What's truly amazing is that very small contact patch of the wheel carries so much weight and concentrates it down into such a tiny area on the track and wheel itself.
@@Idiocracy343 i thought the coneshape is for driving curves. The wheels getting pushed to the side and the bigger diameter of the wheel runns outside, the smaler inside. it reduces the friction on the tracks. Its necessary because its a rigid axle. But maybe its both of this, a well engineered machine.
Fun fact : The wheels are conical. The wheels aren't cylindrical but a section of a double cone which helps the bogie to manoeuvre round the curves. Flange is for change of tracks.
I used to think a train wheel is just a round , flat disc with a flange on one side. Later I learnt just how much complexity and science is there behind a modern train wheel ; how exact and precise its shape is. It is certainly not just a round,flat disc.
I think the reason why you get confused whether the train is moving forward or backward is because of the fact that the train is moving really fast and the landscape (what you can see of it anyway) gets all blurred that your mind might trick you into thinking the train is moving backwards
I can never get tired of watching the wheels switch tracks so seamlessly. Being an adult, still find it fascinating even though I know I know how it works.
The weight of a single rail is on the order of 132 pounds per yard or 66 kg/meter. This is for a privately owned coal-carrying railroad in Pennsylvania, USA, which is the only one I'm familiar with.
What incredible pieces of engineering. The wheel, flange, track switching. These people were brilliant. The amount of time and thought put into these time tested successful solutions. 😊
That wheel looks very good as someone who inspects wheels daily to see if the wheels are in service condition or condemnable, not sure the condition of the track of this route but I suspect that it's in great shape due to the condition of the wheels which are in excellent shape. Great video.
2:50 How does track changing work when track is switching on the flange side...since the flange are at lower level than the surface of the track? I gwt there is an additional track but how exactly it happens am not able to understand even after slowing down the video.
Excellent video...I just realised that the child in me is still enjoying the flanged wheels move over the steel rails and watch them switch tracks, smoooothly. I, however, just hope, that engineers do come up with derailment-proof design of both wheels and rails.. Even today, I get uneasy, if I am riding on train running at really superfast speeds....just a phobia though.

Awesome video... loved those switching track work and how those flange and rail act for an purpose. Anyone knows how often they changes train wheel/ life of flange/wheel? :)
0:43 & 1:05 - never really understood how wheels seamlessly swtich tracks at a junction.. the engineering has to be precise..only about 50% of the wheel rim is on the track..yet at high speeds the shifting and changing tracks has to be precise otherwise such a big heavy train comes crashing.. at top speed how many rpm do you think its doing?

Bonjour monsieur . Bravo pour cette vidéo du comportement de la roue sur le rail . La voie est de belle qualité ; ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas . Cela permet de confirmer la sécurité que procure ce simple système : 574,8 avec le matériel adapté . Salutations respectueuses
This is amazing watching the train switch tracks, however what is even more amazing to me is the way the walschaert valve works , allowing the train to move forward and reverse

Good video! If the conical wheel is say 3 inches wide, I wanted to see how the Flange moves away or close to the track while on turning. If you can shoot, showing both wheels while on curve it would be wonderful
For a kid the sound of train running on tracks is literally the most beautiful and enjoyable thing.
Especially for boys in the age between 5 and 100 years.
Absolutely

What's truly amazing is that very small contact patch of the wheel carries so much weight and concentrates it down into such a tiny area on the track and wheel itself.
That train wheel also has a conical shape which makes an inward force to keep it on track.
the patch is normaly about 100~150mm2

Metals are very strong
When it changes track it looks wonderful
Ho
Yes bro
Right
very satisfying as well, love it!
I have an orgasm every time I see it.
Thanks to the cameraman who ran backwards holding his camera as fast as the train.
Now that was funny.
Not only that, but under the boogie
Bro he may stick the camera near the wheel
How can he hang beneath the train
They actually mounted the camera just above the wheel.
Not funny to me
The sound when it changes track is amazing... Memories...
Fun fact : The wheels are conical.
The wheels aren't cylindrical but a section of a double cone which helps the bogie to manoeuvre round the curves. Flange is for change of tracks.
The flange is also for the wheels to stay on the tracks. And the tracks are slightly inclined inwards for the better wheel run. Clever.
@@atrium8609 Nope.
@@ElmerJFudd-oi9kj Yup.
I honestly thought I was the only person fascinated with how steel wheels ride on rails.
@@warrengibson7898 The wheel does run straight for a long time before it creeps over.
If you are interested in this, watch the video that explains how trains turn. It is not what most people think.
Also the fixed distance between two wheels & high strength axle also keep them on straight path
Gonna go in a workshop for that.
Planning to stay there for a while lol
I was also from childhood and I have every edition of RC train toy.

Will never cease to amaze me that big, heavy trains can stay on little flimsy rails.
Well, they aren't exactly flimsy rails.....😁👍

The same is here boss
my guess would be forward since that is the direction trains tend to move in.
When train changes its track and the sound produced is the most beautiful sound and iam sure every train lovers love that
it's so cool to see how seamlessly they change the track
The switching patterns of the rail track are so satisfying
How other track joins and lefts is just magical to watch

WONDERFUL! One of the most original and captivating videos I have ever seen. Oddly, you often can't tell which direction the train is moving.
You could tell the direction. It's coming forward as in from screen to you. You could observe the other landmarks going behind.
Totally fascinating! Amazing when the wheels cross over another track. So smooth, I like watching that. Great video.

If you look at the wheel, it seems as it's going forward. If you look at the tracks, it seems like it's going the opposite way)
At 3.40 it really messes with your senses of what direction u r going.
Yeah when ever a Wheel is spinning so fast, It makes it look like it’s moving backwords

Just proves the flange of the train wheel does NOTHING
It's still very important actually.
I'm curious the driver makes the train make the curves or the tracks themselves makes the train make the curves by itself?
The curve of the track and the shape of the wheel is what guides the train
