    Steam and diesel working together! I love seeing this everytime! =D What's even more ironic is seeing a GP30 lead an old steam locomotive; basically symbolizing the demise of steam, and the fact that I've always been more of a diesel kind of guy!

      I like to think that it’s actually 729 being pulled from storage to help a stalled freight train.

    On the note of rare horn configurations, consider Grafton and Upton 1500. A former Bay Colony CF7 originally built in 1952 and refurbished at the ATSF Cleburne shops in the 1980s. This rare locomotive is complimented by a P5 on the conductor's side and an A200 used only for railfans on the engineer's side. Each horn is individually mounted and aired.

    • @PennRailVideos
      @PennRailVideos  10 лет назад +1

      This isn't quite the same. With this horn, both airlines are used when the engineer pulls the valve, this the "split" manifold. That engine would have two separate mounts and two separate manifolds. That set-up isn't common, but not impossible to find either. I believe Amtrak had some of their Leslie SL4T mounts on a "split" manifold.

    • @burdizdawurd1516Official
      @burdizdawurd1516Official 10 лет назад +1

      But still the chances of finding something with a split manifold or multiple horns is rare to begin with. The horn sounds good anyway.

    • @Cnw8701
      @Cnw8701 9 лет назад

      There's actually quite a few GP7's, GP9's, and other units preserved at museums or operating on tourist railroads that have two or multiple seperate horns. LM&M 55 in Ohio, some of the geeps at the Niles Canyon/Pamona museum in California, and the GP7 unit at the Southeastern Railway Museum in Georgia.

    • @Cnw8701
      @Cnw8701 9 лет назад

      +Penn Rail Videos Actually, the SL-4T was originally offered as a split manifold after Leslie and Amtrak realized that they were more prone to fouling than other horn models. Ironically, like the horn, the locomotives in which these horns were placed (the SDP40F's) were just as plagued!

    love the sound in the introduction. but i listen with headphones and had it turned onto loud. fro ma different episode. THIS time it nearly threw me out of the chair, it was so loud, great stereo sound though! and great video quality too! into Minute 7.19, what the hell are they burning, with so much black smoke? heavy fuel oil that the ships even wont take on anymore?

  • @williambryant5946
    @williambryant5946 5 лет назад

    This might be the dumbest question ever but I don't know the answer and I'm going to ask. What is the purpose for the pipe under the tender blowing out all that steam? I'd imagine there's some reason for it other than just show. I know the packing on the piston rod, and maybe valve rod too, on the fireman's side is leaking like a sieve. I love the way the exhaust of a steam locomotive looks in very cold weather. At the beginning of this video the steam mixed with the smoke was great looking. Nice video. I enjoyed it very much! 👍

    • @NERRP2017
      @NERRP2017 3 года назад

      Possibly steam from the brake line for the engine leaking out

    • @williambryant5946
      @williambryant5946 3 года назад

      I think I figured out what it might be. Maybe it's a steam pipe that would have went back to coaches for heating in the steam radiators and they have it open for some reason like just for show or maybe the valve is broke that controlled it and they haven't been able to fix it yet.

    • @NERRP2017
      @NERRP2017 3 года назад

      Probs right which it will be fixed while 734 is under its 1472 day fra mandated boiler inspection

      When a fireman, he properly fired the locomotive, saving coal an producing little smoke. Over firing needlessly coats the firetubes with soot which acts as an insulatoreducing heat getting to the water and lowering the already-poor efficiency.

      Penn Rail Videos So thats why it says Lerro Productions? But even so, shouldn't it have Penn Rail Videos instead though I guess leaving Lerro Productions does give credit for hosting the charter and good advertisement. None the less nice video. I miss 734 though.
