2:45 this engine has a whistle that fits this engine perfectly!

[@danielcreed2328]

I find it quite unfiting, as this locomotive was built in America. Thier whistles tend be loud and low-toned

[@florjanbrudar692]

@@danielcreed2328 You're talking about a three-chimed steam whistle, which I'm pretty sure none of these USA class tank engines had.

A wonderful tank engine from my home country United States of America.

That exhaust beat though... beautiful

[@johnbrown9092]

Love this little engine. Sounds really powerful although the occasional wheels slip. Great video.

[@ahoseason]

well done, some great perspectives. thanks for sharing.

Great to see this loco at work. It is many years since its classmate at KWVR ran. I quite miss it! Interesting that 3 locos found their way in NCB work.

Nice to see people driving the USA properly!!!

[@stamrly418]

Very nice video of a working loco. Doing what it did day by day. A lovely recreation and great video work. Amacf

[@justine_rolf1997]

This is the engine where Rosie from Thomas & Friends was based

1:44 Was it supposed to be making that screeching noise?

[@mattsmocs3281]

Not many of this class is left. This year USA 5002 is under restoration in its home state of Pennsylvania to run short tourist train runs.

[@kineticrail]

great video amazing shots of the yankie tank powering up the line. never quite understood how these charters work if you go do you get access to lineside etc while they do a couple of passes with the loco and train

[@preservedrailway]

Thanks. Yep they work by transporting you in locations in the train and then performing a number of run pasts at each location.

[@kineticrail]

Thanks for explaining it for me i may have to get myself booked on one

[@johnbrown9092]

Super little tank engine.

[@malcolmbrown3532]

Indeed the N.C.B. trio including Hartley Main No 35, were decidedly none standard design by UK standards and didn't survive long into the fifties. Not surprising really what with many "Army Surplus" Austerity [LNER J94 as a batch became] and new build direct from the makers 0-6-0 tanks available.

Just by listening to it you can tell it's American!
