- SY1771 crosses National Road G203 by a level crossing, on the way back to Diaobingshan from Kangping, via Faku.
This SY, number 1771, was built in 1999 and is the penultimate standard gauge steam loco built in the world (with the exception of Tornado). The last built, SY1772, which is plated as 1999 but was outshopped in early 2000, is also based on the TieFa system.
What an odd crossing bell...
Seriously, it sounds like the door alarm in a Mitsubishi.
Probably both "Made in China" !!
BikerBoyNJ LOLOLOLOL!!!
Well, it's the whistle that really matters! :-)
That’s what it is!

That crossing bell sounds exactly like a chevorlet door chime
Probably made in the same Chinese factory !! Andy
They do things differently in China.
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam Chevrolet is American
@@RobloxGamer6422 I know that, of course, but you can be absolutely certain that a large number of components (such as the open door alarm) is made in China for Chevrolet - Andy
Amazing video! That's the most lovely whistle I've ever heard on a steam loco yet!
The driver plays the whistle beautifully .... Andy
Tbh they sound a heck of a lot better than the air horns they sound more frequently in China.
Well done video capturing the whole process! (Would like to have followed the locomotive as it passed.)
Crossbuck reads:
*Be careful*
*Fire car* (means locomotive "train")
The sign below reads:
*Red signal stop car*
*No signal, stop use* [Blue lamp dark means no electricity.]
Unfortunately I had another video guy stood to the left of me so couldn't pan. A pity, I agree!
Andy and Dandan Fisher so that's why you didn't film that much because the man would tell you off!

@@AndyDandanFisherSteam bell sound like a backup alarm
@@thunderbolttdmplayz6750 I think perhaps all these alarms are "Made in China"! ... Andy
Thank you. On occasions like this the key is to have a good understanding of what is going to happen!
I’m from Beijing (lives here in the states), 1772’s front was modified to look like KD6-487, all 3 locos only come out at the Steam Locomotive Festival in January, but if you are lucky, you might encounter one of them, as many film crews make train scenes of movies or shows here.
I'd love to see one of the US QJ's in action one day. We'll see! ...... Andy

@@AndyDandanFisherSteam finally, 1772’s front was modified back to the original shape! However it’s now carry only one lamp, making it look unique.
@@rickd3777 Interesting. Thank you .... Andy
Trains are my favorite vehicles my dream is to drive one of these when I become an engineer!!!
You should start as a volunteer on a heritage railway line. Where are you in the world? - Andy
Some steam locomotives has airhorns for countries from SP 4449, Milwaukee Road 261, Series Hiwatha and F6, PRR S1, NYC Niagara, China Railway QJ, SY, RM, JS And Series Classes, Poland PKP Ol49, Pt47, Px48, Pm36-2, and Russia Soviet P36.
I rate this crossing 10 out of 10 cuz this crossing is so satisfying even this crossing is in roblox
Tx! I see by your channel that you guys love railways and steam trains... all around the world!!! Nice one. (I've driven steam at Wolsztyn. Nothing like pulling into a big city station with a load of commuters in tow. Really good fun!!!). Hugh
wait till you hear the electronic bells here in america
crazy to think there was a standard gauge steam locomotive built for revenue service in 1999.
They carried on building steam because it simply made economic sense. China has vast quantities of coal but not much oil. Their early demise was because (as with western countries) the steam locos were eventually seen as an embarrassment. The Chinese authorities felt the need to modernise to show the west they are a serious power! There is still a handful left working but they're now in their last few months of life.

There were no gates at this crossing. Just the two men you can see who held up the red triangles you can also see in the video. You may be interested in four other videos of crossings from the same trip -

