Love your videos, so does my cat Mona. I put a train around my Christmas tree every year and the first year I had my cat she would meow at me to start the train and that is how I learned that she loves trains. But once Christmas was over I did not have space to keep my train out in my tiny apartment and it took me an hour to set up and take down. So when she wanted to play trains I tried train videos on RUclips and she would watch. She likes your videos the best and she comes running when she hears your voice on the Television and she ignores mine. Just thought you would enjoy the story.

Imagine that your boss told you last minute that you need to be at the Food Factory at the crack of dawn. Of course you couldn't find a train ticket at this time of night. All you found was a ticket on this shady ES&D rail operator you have never heard of. You show up, it's cold, it's raining, it's miserable. Then as you are boarding the train you notice a bunch of dangerous looking chemical cars on the back. And then you look up what ES&D means. Do you risk it for the chocolate biscuit, or you tell your boss to find someone else?
1:38:30 (ish) - I think I saw the water plug when you rode into the platform right atafter the switch between B1LP and B2LP. EDIT: yeah, I checked the replay (1:34:14) 2:07:10 (ish) - the spicy rocks you mentioned is likely Calcium carbide (CaC2). if it gets in contact with water it generates ethyne (C2H2), which is also commonly known as - surprise - Acetylen EDIT 2: thank you wikipedia - as a non native english speaker with no knowledge of chemistry vocabulary at all it would be nearly impossible to write this ;-)
About the tunnels: I was once in a worktrain, on an open platform of a stone/gravel wagon pretty far from the engine. It was a sunny day so i had no headlight.The wagons lights and they also blocked the light from the engine. We came to a tunnel and I had newer been to a train tunnel before. All of a sudden complete darkness. I could only stand still, hold on the railing and think to myself: dont wave your arms as the walls are close. The damn tunnel was about 5 km (3 miles) long and at the speed of 40 km/h the complete darknes seemed to last forever. What an experience!

If you spill any kind of flammable materials from hazmat cars, steam engines have a good chance to light it on fire if you drive through it. Also any sliding wheels will definitely set it ablaze.
Hi Hyce, I really like the long episodes, but please don't let them cause a burnout. If an episode gets too long, it's no problem if you split it in 2 weeks to take some rest. Have fun in Europe soon!
Mark, your grandfather played with Calcium Carbide. Commonly used in miner's headlamps back in the day, because when it gets wet... yeah it produces acetylene.
@@Hyce777 BTW, it's not a mineral. CaC2 is basically made by cooking limestone mixed with coal. Fun thing: I've seen it sold in a hardware store... as mole repellent for the garden. Yup, put carbide in the hole, plug the entrance and let it slowly flood the tunnels with acetylene.
33:33 I can confirm, did that myself after an incident with a tank car that leaked methane(and then exploded). When moving an 0-6-0 around in that spot, the cinders lit it off, and the area started burning. However, I think it needs something to burn first, some kind of fuel. And namely in this case, as you possibly find out yourself later(commenting as I go), _perhaps a leaky container of Acetelyne?_
What's it like riding on the ES&D? Did you see "Airplane!" The Zucker brothers' mom was the passenger trying to put her lipstick on while the plane is crashing - that's what it's like. Or so my marketing research says.
I must say, having just recently gotten around to watching the video with the Eureka and the Glenbrook, it's kind of a shame that the only rocking that the steam locos tend to do is when you're moving at speed, and that they don't do much when they're actively working hard
Those lanterns really need magnets on the bottom or something huh? Yeah, acetylene totally comes from special nifty rocks, when they react with water. Super cool! Epic passenger car save.
2:06:25 That mineral is called calcium carbide aka calcium acetylide, it reacts with water into acetylene and calcium hydroxide. It is also used in carbide lamps.
I remember in one of Squirrel's preview vids before Simulator dropped he showed that if you have spilt splodey boi juice and toss your burning cigarette lighter onto it bad things happen, then he spilt some more - careless of him - and drove a steam loco through it and again everything went doggy style (big woof).
Yeah, as was said in the comments before, there is usually a water plug lined with the passenger station. Not sure if that is from the Passenger Jobs Mod, or if it is where they put them in vanilla, but yeah, you looked directly at it twice (at least) and still missed it... Granted, it kinda looked like it could have been a part of the station, so it is understandable that you missed it, but the ones in the cities dont have the big water tank.... Also, for the up and down signs for the track speed, they signal a change of 20kph or more, so a change of 10 will have no sign.

