    493’s stack talk at 3:51 was absolutely epic!
    And that Long-Bell 3 Chime couldn’t be topped!

      Hi KJF, Thanks for watching and your nice comments. I like the whistle also except when it squeals.

    That T&P Longbell 3 Chime sounds haunting on 493!

    Hi Bob, Awesome video from the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. Great the K37 # 493 and the K28 # 473 two excellent steam locomotives. And as a special vehicle, a galloping goose. Very nicely filmed a great video. Thanks for showing and greetings from Germany

    What do the workers do during the winter?

      Hi Alowat, Thanks for watching. The railroad only shuts down at the end of October, (3 weeks) then the Cascade Canyon Express and Polar Express start about Thanksgiving. About half (90, when I worked there) of the employees are year-round. Round house and car shop keep busy with major work and maintenance for the next season. Some of the train crew work in the shops off season.
