Super collection of film clips, very nice work 👍

Brilliant upload as per usual, however, next time, I want to hear you sing this ykwim? 🤠🤠🤠🦘🦘🦘🐨🐨🐨

haven't seen a TTTE MV for a good while.. Gives me 2014 vibes

If you guys like this type of content then let me know in the comments and I'll look into making more music videos

What are andré chapelon's official titles on OP and the SNSF?

Actually she's at the RailGiants She is still there And also i'm not a hate comment I'm just a let you know comment

Beautiful video as per usual Sir 🤠

Pennsy was trying to help out it's long-time builder, Baldwin. Unfortunately Baldwin wasn't up to the job.

In an alt-universe where WWII didn't depricate the steam railroad manpower and maintenance infrastructure, the Baldwin/Lima/ALCO/ and even minor builders would've dominated. They failed the transition to diesel-electric not because railroads didn't want powerful locos or weren't willing to maintain them, but because the railroads actually couldn't!!! Something about having every man under 45 drafted and then everything being run (efficiently) literally into the ground by the ODT and wartime shortages. But ever steam machinist and maintainer left would be retired by 1965 -- and anyone else left with skill in repair or fabrication would be working in defense/aerospace for much more than the railroads could afford. I wrote a 50 page thesis on this once but really this 1 paragraph comment on YT about covers it X-)

Baldwin road units survived into the early 1970s on CP Rail lines in BC.

Was it 'leema' or 'lyema' . . . ?

Something either is unique, or isn't. You can't have 'more' or 'less' unique.

The Centipedes had the same wheel arrangement as the Great Northern Ry. Class W-1 electric locomotives, which were graduates of General Electric's Erie Works in 1947. I'd bet a dollar to a donut that the W-1 and the Baldwin Centipedes have some connection, even though the Centipede's electrical parts came from PRR online customer Westinghouse. Fun Fact: The double-ended GN W-1 class (2 units) were the largest electric locomotives to ever operate in the U.S., and that includes the E60s used by Amtrak. They fit like wadding down a musket barrel in Cascade Tunnel.

How long until you do a video on the train from fortnite? 🦘🐨🪃

big brick

Seaboard Airline used these as well and I believe had them longer

What was bro doing up so early 😮🐨

Epic failure. The Baldwin Centipede was (as Trains Magazine memorably called it) "The Big Diesel That Didn't" (a play on "The Little Engine That Could."). Great video!

Where were the fuel tanks, and how much did they hold? Looks like the capacity had to be in the hundreds of gallons.

If Baldwin were Smart and they made sure the Centipedes were good to begin with, some of them may have survived to this day, but unfortunately, that is not the case.

Three of NdeM's lasted until 1971. As much as I like them, it was a doomed design. Baldwin was trying to design diesel locomotives like steam locomotives, and it showed. EMC/EMD made the leap to offering just a couple of basic, mass-produced designs with a few basic options, and did the research to ensure they would be good designs, and this is why they beat out Alco and Baldwin.

They were also a "basic maintenance" headache with all of those brake shoes that had to be replaced every few thousand miles.

The Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 in Tuscan red (with the five gold stripes and keystone, as shown in your video) was my favorite locomotive growing up. Art Deco powered by pantograph. It doesn't get any better.

There were no B units. The locos--all A units with cabs--were intended to be run in pairs.

Why all the wheels?

Blows me away that you never mentioned the Seaboard Air Line’s centipedes! Very sharp looking units on the SAL!

I remember making this one

Easily the best EMD Locomotives

I've waited for this all day Mr Kerry 🦘🐨🇦🇺🪃🤠

If only they were built in a Production line method rather than how Baldwin Did it. Then they may have lasted into Amtrak Era.

EMD would have never designed something like this.. They were totally committed to diesels and had no legacy steam business to draw from or to influence design. All of the legacy steam builders failed at the diesel business.

The Pennsy was the Union Pacific of the East when it came to wanting oversized, oddball locomotives that turned out to be complete crap. The UP oddities C855, U50 and U50C come to mind.

No this turkey was never going to fly.

Amazing as per usual 🪃🐨🦘🇦🇺🤠

Brilliant upload, this is awesome 🦘🇦🇺🐨🪃🤠

What were the little pantographs for?

Great work pookie 🦘🤠🐨🇦🇺🪃

Fascinating information! This was effectively a prototype for the British Class 40, not a place any railway authority should want to be. It had a low axle load due to its multiplicity of axles (2Co-Co2), but the loco power/weight ratio is dismal. The Class 40 was also found to be underpowered and had a rather lacklustre career unlike its cousin the Class 37 which is still at work today.

Cracking upload good sir! Fantastic content as per usual! 🐨🤠🦘

Brilliant upload Mr Kerry

The most powerful steam locomotive in Australia in terms of tractive effort.

Good but pleae be careful Al the 57s were superheated, and that device on the right hand side of the smokebox is the compound air compressor. :-)

The N2 is one of Gresley’s most acclaimed locomotives, although I don’t think many people really think of it as a Gresley design. Hopefully the GNR legend will be returning to steam not too far in the future.

And don’t forget one was sent to a little island called sodor to help build the railway on there

Norfolk & Western railroad was the King of steam locomotives, they designed & built all of their own steam locomotives.

I don't know what 296 sq ft is, but the grate area of the D57's was 65 sq ft (plenty big enough to need a mechanical stoker. The grate area is the bottom surface of the firebox, ie the bit that actually has coal on it. 296 might be the total heating area of the box, which is all the other sides and top surfaces combined, where it's in contact with the boiler water and can heat it.

A photo of my Grandad stood next to his Cardean class hangs on my wall.

1 made to today but is not in amazing condition but at least Union Pacific cared to keep 1 around and also remember that Union Pacific also keeps 4014 and 844 plus 3985 in steam

My great uncle was one of the designers of this train
