That workplace at 7:20 looks epic! Modern TFT computer monitor and real non-heritage steam locomotives in the background.

Chinese Steam can be sold to the US Railroads: Pan Am Railways. Iowa Interstate Railroad Alaska Railroad and more. Plus tourist railroads and museums in the US.

steam engines do not always go slow. in fact locomotives in the united states in the lesser half of the 20th century routinely hauled freight and passengers at speeds over 100 mph. Also a typical large class steam loco is much more powerful than any diesel or electric loco even today. They just cost more to operate.

The actual last tour is Feb 2013. All but 1 QJ locomotive is still running. This will be the final year for steam engines in China.

These trains are just shunting heavy, hot loads over short distances within a works. Speed is not important.

Kinda looks like Wheeling, West Virginia, especially with all of those Mikado locomotives running around... USATC S-200 design morphed into the SY class...

g bridgman Still looks like some of the Gary Works of US Steel if you substitute diesels for the steamers. Right now they're shutting down some of the furnaces for repair, others will be torn down(or so the local news says). But, steelmaking is changing and the companies that don't change also will end up being footnotes in history. On the one hand I don't miss all the stack gasses being blown our way but it saddens me to see the loss of good-paying jobs in the Gary/East Chicago area and the rise of crime spilling over from Chicago.

That's the key to it all: Good jobs. Workers made out real well with jobs in the steel, auto, railroad, and other manufacturing industries. today everyone's taking in laundry and turning out hamburgers. How are you supposed to maintain a standard of living on minimum wage at Wal-Mart when you used to work in a factory for $30-40/hour? A few at the top still make a killing while most suffer. It's a damn shame. I don't know what to say about the pollution thing. It's either that or minimum wage at a department store.

For people to have those good jobs, their prospective employers need to be making money... $30/hr in a steel mill isn't all that much in pay, but when the Chinese are making steel for 1 - 2 RMB per ton in profits, or even 100 RMB, your job is extinct... (Look up "zombie companies" in the Chinese steel industry especially) When the government takes more in taxes than a manufacturer can sell the product for - in the US & Europe, for example - in the UK for certain - you get a rust-belt where you *used* to have industry...

Some are built to go slowly, like heavy shunting engines. Some are fast, like Mallard at 126mph, or Blue Peter in 1994, who accidentally had a valve-gear-shattering 140MPH slip.

Great video. No ridiculous and unnecessary music added. I wonder if they were loading NZ West Coast coal into the loco tender?! China is the major buyer, and it's interesting to see the end use to which it is put. One thing that struck me in this clip; nobody seemed to be rushing around with frenetic haste. I know that the commodity being handled is unforgiving of mistakes, but the preconceived picture of China is that humanity is of secondary importance to production.

I dont mean to be rude, but if this video is banned in Germany just because of the music, do you not think it would be benifical to get rid of the song? It only lasts 2:08 minutes, and the entire video is 14:35. Even more the sound track of this whole video is amazing, i think the song slightly ruins it. Great video none the less, it had me zoned in for 15 minutes nearly!

Some time ago I saw a video of these western train watchers that went to China to record the trains there because they heard that China was still running and producing steam engines. In the provinces they recorded at the local police gave them a hard time, even though they had been given permission, because the local police thought they were spies because they couldn't believe that anyone would want to record trains.
