Steam Locomotive Switches out Modern Industries!

The last weekend Everett #11 ran as a coal burning steam locomotive.
Initially expected to chase Everett's routine freight operations (which typically are done with diesel engines), but were pleasantly surprised to see them pull out #11 for the job.

[@JETZcorp]

Passenger excursions are neat and stuff, but there is something absolutely magic about seeing a steam engine pulling modern freight cars. To this day I think the coolest steam footage is UP 3985 pulling that double-stack over Archer Hill. Seeing this little guy doing real work for real freight customers just warms the heart.

[@Sigil_Firebrand]

I remember seeing, literally the iconic video, except I was on the second or third bridge at the top of Archer hill, with my mom and grandparents. One of the most amazing sights I've seen in my entire life.

[@debbiemilka2251]

Hi JETZ, I am trying to find out more about this video. Like, how long ago was it done ? Is this beautiful loco still laboring in this manner ? Is the owner/operator performing a utilitarian service or was this just for show. I read that the engine was restored in 2015. Which is encouraging news. If you know more please give me a holler. Many thanks.

[@JETZcorp]

@@debbiemilka2251 Unfortunately this is the first time I've seen or heard of #11 so I can't really help you. Best of luck in your research.

Whenever I watch that video of 3985 I just wanna scream Go baby Go!

[@JETZcorp]

@@exceptionallyaveragejoe I just read they took FIVE diesel GEs off the front of that train when the hooked 3985 up. It's amazing some desk driver didn't raise a big stink about dynamic brakes or something. They certainly would today.

Something similar happened not far from where i live a year or so ago. A small loading site for wood and the new delivey of empties blocked the regular switcher. The nearest available loco was a small tank engine from the nearby railway museum, that got a well deserved run that way despite covid

The best way to learn how to operate a steam locomotive is by switching. I know this from doing a RR camp where we had to run the locomotive around a set of passenger cars and re-couple. Running laps is fun and all but switching is a whole different beast!

[@robkrasinski6217]

Strasburg sometimes does a freight run with a steam locomotive instead of their diesel switcher. They pick up freight cars from NS at the Amtrak interchange and take them to the team track in East Strasburg where trucks come to pick up the loads to take them to the customers. UP has hauled revenue freight with steam, and so has Reading and Northern.

[@maciekkra539]

Yes they do, and i've seen it this past fall. Seems they do it during the week and it was a little odd to see yellow RailBox hi-cube behind the steam, but at the same time awesome.

[@raymondleggs5508]

The steam locomotives have more tractive effort than the diesel switcher that's why.

[@TheYardLimit]

@@raymondleggs5508 more horsepower? yes. More tractive effort? No A switcher like that SW8 has about the tractive effort of a mainline steam loco, but a fraction of the horsepower.

[@SpawnofChaos]

UP is literally federally required to do so. Their steam locomotives are on the active duty roster right alongside the ES44s and SD70ACes, meaning they have to be used for at least one revenue freight per year or UP gets fined.

God bless them for keeping it alive and well and working! Faith in humanity restored.

[@crorivpro]

I have pictures of this locomotive disassembled on flat cars taken in the 80s at what was once the providence RI rail yard. I think it was being shipped to a new owner as the Narragansett Pier RR scheme fell through. When I saw No11 in the video I wondered if it was THAT No.11 and after checking the Everette RR website, I was thrilled to see her running. I'd been all over that engine when it was in Rhode Island way back when. Looks like another trip to PA before long.

[@mikepowers8607]

The loco is surprisingly quiet for most of the run. Pleasantly so. Makes me re-think the "need" for sound decoders for the fleet of steam on my model railroad.

[@johndermont2231]

Beautiful steamer! All dressed and ready to go! Great Whistle!

[@RailRover65]

What a great video and wonderful photography of this neat little Mogul! And how ironic that number 11 is pulling a Crab Orchard and Egyptian (COER) boxcar in the second half of the video. The CO&E in Marion, IL was one of the last short line railroads to use steam in freight service, up until the late 1970's. They had 2-4-2 #5, which went to the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern (and needs restoration), and the 2-8-0 #17, which is now at the Boone & Scenic Valley RR as a static display. Good to see number 11 has been restored and is in operation today!

There's something magical about seeing an old steam locomotive carrying modern freight. Perhaps it's how big the wagons are compared to it- a reminder of just how large rolling stock has grown nowadays I guess.

[@garysprandel1817]

Found it amusing the boxcar right behind the locomotive was Crab Orchard & Egyptian. CO&E was the last railroad using steam in regular revenue service into the late 70s or early 80s before switching over to some second hand MP switchers.

[@diddlebug7241]

Good information to know.

[@tigerdumdua]

CO&E is still lurking about Marion, under Progressive Rail, with newer cab-end switchers. Gone are the Marion Wildcats blue and gold and Herrin Tigers orange and black vintage switchers.

