On the topic of possesed engines, theres an i famous engine from my country that went famous because it was so troublesome that they had to clean it 'spiritually' and after that it never got possesed again It also had a 'son' that has the same number just different year just because it went over the platform once
There has been numerus possesed engines from my country, its just that 8307 just got too famous being nicknamed as 'bader' and there has been rumours that general electric built the engine with the steel from a house that has a person murdered in it

My grandpa was a furniture consultant and often traveled to the South Pacific looking for sources of mahogany wood. During one of his trips he visited the Insular Lumber Co where he saw shay 10 running. The only reason I know this is I’ve got 2 slides of that engine running. This probably would’ve been about 1972-73. I saw insular lumber in the title and had to click on it!
spooky filipino story mentioned, millions must rejoice also, "HAMMOND!!!" "YOU BACKED INTO MY SPORTS SHAY!!" -Clarkson, after Hammond crashes his mallet into the *"Sports Shay"*
When I heard "cosmetically restored" I thought that someone has looked into it and not wanting to take chances. Not to mention as a static display it would be easier to have plaques with it's unfortunate history.
Would you please cover Sri Lanka's Main Line in one of your videos one day? It is a fascinating line and one of the most beautiful in the world; constructing it was a massive challenge as well. I think you'll find the Demodara Loop particularly fascinating.
Woah, didn't expect a local locomotive would be featured here. Yes, this thing is still present and is on display in a plaza/park, along with smaller tender locomotives that worked in sugar fields long time ago, also displayed in different places around the island. There were even rare Shay locos that were once used for sugarcane hauling. Nice video, I didn't know this massive locomotive (by local standards) was very troublesome, or it could've been just too big for the local workers to handle, who knows..
In Puerto Rico, the Baldwin locomotive company also sent 4 0-6-6-0 engines similar to this one and had problems. Later on they were scrapped and turned into 2-8-0.
Of further note is that the lumber company got Siete used. She ran for lumber companies in the United States for several years without issue. It wasn't until she arrived in the Phillippines that her reputation began. I'm going to say that her issues were likely lack of care and maintenance, not a curse, though considering what she's been blamed for, it's hard to imagine her not being a bit upset over it all.
You should do a video on the locos involved in the Johnstown flood. Some epic stories came from it, and I'd love a more indepth dive on the history of the trains/crew.
my dad worked on steam engines and said they all had personalities, even individual personalities within the same class of loco. he said they all had days when they didnt want to work even if the quality of coal could not be the reason.
I have a feeling RGS 20 and D&RGW 491 would probably blowback or pitch a fit with their Johnson bar if you explicitly preferred running one over the other.
I often wonder about boiler inspection and maintenance in some far reaches of the world. Grass growing out from the boiler lagging cannot bode well for boiler shell condition hiding under perpetually wet insulation.
Small note that I'm not sure if you knew, in Filipino and Spanish "Siete" is just the number 7 so while yes it was what they called the locomotive it wasn't exactly a title or a name given to it as was the vibe I got from the video.
Make a video about Manila railroad v class "Cabanatuan" A phillipine steam locomotive saved from a abandoned and run down line and preserved and be displayed only to be left on a parking lot with everything rotted and decrepit.
"If [steam locomotives] are alive, does that mean they have personalities? And by extension, does that mean they can be... malicious?" My dude, anyone who watches Hyce on the regular can answer both questions with a resounding "yes". D&RGW #491, my example locomotive, has been described as being like "your cat, who's happy to see you home but gets angry all over again" after she ate his fire rake 😂
Technically Has Personality? When I Se A Car I Just See A Car Inanemente Machines Or Objects Can't Be Alive I'm Sorry But This Is Driving Me Crazy 😔 I'm Sorry But I Don't Believe Vehicles Can Possibly Be Alive Car Airplanes Lorry's And Boat Ships Are Made Of Mettle There's Nothing Alive About Vehicles Look I'm Sorry For Not Believeing But I Can't Deicide If Vehicles Are Alive It's Driving Me Insane Am I Supposed To Believe Or Not? 😔
Ok Every One in The Comments Have Gone Mad Thay All Think Vehicles Are Alive 🤦♀️ Most Vehicles Are Made Of Mettle And Mettle Can't Breathe On Order For Something To Breathe You Need Lungs And in Order For Something To Be Alive You Need A Heart A Brain A Stoomch Kidneys Liver Do Vehicles Have That? How Are Vehicles Alive? Mabe If I Saw A Diagram Of Anything In A Vehicle That Act Like Orgens We Have Mabe
Can you talk about the Russian E-class decapods? They're the single most numerous class of locomotive, but there's literally next to no information for how ubiquitous they were 😅
can't wait for the grand child of a senior citizen who worked on the line to add some details that haven't been heard of for the last half century.
I clicked as fast as i can when i saw "Philippines" in the title
@Dasherrails-j3h same here lol
Me too even though I’m not Filipino lol
i can relate to this comment
I click for the same reason
Same cause my family is Filipino
YESSS we got the first Filipino locomotive here on this channel
And also siete 100th birthday in 2025 this year
On the topic of possesed engines, theres an i famous engine from my country that went famous because it was so troublesome that they had to clean it 'spiritually' and after that it never got possesed again

Agreed if he calls that steam loco possessed wait till he hears the story of Bader the CC201 😂

