How the Tod Engine and 58 were saved. Lecture at Youngstown Historical Center of Industry and Labor

[@Svideoplayer]

What a huge achievement Rick! You and your team are amongst the real industrial heritage caretakers of this world. About ten years ago I came across your channel and get wise to Youngstown and its major role in the early American steel industry. Great to see this all in retrospect again. Keep the museum alive; best regards from europe.

What a labor of love. Thanks for persevering this history for the future!

I’ve been following you for a few years now and this lecture explains all sorts of stuff. You seem to break every rule about making Utube content (as does this one) and still come out with loads of stuff that is very watchable. Takes a certain talent. Best wishes and rhanks.

I first heard of you and the Tod Engine on KZbin, I think it was. Said to myself, they can never move that monster steam engine! And then you started acquiring the mill engines. WOW! the heaviest narrow gauge (24-inch) locos in the USA. And you have several of them! TM, narrow gauge fan

Good to see the Tod getting some love again as the little ingots had been stealing the show for awhile but what a fine collection you have been assembling there.

Late night --early morns visited the FINKL MILL IN CHICAGO...SIMILAR FASCINATION.. Arc furnace and pours of pigs etc.. very interesting -- cloud of fumes , sparks , throbbing electrodes and general heavy mill activity.. Hope they saved some of the guts..very old site.. Hmmm.
