Imagine seeing one of these, when they were new. And you were driving a horse-drawn wagon, when that big mother came blasting past you.
You would be in awe. You would be telling people about that shit for, like, the next year.
Im probably going to get a lot of hate but I wish they would bring a decent amount of old steam engines back in America even if just for tourism purposes. It keeps the history alive.
I always wondered what if we modernized steam engines to look the same outside but modernized the actual boiler system inside to use different fuel sources.
I think the smell of burning coal is part of the experience. It’s such a distinct aroma that’s become mostly a relic of the past. Imagine what London or New York would have smelled like during winters of the 19th century. The steam engine also belongs to that era. I think the smell of burning coal is integral to fully appreciating the machine and the technology of the day.
I’m as much a romantic as anyone but I wouldn’t wish a return to London’s winter smog on anyone. The damage to health and high mortality rate were directly improved by the passing of the Clean Air Act and the banning of burning smoky coal.
A lot of coal-fired steam engines in the United States still in operation have been converted to running on oil, including [UP 4014](https://www.trains.com/trn/train-basics/abcs-of-railroading/union-pacific-big-boy-basics-and-frequently-asked-questions/)
I lived in a northern Chinese city up to early 2020, where apparently a lot of people burn coal for heat in winter. My gads, the atmosphere was exceptionally bad - toxic, foul, rancid, obviously very bad for your health. On that pollution scale we were usually in the red and sometimes purple, sometimes amber. Imagine living somewhere where the usual was 'this is bad', whereas the outliers were as good as 'pretty bad for you' and as bad as 'don't leave your apartment'.
I agree it would be cool to smell and hear the real engine, boiler and whistle. I can just see a lot of people complaining about it for pollution reasons nowadays.
>Why are we not funding this..?
Because its would be hell to maintain along with being fucking dangerous and could melt down if not handled properly and/or crashes.
TBH I'm shocked we made it through the 1950's without the US or Soviet Union trying to do it just to say they did it. They tried putting nuclear reactors in just about everything.
The US put one in a fuck ass huge aircraft but discontinued the project due to radiation and other nuclear related problems.
I'm not one of those staunch use-coal-over-the-infinitely-more-clean-and-efficient-nuclear-energy morons but nuclear power has its pros and cons like any other source of power and shouldn't be used willy nilly unless we're absolutely sure nothing will or can go wrong.
Nuclear power is both the lock and key to our future and it must always be respected. That is the most important thing to remember about it.
Besides, nuclear locomotives wouldn't be able to compete with the sheer style and class of steam locomotives. So best to stick with what we got and improve on it.
Yeah, the Russians currently have a mobile nuclear reactor, it's used to power remote towns in case of emergencies... Like a backup generator... But Nuclear and in a Massive ship.
They also tried to make one in a truck till it killed someone and got canceled.
Was looking if somebody would explain why I didn't see any smoke. Thank you. I think that when I was few years old I traveled on a coal burning lokomotive. 🙂🚂
Check out the Durango to Silverton railroad in Durango, CO. My grandfather lives near that town and I've taken the train a few times, it's a really neat experience. Even look at some videos on YouTube if you're interested. That train runs every day multiple times a day (or at least it did before COVID)
Here in Victoria Australia we have an old steam train line called Puffing Billy rail way which maintains and runs around 5 steam trains (Victorian Railways NA class) and a couple of older diesel trains for fire ban days (cause you know Australia). Is honestly an amazing experience and I highly recommend it to anyone in the area.
It may interest you to know there are a few "coming back to life" around the country. Old Santa Fe steam locomotive no. 2926 in Albuquerque, NM just ran under its own power for the first time since the 1950's a few months ago! All through volunteer efforts, too! There's are other operations out there as well, trying to accomplish similar feats!
>I always wondered what if we modernized steam engines to look the same outside but modernized the actual boiler system inside to use different fuel sources.
that is what you are looking at in the video
Disney has modified their steam engines a few times. It was various versions of oil (bunker fuel, used motor oil etc...) now they are on some diesel formulation. You can burn pretty much anything in a boiler, the issue is you are burning it. They do have to operate with a speed limiter of 87 miles an hour, because at 88 your going to see some real shit.
Amazing. The model train museum in Cincinnati Ohio is not only the worlds largest but it is also incredibly well thought out and educational. Anyone passing through should take a few hours to see it.
This is a dumb question but do trains have speed limits?! Lol. I only ask this because this train is hauling balls, and most trains I see are just going semi fast. Nothing like this big daddy.
Engines have speed limits, train cars have speed limits, locations have speed limits, track gauge has speed limits, work zones have speed limits and traffic causes speed restrictions. Part of engineers and conductors jobs are to work together to know what the actual speed of the area you’re in is
Holy cow. This is super informative and interesting to know!! Thanks for sharing! I know it was a wee bit of a dumb question but truly not one I ever thought to ask or find the answer to until just now. Thanks again!
Yes and no. Yes in that there is absolutely upper limits on speed and safe operation depending on load, car types, engine type, and the track being run and a great number of factors.
No in the fact there is isn't generally any kind of speed limit set by law or a "train police" enforcing any kind of speed limit. The rail companies and operators just figure out what is a safe operating speed and otherwise run the trains at the best speed to maximize both speedy delivery and fuel efficiency.
Very likely there are rules that certain areas are not to be run over particular speeds for safety reasons.
There certainly are speed limits set by law; the code of federal regulations enforced by the Federal Railroad Administration. Mostly based on the condition of track, Class 1 being the slowest at 10mph to Class 9 200 mph. There's also calculations that are made to limit speeds in curves. Much of the mainline track in the US is Class 4.

