Walkersville Southern Railroad Jeddo Coal Co. 85 Freight
The Walkersville Southern Railroad in Maryland hosted travelling steam locomotive Jeddo Coal Co. 85 for a few weekends in May 2024. By chance, I was a few hours away and managed to free up some time to ride a photo freight held the evening of May 26. Two of the railroad's 44 tonners powered the passenger train while 85 pulled a short freight.

Walt Disney World Railroad 2023

We finally made it back to Disney! We spent a few days at Magic Kingdom the week of Thanksgiving 2023. Magic Kingdom has had some big changes since our last visit and its not as easy to get clear shots of the train. As I enjoy all things steam powered, I made sure to spend some time on the steam boat Liberty Belle. The park had been decorated for Christmas already. We did the "Very Merry Christ...
Sherkston Quarry Locomotives
Переглядів 1107 місяців тому
Sherkston quarry was a limestone quarry. The quarry ceased operation around 1917 and filled with water. The railway that serviced the quarry remained relatively intact, including two steam locomotives that have now been under water for over 100 years. The area around the quarry became a campground. We stayed here in August 2023. I attached a rope to my Gopro and dragged it along with my kayak. ...

Trillium is a rare side wheel paddle boat built in 1910. Trillium is the only steam powered vessel in the fleet and only runs when large crowds warrant an extra ferry. We happened to be in Toronto on Canada Day 2023 and got a chance to ride the boat to Centre Island.

Norfolk & Western 611 was scheduled to end her residency on the Strasburg Railroad May 29, 2023. Coincidentally, I had family obligations not far away during the same weekend. I could not pass up the chance to see my lifelong favorite locomotive one last time before she returns to Roanoke. May 29 also happens to be the locomotive's birth/build date. Happy Birthday! Is it also a coincidence that...

Thank you, East Broad Top, for a great show! The Winter Spectacular had some rarely used equipment out on the line. In addition to 2-8-2 # 16, the railroad's M-1 and M-3 were out and the trolley museum had an as...

We were on a busy road trip that took us right by the Essex Steam Train. We only had time to see part of one trip. Hopefully we will get back to visit a bit longer during one of their North Pole Express trips in the future. Side note, normally I do all the video but my son got to do the pacing shot as he is too young to drive! Thanks for the help

The Western Maryland Scenic Railroad based in Cumberland Maryland has recently restored a C&0 2-6-6-2 locomotive, number 1309. What a brute!

This was the first time that I had the opportunity to chase a steam locomotive on a bicycle. It wa...
Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad with Nickel Plate Road 765

Nickel Plate Road 765 made another visit to the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad in May of 2022. It has been around 30 years since I last rode behind 765 so it seemed like I was long overdue for another trip. Sadly a washout on the Cuyahoga Valley line (which happened after I had already bought tickets) drastically shortened the length of the trip. That was a major let down as I was looking forw...

The Reading & Northern returned 4-8-4 2102 to service after a 30 year slumber. To celebrate their achievement, 2102 pulled 50 hopper cars from Reading to Jim Thorpe. The locomotive put on quite a show! In fact, the runby at the route 93 overpass/tunnel was the loudest I have ever heard any steam locomotive work. Thank you to the Reading & Northern for letting us enjoy all your hard work.

      I am glad I got to see the Roy O. Disney last year since it's now gonna be in Strasburg for a few years. By chance, do you know what kind of new whistle the Walter E. Disney relieved? I ask because prior it had the same kind of whistle as 2 & 3 (before refurb) and number 4 was the only one with a different whistle. Please contact me if I am wrong. Also what kind of whistles does each locomotive have?

      @@ZachTheRailfannerYT American 3-chime from the 1970s (original whistle). Before the current swap, it previously had another similar American 3-chime, but from a now-scrapped second riverboat. That whistle was modified to give it a raspy tone; fast forward to 2015, the modification was undone so that the whistle sounds the way it does normally. The old whistle eventually got so worn that they temporally took a Crosby/Lonergan 3-chime (possibly Roger's whistle) until the 1970's American whistle was reinstalled. I am certain that the current whistle it had before being shipped out will be the whistle it comes back with.

    Great to see this I used to work on the Waverley which has a very similar engine room but a triple rarher than double expansion. I’m guessing by the fact there are two telegraphs that Trillium has independent control of each paddle wheel? (Something Waverley does not have.)

    Fun fact: 190, as well as sister engine 192 at Dollywood, are both former US army steam locomotives. They were built in 1942 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works specifically for the US army, and are class s-118 steam locomotives. They are also the same class of locomotive as the Queensland Railways AC16 locomotives.
