    Hello viewers,
    I just want to clarify what i said if no one saw the outro for the video. I won't be doing other railroads steam locomotives in 10 words or less, seeing as those would get repetitive easily, and would likely take alot more work to make. The only reason i did the Pennsylvania steam locomotives for this series is because i had this idea in mind. This will likely be the only 10 words or less video to cover steam locomotives, as i intended to do strictly diesel locomotive builders, with the Pennsy steamers being an exception i did for fun. So yeah, please don't expect me doing a "Every N&W Steam Locomotive Reviewed" video anytime soon, your asking for too much from me.
    Take care. (also like to apologize for the screw-up at 4:02, meant to put in 2-10-0 instead of 2-8-0)

      ​@@EmilyChaosDrivr Actually they're feed water tanks. Basically they take in used steam to superheat the water in the boiler. Makes the engine burn less coal and in turn outputs more power. Most engines usually had just 1 tank but the I1s instead used 2. It's another reason why the I1s were known to be "slow but having a lot of pull"

    @KPen3750 Рік тому +3

    Actually fun fact, the K5 has a worse factor of adhesion than the K4's which meant they slipped like no ones business, almost as bad at the duplex locos and also why only 2 were ever built.

    • @ThePTBRULES
      @ThePTBRULES 3 місяці тому

      The duplexes didn't slip because of bad adhesion, it was that they two throttles. There is video of the big boy slipping last year, with the from drivers spinning, but the rear still working. But the 4000 series had one throttle, so the engineer has to back off both engines to get the first pair of drivers back under control. With a PRR Duplex, you could have the same event occur, but only have to back down one throttle, as you see on the videos of T1s, etc.
