[0004] Shibanxi Railway (China Steam Train) 嘉阳小火车(芭石鉄路)

[@ostlandr]

I see lots of farm tractors in the USA in that condition. They may look like a rust bucket, but the oil gets changed regularly, every fitting gets greased, and the owners have gotten the capital cost of the tractor back many, many times over.

どの動画を拝見しても、裏切らない質の高さ！凄い！

[@RyanCerbus]

I've been watching a lot of train videos over the last year with my son (just turned two years old). Yours are some of the best and most interesting videos I've seen. Thanks!

[@2005wenlu]

非常棒的火車影像紀錄!!

[@a.m.s.z-foryouegypt4171]

One of the most beautiful scenes I have seen in my life My sincere thanks and appreciation I am from Egypt

[@Mark-qz5fm]

太有魅力了，好像從畫中走來一樣。謝謝

[@otakurailfan]

that's called a blowdown, its a way to remove composites and impurities in the boiler, usually from the water. This operation is never performed at stations.

Why the hell was No. 14 carrying No. 09's Tender?

[@railandmodel]

@RailKingJP Your welcome, some of the clearest high quality filming i've seen on YT. Very impressed. Kind regards.

[@RailKingJP]

@subaruiv Thank you. Please watch again.

[@johncrawford4754]

Thank you for sharing this with us! China, Russia and other places should rebuild and operate all of these "little trains"! They seem heart warming and fit in to the communities they serve very well! The locomotives could be cleaned up and burn better so the communities would be cleaner and give a better sense of pride. Would love it if the US did this sort of thing, but that is a 'pipe dream' as we call it. Anyway, thanks for sharing!

[@MokkaHai]

Damn thats a good sounding Whistle at the start

[@kevdoom2]

T'was the blow down valve. helps to do it eery so often in a steam eninge. you do it if theres to much water in the boiler and or other things.

[@gm66power]

nice to see more great videos from your new channel

[@thefredtkt]

Very good video, a dream for me really! i like narrow gauge steam locomotiven! i seen the last 141R SNCF ( french steam ) in 1970, and i remember it anytime i see steam lock on youtube! i seen also dampflock of Alsdorf and Siersdorf and Reden in Germany! thank's for yous videos lucky man!

這如同70年前的基隆八尺門“和平島橋附近”至水瀾洞“陰陽海”的台陽小火車。

[@MrDogpapa]

画的に綺麗でまた大陸的な運用が見れてすごくいいですね、

[@Dometiev]

Очень хорошо снято и смонтировано, место очень красивое, спасибо получил удовольствие от просмотра.

[@Joebbel]

Very nice filming! A special way to film these things

[@MagictrainsOrg]

Fantastic video!!

[@timsideas]

Nice video. It great to watch them operate the train.

[@jbear4910]

free fuel for cooking or heating the home. At 1 point it becomes too wasted and not efficient for the boiler, but still good enough for low energy type applications.

[@LJAbel]

A pleasure to watch - professional quality!

[@JonatanGronoset]

It's called a blowdown valve, they use it when there's too much water in the boiler and to blast out impurities.

[@allanegleston4931]

thanks for sharing . i am watching in 2019. i have the feeling that this scene is now long gone ?

[@GregInCalifornia]

Awesome intro & video!

[@cheungkinkeicheungkinkei3803]

好美麗的風景!好想去^_^

[@iJoshDG]

Awesome video! Nice job!

[@RailKingJP]

@betote72 Thank you. Please watch again.

[@RailKingJP]

@plarailmike Thank you. Please watchi again!

[@Searsnut11]

That isnt the safety valve. Its the blow down for sending out sediments built up in the boiler.

[@wesleyjose-videosbusologia1167]

Nossa que coisa linda de ver! Um trem antigo desses em pleno vapor! 😊😊👏👏

[@dtunzzlistener]

Excellent Video! Interesting and well done.

[@colliecandle]

Be nice to see it shipped to Japan for a working retirement - especially after coming out of a JR workshop - the difference would be almost unbelievable.

[@ShaleNinja]

I'm developing a mild crush on it all too - these wee engines are so ruthless in their utilitarian existence that they reek of charm. I think this one's a C4 class? Little mountain goats.

[@steamqj]

Top Class Video from a great little railway

[@renegadeoflife87]

All steam locomotives must periodically drop cinders from the fire. Most of the time engines operated by museums or excursion lines will only do so in certain areas where other crew members are available to shovel the glowing embers safely off of the rails to a place where they won't burn the ties or cause a wildfire. Looks like the steamers used in China for actual traffic do things similarly, only it's the station hands that take care of it.

[@RailKingJP]

@73Pawel Thank you for watching!

[@Quavey2007]

Probably the blow down valve, used to remove impurities from within the boiler to avoid amongst other things priming and poor performance. Being driver controlled it would be used when no danger to passers by! Larger engines would often have whats known as a continuous blowdown, always active probably exhausting up the chimney so not noticed!

[@tothemoonflyme315]

Love these goodie oldie steam trains.

[@stug3957]

RailKingJP .... Working steam railways.... like time-travelling! .. Thanks

[@RailKingJP]

@neonpike Thank you for watching.

[@RailKingJP]

@peterlewis2 This loco called "C2". Made in china. Thank you.