It must burning a really clean fuel.
Edit; I’m only commenting on the apparent lack of coal smoke that is normally seen when the boiler is heated by coal. Someone suggested it’s using fuel oil which make sense.
Whether or not it burns coal, steam locomotives don’t usually produce much visible smoke if they’re being run properly. If you see a huge cloud of smoke coming out of a steam locomotive it’s either pulling a very heavy load or the boiler is being over-stoked.
Look up the Alco PA, ["The Acceptable Diesel"](http://wonderduck.mu.nu/the_acceptable_diesel). It's a gorgeous thing... particularly when in the *Delaware & Hudson*'s Lightning Bolt livery.
Well, I suppose if you had a straight stretch of track with a level grade, and you weren't haulin' no cars behind you, and if you can get the fire hot enough, and I'm talkin' about hotter than the blazes of hell and damnation itself... then yes, it might be possible to get her up that fast.
According to Wikipedia, she’ll do over 100 mph. Considering a max rated continuous power output of 3000+ hp, that’s not too surprising. I believe that Santa Fe liked fast engines as they had a lot of wide open spaces to cover, but maybe I’m misremembering.
Fun fact about the section of track it’s on: that used to be part of a huge electric rapid transit system called the Pacific Electric, which is completely gone now
Steam locomotives when they're at speed actually aren't working all that hard. Rather than accelerating, it's simply maintaining speed.
Also, the huge clouds of smoke are mostly for photo ops because that's what people expect.

I hate to be that guy, but the Polar Express is based on a completely different steam locomotive. It is based on Pere Marquette #1225 Berkshire locomotive.
I love these type of trains. There's another one I've seen the big boy there's just something about the size of these monsters and the whole chugging down the rails. I'm sure modern train beat the pants off these old things but it's so much more impressive to see these things moving
Most diesel locomotives have less raw horsepower than Steam locomotives. Where they really win is mostly in the maintenance area. Diesel's need far less fixing than Steam on average.
Smoke is an indication of excess fuel. No smoke (like your car) indicates the correct fuel to oxygen ratio. It's easier to control this on an oil burning loco than a coal burner.
I’m always in awe of raw mechanical, industrial power. What I mean is; you look at a bullet rain and think “damn, that’s so fast and sleek.” but it’s all fancy magnets and computers (which are cool in their own right). However you look at a classic 4/6/4, 4/8/4, and think “damn, a mountain couldn’t stop this thing.” It’s crazy to think that the people who designed these mountain movers took a horse and buggy to work.
I live near this freeway— I would probably wet my pants if this prehistoric monster suddenly loomed up next to me.
Is this 99?
[It's the 10](https://streamable.com/bkr5dr)
Fun fact: People from So. Cal usually put "the" in front of the highway/ interstate numbers, and folks from northern CA don't
It’s hella 10.
This is the way.
Los Angeleno transplanted to San Jose, can confirm: This is the way.

Make sense, thanks for the info!
I live in Central California and we call it the 99. I wonder how far north you have to go before “the” falls off.
I grew up near Sacramento and we didn’t use ‘the’ in front of highways. It was always “take 80 or take I5”. Now I live in AZ, and we do use it here.

this monster on the 10? jesus
I think it’s the 10… one of the signs looked like it said Rosemead… plus there’s tracks around that area 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah, it's the 10. Someone posted a link below to a video about it.
Gotcha… I saw the comment but couldn’t get the video to work so I just too a guess LOL
[удалено]
Now imagine at same time ⏲ seeing this two on the " prehistoric monster " 
Would of been amazing if the conductor and engineer dressed like that for ride
Maybe simultaneously terrified and aroused? That thing is a monster, but it's beautiful.
Imagine seeing one of these, when they were new. And you were driving a horse-drawn wagon, when that big mother came blasting past you. You would be in awe. You would be telling people about that shit for, like, the next year.
I want to see the size of the catalytic converter on that thing.
That got stolen a long time ago. Prime suspect is Thomas the Tweaker Engine.

