It’s amazing how a machine of that magnitude and intricate could be designed and built without computers? A great engineering feat for the late thirties and early forties. Hope it’s around for my great grandchildren to see. Nice video thank you.
Impressive. Living in the UK I've been lucky enough to see the Flying Scotsman come through my town of March, Cambridgeshire but I would love to see this amazing train in the flesh. A truly beautiful piece of machinery living and breathing.
The sound of that whistle sends a chill up my spine thinking about the stories my Dad told me about his days as a 10 yr old child hopping freight trains from one city to the other during the Great Depression. The man should have wrote a book, he described the HoBo camps along the way and the people he met, and their hard luck stories.

Absolutely superb. I could listen to that whistle all day. It literally screams North American railroading.

Very clever camera views. You make UA-cam a great medium for the hobby. Thank you.
Fantastic images. Many thanks for sharing them.
Amazing!
Pomona's Big Boy looking good.
