Silliness aside, those grasshopper locomotives look really cool.

Great idea running it on compressed air! :)

[@derkaiser50]

not a great idea

[@garryferrington811]

Seems like quite a museum.

Technically incorrect.
The “John Bull” was Americas First Locomotive 🚂. Built in 1831, it ran from Camden, NJ to NY.
Average speed 25 to 30mph.

[@FenderBender5150]

and by higer speeds we mean 10mph

[@jumbocube]

this is crazy!!!

[@bluebear6570]

Very impressive indeed, but it also shows how far behing American locomotive engineering was when compared to Stevenson´s Rocket and the following 2-2-2 "Patentee" type locos.

Now look who's hauling 200 freight cars...

[@Petemonster62]

It sounds like the locomotive was originally built without the cab.

[@loganj.harrison6315]

I would love to hear what the whistle sounds like
