Hey just me but you channel description should be I like trains
and the 2101 rusts away with no care done to it
Yeah, it's pretty sad
Atleast 2102 is running.
@@Frances_Network_Production "At least 2102 is running" is no excuse to the neglect and disrepair that is being done to the 2101. yes, while it is good to see 2102 running and 2100 on its way to that, there is no excuse for what the B&O museum is doing to 2101.
I wouldn't blame them for not wanting to mess with it. A fire like that on the outside of a steam locomotive could have easily weakened the boiler, making it more susceptible to fatigue failure. Even if they did a complete check of the boiler for cracks, it won't tell them what areas of steel have been embrittled by the rapid temperature change. It's at best, an art piece for whoever's got the money and storage space to try and visually restore it.
@@jacobrzeszewski6527 It's still disappointing to see it being neglected and in disrepair, I'm sure they could fix it up somehow, they have the money they're just not willing to spend it on the things that are actually interesting and important pieces of history.
My grandfather C.W.,"Bud"Phillips was one of the engineers that drove 2101 as the Chessie steam special. He worked for Chessie for 47 years
That's so cool!
I remember when that happened. I had just rode the Chessie steam Special shortly before that. I rode behind her from Cincinnati to Chillicothe Ohio and back. That was a great trip and I have pictures that I took
❤😢
Keep in mind that multiple D&S locomotives were caught in a roundhouse fire around 1989 and all were rebuilt and placed back into service.
Just because it was in a fire does not mean it can't be rebuilt
All it matters is how hot the fire got and if it was hot enough it's only restorable for looks.
I talked to Ross Rowland about this, Apparently the roundhouse fire was caused by an electrical short but some claims state it was arson.
It was arson. I have photos here and the remains were still smoldering.
....hey now southern Pacific told me to do it
So are we going to ignore the fact that Steve Wickersham, one of the main engineers/fireman who worked on 2101 during the American Freedom Train and the Chessie Steam Special, stated in an article that the roundhouse fire was because of faulty wiring in the roof?
@@regularguy7266 I talked with Ross Rowland himself in a phone call, he confirmed it was electrical.
First-class recording,I like excellent,
very good work, great !
Kentucky roundhouse? I thought that’s what Dalton did In Roadhouse 😂😂❤
Dalton ga ?
@@DairyNSI thought he was supposed to be much taller
where is 2101 now ?
Located outside at the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Museum in Baltimore, Maryland.
Built by fire, almost died by fire. Ironic
Song: Rapture
Artist: Interworld
Would have been cool if they mechanically restored it but left the exterior and did like a haunted train excursion
that would probably cause an extreme danger due to the boiler jacket being burned off
Just so that everyone know, That the warnington ohio railroad museum It's in trouble all their trains are in dire need of help.
Kentucky fried locomotives😂
I bet the train has to say something 20l01:that fire was nothing
Booyah 👊🏽😁👍🏽🇺🇸
I thought the FRA was the steam excursion killer
Wow! 😮
I had never heard about this! What a shame. 😢
Maybe in Eastern US, but Union Pacific has now renewed 3 steam locks! 844, 3985, and the News Engine, the Challenger 4014! A HUGE ENGINE! GOOD LUCK IN RESTORATION OF ANY STEAM ENGINE! I HOPE THAT THEY RUN INTO THE 22nd Century! I WANT my great great grand Children to see the Durango & Silverton, Cumberland Road, and in New Mexico and other steam systems across the states anywhere they run! Enjoy, contribute cash if you can't pick u p a wrench or scrape some paint, or brush the rust off! History controls the innovation and history of the United States...Same goes with Airplanes. Electricity is a slaying and battery our economy! No electricity for another 100 years! > Technology not ready yet!
He says the sheds ended multiple heritage locks but later said only one had ended
They did find the 2101 was restorable but decided not to and then switch for the 614.
What program do you use to make your shorts? They look awesome.
Thank you! I use Adobe Premiere Pro.
@@Bennyboi_Very nice. Is there a specific effect to make the photos go from one side to the other like they do in your videos?
@@jack.stawasz Nope, just using key frames in the effects tab.
Eh. Insurance and bureaucracy have killed more excursion stars than any fire.
