🟢 Henry's Theme (Sad) -- www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9Khc...
🎵 Cover by Luke Pickman -- / instrumentmaniac
Steam locomotives were a crucial element of society for over a century. The revolution of trains helped to connect the world in a way that had never been seen before. However, by the mid 20th century, things were changing. Trains still existed, but the steam engines were being replaced with new, sleek, diesel locomotives. These new innovations were nice, but many realized that soon, steam power would no longer exist on the rails. Many, thankfully, chose to do something about it and created what would become heritage railways.
"A heritage railway or heritage railroad (US usage) is a railway operated as living history to re-create or preserve railway scenes of the past. Heritage railways are often old railway lines preserved in a state depicting a period (or periods) in the history of rail transport."
