The Largest Steam Locomotive on Earth!

Thanks

Just discovered your channel, thanks so much for such amazing footage, editing and narration!!

I wish I could of lived back then
What a time in history

Why two engines while she's so light?

Quite an engine. I saw one of these at a railroad museum in Denver. Very big indeed!

Isso pra mim foi um presente

Essa é muito bonita ,e essa bosina é demais

Very - very - good photography.

What a beast!

Trains impress me more than planes, rocket ships, cars, kitchen appliances, TVs, satellites, submarines and ships, cell phones, and any form of government!

perfect narrator for this video. absolutely perfect. thank you!! you guys took me back to the good old days.

Perfect photography.

I had a model train named after this beast I used to add a liquid that made it smoke

They took steal and water and turned it into a living machine

That's one awesome piece of engineering my gramps was hooked on the steam locomotives I can see why

Sight of 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Actual "steam punk" in action!

Iron horses, how they breathe hard.🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎...

Black Beauty!

Can you imagine waking up to that whistle early in the morning - is it 1945 all over again?

They called them the rat pack when all the cars past 4449 the day light back in the early 90

The horn couldn't have a better person using it cause Ed going to use the s...out of it👍👍👍👍

Amazing I went to the Ford Museum in Detroit and they have a similar engine there I am 6 feet tall the wheels that drive it was taller than me. We have a steam engine in Ontario Canada that runs on the weekend from Tottenham to beaten. Is booked out six weeks in advance. They needed a part for it and found one on a train that sits to the entrance of Halliburton in cottage country.

My dad started out shoveling coal for CNR just after the war. My grand dad would take me to the round house to watch the engines change tracks. Although I was just a kid, I miss the days of Steam. Thanks for the memories.

As much as I like these videos of steam trains I couldn't help noticing the diesel locomotive in the string. What was it doing there? Was it a backup of sorts? Curious.

Crew change? do you mean schooled crew change, cause not everybody can just jump in and operate a big boy, correct? And using a diesel electric dynamic braking, ya i can see that as very useful and added safety feature, nice video, thanks for sharing it with us.

Why did this Big Boy require helpers?

Flippin huge, gotta love these beasties..
Wish I was born back in 1869 🚂

all those powers behind it its a short lenght to pull really !only what 8 coaches at the back

👍👏♥️

lovely white smoker

p another steam loco and two diesel el locos!

More amazing than the P-51Mustang

4014 bence bu gezegenin en harika lokomotifidir.. love you 4014

AWESOME VIDEO ,🤩
Thank you so much.!!

😃Oh I Love the 4014 ,
" BIG BOY " So Massively COOL , AWESOME!!!

I used to play on this train as a kid and climb in the tinder box I hope to one day take this train on a trip one day so I can experience it as more then just a static display it's my dream

This is magic I love the power like listening to the sound of a P 51 I remember working on my car when you could get to everything yourself with the help of a neighbor or friend and the guy at the auto parts store would tell you how to do it maybe even stop by your house and point things out but wouldn’t touch a wrench because he wanted you to learn I was in high school

Great machine but it burns diesel. I don't think I'll stand on a bridge and watch that go underneath. Can't beat a good load on Welsh steam coal.

They have one on the Henry Ford museum that is so big they engineered the engine to bend in the middle. It could haul several hundred coal cars through the Pennsylvania mountains.
Designed for the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway in 1941, the Allegheny locomotive is 125-feet long, weighs about 771,000 pounds, and could pull 160 coal cars, each with a 60-ton load, through the steep grades of the Allegheny Mountains

There is a Big Boy in the York railway museum in the UK which I saw and boy was it big. There was a Chinese loco there which seemed about the same size and If it wasn't it wouldn't be by much.

...FASCINATING pieces of sophysticated engineering...

Very cool train. Awesome.

What a great time that was for man to overcome such great obstacles with steam and know how ❤

Какие они классные, эти старые паровозы💯💯💯💥💥💥💥💥😊😊😊😊

Big boy is a sexy beast. I would love to go cross country in a sleeper car pulled by this Goliath. 😊

Loved this superb video of muscle man Big Boy. Missed the Red Indians on horses, though.