This is pretty awesome. My grandfather was an engineer for B&O/Chessie until he retired in 1968. Most of his years were running a switcher in the Ivorydale yard in St Bernard, Ohio.

[@DivergingClear]

Just a little trivia here... the boxcar behind the locomotive in several scenes carries the reporting marks "COER," or the Crab Orchard & Egyptian Railroad. The CO&E was the last railroad to use steam in daily common carrier freight service, only dieselizing in September, 1986. While the car does carry the COER reporting mark, it does not belong to that railroad. The CO&E has leased its reporting mark to a fleet owner that just uses the reporting mark. The CO&E today owns no freight cars.

[@Terrys-Steam-and-Bricks]

Now that is not something you see every day. Now I’m tempted to buy some modern equipment to run with my live steam!

[@3ftsteamrwy12]

Not bad, especially considering modern freight cars are roughly 2X the weight of cars designed when #11 was running "real" freight service in the 1920's, 30' and 1940's

[@jamesm6638]

Even so, 5-6 cars is nothing, for ANY steam loco. Cars also all use roller bearings now so that's a factor as well. Even a 2-6-0 like this could do MUCH more without issue.

[@Dachamp2001]

When it comes to raw power & tractive effort steam is king 🤴

[@15nyonker]

@@Dachamp2001 Not to mention their torque curve gives them more power at speed - the opposite of diesel electrics. The peak torque on big boy was at 35 mph. DEs are all at zero mph due to the nature of electric motors.

[@JETZcorp]

@@15nyonker Actually DEs usually make peak effort somewhere around 8-12mph, depending on gearing. At least in the DC traction days, with AC it might be different. At lower speeds they were limited to prevent overheating some of the electrical components. Of course they would also start to drop off in power at higher speeds as the back-EMF built up. Comparatively, it's almost unheard-of for steam of equivalent horsepower to have more TE than a diesel. It's hard to beat having 100% of your weight on the drive wheels and the smooth, continuous nature of electric torque. But, it also took them a LONG time before they could actually get the horsepower of steam without having to use a pile of diesels. From the perspective of the railroads, it took 3 GP9s to get the power of a single 2-8-4 steamer, but those Jeeps together would put triple the starting TE to the rails. That meant they could overload the nuts off them and grind a million tons over the pass at 10mph without stalling the train. You could never do modern style PSR with steam; they'd have to go back to fast and frequent trains with real timetables. That would mean providing much faster and more reliable service to shippers - what horror!

[@hb300blk]

That would be cool to see.

[@Cragified]

Diesel-Electrics have far to many other advantages (dynamic braking and traction control). Steam relies on a supply of fuel, water, steam oil, and has much higher maintenance and start up costs in man-hours. If fuel costs ever became a motivating factor the industry to change they'd just electrify the rails instead.

[@apostolicengineer8251]

Last time I checked, coal was over 200.00 a ton.

[@frontagulus]

@@Cragified Long-term they would electrify but electric also takes a huge amount of infrastructure so shorter term, steam could fill in some capacity. Of course, the extant locomotives that are not in daily operational condition would also need a lot of service to get them back to that status. Organizing supplies of clean water and coal (or oil) would be quite simple. Training employees would also take some time. There are a "lot" of firemen, engineers, and such, but I can't imagine the proportion of them wanting to be line employees working steam power would be very high

[@Cragified]

@@frontagulus The infrastructure to support steam locomotives simply does not exist anymore and would cost as much if not more to even attempt. Water towers are all gone. Coal docks, steam mechanics only exist in preservation. Parts such as brake shoes do not exist anymore for steam locomotives. They have to be custom ordered. These problems are why diesel locomotives accompany excursion trains. Dynamic braking and diesel assistance to stretch water consumption and wear. It's not for electrical power as UP adds a generator car for that on their excursions.

[@nathanielcruz6675]

Everett Railroad #11 is a 2-6-0 "Mogul" type steam locomotive built by ALCO in 1920, originally for export to Cuba. When plans to export the locomotive to Cuba fell through, it was sold in 1923 to the Narragansett Pier Railroad in Peace Dale, RI where it operated until 1937. Originally built as an oil burner, it was later converted to a coal burner. It was later sold in 1938 to the Bath & Hammondsport Railroad in Hammondsport, NY and operated there until its retirement from regular service in 1949. In 1981, it later was sold again to the Middletown & New Jersey Railroad in Middletown, NY, but would never operate on that line. In 2006, it was finally sold to the Everett Railroad in Hollidaysburg, PA and later restored to operating condition in October 2015. As of today, it is still operational and used in excursion service at the Everett Railroad between Hollidaysburg and the wye at Martinsburg Junction. In March 2022, it was recently converted from burning coal back to burning oil.

[@briangreen9677]
