WOW. Thanks so much for recording this GORGEOUS machine and letting us watch it. This mechanical marvel was made by men without computers. Watched this with my 3 year old son and we both were mesmorized. Great shots out the car window. KIDS keep this stuff ‘alive’.

Can’t they burn the oil more cleanly and efficiently?
I dislike the “steamboat” whistle.
Amazingly steady video from your vehicle.
Special mount?
What caused the wheels to slip?
Thank you for your interesting video.
When possible, always show grade crossings in case there is a train/vehicle collision.

That diesel engine is an insult to this majestic lady of the rails. UP should get rid of the diesel. Great video, love steam engines.
