And I don't even know you can actually power on UP 3105s diesel engine. Man, the RailGiants is a LEGIT museum of California along with the California State Railroad Museum
suprised that the prime mover on the new addition is still operational would be good if they used to move the older locomotives so that people could see the movement of such large machines sad to see 9000 looking as rusty as it is though
Honestly I would really love to see 9000 and 5021 up in running condition. Since the 9000 class have such a unique exhaust soundtrack. Since most steam engines are 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2. The 9000’s are 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3. And 5021, that whistle just sounds imposing. Makes it sound like a large and rather fast locomotive is on the tracks.
The numbers I’m referring is the sound of the chuffing. Since most steam engines have a pretty set on stone sound to them. They usually puff in a sequence of 1 and 2. The 9000 class since they had that third cylinder had a very unusual sound since that third cylinder added a third chuff to the sound. I would recommend watching Eric Trains video on the 9000 and listen to how the engines chuffs. But yes I’m aware the 9000 is a 4-12-2
This is cool i will be visiting this soon and the coolest thing about this museum is that they allow you to use the horns! btw this video deserves more likes
Awesome video! Haven't been to the rail Giants Museum in about 10 years. Gotta get out there to check it out again. Sounds to me like they need to open up the horn on the DD40 and clean it out to get it sounding right again.
The SF and SP 6 chimes sound quite similar, but at the same time, you can still hear the difference, I love both. Also, 9000 is a very unique locomotive and could use some new paint. Still love her tho, good stuff.
I heard a kid injured her ankle severely at this outdoor railroad museum on 2/10/2024. Leave your kids alone for one single minute, and they'll climb all over locomotives and cars, and fall or jump to an extremely painful injury. Some of those locomotives have the words "Keep off" written on them; there has to be a reason for that.

Did you know Up Big boy 4014 used to be there it had the same feature as the others but way deeper pitched it was restored in 2019 for the 150th anniversery of the driving of the golden spike
the reason Union Pacific donated the locomotive there, is because of when they were moving 4014 out of Railgiants, 3105 was it's replacement (if anybody didnt know that by now)
Quite a smart idea to have these bells and whistle active
Yep, makes people wanna come back
@Threepea11 I don't know how they did that with the whistle but the bells seemed like a no Brainer

5021 sounds surprisngly good considering how everything else sounds.
3450 was at low air pressure, trust me it sounds amazing at high pressure. 9000 doesnt sound right with air. needs more tbh

Union Pacific donated 3105 in operational condition, it does still move around on occasion. Yes the 9000 could use a new coat of paint.
@@threepea1151 or the plating around the boiler...
But at least 9000 survives
@@ReneeJ0912 yep would be cool to use as the on site switcher to move exhibits so they are lubricated and demonstrates moving a locomotive

@@threepea1151they are actually referring to the exhaust beat.
As much as many want to see a 9000 run it would be limited
@@OfficialDenverRioGrandeWestern it’d be limited to the more flat areas of Up, where the rails curve gently.

like A.T.S.F 3450 and up 9000 and the 0-6-0,up sd40-2

Thanks, I believe it just needs more psi, since it does have a 5 chime horn
I did see 2 videos of the dd40’s horn on minimal to full air pressure, those vids are now 8 and 10 years old so I don’t know about the horn I guess
It was nice meeting you today!
It was nice meeting you too!
@@threepea1151 I must say that SP 5021’s whistle is the very loudest of all steam locomotive giants at the Railgiants Train Museum in Pomona, CA!
@@CaliforniaCoastRailActions it is indeed!
UP 4014: and i took that personally
Really wish these locomotives can start running again 😟
Some of them are in bad condition. 9000 for example
I know like 4014 because in 2013 4014 was there at railgiants meusem and that was when it wasn'tworking yet
Saw you there today. Me with the BNSF sweatshirt. ☺
Hol’ up I went on wikipedia and it said that the museum reopens next month. Guess wikipedia was wrong
Remember 3105?
He was that after Big Boy moved out of this museum
The SF and SP 6 chimes sound quite similar, but at the same time, you can still hear the difference, I love both. Also, 9000 is a very unique locomotive and could use some new paint. Still love her tho, good stuff.
Thanks
9000 could use another cosmetic restoration. her valve gear has gotten pretty rusty since her last restoration
Yea, 9000 does
I think the DD40 has a Prime 990. Because S5Ts were pretty rare on UP in the 60s to 80s.
In a video about the dd40s, it said they wore s5t’s or a s3lrro, this one is Leslie, it has the super python logo on a upclose pic I have
Oh ok. Thanks for the info

I wish UP #3985 Challenger was sold to this museum and put it on display.
Same, I talked to the museum, they would take the 3985 anytime, it would not be sold, something that would be given to a museum would be donated.
well at the moment 3985 was donated to another railroad for restoration so,
Well it's in Illinois now
The system of schools train museum I ever seen on the go there one day with my mom
0:12 what was that sound before the whistle blew?
Someone blew a toy whistle next to my camera right before

Went here today!
In my words, the centennial had the best horn! What was your fav? Love the video btw!
The centennials horn isnt at full blast, there are some vids of it with a full blast i believe. I like 5021’s a lot, the 3105 is also my fave, Thanks!
Is the psi low on 3450? The whistle doesn’t sound strong.
Yea they lower it after a certain time

He's asking why is the 3105 operational.
@@parjotheindonesialocomotive123 Union Pacific donated the locomotive to the museum in operable condition, so it’s still operational to this day.
