I think cool video 😅

I was across the the freewary in the first shot

From what I know, 4014 is capable of pulling long heavy trains.

Skip to 8:12

Wish they would bring back 3985

Wow! Just, wow!❤

Some of those containers seem to be power units. Never seen that before. I guess they are powering reefer containers? I always thought the reefer containers were self powered?

Way too much pollution..whats going on?

What a shame they put the deisel engine with these steam trains. I am not in need of anyone expaining to me why that is, so dont do it. Get rid of the deisel engines for these steam trains. Dull stuff

Come see lucastrainverse!🎉

Great vantage point. both 4014 and the diesel were working on the grade

What’s with the gay guy dancing?

I wonder if they’ll do further modifications to the oil firing configuration in the fire box. She runs a bit Smokey when it’s working hard.

I only saw this while rewatching at 8:33 but take a look at the roof of the front of the fifth passenger car, the “Pony Express. Just above where the front bogie is, see that object next to the roof seam? That’s the drone that crashed/landed on/into the train in Colfax and was removed for a grease stop at Emigrant Gap. I’d love to see that footage! Ten dollars monopoly currency to whoever uploads it to RUclips.

That’s quite something!

UP 1983 should not be throwing black smoke. That engine is 19 years old, looks pretty but needs help. This territory was SP Cab Forward’s domain. They won’t run 4014 hard through tunnels, snow sheds whatever else up there so as to not scald the crew.

Imagine riding a passenger train and the Big Boy just randomly passes you going the other direction.

Great vid🙏🙏 But interesting the in every vid of the big boy…. the diesel is flat out/ near flat out on a relatively small train

That diesel is working hard

1:21 Foamer alert!

Until I watched the Big Boy crossing the trestle over I-80 at Auburn, I had never appreciated how massive that structure is. It appears to be seriously overbuilt, not a bad thing I guess? Your sound in the last sequence is great.

The 1st Big Boy under steam over Donner Pass! It’s incredible to see 4014 traveling over SP territory. It’s pretty interesting that WP wanted to add Big Boys to their steam fleet, but didn’t order them in favor of diesels.

11:00 I saw diesel locomotive helper emiss smoke. Does it help Big Boy 4014 pull the train?

Big Boy finally got a real workout after multiple journeys in flatter country! Impressive exhaust and sounds to say the least.

I saw the train Fri. 7/12/2024 In Roseville, CA. With videos like yours I can actually hear the locomotive working. Great video!

That Stack Talk is Beautiful Highball Up 4014🚂🚃🚃🚃🔥

Nice video my friend

There were countless niggling problems like this that take to work them out. Going to the moon we faced these sort of things. We fixed them; we didn't say "let's not go to the moon".

You'll be shocked to learn that equipment needed for repairing tracks can get to a site using roads.

The railroad is easy. If you listen to your people you win. Bad apples in all professions, but looser regulations kill people. Not just employees but also towns... including those that may have missed a shipment to provide livelihoods to workers in said towns

Bravo! You've really impressed me.

Benefits with those trains in fall 2024: express train SF to SJ in under 1h / local service 75 minutes insted of 100 / half-hour service during weekends & off-peak / free wi-fi 👍🚄 (source: online community meeting video from Caltrain)

I think every American railroad should see CalTrain for ideas for the future!..

As a European, I'd like to note that a lot of the new train sets aren't going to replacing existing train sets but to expanding service

Watched it to the end; good job on choosing which points to emphasize. Tip #4 cannot be overstated! One thing I missed was a honest depiction of the potentially disorienting flow of masses rushing to and from platforms, especially in major transit hubs like Frankfurt or Cologne - never mind the necessity of navigating within those cities that have separate train stations serving national and international destinations. Have a nice one ;D

0:10 yay my home city :D On topic: I forgot who said it but, looking at eg Switzerland, it rings rather true: "A wealthy nation isn't one where everyone owns a car but where even the rich travel by public transport."

it is the most civilized way of travel

So they ignored a hot box? Negligence. Complete and utter negligence on NS's part.

Very unique footy.👌

Hunter Harrison destroyed the RR industry.

This is solen ngl

When was this

Damn straight. Common sense, correct, direct information. This is going on in canada too.

bro this is a masterpiece

CalCrash

PR only means a train leaves the yard within a window of time each day. The RR doesn't care about track speed,and never did on most frieght. The RR wouldn't care about crossings in iowa,they might not even push out a siding on the subdivision,because it's perfect conditions to run long trains.

Ngl im gonna miss the old fleet but alas all good things must come to an end

Lame, I want the classic f40s and MP36 with their BBL cars and gallery cars

BNSF is starting to try PSR eh?

I’m gonna miss the old ones😢
