San Juan Branch Line: Fool's Golden Spike

On a special ceremonial day to return the long-lost NG connection to active service, the odd duo of Anthony and Ben run into numerous setbacks on this twisty, winding line.
Special thanks to Steve Lerro for providing the special Golden Spike car in the game. It is not available for public release.

It's a great day when a San Juan Branch Line episode comes out!

[@jhrstudios.87546]

These pieces of footage have existed for years

[@davidmcgillveray146]

I always like the design of Anthony's 4-4-0 American type.

[@MabyeAHandle]

WOAH!
:Edit I didn’t realize this was back and I thought you quit. I’m glad to see this masterpiece back into action.

[@godzillakingofthemonsters54]

Anthony: No one would put a true American engine on switching duty
Ben: clears throat.

[@samgineer9857]

This video is the epidemy of what Ben asked Anthony in Reefer Madness... "You think Train Master put us here because we cause problems?"

[@trainlandia697]

FINALLY! Another episode of San Juan Branch Line!

[@julesotis13]

i love yalls tlaking trains very much

[@boosteraxledoesstuff2769]

I know this might be a common thing of suggesting chapter ideas, but I been thinking an Episode where a foreign, shunter a Class 01 british railways would come to san juan, in the DLS there is a version of it with knuckle couplers so it could work as an example :)

[@robertbalazslorincz8218]

Realisation: the line was built in the 1890s, and there were Mason bogies on it.. those might have been the last 3 to be vacated by the DL&G some time before 1894 meaning the one plinthed at Aroc might be an original DSP&P Mason bogie!

I'm glad more San Juan videos are being made

[@IndustrialParrot2816]

yeah the cascades have crazy snowfall sometimes 10 feet deep the Northern Pacific had an army of rotarys to deal with it and so did the great northern

Anthony always says that you always lose your bunker if wasn't attached but instead losing a bunker he loses his tender 19:08

The irony

Been waiting for a new episode. Glade to see one. But this isn't a new episode... this series is really old now I hope this isn't a sign that it's dying.

[@danborn9445]

What happens the full San Juan branch line series

[@sergeysmirnov1062]

I'm mostly watching this and going "Wait, is Anthony one of the engines configured for both way running?" XD
Err... correct me if I'm wrong, but, at least AFAIK the way the tenders were attached to the engines made them only really useable when pulled, i.e. driving forwards) while under load, is that just a myth or is that something more specific to European engines?

[@LolLol-xy4rh]

What’s with the reupload?

[@canadiangamer5462]

mainly because the channel this was one before had was never approved for add revenue so they moved to this channel while changing up the intro somewhat and a few smaller things there your reason i hope this help answering your question

[@hmhobbies]

1:50 as a Marylander I should feel offended but Baltimore is a dumpster fire that is a embarrassment to my state.
