  • Some scenes of RGS 41 on it's final test run on the Durango & Silverton. After a snowstorm passed through the San Juan Mountains, the C-19 consolidation took a 4-car train up to Cascade Canyon, with employees invited to ride. Owned by Knotts Berry Farm in California, the locomotive was rebuilt in the D&S shop, arriving in Durango in February of 2022. The locomotive was returned to steam in November of 2023 and it ran a few test trips on the D&S before being trucked back to Knotts.

    It is so awesome to see and hear a C-19 going like it's hauling the mail

    A fantastic winter video, excellently filmed with the steam locomotive C-19 #41 and its train in the beautiful landscape. Thanks for showing and have a nice weekend. Best regards.

      Wouldn’t that be nice? So nice to see it run through the Colorado mountains like in the Rio Grande Southern days.

    Rio Grande Southern #41 (Built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1881), running at the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad in the winter.

    Great video, thanks! Why does the steam change color? Usually it's pure white but sometimes it's gray or almost black. Are they changing the fuel?

    • @Steamtrainvideos
      @Steamtrainvideos  Год назад +2

      White is the steam condensing as it leaves the boiler. It's much more obvious on a cold or damp day. Gray or black is smoke. Usually from some un-burned fuel going up the stack, but on an oil burner like this it can be accumulated soot being released when the crew "sands the flues." The fireman will occasionally scoop some sand in the firebox when the locomotive is working hard. The sand gets sucked through the flues, scours the accumulated soot from the fire off the inside of the tubes, and then it goes out the stack. As soot accumulates inside the tubes/flues, it makes the heat transfer less efficient. So "sanding the flues" is a regular procedure on an oil burner. Coal burners don't need this because the cinders in the coal perform this function already. Hope this helps.

    They need to re-lay the rails on the RGS and Monarch Branch.

      @@brianfalzon6739 I'm just musing about what they should do in the future. Imagine how much tourism would increase if they had those White Pass diesels roaring up the sharp curves to the old limestone mine or RGS 41 trundling down home rails.

    If only they can truck it to the Cumbres and get a fake 455 and the 20 from CRM, plus a goose.
    The ultimate RGS show.
