This is IS-20 steam locomotive. There were 649 of them built from 1932 to 1942. Some of them remained in use till 1972. IS-20 received Grand Prix in 1937 at the "International Exposition of Art and Technology" in Paris
Спасибо for uploading the video clip, I watched it several times. The rolling video, where the train is running, was very good and the music was an excellent choice.
Reminds me of a Chicago & North Western locomotive... Streamlining trains did little to increase speed, as few actually faced head winds. It often decreased visibility, as the smooth casing allowed smoke to trail closely to the body. The Grand Trunk used wind-tunnel experiments to design a casing that INCREASED turbulence at the front of the locomotive to lift the smoke away.
Thanks for uploading a picture of some of the fastest Russian steam. The 4-6-4, Class 2-3-2B, looks a broad-gauge (is that 1.6m, as I remember reading somewhere?) counterpart of the New York Central/American Locomotive Class J-3 streamliner, with more of a bullet nose in the smokebox.
Thank you. My great uncle, a steam locomotivengineer, said it is unfortunate that our gauge is not 5 or 6 feet. His huge 4-8-4 locomotive was as big as it could get, restricted by gauge.
Though Berkshires were designed as freight locomotives, they were meant for fast freight. Nickel Plate berkshires ran freight at 60 mph across northern Ohio and Indiana.
Very interesting, thank you. I hadn't been aware of these Soviet streamliners. When I visited Russia in 1993 I noticed a number of steam locos in store on sidings beside the main line. Is there much of a steam preservation scene in Russia now?
I know Russia has locomotive parades and even operates scheduled steam services on a few lines in order to bring interest to the railways. I also now Russian Railways does look some steam locos and sponsors excursions.
Some beautiful locomotives there.. :) :) My B-17 has stalled and won't be finished this month.. I'm just too tired to enjoy the build at the moment.. :P
packr72: interesting you should mention Frisco 1630: I was a fireman's apprentice on her many years ago when I volunteered at IRM. And I literally grew up with 1630 practically in my back yard!
i was sure Russia used an even larger gague than 5 ft. Very little difference from the standard 4 ft 8 1/2 gague. 120 years back we still had some of Brunel's 7ft 1 gague.
In modern Russia many old locomotives were scrapped. But in present time some engines are still alive. Of cource an unofficial record of speed between diesels (273 km/h) is under russian ТЭП80
Сергей Монахов Siento no estar de acuerdo. es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talgo_XXI El comprobado, certificado y vigente Récord del mundo para tracción diesel ferroviaria está en poder de las unidades Talgo XXI del ADIF construidos por Patentes Talgo y adaptados a trenes auscultadores para la red ferroviaria española de ancho Ibérico. es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancho_ib%C3%A9rico Casi igual al ruso y el UIC 1435 mm.
at first I was a liitle surprised by the berks & hudsons, having just watched a bunch of Euro-steam which of course never seems to get bigger than Pacifics and Decapods, then remembered this was the Russiand, who also had those magnificent 4-8-4's
Russian Decapods, deliveries stopped once the Soviets took power, many were sold to US railways, even though the Decapod was unpopular Here's Frisco 1630 watch?v=POwmBmaGPr0 Notice the small driving wheels, they weren't built for speed
Could be, still, the ruskis made a very impressive long distance plane in the 1930's, that flew from the USSR to America, quite an achievement in that period. The crew even got a ticket parade in New York. It was quite a stunt, and the US clearly was impressed by it. Is it excluded that they also made more progress with steam trains that we in the West hold for possible ?
Damon G explain then who is going to pay all those who are claiming benefits? Who is going to fund the expenses needed for the repair of everything from roads to homes and who is going to pay for the upkeep of all the green land the world has? Until you anti-government protesters come up with a suitable plan, keep quiet
You know in that time computer modeling was out of reach and wind tunnels rare technology reserved for airspace industry. So streamlining was more propoganda and passenger apeal thing. British Railways after goverment takeover removed streamlining from many trains, because it had no benefits only maitenance problems. Soviet design was heavyweight locomotive, so streamlining probably was more dead weight, most of speed was generated by raw power of its boiler.
An interesting collection of sequences. Sadly, as usual in Russia, it seems that the main priority was to prove to the rest of the world that "we can do it as well". Nowhere do we see the streamlined locomotives actually doing their job ... hauling high speed expresses. The Russian authorities have such a crisis of self-esteem !
Blah blah blah..if no one reported the event to you, it doesn't mean it did not happen. Where were you supposed to see it anyway? It was a closed society, remember?
I haven't confirmed anything yet. And "dear" WTF(?!), I am not your shrink, and I probably will never be so you have to find someone else to help you get through your bloody transference. Ciao.

