Steam in the Summer

If you like steam locomotives, then summer is a great time! With several steamers running in various parts of the country, it is not hard to find some steam.
In this program, you will visit 6 steam locomotives or railroads, old and not-so-old, big and small, running through a variety of interesting scenery.
Your video visit will include: The incredible Cumbres & Toltec in New Mexico and Colorado with 2-8-2 #484 & 487, Nickel Plate Road 2-8-2 #587 pulling the Indiana State Fair train, Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum 2-8-0 #610 pulling passenger trains in Chattanooga, Eureka & Palisade 4-4-0 #4, built in 1875, running on Colorado's stunning Durango & Silverton, Ohio Central 4-6-2 #1293 pulling a passenger train through Ohio's Amish Country, and Norfolk & Western 4-8-4 #611 roaring through Ohio.
You'll enjoy incredible lineside action with lots of smoke, steam and whistling, as well as in-cab scenes.

It's so good to see this show again, as well as the rest of the Steam In The series! These were the main reason I got into steam locomotives and railroading. In fact, watching the Golden Age of Steam collection at my grandparents place is one of my core memories. Sadly, he's no longer with us, but last year I got permission from my grandma to take the collection home with me, so now I have a piece of him with me always. And I'm sure he's up there smiling, running on that great big golden railroad in the sky... Thank you, Railway Productions, for all the good memories!

OH YEEEEESSSSS LEEEEEETTTTTSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@Aidan_Rattlehead]

This movie is probably one of the reasons why I’m into trains as much as I am, especially when it comes to the narrow gauge. Many badass memories were made with this movie.

[@RailwayProductions]

Glad you've enjoyed it. I had fun shooting it.

[@brucetharpe762]

This particular show was when I first laid eyes on the 611 on a screen when I was just 4! I’ve loved her ever since, the finest steam locomotive ever built period!

[@Buynot]

This program was one of my favorites growing up. So much that I actually wore the DVD out and it cracked. Like others have said this is what helped spur my love of steam railroading and trains in general. Awesome to see that you're uploading these in full to KZbin now!

[@isaaccope8580]

I love this show, my favorite engines are the Nickel Plate Road 587 and Norfolk and Western 611

[@damiancameron3614]

Same here

[@ethanmorel2746]

You guys know or not that they doubleheaded together for the Independence Limited excursion from Cleveland to Roanoke. The 587 has a special place in my heart as she pulled Richard Nixon’s Campaign Train and was retired in Frankfort where my dad and his friend, Bob Hargesheimer, had a factory adjacent to the tracks.

Hi, guys. I'm sorry I missed the premiere of this program.

[@FranTheTrainfan]

First program i ever had. Thanks to it i fell in love with trains in general. Thank you RP for this!

[@RailwayProductions]

Our pleasure!

[@c.northway8061]

I had been to the TVRM when they had Southern 4501 running. It was very interesting indeed

[@matthewpowell2429]

Me too. In fact, 4501 was the very first mainline standard gauge locomotive I ever rode behind, which I find coincidental because she's "The Engine That Started It All". The first excursion of the East, the first operating steam engine of the TVRM, and then the first steam engine I ever rode behind.

[@jacobdolman3831]

56:36 Hi 480 and 482

[@maxwellwalcher6420]

Yay here we go.

[@cwniehaus6487]

so many units that are a great chase. unfortunately, 587 has now been down for over 15 yrs now, awaiting refit. 611 was fired up again a few yrs back, and once again is pulling excursion trains. also, the ITM (Indiana Transportation museum) got kicked out of noblesville, the property reclaimed, and the tracks to the state fair ripped up. the ITM has a new home in kokomo, In. , and 587 is in a shop in KY gettting restored. Great video.

[@jacobdolman3831]

[@TNRailProductions_01]

For its age, this is a wonderful program. I really enjoyed the TVRM 610 segment. Great video.

I wish it can run again, but it has been out of service for over a decade now.

[@MJMYouTuber]

Well it's still spring but later will be summer!!!!

[@MJMYouTuber]

Well the Norfolk and western was still at Strasburg railroad today!!

[@coreypeters4170]

[@nikhilmurthy7096]

1:23:38 This statement is outdated because of 611's restoration in 2015. Footage of 611 post-2015 can be seen in "N&W 611 on Home Rails."

[@MackeyBigBoy4014]

This was published in 2005 when 611 was on display at VMT.

[@rogerlollar4325]

I bet the male railfans hearts pound out of their chests cartoon style when 611 is around

[@matthewpowell2429]

This program was the first time I ever saw 587 outside of her hit movie. Although I have seen 611 in other children's media before watching this, Steam in the Summer is where I first learned my first historical info on 611.

[@BNSFfan1848]

[@maxwellwalcher6420]

There's jay Norfolk & western 611.

KSHC recently acquired #587 and it is out of service and is discussing matters concerning restoration plans for the locomotive. I hope it returns to steam one day

30:18 Imagine this scenario: You are new to the Noblesville/Fishers area between 1989 and 2003. Your knowledge of trains is limited and part of that limited knowledge is that there used to be steam trains, but they aren't around. You then hear Nickel Plate Road 587's whistle on one of her last runs of the day, and because it's at night, you think that it's a ghost train. You freak out until someone who was watching the train before she finishes her day says,"you fool! That's no ghost train, that's the Nickel Plate 587 on the Indiana Transportation Museum Fair train!" You then start to feel foolish for thinking that it's a ghost train, and as you head back to your home, you start to wonder if all the steam trains are really completely gone.
