This is a beautiful locomotive, and it's my favorite wheel arrangement: 2-8-2! And it has a beautiful whistle, too, befitting its size and status.

Unfortunately this branch is not in the best of conditions. You can almost hear the old wooden sleepers creak and groan under the weight of the locomotive.

Public comments. Educate the public about pollution control and care for mother earth by respect the rules and regulations dealing with cleaning up rivers and respect the earth we depend on for Human survival. Re cycling everything and have a proper waste management system to deal with waste and pollution control now is very important because of global warming is real problem facing many nation today.

Very poor maintenance of Track and Train.Surprised to think how it still works. I have travelled thousands of Kilo Meters by trains hauled by steam Engines till 1960s in India but now only a few very short distance heritage tracks of around 175 years of age are running for tourism sake.

[@rameshsinha2169]

How old is the video clip 🤔

[@anantheeswaran]

Excellent vintage video of 2012.. Are steam engines still operating now?

[@jasonwhipp5721]

What type of whistle does she have?

[@vlekov]

Most of our preserved steam locos have these and the 01.23 is no exception. It's a 5-chime whistle which as far as I know is unique in Europe. It's similar to some of the american locos' whistles and that's where it takes it's inspiration from. Originally the locos came from Germany or in this case Switzerland with a single chime whistle which was then replaced by these bulgarian manufactured 5-chimes.

[@neerajjain9088]

In India we have Baldwin (USA)locos for BG mainlines which were extinct in 1994. Similarly we have Yokohama (Japan) and German locos used for MG mainlines which were working till 1997. Most of MG locos are from Yokohama Japan . Both types have wonderful Whistles. BG locos still working in USA are still deprived of wonderful Whistles.

It's a very small station at the end of a not very busy branch, there's nowhere you can fit a turntable around there. Unfortunately you're right about the lack of maintenance.

Public comments. God bless India with the struggle for freedom against the British. Noting in this world don't go on paid fact . What is in the dark must come to light. No one can run from destiny. Time will definitely tell the tail when they exit this world. When one exit this world he doesn't take anything with him but his karma. Or his dignity..no money 💰 or wealth or diamond or perl but use his knowledge wisely remember what you say or do in life defines your character and personality it is important to protect your dignity and integrity in life because life journey begins with you in words taught or deeds weather physical mental or emotional self realisation is the key to success by using your inner ability to control your taught and action base on how you preceive life journey begins with you. I am not the physical body but the eternal soul. Give thanks to almighty God for the greatest gift ever and that is life. This world is our home for a time when almighty God is ready for life. No one can run from destiny. God created everything for humanity to enjoy life and his senses of direction in words taught or deeds. Words of wisdom. You never miss the water until the well run dry . God is watching and waiting for justice . The truth shall prevail amen.

A great locomotive and tender both in great condition, pity about the tatty, graffiti covered later carriages. You would think the railway society who own the loco would find some nice period tidy carriages? Station platform was tatty and covered in weeds but the public seemed to like the train.

Мъка ,мъка!Само чуждестранни коментари, много от тях подигравателни.Защото автора не си е дал труда да обясни ,че това е атракционен влак .На всичко отгоре влакът се върна в София с тендера напред.Ако беше дерайлирал кой щеше да отговаря?

[@vlekov]

Всъщност, авторът си е направил труда и е обяснил, че влакът е атракционен. Също така, подигравки сред коментарите няма, хората пишат по-скоро това, което виждат - линия в окаяно състояние и стари вагони с лош външен вид. Но пък хвалят локомотива, и то доста. А това за тендера не знам как да го коментирам, честно казано - на гара Банкя очевидно няма как да се завърти локомотива, а и доколкото знам нищо не му пречи да се движи с тендера напред, с ограничена скорост разбира се - както е по конструкция. Локомотивната бригада отговаря за своите действия, а предвид доказания им професионализъм, очевидно не съм се притеснявал да им поверя и живота си, качвайки се на влак, управляван от тях. Както впрочем и цялата останала тълпа, която пристигна и се върна в София със същата композиция.
