To order, please visit my website at: steamtrainvideo...
Eureka and Palisade 4-4-0 #4 runs for possibly the last time during the 2012 Railfest on the Durango and Silverton. An authentic 1875 Baldwin built wood-burner, the 'Eureka' was lovingly restored to operation in 1991 by owner Dan Markoff. In 2013 the locomotive will be due for its FRA 15 year / 1472 day inspection and may not operate in Colorado again.

Colorado is beautiful and so are these old trains. I love it.

[@georgeboyd2774]

Absolutely! I took my July 2015 vacation in Colorado. I stayed with a friend of mine in Castle Rock, also visited Rocky Mountain National Park, and drove to the summit of Pikes Peak. I wouldn't mind living in Castle Rock, but moving is so expensive.

[@fritzrue]

Beautiful! Hard to believe most engines were this way at one time.

[@austin12ascot]

Oh wow. For such an uneven track, it certainly flies along. It takes that steep mountain gradient in it's stride. Such a beautiful line. I am adding it to my bucket list.

[@MarkJohnson-jc9tn]

What a beautifully crafted video, no irritating music, nothing there that shouldn't be, everything that should. Just superb. 😀

[@dutchsteamworks3548]

The whistle of this locomotive sounds so beautiful!

[@lowrangemaniac5326]

She's a tenor!

[@leevanciel3397]

Yes

[@jockellis]

The owner said he let Mick Jagger "drive" this engine and nearly couldn't get him out of the cab he was having so much fun. He advised any steam locomotive owner to be wary of offering Jagger the right seat.

[@FlyingScott]

American engines are right-hand driven? The more you know...

[@belabbesbouzidi3240]

Ilove trains it.s nice vidéo iam SNTF from algeria

[@alvit123]

In America the term "Driving" in incorrect in America. It's important to stress the fact that the term "driving" is incorrect. the Engineer "operates" the train is correct

[@garyruxton5226]

Briefly past 4:53, it's like we are looking at a model train layout then that beautiful sound brings you back to reality. Only the WW&F up a grade makes me think of it.

[@philipg52]

Just what is it about these old trains that has taken over my life and home.Is it the sounds,the scenery,the history,the look of the incredible engines,the caboose,the crew or is it the childhood memory of the old western films such as "The General,Go west" and of course "Casey Jones" the children's TV series.Now you can't move in my house for train sets,still in their boxes.Retire in about sixteen months,then comes the garden railroad.Rocky mountain style of course and I'm a brit.

[@Russell1971]

That's one FINE little locomotive, and the Eureka ROCKS - that's all I can say!

[@belabbesbouzidi3240]

Ilove trains it.s nice vidéo iam SNTF from algeria

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

Love those 'ol Old West stuff! :-) @4:37 What a spectaculary view / scenery!!! AWESOME

[@Yosemite-George-61]

...when I was young I wanted a ride on a fighter airplane... now I want a ride on a wood burning steam train... Thanks for "the ride" !

[@BCSchmerker]

Thanks for this demo vid of how period gear ran when the Denver & Rio Grande still owned the Durango-Silverton section; I figured the fireman was stoking the well-worn Baldwin at one moment when the smoke got light, then heavy on the 2.5% grade north of Needleton.

[@davidfrobel7582]

very nice, a true wood berner,,,thanks for shering.

[@johnlant1730]

HELLO CAN I COME MY FAMILY AND TAKE A RIDE I LIVE IN LAKE ISABELLA CA.....

[@TestECull]

Beautiful song coming out the stack, too. That chuffing is amazing, bugs me when these guys running historic steam locos lean on the whistle like they're trying to play a song on it when the real song's coming out of the stack the entire time the thing's running.

[@LeonardoMaster2006]

I agree.

[@fritzrue]

Fabulous! Takes your breathe away! And to think it was all this way once upon a time! Great camera work too!

[@Barb5001]

WOW.......An early wood burner in the Rockies... great ! :)

[@modelsof1900]

Wonderful pictures of the past - I love these fine restored, old engines! I have linked it on my website.

[@TheAutisticCapricorn811]

Watching something as decent and innovative as this can really put you on a invigorating level of what the world of trains can be.

[@ancientspiritmusic]

Beautiful locomotive! It's whistle sounds like something from the past. Thanks for sharing your video!

[@dabcorn]

wow, what a fine old machine!