Sad aint it?
Lucky I wasnt there!
What happened to the other engines stored in the round house?
The fire probably barely damaged it mechanically. Just burned the paint off.
Wow amazing😍😊
That's Not Because Of The Boiler Explosion,
Thats Because Of Fire.
History: DO YOU THINK ANYONE WANTS A ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO THE FACE WHILE I'M WEARING THESE BAD BOYS!
Number 2101: *refuses*
Is that one of these Milwaukee Railroad locomotives?
It probably just burned the paint off they didnt even bithwr to see if it could still be run
Poor Reading #2101. They have no plans to restore the #2101 as of 2023
You seen the news recently
Yes i did. You do realize this comment was made 3 months ago.
Sounds like a Rockefeller "accident".
It was one locomotive goddam-💀
R.I.P 2101
Aircraft Carriers run on steam.
I thought 2101 went to the Reading and Northern
I subscribed!
I have seen it before in such sorry shape.
HEY Benny!
The arson was paid for by Ross Rowland.
Stupidest rumor for a mystery that was already solved. Ross loves all steam locomotives, which is why he restored some of them in the first place. If he was already thinking about replacing 2101 with 614 in the Chessies Excursions and Tours, then he could've just donated the locomotive or stored it somewhere else when the time was right. Steve Wickersham, one of the main engineers/fireman/machinists who worked on 2101 during the American Freedom Train and Chessie Steam Special, stated in a article that the roundhouse fire was because the faulty wiring inside of the roundhouse.
Shill detected.

If this is coal fired engine, can it be converted to natural gas to pollute less?
Last time a Reading T1 (like the engine in this video) was converted to oil they nearly toasted the firebox to the point of retiring the engine permanently. Thankfully the group restoring it remove that oil burning crap and have returned her to a proper anthracite burning engine once again.
Just note, if the stack has anything other than steam coming out of the stack, it’s either cleaning the tubes and flues with sand or they just got done loading the box with fuel for a climb or after a climb. Other factors also play there.
That's going to be a huge and very expensive insulated , impact resistant tank car you're going to need to safely carry all that liquidfied propane or liquidfied natural gas. In addition you would have to extensively change the entire firebox and water heating system. Easily $10, 000, 000+ USD for the special tank car to hold the liquified fuel $100,000,000 USD to Engineer, design, and implement the firebox and steam generation system.
No. They are actually studying the feasibility of it burning plastic bags, straws, cutlery ware, Styrofoam plates, and cups. The weight savings will be tremendous. Sea turtles with metal straws attached to their shells have been trained to push the oil based products into the firebox. Any incomplete combustion in the firebox will be reignited by the sea turtles pushing oily rags into the firebox, kept on hand for that purpose. The scientists discovered that Styrofoam products produce the most smoke, soot, and ash, so they recommended using those products to get the most dramatic results for any bystanders. More of a visual impact if you will. The fire will be kept burning regardless if the train will be used or not. A Gallup Pole found that most people love seeing all of that black smoke and soot as a reminder of better times and days. All of the spent fuel will be cleaned out of the firebox at the end of each day, and dumped into the nearest pond, stream or lake to keep costs down. If those aren't available, the fireman is required to take the used fuel and dump it into any sewer drain or manhole cover, since all cleanup of that water has already been paid for by idiotic storm water fees, environmental fees and the like. Trees that seem to be in the right-of-way, whether they are or not, will be cut down 100 yards away in each direction, to allow better airflow around the train to keep the black soot and smoke action in an upward motion. Over cutting of the trees also forces any "protected" species out, away from harm. Should the "protected" animal/bird/gnat/frog/ try to rebuild again within the area, giant Russian jet engines on railcars will be brought in to burn away anything within a 600 foot area. If needed, additional track will be laid to accommodate a wider area for the Russian jet burning railcars, to help encourage any wildlife to _move along_. I hope that helps answer your question.
@@coloradostrongbro what the fuck is that?
Also Simple solution: put steam trains back in production
Shut up hippie.
Ofc Ohio
😮 noooooooooooooooo💀
ho no
Pollution 100%%%%%😢😢😢😢😢
