- "Steam locomotives held the fascination of generations before leaving Canadian rails in 1960 forever. No form of technology merged man and machine more closely. The myriad classes and sub classes of motive power provided many of us with a lifetime of interest.
Scenes such as those captured by the camera of John Freyseng, almost 30 years ago, are gone but not forgetten in this video. Return with us to those days of trackside euphoria and Canadian Steam On The Move."

Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what the orator is describing. Remember the "Singing Break Men" 🎸🎶 Jimmie Rogers. Whom was a genuine break men till changing careers to a singing entertainer career. ( 1926 thru 1933 ) Most memorable song " Break Man's Blues 😭 ". Had the good fortune to ride 2 different steam locomotives 🚂 pulling scenic route train rides . Smoky mountains national park. Durango & Silverton Colorado. Very relaxing viewing the wonderfully scenic beauty. 😉. Viewing this presentation from the comfort zone of my computer room. Along the " Space Coast " 🚀of Florida 🐊🐊. Wishing viewers R.R. Employees/photography crew. A safe/healthy/prosperous ( 2024 ) 🌈🎉😉.
How SAD, they're all gone now.
Good footage of steam in the southern Ontario area I did not live in this time but enjoyed watching it. I particularly liked the small clip of vandorf bridge and the northern going over it on the bala sub I don’t see very many photos of the bala sub in this era,
I have the video footage of your footage from a few years ago and you had some footage of lorneville jct and a very brief clip of the bala sub just north of Beaverton where it parallels the midland sub really good footage
Great footage - love to see pt 3
Do you have part 3?
Thanks for your offering! But a few corrections, if I may, regarding GTW: The streamlined GTW U-4-b 4-8-4’s were 6405-10, which amounts to six locos, not five. Yes, 5629 did survive the mass scrappings and found usage as a privately-owned excursion loco, only to be scrapped in August 1987. 5632 is still displayed in Durand.
