    Glad you could get out a film this one JT! To the best of my knowledge, this train has since been replaced by the Greenbrier Express. A Shay now runs from Cass to Durbin. I hope to see number 6 doing its job soon. Great Video as Always!

    Another great video. This will be even better when they have finished restoring the line the whole distance. Love the sight of steam and the noise of the engine and the whistle. You Americans should be even more proud of these little "iron horses" than the massive "Big Boy" (which is also fabulous) . These old smaller steam locos and your railways (sorry railroads), are so important in your history of building the USA.

They now have two Excursions in Virginia now and trying to get a 4 8 4 Steam Engine to pull it .With Visits from the 611 to run through Ivy Tunnel every so often. Just can't wait for that. I hope it comes true!

    This actually looks a lot like the Wilmington and Western - that runs between the Greenbank station (beautiful historic building with a working semaphore signal!) and the Mt. Cuba picnic grove near the river. Occasionally they run to Hockessin, a rather yuppie town with a really nice restaurant trackside, and rarer still, past Hockessin to the hard stop at the end of the line.
    They run 0-6-0 stream, an Alco diesel and a Doodlebug of all things! Great little railroad. But they don't do what this one does - drop off the caboose on a siding as a camper for the night! That's a real neat idea.

    I have to wonder if I'm the only one here who actually rode behind WM #6 when the original line was still in. Yeah, I'll admit that I'm that old. The year after the track was washed out, I changed jobs which pretty much put a stop to my trips as I could not have time off between June 1 and Nov 30.

    • @gravelydon7072
      @gravelydon7072 4 года назад

      It has a steam jet syphon. Think of it as an injector that is open on both ends and far simpler. You see the steam come out at the very first which is creating a vacuum in the line to the creek. Once water gets to the unit, the steam then pushes the water on up the pipe and into the tank. No moving parts in it and only needs a valve to turn the steam on and off. Also called eductors or ejectors.
