i love these old carbodies, and they do look a lot better, but honestly, in America at least, our modern diesels dont look that bad. The wide nosed diesel even bare a vague resemblance to these
Outstanding! What a beautifully shot and well-compiled video showing the early years of the locomotive. It's amazing that these have all been preserved and looking pristine. Using the turntable was like the railroad version of a cat-walk.
It truly warms my Heart knowing that this much historical motive power has been preserved, including the beautiful work done by Union Pacific. People who cannot appreciate this stuff and feel it should be scraped, themselves should be scraped.
The E's and F's are the most handsome faced diesel locomotives ever built, IMO. Especially that Burlington Route E5, holy smokes!! Clad in stainless steel with that angled nose, takes my breath away every time.
Absolutely right! It just screams "look at me" I am the REAL streamliner and don't you forget it! Used to run my legs off down to the 3 track mainline in Hinsdale, Il, to watch the Zephyr's fly by and I do mean fly! Great memories!
These streamlined engines had class and individualism. Nothing like the no style and bland engines we see today. My father worked for the C&O for 45 years so I was thrilled to see the C&O engine. Wish I could have seen it in motion, but no complaints here! Thank you so much for sharing this preservation.
A magnificent display. It's one thing to see the beautiful paint schemes from the glory days of railroads but to actually see them move under their own power is just plain awesome. I know the video has been around for awhile and I may have even seen it before when it was first uploaded, so I may be repeating myself here. When I clicked on this I figured most of these have to be cosmetic retorations. Watching them work is quite a thrill for a train nerd!!
My goodness! What beautiful, mesmerizing machines! A true testament to man's skill and ingenuity. Wonderful filmography/production as well. Thank you for this!
So envious of anyone who was there to witness this incredible pageant. Overcast skies were actually the best lighting to bring out the rich colors and you did a great job capturing these magnificent beauties. Wish I was there.
This is just plain fun, and thanks for sharing it! Good lord, all these historic locos look so shiny and healthy, it's a joy to see and hear them running!
@@vsvnrg3263 I kinda disagree. A lot of these are still moving passenger trains at Tourist or preservation lines, The NS ones also were doing the OCS trains on NS
@@NishnaValleyRailVideos , i'm just stirring you up. its a good thing that they still exist and still get used. in the south east states of australia the australian equivalents are still getting flogged, doing what they were designed for - notch 8. notch 8 daily.
Great video! Good show! The Burlington Silver Pilot is the epitome of the streamlining era. The different horns and whistles were a special treat. Hope they plan to put on this event every year.
I attended this event and I was absolutely floored that I was fortunate enough to see so many historic units in one place. I was doubly astounded that an Alco PA managed to come back from the grave in time to make the event.
@@DynamoProductions-trains I attended this and the heritage unit event. Both were well put-together and I saw paint schemes in motion that I thought I would only see in my dreams.
What an event! Nice of the weather to cooperate to culminate the spectacular logistics, planning and magnificent confluence of these beautifully preserved representatives of the age of the streamliners. So many classic roads represented with fabulous livery. Hats off to all who worked to make this happen, and document and upload!
Beautiful collection (if only for a few days). I'd never seen the Erie paint scheme like that before. And my favorite scheme was at 10:42 - B&O passenger blue & gray. :-)
I found the Pan Am Streamliner parked on a siding in Westford Mass. last fall. I took a bunch of pictures. This train was from my childhood and I was thrilled. It is (was) pristine.
Outstanding video, what a awesome day for you. All of the engines are beautiful: I couldn't pick just one as my favorite! Thank you for sharing this wonderful event.
I always liked the Alco carbody models better. The Nickel Plate 190 (Alco PA) is one of my all time favorites, partly due to its history. It never powered a Nickel Plate route AFAIK.
A gathering like this has turned out to be a one time deal, as several of the diesels shown here have already changed ownership. It was quite the sight
Wow, what a treat! Such an awesome gathering of beautiful and historic machines. Reminds me of an air show where so many classic airplanes are brought together. Can only imagine how many skilled and dedicated folks there are keeping these running so well. And, kudos to the organizers of the event- how in the heck do you get all these engines together at once!? Thanks for posting this.
