    WOW!! Some great engines. Partial to the CB&Q Hudson, B&M R-1 and the Godshall 2-8-0's.

    Looks like these trains have a good on-time record for lunch.

    Fabulous !!! I can't even imagine the man-hours taken to make these engines. Hats off to these enthusiasts !!!

    What does it take to join this club? It's the closest one to me I can find, albeit 3 hours away. I'd love to go here once I get a train.

      This is not a club, it’s a private railroad owned by a single party. You would have to contact them regarding visitation to the property.

    Anybody out there with a GTW U-3-b, K-4-a, or U-1-c ? Also, I have a large 8x10 format /professionally mounted B&W photo of 5629 parked next to the old roundhouse in Milwaukee Jct. taken somewhere in 1969. It's beautiful and pristine but it sits behind my couch since I have nowhere to hang it. All you'll need is a couple of mat's, frame and glass. All offers will be considered to a good home.

    Looks absolutely fantastic! I find these videos fascinating - I’m a member of a miniature engineering club in the UK, and our side of the hobby seems to be very different to yours! Our locos are usually far smaller.
    Keep up the fantastic videos!

    how long does it usually take from getting a steam engine out of the shed/trailer to pulling away under its own steam? what sort of prep work do owners have to do to get to that stage aswell?

    • @donquixotedelamancha6596
      @donquixotedelamancha6596 4 роки тому +2

      About forty five minutes to an hour to unload, prep, fire up, and pop off both safety valves.

    • @jamesm6638
      @jamesm6638 3 роки тому +2

      well the bigger ones do weigh about as much as a small car, so it makes sense

  • @sky173
    @sky173 4 роки тому

    Beautiful. What do one of these steam locos weight empty? That's a lot of metal!
    ...and what scale?

    • @donquixotedelamancha6596
      @donquixotedelamancha6596 4 роки тому

      Those are 7.5 inch gauge 1 to 2.5 inch scale and most of those are 1200 to 2000 lbs empty.
