Cass Scenic Railroad - Parade of Steam 2024

[@breebrat56]

This brings back sweet memories of my first ride with family when me & my siblings were kids. Best experience ever! We spent an average of 2-3 weeks every year camping in the monongahela national forest at laurel fork campground. We started out very young camping & kept doing it until junior/senior year of HS. It’s my love & second home away from home. The mountains are my happy place. ❤

In certain spots on the Greenbrier line, you can definitely tell where the tracks had been washed out!

[@calebbarkley3097]

[@jacksonsdrones]

One Awesome Video Man! Seeing Shay 6 was a treat!

[@cassscenicproductions8888]

Thank you! Yes it was!

[@ryanseals_]

The 6 Chime on 11 this year is an original. You can see steam shooting out of the side where the vertical valve once was installed. I think the Heisler was delivered to Cass with that whistle and you can hear it in old audio clips. It sounds absolutely gorgeous!

[@cassscenicproductions8888]

Thank you for the comment! It was one of the most beautiful whistles I've ever heard.

[@ryanseals_]

@@cassscenicproductions8888 I've been to Cass many times but haven't been able to hear it in person. Its a bit illusive.

[@eltonjohnfan100]

Last I heard this whistle in person was in the fall of 2005. Artie Barkley with the heisler. Love this whistle.

[@eltonjohnfan100]

Also. Hi Ryan. :)

What about that 2-truck Heisler that should be Lettered and Numbered for Cass? is that Steve Deihl running 2? What about McCurdy 12?

[@jakekreutzer]

What whistle on #2? It’s awesome! Sounds either Western Maryland or Illinois Central.

[@cassscenicproductions8888]

Illinois Central it sounded great in the mountains!

[@brianfalzon6739]

Beautiful very beautiful you made things wonderful good useful make human life happy you science education original God bless you and protect you I love 💘 it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤,,,,,is it can walk more speed

[@trenesdecolombiaPabloHiguita]

Is there even a way to fire a shay good enough to avoid all that smoke?

[@cassscenicproductions8888]

I see them sometimes when there fired with their stack clean but most of the time there is a good amount of smoke.

[@WMRRFIREBALL]

This year actually has less smoke than previous years. They can run clean but the visitors want to see smoke coming out of the stack.

[@jeffmurdock8321]

@@WMRRFIREBALL A few years back they got smokeless coal and nothing they did could make them smoke. They switched back later. The smokeless coal was actually a big selling point on certain passenger train lines back in the day cuz no one wanted to get dirty when traveling in style or see that mess.

[@Nightgale-2021]

Where’s is no. 9

[@cassscenicproductions8888]

It's in the shop getting some maintenance done on it

Thank you!

[@trivialinsignific]

oh wow ! you guys are doing your part to save the planet and the eviroment - geez - give me a break how come the epa isnt crawling up your rear end like the rest of us

[@jeffmurdock8321]

They did switch to vegetable oil to lube the external gearing and to be more enviro-friendly. Also, coal exhaust is more heavy dust and ash than actual gasses. There is the mercury issue. There are only a handful of these old machines left, so they are not the massive threat that millions of cars and giant power plants are.

[@soco13466]

Are these coal or wood burners? Being made haul wood, I figure they had lots of wood available. The smoke seems to be grey, but I'm just guessing.

[@johnmatthew102]

They are coal fired.

[@jeffmurdock8321]

Cass has run wood, coal, and oil burners in the past (especially back in the day) but they all are set up to run coal today. I liked the oil burner as a kid cuz I'd not get cinders in my eye from it.