[@tothemoonflyme315]

This is the last one of his kind in China. And it isn't only used for tourism, but actually serves the locals for decades. For the tourists, the ticket charges one USD while for the locals living amongst mountains and valleys, the ticket charges less than 30 cents.

[@RailKingJP]

@Rocketboy1950 Thanks!

[@RailKingJP]

@trainfart Thank you!

[@RailKingJP]

@gm66power Thank you. Please watch next video.

[@banjoman101145]

The people along the track are clinker-pickers, gleaning usable coal out of the ashes for heat at their homes. My late uncle told me of his doing that back during the Great Depression. He said they would often make catcalls to the engine crew in hopes they might reply by throwing chunks of coal at them from the tender...perhaps hoping to bean one off his head but his often getting a big, piece of coal to take home.

[@RailKingJP]

@gjhgjh This town called "mifengyan". It is in Sichuan in China. Thank you.

[@RailKingJP]

@ay76 Thank you for watching!

[@RailKingJP]

@jaribarem OK. I try it again soon. Thank you!

[@martinstajkovic4380]

This is epic stuff. Thank you for these videos.

[@Hendo56]

Very interesting videos you have posted here.

[@RailKingJP]

@Joebbel Thanks for watching and subbing!

[@ralphturner3798]

Why are the red hot lumps of coal dumped from the engine? Don't they still have some energy in them?

[@ralphturner3798]

@chef thanks

[@steamqj]

Top Class Video from a great little line

[@RailKingJP]

@wwebtime Thank you for watching!

[@JohnHorvath42]

What a lovely train and setting. What is the town?

[@rwlaurbr55144]

Nice ! Again ! Greeting from Swiss.

[@Dive-Bar-Casanova]

Is this a working railroad or some sort of enthusiasts endeavor? This is a super-cool RR.

[@RailKingJP]

@aldocino Thanks for watching!

[@kolejIT]

in the China is this normal that steam railway takes transport many people?? good vid.

[@RailKingJP]

The mystery was solved. Thank you.

[@KARTAVIDEO2TRAINS]

I like classic train. Greeting from Indonesia

[@subaruiv]

Excellent !!!

[@RailKingJP]

@timsideas Thank you!

[@king365day]

Nice shooting, I love railways.

[@BCSchmerker]

Many of the procedures used on the Shibanxi were once common in the United States, including the ash dump from the firebox and the mud and salt blow-out. BTW, how many kilometers between overhauls is this 0-8-0 rated for? Neglected boilers will leak or, worse, burst.

[@Hornhausen]

Awesome video.

[@4123jstein]

mighty fine show!

[@FiveFreckles]

Good engineer, he has that kitten purring. also so funny to see people, waiting to pick up the ash from the fire box and any extra coal

[@RailKingJP]

@togreektown Thank you.

[@rhino2960]

pretty sure that was a blow off of excess boiler pressure

[@RailKingJP]

@KingmoviesNS1 Dank je.

[@lucananninie4942]

Beautiful video. UP Member of the channel. Parts?

[@pradnyakarlekar8805]

Excellent

[@RailKingJP]

@drmagricola Thanks!

[@jetporter]

The engineer is doing this to blow "mud" out of the boiler which has accumulated due to using mucky water. They do this in areas where it will not harm people. Don't worry; the crew would never do this in the station or towards people.

[@RailKingJP]

@railwaylive Thank you for watching. Please watch again.

[@irelandbloke]

Great video

[@plarailmike]

GREAT STUFF RailKingJP YOU HAVE THE GIFT TO SHOT GOOD VIDEOS! plarailmike UK

[@Gavsta40]

This happens in Australia too, Where i work they do it and its not uncommon.

[@neantcity]

super,merci.

[@RailKingJP]

@Gian2812 Grazie

[@73Pawel]

Very nice video. 5***** + favorites.

[@RailKingJP]

@GregInCalifornia Thank you for your comment.

[@raztaz826]

Looks like the train nearly snuck up on a guy at 3:30 he jumps back quick just before the film cuts to another scene, he jumps back quick.

[@harshitsingh2646]

Hi channel owner do these train are still in use in china ...as china have bullet train so china is preserving this type of trains?

[@railandmodel]

Excellent :-)

[@RailKingJP]

@2005wenlu 謝謝你看。

[@RailKingJP]

@howarth004 Thanks for watching and please watch again.

[@pwalpar]

Excellant video. 問候從格魯吉亞 U.S.A.

[@eo-qf8ey]

This engine is polish Kp4.

[@smalltowntraveller]

Great steam era.. glad to see

[@rogertra]

Steam at 4:28 is the engineer/driver blowing down the boiler.

[@TheOnlyBrooks]

What on earth is the steam at 4:28? It's way too much to be an injector. But the position is bizarre for the safety valve! Imagine if it blew off in a station! You would scald passengers! >

[@drixdresspressprr]

Klasse Video ,Top Qualität,Abo OK ***** Peter

[@freeman8128]

There is something romantic about steam, but from a practical and economic point of view diesel is better.

[@GloucesterCountyNJFire]

why are people picking up hot cole

[@harryrobinson2901]

Gloucester County NJ Fire the fireman opens the grate slightly as they go through towns, so the locals can use them for their fires.