1:09 i didn't know this until now, but the engine in the middle in this shot is the V8000 steam-diesel hybrid locomotive

The only remaining locomotive of this class (№578) was preserved and installed as a monument in Kiev, though it is labeled as FDp class
Very interesting! I had no idea the Soviet Union ever produced any streamlined steam. Thanks for the excellent look, sir.
Спасибо for uploading the video clip, I watched it several times. The rolling video, where the train is running, was very good and the music was an excellent choice.
I don't like Communisim. but I still think they're cool looking machines, streamlined or unstreamlined.
PLEASE. THIS TRAIN IN Train simulator 2016
Molodezhnaya from 'Volga, Volga" by the Academic Grand Choir of All-Union National Radio Service and Central Television Networks
Danke
Steam rocks!! Beautiful iron beast!

Gotta love that backing music.
Великая эпоха, великая страна, великие люди
Hermosas Locomotoras !!!
My grandad had a picture of one similar when i was a kid, always thought they looked a bit scary!
which one?
Bachmann/Hornby/Dapol/Heljan: Are you watching? We need these!
А качество какое было,на века при Сталине делали с гарантией качество-пожизненно при должном уходе за техникой!
What song is it? Love it....!!!
Instead of water, the trains in the USSR run on vodka.
How witty you are.
love the music
The name of this song is "Molodegnaja" or by russian is "Молодежная".
looked all over, and i can't find it.
Вьется дымка золотая придорожная...
Ой ты, радость молодая, невозможная!
Точно небо, высока ты,
Точно море, широка ты,
Необъятная дорога молодежная!
Wow. Imagine how spacious and stable such rail passenger cars would be today!
And how much freight cars could hold.

Both Soviets and American Share The same Locomotive Heights tho Americans had Larger and heavyweight locomotives than the soviets
The Soviets were actually using American locomotive designs that the USA gave to them at one point or another. The Chinese did the same thing.
Thanks for showing me something that I have never seen before.
very interesting the use of a berkshire wheel arrangement despite being intended for high speed.
Though Berkshires were designed as freight locomotives, they were meant for fast freight. Nickel Plate berkshires ran freight at 60 mph across northern Ohio and Indiana.
Me encanta la cancion, le da mas velocidad a las imagenes de la locomotora.
Note that some of these locomotives look almost like their American counterparts
Great music.
what is the name of the music of the video?
Василий Лебедев-Кумач
Молодежная (1937)
Superb steam machine.
The soviet streamliners are quite interesting.
Very interesting, thank you. I hadn't been aware of these Soviet streamliners. When I visited Russia in 1993 I noticed a number of steam locos in store on sidings beside the main line. Is there much of a steam preservation scene in Russia now?

