What a nice video. I grew up going to Knott's and smashing pennies on the tracks. Worked a summer as a conductor on the train before my first job in my actual career and while technically we weren't supposed to do it, I couldn't say no to guests who wanted one. Would always sneak one on the track for them, or pre smash them and swap it as a magic trick for the kids. I still have my hat - had to buy it online myself because the only spare that kbf provided was too small.
GREAT footage, my wife & I are Season pass holders and really enjoy all of the trains at Knott's we visited yesterday Dec. 30th we just missed you. I posted a couple of videos also from previous days and hope to post more especially when #340 breaks out. I was told it was working but they might wait till March?????. You just got another subscriber from me :)
Thanks for the comment! Knotts Berry farm is an awesome place. I was actually surprised to see 41 running because i thought that since 340 was newly operation they be using her instead.
1. Very smooth first shot! 2. 0:52 Wheel slip already... I remember in my CN 89 vid, 89 slipped without pulling anything. 3. 1:19 Nice 4. 1:33 Well thats just neat! 5. 3:23 Jeez! Where’s the Sans? 6. 4:06 Chama NM?

Slightly white walled, yet smooth and simple. 13. Nice shot! I’ll have to try more of these kind. I haven’t done many of these, but they’re fun to film. 14. 10:30 GG #3! 😮 15. 10:45 “WHAT IS THAT ON YOUR HAND?!” XD 16. 11:59 Felt the warmth of the boiler? 17. 12:40 Like that shot with the two different forms of rail transportation! 18. 13:09 340 on the right? 19. 14:07 “Durango” Wonder what that’s referencing... 20. 15:35 Did one of these with 63. Well.... something like that... 21. 17:58 Ooo 22. 18:03 Pretty marker lights +500 points 23. 18:11 Like how the steam us clearly outlined by some mysterious light. 24. 18:48 Woh 25. 20:17 Well... there’s a blooper... 26. 20:38 Those lanterns (also called marker lights?) tho
1. Thanks! I usually dont like to go without a tripod but i had to for this trip. 2. Im Pretty sure oil and grease from the locomotive dripped down onto the rails... hence all the slipping around the depot area. 3. Her cylinders are in very rough shape..... rip 4. All you have to do is ask and they'll let you in! 5 . I think you mean sand.... but i guess they just didnt have the sanders on, even if they did i know there is sand in the engine because there was sand around the rails. 6. These cars are Original D&RGW cars. The D&RGW named that coach Chama for the service-area of the time, now what is the C&TSRR 7. *slip* 8. *slip* 9. *slip* 10. THanks! it was a nice shot but i have to clean some dust off my lense 11. Thanks again! I rested my camera on the fence if you couldn't tell lol 12. Simple, Sweet, Gets the job done :D 13. (plz insert timestamp) (Ill assume 9:07) Thanks! This shot was actually filmed right out side a service pet relief area XD 14. Goose #3 is the only one that left Colorado 15. "What is that on your head"****** But, its my s a n t a h a t 16. Yes i did! In the heat of the sun it just made it warmer 17. yee, RGS C-19 and RGS Goose 18. Indeed, tis D&RGW 340 19. Well like i said earlier, authentic D&RGW equipment sooooooo 20. Its a really neat shot when they come straight at you. 21. n i g h t 22.yos 23.

Train Chamber 1. Thought it may have been mounted on a gimbal if I’m honest... 2. Oh... well that explains it 3. oof 4. social introvert... out of my box. Thats why you don’t see many cab stuff in my vids (I think??) 5. Mmmmaaaaaaaayyyyybbeeeee 10. Didn’t even notice the dust 11. Well, now that you say that, I do notice it. 13. Yea... 9:07. sorry... 15. Head* Blame my hearing loss on being in the high school band... 18. Saw 340 in an America by Rail dvd. Sister engine to 346 of the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, Colorado I believe...
@@JerryDoesThings_1604 1. It might be the auto stabilization lense in my camera :p 4. I'm usually like that too, but when i go to these railroads i feel like they can understand the view of a railfan. Whats the worst they can do, say no? 5. or is it that skeletal dude from undertale 10. The little specs really stick out to me... 15. o o f 18. I think they are sisters, even 41 & 340 are, 41 was just sold to the RGS and 340 wasnt, theyre both C-19s built in 1881 after all.
Great video Joe! Love the whistle on this little guy!! Not a huge fan of the new pilot on this locomotive. It looks like a pilot a switcher would have and it doesn’t even have a coupler.
Thanks! and de whistel is good but it could be better if they can blow it louder. The New Pilot makes the locomotive seem like shes missing something.......................... not just a coupler it just feels naked

Neat story! Thanks for watching.
Great video. Next year, 2020, I have to go visit that railroad. The only gripe I have with 41 is that there is no front coupler. Oh well.
Thanks! Im not a fan of that pilot either, but they do have 340 up and running again, i was surprised to see 41 running.
Awesome whistle
Agreed!
I just like how there’s a train robbery going on and Jo is just like *“nah fam, I ain’t about that life. Imma keep railfanning......”*
That is true I didnt care lol
This is really cool, I just visited knotts berry farm and saw 340. Gotta say these are some really nice engines that are thankfully in operation
Agreed! I wanna go back because you can get a cab ride in their engines
That would be really fun, would like them to blow the whistles at full blast more often
@@TheBNSFengineer Not just full blast but maybe more often too. They only blow the whistle around that one curve near the shops
Agreed
Good job.I love it.

@@TrainChamber You're welcome. I agree.

3 Foot Narrow Gauge. RGS 41 Used to run in Colorado until she was purchased by Knotts
@@TrainChamber oh thanks I can tell the difference between standard gauge and narrow gauge but sometimes it confuses me my bad😅
