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.
Steam locos are still the most impressive ones. The only thing where you can experience physics and technic so near and clearly. Very nice loco and track!
These are the sort of videos youtube was really made for... I am a qualified light vehicle Mechanic in Australia turned truck driver (equivalent of a CDL in the states) and have always been about machinary from small to big and all the moving parts of that machinary... This is so cool. This really makes me think how cool the world is with all the different niche hobbies and hobbyists.
Probably the best collection of Stanley Steamers in the Country. Clarence Marshall was the local Stanley dealer and he put aside one of each model for himself. When I was a kid, Mr. Marshall showed me how a Stanley worked and some features of his Dobles.
Nothing stops you for doing that in your free time. Better to have hobby than looking on screens all day. My is modular diy synthesizer. Just one, but quite big ;)
That is just way to cool , I was helping with some antique steam tractors this summer , and might get my licence. I made a few videos , but not as cool as this is
I'm taken aback. Was about to ask what scale might this be called, but heck, who cares...lol. amount of detail and this is actually a steam engine! Lol. How awesome!
the thin light table plates from IKEA are weak... if you rage you can punch them but they will not survive... rage more but you have nothing left to punish... I appreciate that there are people on this globe who know how to put other people at ease with the simple love of steam and technical expertise. I hope our children will keep the old inventions and the knowledge from times gone by alive, we will never know.
At the time that these were made available to the public I’d imagine the only ones who would be able to afford them would have been those with a lot of money and a lot of land

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
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.
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.
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. @fredbrandon1645
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.

Its amazing how much pulling power that little engine has.

The amount of knowledge needed to run a steam engine is admirable to say the least .

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.
These “little” engines are such amazing pieces of machinery and engineering
I wonder how much it weighs

I used to work on those engines in my teenage years when they were still owned by Tom. Place hasn't changed a bit!
Oh wow, luckily the locomotives and Stanley’s are now owned by the nonprofit so they’ll be here for a while longer

Are the models based on real locomotives, or are they fictionalised?
These little ones are just. As a teenager I was fireman for full size right out of high school. A 4-8-2 consolidation
Great video Ben! Really highlights the great runs we had that day.
Couldn't agree more!
This is the absolute coolest thing ever! You guys are so lucky!
damn that is so revolutionary. now imagine if we made this bigger.
Steam is an amazingly powerful force. Boilers take an astonishing amount of labor to maintain. Good video. Thanks for posting.
I wish I had the knowledge, know-how, experience, and resources to be able to have this in my yard😊

What a beautiful sight ✅👍😊
Amazing trains
Must be extra special when the fall colors are in bloom.
Admiration to you guys……much admiration.
Love it. It took some one a long time to build!
I've always wanted to work on a preservation Railway...
Just incredible model ! 😊👍🏻
I'm taken aback. Was about to ask what scale might this be called, but heck, who cares...lol. amount of detail and this is actually a steam engine! Lol. How awesome!
Glad you enjoyed! Though to answer your question anyway, this is 1/8th scale live steam running on 7.5in gauge track
An incredible machine.
What a tiny little big cute fella
So fascinating
Thank you
Beautiful
Thank you!

Thanks for this video sir 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Beautiful engine
I so can't wait to build my locomotive
Amazing video
This is art.
Steam will always be the king. Nice "Northern"!
WOAH! That's awesome!
At the time that these were made available to the public I’d imagine the only ones who would be able to afford them would have been those with a lot of money and a lot of land
#402 was fired up.
Great video Ben
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like your channel is the best in the world 🌎🌎
nice
Thanks
that is the cutest thing i have ever seen
Maybe someday I'll own one of these live steam locomotives. It'd be cool! Maybe get to go to train mountain someday.
don't the steam engines at train mountain have to run on propane to reduce sparks flying out and causing a lineside fire or was that lifted?
@@victoriamaynard722 yes.
Be neat if they came to train mountain and ran on the massive 37 mile line there
As much as I’d love too, the engine is not mine to decide what to do with :(
Beautiful, just beautiful!
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱.
Some people have all the fun ;-)
Can’t even imagine how much one of these costs to build
Awesome!
AWESOME.
господи какая красота, потрясающе 😀 для мужчин, которые мечтают еще раз попасть в прошлое

imagine a version of flying scotsman with two tenders and smoke deflectors
That’s why they call them engineers
It's a beautiful engine. Is it a model of any particular "Northern ", or is it freelance?
Its basis is a Alco/'Union Pacific FEF Northern class, but the only factor you can see from its basis are the castings such as the wheels and pilot.
Beautifully crafted mineature locomotive. Wonder how much it cost, and who built it.
I want one
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
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.
Questo è giocare con i treni!
Imagine that thing running over your fingers
I can't, I'm stumped.
Muito bacana 👍🏻🙌🏻
7:52 is that all unburnt coal youre shoveling into the ammo can?
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.
Toys for big boys.
Not only for boys!
Don’t know who was in joint it more the kids or the adults
Hello, where can we see this beauty and be a passenger ? Amazing train, love it
It is at the Marshall Steam Museum in Delaware
I have 60acres on a mountain I soooo want to put something like this on
Me gustan los trenes los aviones los barcos los carros motocicletas son muy hermosas coleccionandolos como piezas de exhibición en miniatura
I wonder what the total weight of this steam locomotive including the tender is :D
is there a this scale version of a 4-8-8-4? aka big boy?
Of course! But it is not the museums locomotive
Who says trains are for kids
Me
How much does something like that cost?
Brand new? $40,000. And thats just for castings, drawings and a boiler. You still have to assemble everything and build pieces yourself.

@fredbrandon1645
@fredbrandon1645I'd bet that's just the parts. Room, board, & staff extra
i wonder where can you even get those locomotives
Custom built with lots of skill and money. And then you need somewhere to run them.
Класс! Огромная работа! Спасибо за видео!
2:45 nitrous purge lol
It’s a baby
where can I get one?
No Cleveland steamers?
is this 7.5 inch track scale?
Yes
what is the horse power of a train that size ?
Where is this place? I want to bring some family and make a nice donation....and a ride.
It's the Marshall Steam Museum just outside of Hockessin, Delaware.

Чем старше мальчик, тем дороже его игрушки...ггг
the poor train doesent have a cab roof
how much does the locomotive weigh?
About a half ton fully loaded!
Bom dia...
Sou um amante de trens
Anyone, how heavy is that loco, in kg please.
About 900-1000 kg
Where do you get the money for these engines???
They usually make the steam locomotives themselves which take years and a lot of money and engineering skills
How heavy is it?
About a half ton
I’d figured it would have to be if people were riding on it that
Why did you put so much coal in there just to shovel it all out?
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.

This is nothing ..we Indians can seat a 1000 people on top of our trains
Are they yours or the ones the British left there when India kicked her out.
@tuguybear930 nothing was free ... the Brits recovered their investments many times over... and no-one invited them to our country in the first place
So true😅😅
