  • On Monday, June 10, 2019, I rode the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. Locomotive 476 was the engine chosen to pull our train. 476 put on a great show and the ride was spectacular! What I find amazing is how back in 2015, I went into 476's cab when it was on display not knowing that 4 short years later I would ride behind it. I would never have thought it would have even been restored! Hop on the Silverton Train as it takes us up the Animas Canyon from Durango to Silverton and return!
    Disclaimer: I apologize for the long length of the video and the shakiness. I did not want to separate the video into multiple segments because it would not flow well. Since the video is long, I recommend watching it in multiple sittings if you choose to do so. It is hard holding a big DSLR camera with a rocking train and zoomed in far to show things far away, thus causing shaking.

    Dadgum! You had me beat to Durango by just a month! I was headed by 476 and 473 myself, and had a great time! I’m glad you got to go too, and see this historic line!

    I realy enjoyed seeing the 476 engine in motion. Starting and backing up. Great train action.The 476 is one nice looking engine. It has a great engineering design to it. It would be nice if Lionel would add the engine to it's line. Thanks for sharing one great looking engine.

      Thank you Nick! I really appreciate it! I agree, 476 is very pretty. ALCO designer it well. I agree. Lionel needs more engines like this. Thanks again!

      Ford Lover it really is. The video here doesn’t do justice to how beautiful it really is. You’re limited with only what I showed with the lens and the parts I shot. If I were you, go now, you never know when it might be too late. Especially with the fire, lawsuit, and 493’s conversion to oil. You really don’t know how long you have that it’s like this.

      They also restrict speeds to about 6 MPH on the highland area due to how close to the edge and how much the cars tend to rock when at higher speeds

      I’ll might get me a camera like that when I can afford it, right now I have SONY camera, and I am looking into to find me a stand for my camera

    • @MPT_Productions
      @MPT_Productions  5 лет назад

      cld1522 I use a magnus VT-350. It’s perfect. Pretty whatever height you want it can go to and when the train goes by the camera won’t shake at all. I think I got a tiny bit of movement on one shot with it. That’s basically it though. It may be good to start with something a little cheaper and work you’re way up. This is one of the best DSLR’s out there from what I’ve read and based on what I’ve seen with this camera I agree, but you don’t have to get a camera as expensive as me. A couple hundred dollar (500-900) won’t be bad either. All up to you, and do the research!