Oh I've heard them already. Take a look at -
USA - Diesel 1 - Norfolk & Southern at Tyrone, PA
No bells or sirens on this crossing though!
The driver uses both his air horn and chime whistle here because he's crossing a busy major road. The whistle has its design origins in the USA. Chinese steam locos are copies of Russian designs which, in turn, are copies of American designs !
@drencemangalindan4840 They're copies of Russian designs which were themselves copies of US designs .... Andy
Nice video! Wow, I can’t believe this video was a long time ago.
How time flies. 12 years ago already - Andy
Yes, you're right about 1771. It's explained in the clip description. 1771 and 1772 are both plared as 1999 built although 1772 was actually outshopped in early 2000. It was cold there but personally I'd sooner be at -10c than +45c !
What camera do you use?
This was shot using my old Sony HDR-SR12. I have a new "better" camcorder now but it's not actually any better than the old SR12 !
the steam train horn sounds freaky
color color whistle
The whistle sounds ghostly
I heard recently that Steam is nearly gone in China.
I gotta ask since I’m a mini fan of Chinese Steam locomotives due to how similar they are with American Steam locomotives. Do you know what has happened to SY1771 or 1772? Were they preserved?
I have to admit that I'm not 100% certain. I think that both may still exist on the Tiefa system but I haven't visited there for some years. I had heard they were running enthusiast specials. I'm sure someone reading this will correct me! ...... Andy
1770, 1771 and 1772 would come out every year in December as a tourist event, they would also come out if there is a film crew filming some scene about trains.
Maybe this one illustrates the point better -
USA - Grand Canyon Railway, Pumpkin Patch Train 2012
This is the last- era Chinese steam locomotive
You are right. The last steam loco built in China was SY1772. The one in this video is SY1771, the next to last steam loco to be built.
Andy
Is SY-1771 a China Railways JF1 2-8-2?
No. It's a SY Class 2-8-2. The JF is slightly larger .... Andy
0:37 that horn is creepy!
George Plays ikr
George Plays It's a whistle
There is no right or wrong answers about the air horns the Chinese locos use because it really depends on their techniques
I've never thought I could watch a steam train working these days, you can see those only in the museums!
Well this was filmed in 2012. These locos are all out of service now. But if you look at the link below - these are the very last hard working steam locos in the world - still to be seen right now (2017)

Thank you !

Nice and I like the white light which means to yield and the red light is that the train is close to you
Yes. I think in the UK we'd say the white light means "Proceed with caution". Thanks for your comment .... Andy
Super video :)
Thank you very much. This one does have a lot of interest, doesn't it? Andy
It does :)
0:00 Broken Flashing White Light, light on solid.
This is China. Solid white light is correct. They don't follow American rules (or Japanese or Russian etc.) ....... Andy
of course... (high up left next to the cross sign).
I think there would be a camera in most western countries in that situation too although the Chinese do overdo it a bit! .... Andy
1:08 The train was puffing out so much smoke I can hardly believe how many!
It was about -15c at the time. It's steam that's coming out not smoke. At really cold temperatures there's always a lot of steam formed by condensation ...... Andy
sounds like my car door ajar bell
Same
0:53 Did that steam locomotive use a horn or was that another nearby train??
All Chinese steam locos were fitted with both steam whistle and air horn. The driver uses them alternatively in this video .... Andy
Great SY.
That steam whistle is amazing, isn't it? This is one of my favourites I have to say! Andy
GREAT!
That 5 chime is music to my ears
Fabulous isn't it? .... Andy
does china even have any gated crossings?
Here's an example of the latest technology :))
czcams.com/video/LzILZ7M3esk/video.html
.... Andy
I'm afraid not. It could be made locally as this railway system is part of a local business network and not officially part of the China Rail system. As a point of interest, the sign says "Be careful + Train". In my travels around China I find there is no standard crossing style or warning, although many of them are similar.
The little rectangular sign says “in case of red light - stop, in case of no lights - out of service”
@@rickd3777 Well, I guess that sums it up nicely! ...... Andy
Andy and Dandan Fisher - Steam Around the World yes
is there diesel engines in china or do they use these daily
There's no steam left now (2022). The last steam in industrial use finished this year. It's all diesel and electric now ..... Andy
that doesn't look like the safest crossing... but it at least has some kind of automatic warning signal
I don't even believe it's automatic. I think it's operated by a switch in that shake.
oh yeah maybe.
You would think China would have top of the line crossing technology...
Nice amplion on crossing!
The light below the two other lights tells the cars that the train is coming.
An advanced warning light ....... Andy
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam I know.
hold on why put a railroad crossing on the freeway
What they used steam locos nine years later
Steam locos have not been used here for several years - except for a small tourist operation .... Andy
That whistle sounds like a American Whistle
Very similar. I think, actually, a better sound than most US whistles ....... Andy
My dad used to make me and my brother walk along the railway lines in York. He was a roster clerk so he knew what trains ran when. It is only when he died that I found out he was an idiot! How we are still alive today is beyond my imagination!
Certainly, York, of all places, is not somewhere to walk along the railway tracks - Andy
I never seen a steam train locomotive in china.
There are very few left now. Only in the north western province of Xinjiang ..... Andy
China: We are the best.
USA: No, your not the best, we are
I'm not sure I see the point in this comment. Nobody is best at everything, I'm afraid ..... Andy

