I got to see abig boy at steam town in vermont in the 60s i got to ride on steam trains their also. Latter on in the 70s i got to ride the replica train with the best friend of charlston. In Abbeville SC we where aloud to ride it while it was being moved to a diferent track to be loaded in a box car. The tracks belonged to the Seabord coast line rail road. I think the best friend was owned by the southern rail road

This out of date locomotive that pollutes the air that we breath had the nerve to make a stop in ghost town Sidney Nebraska back when I was stupid enough to be living in that horrible crime ridden ghost town Sidney Nebraska. The whole world needs to know that Sidney Nebraska is corrupt and that Cheyenne county attorney Paul Schwab is a known crack cocaine addict and he is often down at several of the illegal drug sellers houses and obtaining crack cocaine. Sidney Nebraska is a very dangerous unsafe community and full of crime. The Sidney Nebraska police department is no better.

The Watchtower Society made a feature lenght movie and skide presentation called THE PHOTODRAMA OF CREATION. Surviving parts can be seen on KZbin. Segments feature introductions by C. T. Russel seen talking like here. Balance was mivie and slides with offsceeen naration and or music. While the Russel introduction may have been done by somthing like Edisons process, some retorations show disc records with 1912 type 😂❤ labels, but one show claims to be tne Russell introductions. ______ There was around 1905 a system of SOUND 0N FILM for peep show machines. It cut a phonograph groove into the film, the grove wore out after 50 or so.plays, so it was a novely item

When I was a kid, my parents took me to Steam Town because I begged them for years. When we went to the gift shop, they bought me a DVD containing historical railroad movies. This happened to be one of them, and it was my favorite in the entire disk. I must've seen it over a thousand times. I think we gave the disk away at a thrift store, but I have many fond memories of watching all of those old train movies as a kid.

That echo of the whistle is chilling. Its almost like the dying call of a mighty beast. A grim reminder that despite their power and size, most of these beautiful steel beasts would fall at the hands of the scrappers torch. The echos of their mighty whistles, being all that's left of the great giants of the west

I had this as a VHS when I was a kid, and dreamed of the moment in the beginning where a young kid sees one rolling by. It's so awesome to watch now, 30 years later, and see they only got the "happy memory" part wrong, with 4014 now operable.

That was a Star Brass Short-Bell 5 chime whistle. This type of whistle was commonly heard on the smaller locomotives (2-8-0 Consolidations, 2-8-2 Mikados, 4-6-0 Ten Wheelers, etc).
