  • Steam locomotives are a rare sight in the 21st Century, but it is even more unusual to see two of them running together! In this video, we will see several different trains being pulled by two steam locomotives. We will visit several different railroads to see locomotives big and small as they work together to pull trains down the line. All aboard!

    Modern trains are press a button and the engine is ignited, never knew LOCOMOTIVE TRAINS were that much of steam carriers, plus you have to fill the water chamber fully, or create a fire in one of the furnaces. Just the locomotive horn sound really shows how people in the older centuries were geniuses to build these steam machines. Liked your video, amazing

    I’ve adored steam trains since I was little. In fact I got a new train set every Xmas because the previous year’s was worn out from the amount of fun I’d had with it. I’m female by the way. A few years back I was the proud owner of 120 acres in country Australia. It was very frustrating that I couldn’t afford to put a train track around it, plus the cost of the train itself. I had to make do with the roos & the wild deer as entertainment instead. Sometimes when I’m reminiscing I realise what a great life I’ve lived. & watching these marvellous videos makes me happy. Very happy.

      That's why I love reading old interviews with steam engineers. ALL of them made the same metaphor: a steam engine is like a living, breathing entity. Not a mere machine, but an ANIMAL, and one that they had to learn to tame. ❤

      @@TheCuratorIsHere OP is just differentiating steam engines from internal combustion engines. Of course both involve combustion.. simple matter of nomenclature. (Also you know what else they have? Brakes. Which you might want to pump on your ACKCHYUALLY.)

      A steam engine is still a combustion engine. Only that it is an external combustion engine, and the combustion happens outside of the cylinder. They still have burning coal, wood, and other combustibles.

A consist of two steam locomotives would be distinctly unusual in North America today: for starters there isn't the coaling and watering infrastructure.

    Hello Mike! I am currently in the process of applying to Berklee College of music for film scoring. I am really looking to do a video on trains that I would add music to. I am not a professional videographer and am looking for some people who either could make some footage for me or lend me some. The project would not be for profit at all, just for admittance into the college. Do you think I could potentially use some of your footage to compile a 5 to 6 minute video or so? The project has to be between 3 to 10 minutes long. If you could at least possibly tell me of where I could find somebody who does good train videos who work with me, that would be great if you cannot let me use your footage. I appreciate your time! Thank you.
