Loving all those steam engines turning, Jonathan, great video, especially the steam whistle. I retired a few years ago from our local steel mill here in Southern Colorado. Years ago when I started in '74 the mills were steam powered especially the Rail Mill. Next to the old Power House were the Blast Furnaces and on the Power House was the very large and deep toned shift change steam whistle. The whole town heard it at 7, 3 and 11pm and Noon. Sadly over the years of the evolving of the steel industry steam was eliminated and the steam whistle is in a museum. Loved hearing yours, sounded just like a steam locomotive coming into town! Beautiful layout of your engines.

(If these videos were on a "Pay per view" channel, I think I would gladly pay to watch them.) Looking forward to seeing more of your projects - Be careful around all that live steam and rotating machinery- Walt B.

Jonathan you still need a steam locomotive and a track around your property. There are still small mine and steel mill and so forth locomotives out there rusting. Towns that years ago put these locomotives on display in the park or playground or whatever sometimes want to get rid of them and they need to be rescued.