Since freight jobs don't give a monkey's where they are when you shove them in the computer, but passengers have to start at the platform, I'd have used diesel switch power to bang everyone into the west end of the passenger cut while it's in platform (yummy hazmat exposure), with the engine already laced up as well, then throw booklets in en masse and start your run like that (and, as I just did yesterday, cheat and keep your switcher as an RCL helper on the tail. because steamers can totes m'gotes control a DPU).

@@Hyce777 hello hyce thanks for answering. hope you are doing well. I can't wait for more 3/4, you guys are great when you all get together and bullshit
every time i watch your content all i hear is the set up for scenarios that result in 3/4 of an idiot episodes, lets do a mixed passenger train with cargo behind the passengers. hmm have i heard thsi going poorly right the last 3/4 of a idiot covered exactly this.
I'm sorry but it makes me MAD that you pronounce it "PennZy" instead of "Pennsy". Maybe you're pronouncing it correctly and I'm just being West Coast wrong, but it makes me 🤬
Fun fact about acetylene: it's super unstable, even by flammable/splody boi standards. What's in the containers is likely small-ish acetylene cylinders, because it needs to be stored dissolved acetone in a porous medium at low (
Laughing my ass off as I watch the silly birb man look at a job order pointing to bright screaming orange containers on flat cars and than proceeds to completely overlook the bright screaming orange tank cars sitting prominently in the yard. Perception LVL: 0 Admittedly those aren't the type of containers you would associate with hauling gas, being normal, but short, box containers rather than tank containers. My guess is that you are hauling gas cylinders rather than the bulk gas.
@@Hyce777 it Kinda makes sense to me, on one hand, that is how you use acetylene gas, out of a cylinder. But on the other hand, don't people usually own (or rent) the cylinders and refill them at a dedicated dealer who buys the gas in bulk (i.e. in a tanker). Then again, being in a cylinder would explain why the gas is explosive, since any pressure vessel, if mishandled, is basically a bomb and as far as I know acetylene on its own is just flamable. IDK I don't work with the stuff. If you or anyone else knows more, feel free to chime in.
2:07:20 Now I don't know if comercial acetylene gas is still made this way. But you take calcium carbide and mix it with water. This produces acetylene gas and powdered lime (Calcium hydroxide). It's what the old carbide lamps used to run on back in the day. Edit: I looked it up and most comercial acetylene is now produced as a partial combustion of methane as oil is an easier source of the hydrocarbons instead of the coal needed for the calcium carbide production. Which is basically coal coke and lime baked at high temperatures in an arc furnace.
Incidentally, old miners' lamps are powered by calcium carbide and water. It's just a can with the carbide and water in it and a small tube that pipes the acetylene into the center of a reflector. The acetylene flame produces a brilliant white light.
This is F Key Awareness day. Swap your dash bind to space and your jump bind to F. You can spam the spacebar with multiple fingers on your left hand while steering with your right.
Just a bit of advice for the future, Hyce. If you need to know the locations of important infrastructure, like standpipes and/or coaling spots for steamers, use the station maps! They show the layout of the yards, the locations of service spots, and where the shops to buy stuff are!
Fun Fact: Manually repairing your locomotives makes your overall debt lower. It’s not a separate thing, but a direct discount on paying off the career manager.
Well, if you're already in the "pay your remaining copay and the insurance will cover the rest" zone, it doesn't do too much. You service it manually for 2k - that's 2k off your copay (if I remember correctly). You pay 4k for the same service - that's 4k off your copay. And there's risk of paying more than your remaining copay and unexpectedly triggering insurance next time you touch the career terminal (even if you wanted to do a thing or two on the insurance money first)
1:34:22 - 1:34:23 i believe you were looking right at the water stand , but it was dark so you didnt notice. 1:39:54 you run right past the water stand after paying for service at the station
Y'know, running hazmat and passengers does seriously sound like something the ES&D would do. Side note, I'm not as big of a fan of the 2-hr DV episodes. I get that they happen (particularly when things go wrong) and they can be interesting, but I tend to prefer the ~1hr ones. (Ah, not that laugh again!)

