For the eighth episode of this adventure, we are going to visit the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, located in Strasburg, Pa. I've never been a big fan of the Pennsylvania Railroad, so this was not on my bucket list previously. But I have to say, I was not disappointed with the visit at all! They have a great collection of exquisitely restored equipment nicely displayed in a modern facility. F...

40:45 I see 5313’s tender
It's THE OLDEST continuously operating railroad in the USA.
Watching this sure makes me excited for my visit as I'll be there a week from today. While Skookum & number 2 won't be there, I will be seeing number 2 the next day when I visit ORHC.
Looks beautiful - Is that all along Clear Creek, or down a side canyon?
@@MichaelWilsonAZ All clear creek. There are no side canyons with water.
@@ehadder Wonderful - Thank you!
Last time I saw it there was a tree growing out of the dome
It's ridiculous that this has happened to this many people. A recall should have occurred
@@siberwolf33 I agree. I’m surprised this is one of my most watched video’s!
Epic
Beautiful model
why the music
That whistle, it sounds the same, but it also sounds a bit different.
For a second I thought the second freight train was gonna pass underneath the first.
bro I was on that train
i live 10 minutes away from here. I go all the time!
Carson is a very smart young man. He has the operation of steam locomotives down pat. He asks good questions. Fun to listen to him. I see him being a steam engineer in the future 🙂
wtf wants crap on the walls other than paint?
hello mr swain
Yep that’s him
what a beauty
334 should also run again
334? I don’t think I heard of that one before.
Beautiful little engine; and that whistle seems to me just right for that wide-open, wild-looking territory. . .
I might have been in that train
Yk I think I was on that train dude
Steam may well still be the most cost effective traction where traffic is light and the route is not worth electrifying.
Best ever explanation I have ever seen on this topic
BB when she was "brand new".
This is great bro thank you !🙏
Sounds amazing!
I don't think its normal for a Shay to slip perhaps #11 is overdue for maintenance
Man itd be awsome if she could make the Louisville to Indianapolis run on the old pennsy line thats now owned by the L&I
I love that idea!
What has happened to the original passenger equipment?
Where's the smoke
they change cylinders and pistons faster than my mechanic for my car
I’ve always wanted to go here but that would be a travel because I live in maine
That has to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen and now I want to make one.
It sounds like her original CB&Q 5 Chime to me
why is the engineer pulling the string in the cab to make the whistle go
Its amazing what they are doing at the east broad top.
Man way to clean in that air box somethings wrong , they must be doing the pm’s ( jokes)
i got a Excursion program ,
Kinda rare for a Shay engine to slip
Indeed. But i guess this video shows that even a shay CAN experience wheel slip
The wet rails are from water being poured on the wheels of the engine. This is done to keep them cool from the brakes being applied while coming down the mountain.
good work
As far as I'm concerned, there is no 20th century steam locomotive that is more all American then a Baldwin built Mikado.
Awesome video Eric
I saw 4960 yesterday, it was my first time seeing a Standard Gauge live steam locomotive in action. I was happy to see tons of people at the station to see the locomotive. Smelled like Burgers though cuz of the fuel I'm guessing
Yes, it’s the vegetable oil fuel that has the unusual smell.
She better go to Strasburg. Then she’ll meet her sister 3750.
Thank you this was really easy and only took me 15-20min to fix
Have been there. Quite amazing!
Fabulous 2 videos describing the science in real world terms that makes steam locomtives function so mind boggling-ly well...Still hard to fathom how 300 years ago alot of smart folks figured this all out! Amazing.
Thanks for that information! I was always curious about how the locomotives distributed power throughout their train. 👍
I love Shays. Creeping along at 5 mph, exhaust sounding like they're going 70.