Didn't know there were any Alco PAs left. Unforgetable, as a little kid, hearing the whine of those engines out of the station 3 blocks north past my grandma's house (about 75' from the tracks). E units were OK, but that long hood in Santa Fe warbonnet and the sound of them accelerating was just AWESOME. A-B or A-B-A on the way to San Diego. Thanks for this. UNFORGETABLE: Late in the Korean War, about 2AM, I was awoke by the the RARE sound of a loud steam whistles, and looked out the window in awe, as 3 HUGE Santa Fe steam engines roared by, hauling a military train bound for San Diego - endless flat cars loaded with tanks, cannons, and other military vehicles, plus box cars, I assume, that were laden with ammo/small arms. Another helper was cut in 3/4 back in the LONG consist. I was only 5+, but I think they were 2-10-4s. Then, very close behind, came the blair of the horns from 4 ALCO PA/PB units hauling a long troop train of old heavy weight passenger cars. Don't know how I ever got back to sleep.
70 years ago the old-timers considered such beauties intruders into the rightful domain of Steam. They would have scoffed at the idea that diesels could ever be objects of nostalgia. How wrong they would have been.
Wow!!! After watching this fabulous video of stunning diesel-electric locomotives, I feel so happy and grateful that I am the proud owner of three Overland Models HO scale brass F-unit A-B-A trainsets and 1 factory painted HO brass F-unit A-B trainset, also from Overland Models. Someday, I'll get, at least, one of the 3 F-unit A-B-A trainsets painted. Not all of the them. The painted F-unit trainset in the A-B formation is adorned in the famous AT&SF red and silver warbonnet paint scheme and looks absolutely beautiful. I plan to add more HO brass F-units, from Overland Models, to my growing HO scale brass engine and rolling stock collection. 😊 I truly enjoyed this video, and I will watch it again and again and again. 👏😁 I also want to add, your cinematography is excellent! 👍 📽️ 📸
These streamlined diesel locomotives and J class #611 are beautiful. The C&O F3 is actually Clinchfield #800 just in C&O paint scheme and a different number #8016. These streamliners are old but still looking mighty fine.
I would say the Pennsylvania and the Burlington route. The Union Pacific is nice, but I LOVE the stainless shiny steel and the streamlined front of the Burlington one.
Being from Omaha, I'm partial to UP too. Several family members worked for UP. I think they are all beautiful. The F's and E's will always be my favorites.
A bit different than UK diesels. I moved to Australia 48 years ago, we have many similar diesels, emds Goodwin AlCO. Only America could come up with such a magnificent collection of heritage diesels? A feast of colour, some beautiful liveries indeed. I would love to have been there.
That E8 515 ran our Batesville, Mississippi to Pope, Mississippi "Christmas Train". Last year though the coaches derailed, the engine was much less intact and fine, still on the rails. Grenada railway had to cancel all preceding Christmas trains on their track, so 812 returned home. It was nice seeing you every year and hope to see you again 812!
because there are unhappy people trolling the internet just looking around to upset people. they need to get a better attitude to life. this is not a perfect world. i need to add, before i worked out how the like and dislike buttons work i accidentally disliked something. i had to work out what i had done and then work out how to reverse it. i may have accidentally liked or disliked other videos prior to this without realising it. sloppy cursor work. i make a point of never "disliking" anything intentionally.
18:45 The Burlington Silver Pilot is beautiful, but that horn sounds like something out of a junior high band practice. I can fart prettier than that. Mercy!

Man I wish trains still looked like this.
So sleek.
So colorful.
The modern diesels are probably built more boxy so that they are easier to mass produce and rebuild and repair after accidents.
They do....

It would be a pleasure if I could just walk around these beautiful machines but I didn’t see The Santa Fe F-9 !
I wonder if there were attempts to bring out their only original F7 from Sacramento, California or the tribute F7 from Frisco, Texas.
Wonderful video. Atlantic Coast Line went through Florence when I was growing up. Good to see that one and all the beautiful engines.
The E5, epitome of the locomotive builders art
Hard to believe these are old trains. What a timeless design on the E's and F's -- all of them for that matter..
Diesels kind of peaked with the streamlined design
24:33 that bell snapped me back into Commuter train reality 🤣
