those 1/8 live steamers are so friggin cool, especially double heading with those beautiful whistle and chuff sounds, really makes me want to get into 1/8 7.5" gauge live steam
0:02 beautiful whistle ❤️ it takes me back to when SP 4449 still had her SP 6 chime whistle which is my favorite she used.
Check out Hesston especially Labor Day they have everything run by steam. Just a suggestion. Have a great weekend everyone
There are numerous videos from Hesston on this channel
I liked the whistle of the trailing train
dashing through the tracks
with a 240 psi boiler
over the hills it goes
chuffing all the way!
That is awesome beautiful love these miniature trains amazingly beautiful 👍

There was a slightly delay, but I really laughed when I recognised that.
I'm interested in the signal system and "claiming a block." Can you do a video that shows how that works, as well as explaining the rules? Thanks, and happy 2018!
I’ll keep that in mind 👍🏻
Some if not all of what you asked was in a "Live Steam & Outdoor Railroading" magazine article.
Hey, thank you for the tip!
It's imposible to grow up with RUclips recomending me these videos, jajajajaja 😁
very cool. awesome video.
I used to be a member of buckeye rail model engineers club of Galion Ohio years ago
have a old cow field across the road i run ride on trains after making some adjustments it's the perfect spot to run trains
Check out the remote control "homebrew-train" at 2:22 ! Work in progress?
How much did you "need" a double header to pull that train, or is it just cool? I mean it is really cool to have two identical big locos like that.
i am sure those 2 locos could have pulled twice as many cars
I drive my Illinois Central 4-8-2 mountain type with 20 passenger cars
Love this channel 🎄
Kandi Klover thank you! Glad you enjoy the videos
Nice.
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2018 FROM THE CITY ALMERIA (SPAIN) THE STEAM CHANNEL
Manuel Casas Martin Thank you! Happy New Year from Chicago
Re title: Red signal express
The 2 steam engines hooked together each cost $28.000
$60,000-$100,000 each- especially for 1690.
AWESOME!!!!
man this train had to stop a lot!
Michael Bobb the railroad was very busy due to the convention.
Does anyone know how much power these Steam locomotives put out? They are so great!
What beautiful machines! How do you synchronize two steam engines though? Is it done just by feel?
Verbally between the engineers
Both through verbal communication and feel to try and evenly distribute the workload between the engines. You can feel the tension between the two and you can hear the intensity of the exhaust bark on each engine to tell you which is working harder or handling most of the load or if they're both sharing it.
Can you build a locomotive? Or must you buy? How much could one of the stronger ones pull ? Great videos
most people build
Nice video :)
Why are THESE same 2 Northerns always push/pulling all the time?
Coool 😁😁
carpel tunnel haha
Do you have any video clips of the 1:5 scale engines wheel slipping? If you do could you do a compilation of that?
There is a bit of wheel slip from the H10's in the video where they are towing the Challenger. I'm not sure I have a lot of footage other than that.
The Steam Channel yes I have seen the challenger slip like the wheels are butter but that's all I've ever seen...
No, that’s a different video. There is a second video in the Live Steam playlist where 2 H10’s are towing her back. The both push her solo at points and have a lot of driver slip.
The Steam Channel OK I just saw that video and I started to wonder if you could get some real scale steam train wheel slip or some 2-10-0/2-10-2 footage real scale and/or mini scale?
How much do they weigh
Why not just expand the tunnel to put two tracks on there
Because it’s not a two track mainline
How much does one this size cost? Are there kits produced or are they all scratch built?
A northern like this would cost over $50,000-$60,000 RTR. Some vendors make kits of castings for the chassis- but you’re still doing the intensive machining work from there.
Do they ever crash?
yes
What the heck is this place?
What inch gauge is that?
7.5
How do you get into this hobby?
Logan Martin All you really need to do is join a club and have the willingness to teach yourself how to do fabrication work (machining, welding, etc). If you’re willing to build your own equipment- it’s really no more expensive than most other hobbies.
Is 1.5 actually 1 1/2 scale? Pls tell me it is 1 1/2
Yes and No. To make 7.5 inch gauge correct you need to use 1.6 inft. Scale and gauge are relative. True gauge for 1.5 in scale is 1.5 / 12.0 x 56.5 = 7 0625 or 7 1/16 inches. 7.5 in gauge is 3 ft for 2.5 in scale and 2 ft for 3.75 in scale. It is a matter of convenience for using commercial parts. The gauge of 7.25 in is used in the NE USA & Britain for 1.5 in scale for convenience.
Because of wheel contours and dimensions 7.25 in may or may not be able to run on 7.5 in track successfully but obviously 7.5 in won't be able to run on 7.25 in track. There may be exceptions. This is why the Brotherhood of Live Steam came into being so equipment would interchange. This is also the major reason for the National Model Railroad Association(which is international now) was formed. Does this help you?
I see a great club of livesteamer here I am unique livesteamer in BRAZIL and my dream is to know a club in U.S.A how do I pair an invitation to friends?
where location?
nextrip outdoor it’s a private railroad in Ohio.
My number is 2542