Laughing my ass off as I watch the silly birb man look at a job order pointing to bright screaming orange containers on flat cars and than proceeds to completely overlook the bright screaming orange tank cars sitting prominently in the yard. Perception LVL: 0
Admittedly those aren't the type of containers you would associate with hauling gas, being normal, but short, box containers rather than tank containers. My guess is that you are hauling gas cylinders rather than the bulk gas.
Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaat makes a lot of sense.
@@Hyce777 it Kinda makes sense to me, on one hand, that is how you use acetylene gas, out of a cylinder. But on the other hand, don't people usually own (or rent) the cylinders and refill them at a dedicated dealer who buys the gas in bulk (i.e. in a tanker). Then again, being in a cylinder would explain why the gas is explosive, since any pressure vessel, if mishandled, is basically a bomb and as far as I know acetylene on its own is just flamable. IDK I don't work with the stuff. If you or anyone else knows more, feel free to chime in.
@@AllisonChainz3718 Yeah I am in the same confused boat as you. lol
2:07:20 Now I don't know if comercial acetylene gas is still made this way. But you take calcium carbide and mix it with water. This produces acetylene gas and powdered lime (Calcium hydroxide). It's what the old carbide lamps used to run on back in the day.
Edit: I looked it up and most comercial acetylene is now produced as a partial combustion of methane as oil is an easier source of the hydrocarbons instead of the coal needed for the calcium carbide production. Which is basically coal coke and lime baked at high temperatures in an arc furnace.
Interesting! Thank you.
Incidentally, old miners' lamps are powered by calcium carbide and water. It's just a can with the carbide and water in it and a small tube that pipes the acetylene into the center of a reflector. The acetylene flame produces a brilliant white light.
This is F Key Awareness day. Swap your dash bind to space and your jump bind to F. You can spam the spacebar with multiple fingers on your left hand while steering with your right.
Hmm. I already dual-finger the F key as-is; but that does seem to be a move...
“This seems like a dumb…” damn right, but it’d be funnyy
Just a bit of advice for the future, Hyce. If you need to know the locations of important infrastructure, like standpipes and/or coaling spots for steamers, use the station maps! They show the layout of the yards, the locations of service spots, and where the shops to buy stuff are!
Fun Fact: Manually repairing your locomotives makes your overall debt lower. It’s not a separate thing, but a direct discount on paying off the career manager.
Well shit.
@@Hyce777well, express passenger with a diesel locomotive next?
Well, if you're already in the "pay your remaining copay and the insurance will cover the rest" zone, it doesn't do too much. You service it manually for 2k - that's 2k off your copay (if I remember correctly). You pay 4k for the same service - that's 4k off your copay. And there's risk of paying more than your remaining copay and unexpectedly triggering insurance next time you touch the career terminal (even if you wanted to do a thing or two on the insurance money first)
"OH this is where the ranch is from!" caught me so off guard I about dropped my drawing pen lol
“Explody Boy Boxes”? More like a “Boom Box Boy”… Boomy Boys, then? Boom Boxes. Hope I didn’t throw off your groove there, Emperor Hyceco.
1:34:22 - 1:34:23 i believe you were looking right at the water stand , but it was dark so you didnt notice.
1:39:54 you run right past the water stand after paying for service at the station
Passengers and bombs?!?!? Nothing could go wrong here it’s not like this is the ES&D.
Whoa whoa whoa Wait a minute there fella. You said Auxiliary Tender mod!!! You must get it. No one ever shows love to the Aux Tender.
1:22:45 As a jazz musician, I love night train! Simple but fun horn line to play, and the bass line just grooves right along.
As Thomas said that’s what buffers are for to stop engines from crashing
Y'know, running hazmat and passengers does seriously sound like something the ES&D would do.
Side note, I'm not as big of a fan of the 2-hr DV episodes. I get that they happen (particularly when things go wrong) and they can be interesting, but I tend to prefer the ~1hr ones.
(Ah, not that laugh again!)
Very understandable mate! 2 hours is a long freaking episode. I try to not cut much out and sometimes that just be how it is.
To Hyce,
the water plug is in front of yor face 1:34:13