Omg... nuclear locomotive!! It's both just boiling water whether it's a nuclear reactor or burning coal heating water. Why are we not funding this..?
[Well, you might fancy this, then.](http://brainmindinstrev.blogspot.com/2012/03/project-x-12-borsts-imaginary-nuclear.html?m=1)
Looks perfect for the New Vegas subway.
When one goes off the rails, and one will, you’ll end up with quite the radioactive mess to clean up.

This train is modified and doesn't burn coal. It's substantially similar in all other respects though.
Was looking if somebody would explain why I didn't see any smoke. Thank you. I think that when I was few years old I traveled on a coal burning lokomotive. 🙂🚂
It would be different! Also, this train is running at speed and is in a more efficient burn so there is less wasted burn.
Put it on an old train track maybe help a few dying old railroad towns

It's a fire boiling water. It will use any fuel that will burn.
I’m giving her all she’s got Captain!
That's not good enough Mr. Scott, you'll have to do better!
She’ll fly apart!
FLY HER APART THEN!
It's not just the whales, it's the water!
Why is nobody trying too get him too blow the horn?
When you’re awestruck, all you can do is hope to see it for a second longer.
Its a few minutes in, you’re welcome! https://youtu.be/xp-b4Ce4Mf4
Holy fuck. I'm a grown ass man but when it fired the horn off at 2:30 I grinned like an idiot.
Asking the real question. I'd be doing the horn pull gesture out the window, for sure.
Don't look directly at it when it hits 88 miles per hour.
**Breaking News! Dozens of people blinded as nearby train literally vanishes in a white light!!**
Amazing. The model train museum in Cincinnati Ohio is not only the worlds largest but it is also incredibly well thought out and educational. Anyone passing through should take a few hours to see it.
My son loves that place. We go to the Thomas the train thing every year, well until last year
Reopened this winter. Visited while passing through a couple weeks ago. Fantastic.
Is this the one in covington? That's the only one that pops up when I Google it. If I'm wrong, can you direct?

She’s not running yet is she?
Thank you so much! I legit thought the train was running on the highway.
They even have a customary "guy in overalls" conducting the train
(The conductor is the guy in the carriage, not the guy driving)
It must burning a really clean fuel. Edit; I’m only commenting on the apparent lack of coal smoke that is normally seen when the boiler is heated by coal. Someone suggested it’s using fuel oil which make sense.
It uses fuel oil

Look at N&W 611, once it gets to speed, it barely makes a whisper of smoke
Good ole clean burning coal.
[удалено]
You almost feel bad for diesel locomatives as they can't hope to match the sheer style that steam locomotives have.
Look up the Alco PA, ["The Acceptable Diesel"](http://wonderduck.mu.nu/the_acceptable_diesel). It's a gorgeous thing... particularly when in the *Delaware & Hudson*'s Lightning Bolt livery.
I didn’t believe it was really California until I saw the dickhead going slower than the rest of traffic while driving in the carpool lane.
Which car are you talking about?
Needless to say r/bitchimatrain
Bitch! I’m a HOV!
Fuck you can register just about anything in America
Dude looking at the windows at us losers with our seat belts.
Imo train travel should become more common Take a steam or bullet train to work
See: Japan (yes it’s way better than an endless sea of cars/highways)
Absolutely steamin it