[@FromHolbergsTime]

A beautiful rail adventure, capturing the allure of historic railroading! Glenn

[@vishwajitpawar4076]

Lovely steam engine. Nice colour. Superb video and information. Beautiful scenery of hills and landscape.

[@solosigal]

From Chile I say: greetings. Very nice video Thanks for the job !

[@davidarturojaimes691]

That locomotive is beautiful!!!!!!

[@vidfreak727]

i love that black and gold color scheme on the 4-4-0!

[@chuck6187]

That was absolutely beautiful!

[@baritonebynight]

Beautiful engine, love wood burners.

[@bastouneuroatypicmusic6885]

The most beautiful locomotive and train that i have seen all over my life ! We haven't this in our sad europe... snif

[@bluemoon-pm5hv]

I just love these trains,the real work horse of America ✌❤

[@RobloxGenius]

How beautiful! It does not contaminate the environment because it releases water vapor

[@Grasshopper80s4ever]

what a beautiful train

[@flyurway]

Nice video, awesome scenery!

[@alvit123]

I absolutely love the sound of Eureka Baldwin hooter steam whistles 😀😀👌👌

[@noahtheowl7107]

Magnificent piece of still working history right here.

[@enriquegonzalez2415]

I love Colorado

[@piloto1leafar]

me encantó este video , soy amante de los ferrocarriles y mas de los anteriores,,,FELICIDADES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@florianchurch]

Wonderful movies with this romantic steamlocomotive ! Thanks for positing.

[@KiwiPowerNZ]

Superb! What a magnificent engine!

[@4123jstein]

Mighty fine effort! Nice to see the Eureka operating again.

[@spaguettoltd.7933]

This is the fastest 4-4-0 video I've seen!

[@ericdunn998]

From the 4:50 mark on it looks like you're looking down at a model train layout.

[@TankdozerCavalry]

Anything's a model if you think big enough.

[@AlbertBolink]

Nederland heeft ook enkele museum- / stoomlijnen , en het blijft fantastisch om deze ouderwetse erfstukken te zien rijden. Wat een mooie hobby moet dit zijn , zelf rijden met een trein. Op het juiste moment water in de ketel erbij en ook op het juiste moment een schep kolen op het vuur doen. Albert Bolink - Hengelo Ov.

[@camposwilliam62]

Wow, you can even see all the soot coming from the smoke over head!

[@marywohletz5570]

This reminds me of .The little engine that could! I wish I was having a ride!

[@trainzillamodelrailroading9905]

The little engine was a 4-2-0. This is a 4-4-0

Beautiful engine

[@jotabatistabatista2931]

Muito linda essa locomotiva, a chaminé em formato de diamante, deu um charme á mais.

[@kevinrichards3288]

I ❤ those old steam engines. I think it was the 1960s when steam engines phased out & then more diesel & electric engines took their places.

[@ronhoffstein8142]

Dang, but she's a purdy little thang. Never saw one of those real old timers in my recollection, but sure do live the bloodline.

What the Boilermaker Special was fashioned after! Boiler Up!

[@JungleYT]

Too bad KZbin can't pick up the muffled rumble of the boiler... That's a really unique sound.

[@djmpvae27091978]

Welcome 2 the Wild West.

[@wolfdenpaul]

That is totally awesome, very good job on video.

[@Steamtrainvideos]

It's narrow gauge (3-foot gauge), but still technically full scale as it's not a model or scaled down from something larger.

[@kapitansievers1290]

best video ever

[@bastouneuroatypicmusic6885]

Im french, we have lot of good locomotives in our history but, this train is the most beautifull train in the whole world ! Keep this preciously american cousins !!!!

[@tracyontiveros4989]

Can't wait to have her here at Cumbres & Toltec Scenic RR in August!

[@nightlightabcd]

Steam Train - Great vid and great scenery to. What year was this engine made?

[@EdWhizAviationTrains]

Stunning footage my Friend, LOVED it 👍😎🚂

[@kansasstatealerting2874]

Doesn’t this engine sit in some guys garage when it isn’t being used?

[@Veznov]

this train has the same whistle as the Calumet & Hecla Mining Co. torch lake - Train which runs around the circumference of Greenfield Village Dearborn MI

[@ernielundquist2869]

The clarity on some of those scenes was so clear it was as though I could reach through my laptop and touch the passenger car.

