    I was a boiler technician in the US Navy 86-90 it was so cool learning boilers (Babcock & Willcox modified D type 600 psi marine propulsion boiler) I think about that equipment every day still.
    I appreciate and respect what you are doing great video. Thanks

    I love how much work you train guys put into your hobby, with no ROI other than your own personal enjoyment. It reminds me that not everything you do has to be that “sigma male grindset” that you can just peacefully enjoy whatever you do without making money. Most of us will be forgotten in 100 years, and you remind me that it’s important to make the most of your time, even if it’s only for personal enjoyment. Thanks for reminding me that not everything has to be about the hustle and the money. Forget about what others think, and just enjoy yourself. I think I’m going to go build a model airplane. Love you guys.

      Really there are 3 main controls, regulator for controlling speed, reverser for direction and cylinder cocks for clearing condensed water out of the cylinders. All the other stuff is pretty much just extras.

    • @Dudeface167
      @Dudeface167 11 месяцев назад +3

      I forgot about the fireman, he's the one who has to control draft and keep the fire just right, the driver just has to control speed and direction.

    • @TimeMasterOG

      @Dudeface167 yes but you need to be able to perfectly use those controls to run the steam engine efficiently. Otherwise your wasting steam

      Somewhat. The coal has been burning, but hasn’t been reduced to ashes just yet. In order to cool down the locomotive we have to slowly dump the fire and remove the source of heat from the engine.

      When I was a kid in the early 60’s, we went to the Old Thresher’s Reunion in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. They have a bunch of the old steam powered farm tractors there. One guy had a scale model of one that was probably half the size of this locomotive. Everything was to scale and worked. It did everything the big ones did and was so cool, especially for a kid. It was for sale and I tried to talk my dad into buying it, but I guess he thought $1000 dollars was a bit too much.😄 If it’s still around 60 years later I imagine it would cost a bit more. The detail and craftsmanship of it and this locomotive are very impressive.

    Something like that subject to FRA regs? Seeing passengers on that, I'm thinking it's under some kind of government or insurance company inspired regulations/policies

    • @Bennyboi_
      @Bennyboi_  9 месяцев назад +2

      Definitely under insurance, but since our gauge is smaller than 2 feet and we cross no public roadways, we are not subject to FRA guidelines. The steam engines do need state boiler inspections though.

    • @nathanielemerson4204
      @nathanielemerson4204 Год назад

      I do not believe it includes the price of the building, tools and all that. You can get a less expensive engine, but not that size or in operational condition. To get into the live steam hobby from what I have observed, it's basically a lifestyle choice more than just a hobby. It's like owning a horse or something. You have to feed, water and take care of the locomotive. If you can't do all that, don't plan on running it. This is from someone who does not have one, but I've been looking into it. I'm not rich, so it may be a long time before I can afford this hobby.

    Why did you put so much coal in there just to shovel it all out?

    • @Bennyboi_
      @Bennyboi_  Год назад

      This was over a several hour running period, and in order to generate enough heat to keep the locos pressure up, you need to add coal as the fire burns and turns to ash. However, once the running day is over and the engine needs to go to bed, we let the fire die and "pull it" to stop the heating of the engine. We also fill the boiler with water to help with cooling.
