5:38 The Soviet jet rail car was inspired by the New York Central's M-497 "Black Beetle". On July 23, 1966, the M-497 reached a speed of 183.68 mph, an American rail speed record that still stands today. Basically they took a twin jet pod from a B-36 bomber and strapped it onto the roof of an ordinary Budd RDC-3 rail car and ran it on ordinary jointed rail track. Which is actually kind of nuts.
There are some huge scrapyards in hungary. Every big station have huge scrapyards, but the biggest is at the railway museum. So we can say Hungary is the biggest railway museum.
There are 6 "abandoned" KCS FP9 A and B units in my hometown on and isolated run of track back in some woods. The fact that they are hidden by the trees and such is what saved them from metal thieves and vandals.
@@sniperdafox7372 There is a REASON I didnt give a general location. With google maps and such today, it would be east to find them with a satellite view if people knew a general area to look at.
Track 61 is a storage track for Grand Central. It’s not part of the subway. The car that was parked there (and is now at the Danbury Railroad museum) was never special. It was just a baggage car that was part of the crane train responsible for cleaning up derailments in the tunnel.
Why am I not surprised that America again washed its hands of responsibility and abandoned the last train wreck. They did the same with the Pacific island nuclear test sites and numerous other places around the world. As long as it was not in their backyard.
I wish people would get the facts right before upload on RUclips i think the people in Montana will be surprised . The scrap yard was in Barrie South Wales and open in 1957 not in Leicester
Vic Berry actually did have a scrapyard in Leicester, as well as the more famous one in Barry. Just so you know, I lived in "Liechester" from 1984 until 1999.
All of these railways are from a very recent civilization that dissapeared. I don't have the answers. There is something very fishy about our history, and we are not being told about it.
It's because the Class 25s had Sulzer engines and that classified them as Type 2s along with the Class 24s, Class 26s, Class 27s and Class 33s which all had Sulzer engines and a Bo-Bo configuration.
You might want to check the definition of "Abandoned": To give up with the intent to never again claim a right or interest in. The caboose you showed obviously is not only owned but still in use as lodging business. The DT&I railroad tho having some track abandoned is still mostly still in use under Indiana & Ohio name. The narrow gauge museum in Colorado is obviously a going concern operated by a group for the public to enjoy. You should be more careful with you statements as many ding dongs believing something "abandoned" means they can help themselves to anything they want and have caused much vandalism to privately or publicly owned property.
If I was born back in the day I would drop the finger to those people cannot five windows trains and bales down best we saw them because I love kind specially British ones and how long would they do that to Beaufort history
I searched it up and was this rail road Built in 1846 or 1848 it’s really stressing me out because in Wikipedia it says it was built in 1846 but you say it was built in 1848 and I’m confused
They are not steam trains, they are steam locomotives. Train implies that there is more than the locomotive being pulled. Also mallets are not pronounced with a hard T at the end, but rather the T is silent, and it's pronounced with a Long A sound. The word Mallet (Mallay) is french.

Wow that so cool I love it I love train
I feel trains would be awesome to fix up to live in.
What about the Talyllyn Railway, it has amazing narrow gauge engines with their own stories and inclusion in the Thomas and Friends books.
“Even the rails date back to the 19th century” let’s be honest the whole British network dates back to the 19th century
I know right
Where’s Barry island it had hundreds of steam engines in it
Ireland here, at least you have a rail network.
@@philipmcdonagh1094 Ireland doesn’t have a network?
@@lucasmonkey913 Well i wouldn't go as far as to call it a network, the word implies something that works..

No such place.
For the third one it is not a subway line and the rail car will never be used in regular service again

The engineers don't wave from the trains anymore, not like they did back in 1954, only for the cellphones I guess!
8:45 To help you out, pronounce the place as 'Less-ter', or at least British pronouncing of the place, so you know. :)

That caboose is not left behind it was made so if they want to sleep they can go there

It is not a Train it is a lokomotivet
track 64 was used for only FDR
'Leicester' (in the United Kingdom), is pronounced 'Lester'.
Montana is bordering Canada. I’ve tried to find a Montana Canada to find this train hotel but I’m finding nothing.
What are you talking about all the steam engines were replaced by br Diesels
In Wales there is a 40 mile long narrow gauge railway
Maybe?
Cheaper? haha here a trainticket is much more expensive then to drive by car!

Leicester is pronounced Lester, please check pronunciation first before commentating
Nearly every word you just said was wrong
“Train” 😒
Leicester is pronounced "lester"
Well, not all locomotive and carriges will come to the "end of the line"
Some of these aren’t even abandoned
"Trains come to die" and then he shows locomotives being cut up!

I searched it up and was this rail road Built in 1846 or 1848 it’s really stressing me out because in Wikipedia it says it was built in 1846 but you say it was built in 1848 and I’m confused
No cursing in the comments
Also if you’re wondering what river and I’m talking about I’m talking about the Toledo rail road
In fact Wikipedia says nothing about 1848
Wikipedia in general isn’t a great resource. Try to find a railroad history book that covers your particular railroad.
Crap
