entertaining near 50 minutes on CZcams. This video really shows how a steam locomotive is "alive". There was a time when this was the best technology, a controlled fire heating water to make steam that could pull many rail cars long distances, that fact amazes me. I don't care where this train went, or what time of the year, it was just entertaining to see it in action.

    Ah, yes. The size of such a gallant engine, the clanging of the bell, and the wail of the whistle. Its amazing seeing a steam locomotive in proper working order, and its another thing to get a cab view, essentially. A beautiful engine, indeed, even if the weather wasn't the best. Great video

    First off this locomotive is of the 2-8-0 driver arrangement. The middle two drivers are flangeless allowing it to run on tight radius track. That could be why it is slipping on wet rail. The lead and rear axles are the only ones doing the work. And If I miss my guess there is a helper diesel on the rear end just in case the engine stalls along the way. Just my opinion here.

    Some additional fun facts from a local. The Walmart to the right of the tracks at the beginning of the video has since closed, and the Neyland Drive crossing by the stadium used to be well-known for wrecking cyclists until they re-aligned the bike lane to cross at a more perpendicular angle. Here's four solid minutes of bikes wiping out on those tracks... czcams.com/video/YfeQvbIFBks/video.html

      @justanotheraviator2357 Před 5 lety +1

      Soo, If there isn't a steam engine, them the bikes can have a normal crossing. Blind drivers (the trains wheels) are driving wheels without a flange to hold them on the track. Blind drivers are also wider in order to stay on the rails as the engine turns. They allow the steam engine to take curves, blind drivers give the ability to take a corner where with normal drive wheels you couldn't because they want to stay straight.