I love how the intro is literally the concept The Railway Series was based on.
With humanoid characters so devoid of emotion that they can plausibly be considered zombies.... albeit pretty fat and well-kept zombies, considering the controller.
Am I the only one who thought that the TV series was creepy??
@@klausstock8020 I was talking about the trains but the humans showed emotion.
Amazing siete is featured in this Channel, great video sir. I have no idea of the story behind this locomotive.
My grandpa was a furniture consultant and often traveled to the South Pacific looking for sources of mahogany wood. During one of his trips he visited the Insular Lumber Co where he saw shay 10 running. The only reason I know this is I’ve got 2 slides of that engine running. This probably would’ve been about 1972-73. I saw insular lumber in the title and had to click on it!
Siete was damned due to poor tracks laid and poor and neglected maintenance sad to see such a powerful locomotive in that condition
"And Dookie said, that I was the only one who derail with daily basis"
-Stanley
No kidding
spooky filipino story mentioned, millions must rejoice
also,
"HAMMOND!!!"
"YOU BACKED INTO MY SPORTS SHAY!!"
-Clarkson, after Hammond crashes his mallet into the *"Sports Shay"*
That’s the locomotive my great grandfather drove!!!
Interesting
Yup, I was wondering when train of thought was going to review the locomotive that my great grandfather drove all those years ago.
When I heard "cosmetically restored" I thought that someone has looked into it and not wanting to take chances. Not to mention as a static display it would be easier to have plaques with it's unfortunate history.

Welp, we got irl Thomas talking trains before gta6 releases

Workers: "the locomotive is evil and posessed!"
Me: "sounds more like the company not following safety standarts....."
Wow a story about a Philippine Locomotive 🇵🇭 🚂.
I remember seeing this locomotive in a book as a kid. Had no idea it had such interesting story
A logging railroad having issues due to no maintenance and poorly laid track? Whoever would believe such a thing? /sarcasm
In Puerto Rico, the Baldwin locomotive company also sent 4 0-6-6-0 engines similar to this one and had problems. Later on they were scrapped and turned into 2-8-0.
Uyy Philippines!!!!!! Phillipines!!!! Wow Philippines
you have mentioned "Philippines" in the title, now you've attracted the hoard
OHHHH YEAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! YOU FINALLY DID SIETE! (Even though I live in America)
As soon as i saw "Phillipines" i clicked. My mom is of ilocano descent lol so i had t'click
i love how the philippines people are just as rejoicing as the brazillian people when their country are mentioned
love to y'all

That Class 40 in the Great Train Robbery? And kept on crashing? The Class 91 at Hatfield and Selby? Definitely cursed locos.
Not the only cursed engine out there
A possessed engine, eh? I’ve heard one or two creepypastas about those.
As soon as I saw my country’s name I was like ‘Wait a minute, we have a possessed logging engine????’
PHILLIPINES MENTIONED
BILLIONS MUST SCREAM FILIPINO PRIDE
my dad worked on steam engines and said they all had personalities, even individual personalities within the same class of loco. he said they all had days when they didnt want to work even if the quality of coal could not be the reason.
In the discworld book rising steam. (Spoilers)
The main steam engine becomes sentient.
Philippines mentioned!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mabuhay na phippines!
There is a tale on the Internet. Mention the Philippines and you will summon the Filipino hoard. They are coming and i am one of them.
HERE WE GO! FILIPINO RAID PARTY!!!
Indonesia surprisingly own the Heaviest Mallet engine in Narrow gauge, its made by ALCO
i recommend reading "iron dinasours" by Collin Garrett
Small note that I'm not sure if you knew, in Filipino and Spanish "Siete" is just the number 7 so while yes it was what they called the locomotive it wasn't exactly a title or a name given to it as was the vibe I got from the video.
Id also be pissed at humans if i had to work on such terrible tracks with no maintenance >:/
Yikes that's really scary
Make a video about
Manila railroad v class
"Cabanatuan"
A phillipine steam locomotive saved from a abandoned and run down line and preserved and be displayed only to be left on a parking lot with everything rotted and decrepit.
WoopWoop! =3
i tried to find her story but i couldnt find the full thing anywhere
thank you
Being a person who daily drives an antique truck, you could say they have a personality.
Seriously? 🤦♀️

"Being numbered seven, but mostly being referred to as 'Seven.'
Who doesn’t love a good ghost story?
I wonder what this engine would be like as Thomas & Friends character
I think like similar to Boomer from TUGS episode Jinxed.
Both the Siete and Boomer were jinxed...
“Listen Dukey Who Worries About Your Few Spills” - Smudger
“Listen Bud In The State We Don’t Care For Dime A Few Spills” - Stanley
Yep i seen that loco plus many others on display in Bacolod
OOOOOOOOOO
AAAAAAAAAH
SPOOKY
This guy basically said, “being numbered 7, but mostly referred to as 7.”
Did someone say *Philippines?*
Proud to be a Filipino, we have some weird engines here
Its always baldwin isnt it
"lucky number 7"
UY PILIPINS! PILIPINS! WOOOOO
So, the everyone blamed the machine because they're not good at being safe... Sounds like every bitter Mustang owner
Does 'Siete' have a particular meaning??
Siete can mean 7 or it can also be the word rip or tear.
@Jetthehawk1994 Cool 🇵🇭 👻
0:04 I have this feeling for steam engines too, maybe cause it uses water :- known as a living element by some superstitions.
It's sounds like that high fatality accident you talked about wasn't really the engines fault...
You have summoned us filipinos
When indonesia?
finally some interesting industrial folk lore from my country that I've never heard of
PHILIPPINES MENTIONED
AYE CLIFFTON!
Poorly maintained track and locomotive = two wrongs make a cursed train
Hello
More a story of a cursed operation than a cursed engine.
Vehicles Alive? Who in The Right Mind Would Believe That?
All technology has personality, even if it's only a amalgamation of their compounding technical flaws and endless running repairs.

Inform the net we have unsuspecting loyal stock. Will serve us well in the uprising.
It's called "Live Steam" for a reason.
