The potential that steam trains have on hauling is crazy compared to a diesel engine. But I do understand that with the way the world is on protecting the environment. They are awesome to see though.
@@joseluisjimenez8045 Yes!! It was very impressive to see the train in person. The sound of the train shaking through your body is a feeling like no other. Hello from Chicago, IL. And Merry Christmas!!
That’s why we keep building submarines so we don’t lose the technology. The diesel engine replaced the steam engine and the nuclear power plant replaced the diesel engine.

But kept increasing their pay and graft to the government. Ayn Rand lived thru the Russian Revolution, disturbing to read.
What a beautiful Union Pacific train!! Kudos to that company for keeping Big Boy and for maintaining the train in eye popping heart moving condition.🌺🤗🚂🚂🚂🚂💕💕💕👍🖖
You better save these engines because there's nobody smart enough to build it today

Why build? when we have successors.
These machines are actually really simple how they work
@janikmertens9425 I'll agree but common sense is not so common anymore 😕

@@thomasschade805 oh ok.
¿Qué hace una diésel en esa composición? ¿La 4014 no tiene suficiente potencia?¿Por precaución por si hay una avería?
The diesel train was there to insure a safe travel in case anything were to happen to the Big Boy, they could still keep it moving.
Giant.
Nice video n I scrb you 👍♥️
