by Herron Rail Video.
You just need to love articulated steam locomotives for their personal enlarged appearance along with their incredible physical size and strength.
Articulated steam locos in america have always been my favorite type of locomotive. nothing can top the beautiful beasts.
Herron always has the best videos.
Thanks Roger, I appreciate that! -JH
Herron, longtime heads above all the rest, & I've bought a lot of vintage railroading DVDs through the years, VHS, before that.
I love steam giants! These are really inspirational!
look at 1218's front engine slip at 1:02
My favorite overall steam locomotives which are included in this, are the DM&IR’s 2-8-8-4 Yellowstones!
Greatest locomotive ever made!!!
@@johnrhodes4273 I agree! They are my favorites!
A legend has been woke up!
There are over 80 "Legends" in the DVD!
Ok.
@@herronrailvideo1169 bro is that Danny Harmon voicing *AGAIN*
N&W A class is my favorite steam locomotives in my life and my favorite steam locomotive is N&W 1218
The B&O's EM-1'S are my all time favorite articulated locomotives
The Big Boys, DM&IR Yellowstones and N&W As are my favorite articulates
All of your favorites appear in the DVD.
The big boys are my favorite steam locomotive in the world and the union pacific
Great to see you guys are still in business! :D
Yes we are
Articulated meant that the front drive wheels could rotate right or left as if being steered even though they followed the tracks. Some tracks had been laid with too sharp a turn for those long engines to navigate, so they built them such that the front drivers would appear to operate as if they were on a swivel, thus allowing the long engines to navigate sharp turns without binding the wheels on the rails.
the golden time of the railroad!
Never seen a Western Maryland challenger in color with sound before, very interesting video
I can't wait to receive it in the mail!
This looks amazing
I knew that was Danny's voice!
0:12 I have remember seeing this footage of the B&O EM-1 in the live action Scenes of Geotrax My Day with Trains.
Fantastic footage!
There is much, much more on the DVD!
0:26. This locomotive made me do the M-1 class for the Atlanta and Northern railroad.
2:30 It's sad that none of the SP AC-9 Yellowstone are preserved.
Of the eighteen built, three survive and are on display in Minnesota: No. 225 at Proctor, No. 227 at the Lake Superior Railroad Museum in Duluth and No. 229 at Two Harbors.
Yes, but those are from the DM&IR, not SP.
Those are different railroads, by the way.
I love articulates steam locomotives my favourite type is the Mallet the y class
Thank you Danny Harmon for narrating the Articulates. I also enjoy your Distant Signal Channel.
Nothing like those fire-eating monsters.
0:40 Norfolk and Western
0:48 Danny Dark: The railroad's premier heavy tonnage hauler was the 2-8-8-2 Y6 class locomotive.
This is really cool!
That is awesome!
Well, I know what I’m asking for for Christmas this year.
These Articulateds locomotives goes through tight curves and climbs the steepgrades.
the world's biggest steam locomotive is the Pennsylvania Railroad S1 not the Big Boy
In overall length, yes the S-1 was bigger. The tender was about 10 ft longer which made the overall length about 8 ft longer. In terms of just the locomotive, the big boy was bigger; it was wider, longer, and taller.
Cool
Is the Yellowstones the most powerful steam locomtives ever built, and the Big boys are the biggest steam locomotives ever built?
the N&W Y6b's can easily muster over 155,000 lbs of tractive effort making em more powerful than the Yellowstones albeit this was only when the locomotive was in simple operation. When in compound the engines musterd around 126,000 lbs of tractive effort
Both the DM&IR and NP Yellowstones had more tractive effort then Big Boy (140,000 Vs 135,375) but Big Boy had more horsepower then the Yellowstones.
Really the largest steam locomotive ever built was the Pennsylvania RR S1, but it was a failure so no one talks about it.
@@cdangelo1843 the S1 was not a failure! It was perfectly functional, it was successful enough to last till the PRR fell on hard times, just wasn't successful enough to inspire anymore to be built.
This is gonna be awesome!
Thanks much
Got a question, does there happen to be any Southern 2-8-8-2’s in this film?
No.
Articulated: America's biggest steam!
*Proceeds to show Mallet @ **0:50**.*
Mallets are articulated, y'know.
Compounds (Mallets), Simples - both "articulateds;" just so you know, for future references.
That voice sounds firmilue
Harmon!
1:12 wheel slip
The European mind can’t comprehend having engines so large and then not immediately rearranging the tracks it goes over
Unique
Are you gonna release the full America’s biggest steam?
It has been released. You can order it on our web site. Just search for herronrail .
I love steam locomotives 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
I did notice C&O had a live sound segment. Are there the other railroads in this DVD that have live sound film segments?
Any Great Northern articulated footage in this video?
Sorry, no NP in this one.
OOPS, no GN in this one. There is a little NP.
How many, types, and classes of steam giants roared across the U.S can someone list them?
If you’re just talking about articulateds, then you had the 2-8-8-0s, 2-8-8-2, 0-8-8-0s, 2-6-6-2s, 2-6-6-4s, 4-6-6-4s, 2-8-8-4s, 4-8-8-2, and the 4-8-8-4s. Certain engine types had names or class designations depending on the railroad that class served on. On the N&W 2-8-8-2s were called the “Y” class and the 2-6-6-4s were called “A” class. The 2-8-8-4s were generally known as “Yellowstones” and the 4-6-6-4s were generally known as “Challengers”. The 4-8-8-4s were referred to as the “4000” class by the men who ran them back in the 1940s and 1950s and were only called “Big Boys” in advertisements by the Union Pacific back in the day.
Awesome thanks for sharing!
Is the WMSR #1309 included? Just saw it run a month ago. Very nice.
The 1309 itself isn’t included but the narrator does mention 1309 and how it’s being restored. Sister locomotives to the 1309 are shown though in regular steam service.
I thank God almighty for the Union Pacific and their steam heritage program. Because of them we got to see a couple of these big articulated beasts like the Challenger and now Big Boy 4014 in action in modern times and the present.
How did you find the 2-6-6-6 footage?
It came from two different sources who provided the film to us.
How much is the dvd?

Can I use some of these pictures?
No. This video, as are all on this channel, has copyright to Herron Rail Video. We regularly have videos of ours and posted by others that we find on You Tube removed by You Tube. Three such strikes will result in the other poster's channel removed by You Tube. Think about it--create your own videos. Look up You Tube's copyright rules.
@@herronrailvideo1169 Got it, but why is that so strictly copyright protected? (Cuz I don't run into these cases very often.)
🙏👍💕
What about Southern Railway articulated steam?
We had no footage of Southern articulateds.
@@herronrailvideo1169 😭
B&O EM-1 's ??
Yes
Better than Diesel Locomotives
Diesel locomotives are Very Awesome, it's the Electric locomotives that are eh.
I get a big laugh out of the way these guys think hard-bitten railroaders would have been concerned about a proper Belgian pronunciation of "mallet." 😆 Even then, they don't. 🤣