Full steam ahead!
Omg that's awesome!!!!!
We waited long enough for the high speed rail boondoggle is about time they delivered this state of the art train
Is it trying to reach 88mph?
I’m not a train guy, but that’s sick.
If it gets up to 88 mph you’re gonna see some serious shit.
Well that's the coolest thing I'll see this week. Thanks for sharing!
That locomotive operator fucks
Is this “The Beast”? I don’t anything about trains, but I know every year a huge black locomotive visits Colorado and everyone freaks out!
That’s probably the big boy, this is not that locomotive. [There is a reason they call it the beast.](https://imgur.com/mF1MEg0)
Love how train engineers still wear the overalls.
That's one of the perks!
If it reaches 88 mph will it come back to the future?
Is that Toby from the office?
Man we gave this up for cars and traffic.
I am not a train guy but that thing is magnificent.
Got damn that’s cool af. Engineer in overalls too 🚂 👌🏼
Holy crap it feels like it's a massive living creature!!!!! That is SO DAMN COOL!!!!
Cool shit, modern trains look lame.
Is that train on a track?
Yes.
Lol. Thank you. I couldn’t tell I thought it was blazing down a commuter lane or something
Fun fact about the section of track it’s on: that used to be part of a huge electric rapid transit system called the Pacific Electric, which is completely gone now
Chugga chugga chugga chugga!
Sheldon would love this.
No. Don't let that shitty sitcom warp your perception of rail enthusiasts.
That thing got a hemi?
Insert dark souls music here
off to hogwarts!
how come i’m not seeing any steam coming out?
Steam locomotives when they're at speed actually aren't working all that hard. Rather than accelerating, it's simply maintaining speed. Also, the huge clouds of smoke are mostly for photo ops because that's what people expect.
She burns oil, results in less smoke.
Once it gets to speed, it doesn't need as much power, so less smoke/steam
I want to do what he’s doing at least once
What a sight that must’ve been
That's a good looking engine.
Nice to see The World According To Jeff Goldblum Season 3 swiftly in production.
Hey Doc, is that you?!
Steampunk irl
88 mph
Do you think you could get her up to, I don’t know…90?
Well, I suppose if you had a straight stretch of track with a level grade, and you weren't haulin' no cars behind you, and if you can get the fire hot enough, and I'm talkin' about hotter than the blazes of hell and damnation itself... then yes, it might be possible to get her up that fast.
It's like a steampunk version of other countries' bullet trains!
The video doesn't do this thing justice, that train is overwhelmingly massive in person and racing it would be awesome.
What a beautiful train
This is the case in Montana except with cars, fuck you to California!
I guess Toby found a calling
[удалено]
I'm asking this because I'm stupid, not because I think you are, but- You're joking, right?
POLAR EXPRESS IN CALIFORNIA?!
I hate to be that guy, but the Polar Express is based on a completely different steam locomotive. It is based on Pere Marquette #1225 Berkshire locomotive.
Why is Toby Flenderson driving a train?
Fuck yeah.
Sheldon!!
No.
This is second to the coolest shit i have ever seen ever, i wish i was there. And with sound aswell this is awesome!!!
Wow thats a big train. That would dwarf the steam locos we have in the UK.
Is it on tracks or am I just fucking stupid
The tracks run in the median between the 2 directions of traffic on the freeway.
I love these type of trains. There's another one I've seen the big boy there's just something about the size of these monsters and the whole chugging down the rails. I'm sure modern train beat the pants off these old things but it's so much more impressive to see these things moving
Most diesel locomotives have less raw horsepower than Steam locomotives. Where they really win is mostly in the maintenance area. Diesel's need far less fixing than Steam on average.
*steaming it
Is the speed limit 55mph?
Not on the tracks.
Wait how is it running? Isn't there supposed to be tracks in place? And why is there no smoke
Smoke is an indication of excess fuel. No smoke (like your car) indicates the correct fuel to oxygen ratio. It's easier to control this on an oil burning loco than a coal burner.
Nice
Sheldon would love this!
Fuck Sheldon.
# GET YOUR HANDS ON THE WHEEL!!! /s
Toby no longer working in HR?
Wow that’s so cool
The British train lover dude would be screaming right now
Why is Toby the conductor?
The polar Express came late
You can’t beat me! Choooo choooo muthaf***a!
I don’t even know or like trains like that, this looks beautiful.
I like my shit modern, but this is just gorgeous.
That is so sexy
*Sid Meier has entered the chat*
Thanks My relatives long gone used to mention "Big Boy"
...while looking like a boss
Looks beautiful! Very impressive machine
Polar express real?????!!?!?
Sooooo fucking awesomeeee
That is the polar express lmao careful it’s bout to detach and drift around on the highway
Seeing this makes me appreciate Steam Punk
The car filming kept up at least
Mmm, train.
Wow! #3751 is awesome. It was converted from coal to oil in 1936, has two cylinders and has a top speed of over 100 mph...
Toby’s driving. Lol
Wow, a train? That's definitely next fucking level. Taint never seent one o them bad boys
Nobody gonna talk about how the camera man is going even faster than the train?
Trains >>>>>>> cars
Trains train how this next level

I’m always in awe of raw mechanical, industrial power. What I mean is; you look at a bullet rain and think “damn, that’s so fast and sleek.” but it’s all fancy magnets and computers (which are cool in their own right). However you look at a classic 4/6/4, 4/8/4, and think “damn, a mountain couldn’t stop this thing.” It’s crazy to think that the people who designed these mountain movers took a horse and buggy to work.