1:02 a fucking stream train! We got rid of steam trains in the UK in the 1960s! Naughty diesels took over. Now most of our trains are electric.
I don't think I'd attach that particular adjective to the steam train! Sadly, they're now all gone the same way in China as they are in the UK - Andy
The horn from 0:53 sounded almost a lot like the Metrolink F125 and the Hyundai Rotem cab car horn
Probably all made in the same Chinese factory 😄 .... Andy
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam they're actually manufactured by Nathan Manufacturing in the US
@@illinois_missouri_fanatic Somehow, I doubt that! Take a look at this list here www.made-in-china.com/products-search/hot-china-products/Siren.html ..... Andy
What City?
This is in Tiefa which is near to Shenyang in Liaoning Province. The railway still exists but there are no longer any steam operations there ..... Andy
Why does the air horn remind me of the Metrolink Hyundai-Rotem cab cars in California?
+stampycatfan01 Probably because they're "Made in China" !!!
Andy and Dandan Fisher Ah, I see.

Now you're trying to spoil my joke!!
Sorry about that, I wanted to clarify for confused people who probably took it seriously. Now that I know it was a joke, I get it.
wow such odd but still cool!
I love the sound of the whistle in this sequence.
Same
The train sounded like a dragon
The acoustics in the frozen woodland really bring the sound out ... Andy
Chia sẽ hây lắm bạn ơi ❤❤🎉🎉
I'm pleased you enjoyed the video - Andy
I love it❤
The sound of the whistle and the horn used alternatively is haunting .... Andy
Nice Catch!
Thank you. Please look at some of our other videos .... Andy
Beautiful Chime...
I agree. It certainly is. The sounds in this clip are a fabulous mix - the crossing warning sound, the chime whistle and the air horn used alternatively. One of my favourite sequences ....... Andy
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam Indeed! A very nice video all around!
Nice too
I rode a locomotive before it was slow and bumpy
Why does everyone think everything about this video is weird. You think some oriental snake is gonna jump out and bite you or something? What would sound "normal" then...
Each to their own, eh? The steam whistle does sound a little eerie I think ....... Andy
Nice !!
Thank you for that. Those Chinese steam whistles are awesome!! Andy
Most chinese crossings have these two tone claxons ... they can get a bit annoying!!
Why is this steam train working?
Unfortunately, this steam train is no longer working with steam. Over the last few years in China, there's been a huge and rapid modernisation of almost all aspects of life .... unless you're an ethnic minority living in a far corner of the country, in which case you still live in the last century! Andy
This is a re-visit for me as I've seen the video before, but it's well worth another look. Needless to say I prefer the steam whistle. They don't lean on the whistle as heavily as we do here in the USA. Over here we hdl the whistle open all the way through the grade crossing. Here's NKP 765 sporting a N&W freight whistle blasting through a rural grade crossing on an employee special. Maybe you've already seen it. Enjoy. czcams.com/video/edwLFONrVUk/video.html
I heard another train horn at the locomotive train at 0:53
It's the same loco - Andy
我喜欢蒸汽引擎上的哨子。
How often does China operate their steam locomotives also who agrees having horns on steam locomotives are only ment for diesels unless it's 4449 the daylight which has one
Apart from a handful of narrow gauge locos running mainly for tourists, there are now only about six steam locomotives working in China. These are at the Sandaoling opencast coal mine in Xinjiang Province, north western China. These locos are worked hard every day and are likely to continue working until 2020 (with a possibility they may go on until 2022). To see my most recent videos, please take a look at my playlist - czcams.com/play/PLNKEdhmODMJwMYOtPl5p0NYnhxStAn8jN.html
All Chinese steam locos were fitted with both steam whistle and air horn. The video you've been watching here is a good example of both being used alternatively. Their use seems to be random!
Andy
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam thanks
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam why only until 2020 or 2022?
@@evanf1293 They'll stay working until the opencast coal mine is exhausted. They're expecting this to be around September 2020, although they may discover a new coal seam which could extend this period to 2022. There are also two deep coal mines but, I guess, these will become diesel served when the steam is finished.
