So tiny..So nice..so romantic journey.This reminds me of katwa, a small town of Burdwan dist,WB, India where the same type of train,same steam locomotive on narrow gauge were used to take us Burdwan,40 km in 3 hrs.by Macleod,a British company.
Walking down to my childhood memory lane..We used to play near the station.Still I hear the 'Sweet sound' of her whistle and smell the fragrance of smoke ..
'Anek smriti,anek galpo tomake nie ja bhule jaoya' osambhab'.
Nice Vidio indeed.
Move on DHAK DHAK

I love the way the train blows its whistle, and mine.

[@uthund]

Great video. I get goose pimples at the sound of that train!!! Travelled on it last July. Super trip.

[@GMCobh]

I'm impressed by the high quality of the video, the trains, and by the scenery. Thanks.

[@SuzieQ39]

this is probably one the most beautiful and best video ive seen on here so far! ty for sharing

[@gerardgillet5280]

Une vidéo magnifique... La montée sur les parties à crémaillère est impressionnante !!! Bravo pour ces magnifiques prises de vue...

[@royreynolds108]

Actually it is ON it. The side tanks carry the water and coal (or oil) is carried in a bunker across the back. The larger locos are what we in the US call a 2-6-0 T or Europe is a 1-3-0 T(tank). The smaller locos are 0-4-2 T or 0-2-1 T. The outside cylinders power the drivers for adhesion and the inside cylinders power the cog wheel for the rack to get up those steep grades. Beautiful locos and country.

[@Dubisam]

Gorgeous...I could travel to the Switzerland, staying in Brazil.

[@fordlandau]

great vid..I did the current Galcier Express which now bypasses this section with a very long tunnel

[@SuzieQ39]

@uthund I get the same feeling about the sound of trains! the whistling sound of the horn. i get excited! :D

[@anunggaming]

great steam trains video :)

[@qmsarge]

The locos and coaches have an good resemblance with the ones used at Nilgiri Mountain Railways and Darjeeling Mountain and Railways :). Guess they were all made after a careful study of how Swiss made these mountain railways.

[@Passengervehicles]

Great video

[@kealoa9]

Have you ever caught any that you chased? Is it like dogs chasing cars - they have no idea what to do with it if they catch it. The only time I've ever managed to catch one was when it was standing still - the goo to fast for me to run after them.

[@AndrzejMastalerz]

Very nice.

[@nitantmohture]

Fantastic

[@Thunderbolt_1000_Siren]

ah the wonders of foreign rails.

[@robertbowman3406]

What exactly was the man in the small diesel engine at 4:40 handing to the engineer in the train just as it topped the hill? Could it have been permission to continue on up the line?

[@sdfjksdfjkify]

[@kellogsnotavailable]

is that dark-grey smokey up-flow actually steam ? I don't think so

[@meTimetraveler]

nice video

[@1940limited]

Why would 354 people give this video a thumbs down? What's wrong with it? I'm not huge fan of European trains, but this is an interesting video. It's fun to see what they're doing over there. Thanks for posting. By the way, what's the third rail for I noticed in some of the scenes?

[@SeanBodine]

To help the train go up the steep incline.

[@MrConDUCKtor]

I'm a duck and I'm working as a train conductor.

[@Cockroach2008]

This old relic should be graffiti painted, stripped, scrapped, cut apart & sent to the foundry for melting into new products.
If some people need CASH QUICKLY, parts can be removed & sold with NO QUESTIONS ASKED! Whistle, bell, gauges, headlights, number boards, marker lights, builders plate, sand domes, throttle assembly & so many other good parts can be removed & sold at VERY HIGH COLLECTORS CASH PRICES! Enough money to get a person by for at least 18 to 20 months!
ALL THERE FOR THE TAKING!

[@mandyplodek639]

Nobody cares troll. Just keep your opinion to yourself so people can enjoy the video.

[@57629589]

No tender, oil burner or secret compartment for coal.

[@lainestrains]

Cool

[@spacetrenton]

I like trains :D:D:D:D:D

[@jjaquu]

I think trains are f'in SICK!!!! Sry@ my mom.

[@Cockroach2008]

@chevyvictor The parts like the whistles, gauges, number boards, marker lights, builder's plates can all be taking & sold for CASH!
The best part, NO QUESTIONS WILL EVER BE ASKED!
There are scrap dealers who will take it. No shame in cutting up graffiti painted, steam locomotives! These things should have been cut apart 65 years ago!
Junk all the remaining steam locomotives!

[@mandyplodek639]

Cockroach you have stated your opinion. NOW STOP COMMENTING

[@mandyplodek639]

Leave troll

[@gamjc]

@Mecajet Trollin'

[@chevyvictor]

@Cockroach2008 Scrap dealers wont take it. If they're caught they'll never live down the shame

[@mandyplodek639]

Chevy Levy who else suspects this cockroach guy is a bit trying to take down these videos but failing miserably