Russian streamline engines look beautiful.
What is this song's name? It sounds a lot like "if you're happy and you know it"
It's student's choir. In Soviet Union there were student's building groups (stroyotrjad). And this choir is singing about travelling to building.
i dont know why but i get a hiawatha vibe from these locomotives
Some beautiful locomotives there.. :) :) My B-17 has stalled and won't be finished this month.. I'm just too tired to enjoy the build at the moment.. :P
basically a streamlined P36, i suppose. Looks a lot like the Milwaukee Road Hiawatha. And also rather like the diesel loco in Octopussy.
Did the streamling actually make a difference in speed attained?
Or just efficiency?
5-foot gauge?
Thank you for posting this.
Great video, great trains, great job. Some of the engines are almost Art Deco..
Nostalgia as a kid
good music.
I think you'll find that Gresley's A4 Mallard in the UK which holds the world steam speed record to this day was also Deco.
Interesting attempts at Streamlining. Nice designs!
packr72: interesting you should mention Frisco 1630: I was a fireman's apprentice on her many years ago when I volunteered at IRM. And I literally grew up with 1630 practically in my back yard!
35 years later, I have just found the likely origin of the Soul Train cartoon.
nice locomotives :) i always admired the russian engineering.
these trains remind me of the armoured train in james bond: golden eye.
@fmcVlad Thank you very much.. :) I'm off to work in a minute, but I'd rather go to bed.. :) I need SLEEP.. and lots of it..
Seen this one before. This is the one where they have to wait for the valves to warm up.
Very interstesting Vidéos: Thanck you very much!
Good old days
@AlanMartinNala Yes, indeed. Designers were asked to create a streamlined body for existing locomotives.
Советский стиль
More specifically I would say it resembles the NYC 5344 hudson that pulled the Commodore
i was sure Russia used an even larger gague than 5 ft. Very little difference from the standard 4 ft 8 1/2 gague. 120 years back we still had some of Brunel's 7ft 1 gague.
High speed soviet trains take you to Gulag at blistering speeds.
Go ahead, comrade Stalin!
Excellent training film, comrade. Cheers!

Awesome designs! Mostly taking into account that these locomotives seem to be old, arent they?
Many of them pre-WW2, old even for steam locomotives.
Ich bin ein Fan von Lokomotiven Super !
Excellent. Design as per "boundary line theorem "or aerodynamics. Thanks

Very well designed and the only running steam engines in Russia
There's no need to hurry when going to a gulag :P
I remember this video
Anyone know what tune this is?
Russian Decapods, deliveries stopped once the Soviets took power, many were sold to US railways, even though the Decapod was unpopular
Here's Frisco 1630
watch?v=POwmBmaGPr0

Great Britains 'Mallard' still holds the steam train speed record though :)
Locomotivas soviéticas CCCP são incríveis i love !!
Could swear I've seen these trains before in was it Wolfenstein games or Bioshock?
in Soviet Russia you don't ride trains. Trains ride you.
why all the hatred, we all have one common enemy and that is our governments....
Damon G Kudos to ya
Damon G explain then who is going to pay all those who are claiming benefits? Who is going to fund the expenses needed for the repair of everything from roads to homes and who is going to pay for the upkeep of all the green land the world has?

ghostlylover99123 actually it is the taxes that pay for all that. But we NEED a government to handle the taxes AND politics.
@@ghostlylover99123 I'm pretty sure its a joke, don't get butthurt lmao
What names of this song ???
The locomotive is named Iosif Stalin....
Maybe they had a shortage of names in the Soviet Union?
Naming convention in the Stalin era.

¡Precioso!. Parecen locomotoras americanas.
What's The name of the music (It's Amazing ;) )
+Jack Faulk author: Vasily Lebedev-Kumach, song: Molodeznaya
Thank you! :D
From film Volga-Volga
Thank you! I've solved the question
but hapenedon those magnificent engines today :D
There’s one unstreamlined IS on display in Ukraine. The rest of these locomotives were scrapped
I think they are cool looking machines, too ... and I LOVE communism ....
@BasicModelling Do not worry, I looked up your rail channel, I liked it and I submitted this to my list.
music please
The first train must be Stalin's train, because it says his name on it
160км/ч. и сейчас остается мечтой для бывших стран СССР (Разве только что Сапсан в России)
Just a quickie why didnt they put the engines behind the cockpit so the could see whats goin on silly old people
In Soviet Russia, Train derails you.
Is it me or are they singing the Russian version of "If You're Happy and You Know It"?
I'd rather say that the plane was able to slow down to keep speed with the train.
what is the name of the music of the video?
does anyone know the name of this song? i remember it as a child but i was to little to remember the name.
GREAT VIDEO
Хорошо в стране Советской жить!!!!!
I know a few things that are tall, blond, friendly & very warm,- believe me :)*
I showed this video to my 7 year old cousin and he was TERRIFIED!
where is 2-3-2K model of the Kolomna plant?

The train got boiler can run
Lololol
Interesting to say the least..