[@DRGW168]

Wow, that footage was great and well put together, another fine video on my favorite railroad.

[@ertegunrex1]

I want to make it out there someday soon.

[@drfunk411]

great catch james!

[@wayinfront1]

Delightful. Shared this on Fbook.

[@yakubnatal906]

Why does people hate this awesome video

[@ghall1964]

I think I can, I think I can,I think I can. I know I can, I know I can. Lol

[@LeonardoMaster2006]

Good reference Hehehe

[@jandoerlidoe3412]

2012.... soon that is 10 years ago.... in that time our world did change quit a lot & will never be the same anymore...

[@Steamtrainvideos]

Embers from the wood fire, and boy do they burn when they land on you!

[@Altair9678]

When did they get a 440? I just thought they had the mikados. Any way makes me feel like I'm back in the 1860's.

[@steam4ever570]

The D&S does not own this. The Eureka & Palisades #4 is owned by Dan Markoff from Las Vegas, NV. and usually runs on the D&S once a year as a guest locomotive (Usually at Railfest).

[@kimsoohyun9517]

[@premekhomola_BugrGoregrind]

Very nice!

[@excitablepack7076]

Now THAT is a real train!

[@yankee.98]

Now, watch a vid of the TGV ^^

[@karynfelix-the-Cat]

Love it!!

[@xenonproductions1990]

its chimny smoke looks so clean, i see that wood diet helps alot

[@MrEnri72]

Spettacolare !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@SouthCalifas619]

This literally looks like one of those trainsets you out under the christmas tree. The ones that blow out the little smoke. Its so surreal and mind blowing to see this in actual size, like a toy come to life.

[@КатяУшакова-г6о]

Добрый вам вечер Уважаемый Автор этого замечательного видео спасибо вам огромное за это прекрасное видео и дай вам бог крепкого здоровья и ещё здоровья счастья успехов в ваших делах с Уважением К вам Катя Ушакова!!!😍😍😍😍😍

[@marcosmolina9851]

I REMEBER IT HARD TO BOARD,EVEN THOW IT,S SMALL LOST MY PISTOL,CINDERS IN THE EYES,JUST A BAD DAY FORTRYING SOMETHING NEW! :)

[@bushranger51]

Is this the same railroad that's featured in the John Wayne movie "The Sons of Katie Elder"?, cause if it is then it's a very awe-inspiring piece of railroad building.

[@blackstone1a]

i used to have this

[@ghall1964]

Was this originally a.standard gauge locomotive? For some reason I thought all these Eureka , Jupiter type locomotives were.

[@CHAS1422]

Many locomotives were re-tooled for the narrow gauge. The Baldwin 4-4-0, the Mogul, or the Mason Boogie, are just some examples.

[@Rockinrailroader765]

Woot, I turned this on when they were only 4 views lol!

[@bastouneuroatypicmusic6885]

Where is the time machine ?

[@MrJuniorbatistabr]

Tks to upload this vídeo, i live so far from,,,,in BRAZIL, and don't have a chance to see by myself!!!

[@josephwatts790]

did you know that there is a Trainz model of Eureka&Palisade #4?

[@UTubeGlennAR]

Anyone know how the 2o13 inspection went that was mentioned in the description?

[@GrumpSkull]

That was cool! My Accucraft and Bachmann large scale models look just the same.

[@abbeyhall4624]

Do my eyes deceive me, but I had thought these locomotives where much larger in size!

[@padillaalondra9654]

clasic

[@Ischaue]

Druecke die Daumen!

[@SleeTheSloth]

Nice video. I have a model of this locomotive in G scale. :)

[@salemcripple]

I guess i'm just use to seeing 4-4-0's like the leviathan and the Jupiter.

[@ReconstructedYankee1882]

Isn't she a beauty😍

[@salemcripple]

Is that a full scale 4-4-0? It seems so tiny!

[@ratecoudo]

I think it was built back in the 19 century.

[@daveaustin3161]

for the record it was built in 1875.

[@jmtrainz2582]

1874*

[@caseyjonesfan]

That is fly ash when the fire burns it throws smoke out right well the smoke moves so fast it picks up as and throws it out this mostly happens on wood burning trains and stoves hope this helped you under stand what it was

[@choppergirl]

Blows my mind still you can make an vehicle that can run on burning... almost anything with enough energy density. I think I'm seeing firewood being carried, not coal.
