ATSF 3751 was the first locomotive I throttle jerk in 1945, I remember when the tender was replaced to handle coal oil. This old Baldwin has a lot of memories, glad to see her operating again. Don :-)
A great video!! LOVE seeing the double-header -- and the 4960's whistle is sweet! And it's good to read memories in this Comments section from a guy who actually was a hoghead on her back in the day. ATSF 3751 LIVES! :)
Gaston Forde it’s called dynamic braking,which is mandated by law and electric generation.the old steamers had friction braking only.not permissible by today’s standards
