    This is one of the best informational videos I've seen - on any subject. My brain is struggling, though, with the direction reversal process. I can't quite see how performing the same motion allows you to reverse direction. I'm obviously missing something.

    Maybe one day you can reshoot in HD as it is interesting. Does two people m one on each side make it easier as it would appear with only one connecting rod, it would not do as much with two people as I would have thought.

    Just wanna say that this whole 8 minute video could've easily been done in less than 2 minutes. And were the shots of the horse and steam train really necessary? Like we didn't know what either were so you had to spend the time to show us what a horse is....? All this did was waste so much of my time

      This is railscout’s wife. You just cannot please everyone. It’s your world, we just live in it, right? My husband was passionate about educating anyone who chose to learn about anything railroad related in particular. There was no greater person on earth. Please think about your negativity towards my husband who passed away doing what he loved- operating a locomotive.

    • @larrysnutz

    My Grandfather worked on the NSWGR (New South Wales Government Railways), in Australia for 46 Years: It was his First and Only Job that he ever had (1927-1973). He spent most of his career moving around Country Towns in N.S.W., until the early 1950's, as a Fettler and then a Ganger (the Leader of a Gang of Fettlers); and then moved to Sydney. He spent the rest of his working life in the old Darling Harbour Railway Yard, and finally at Eveleigh Railway Yards. During his time in the country towns, he road a 3 Wheeled Pushcar (also know as a Railway Trike): I can remember when I was VERY Young (maybe 5 or 6 years old), he took me for a ride. I can remember it like it was yesterday. In case anyone is wondering, there were No O.H.&S. Restrictions back then like there is today, and they knew when the next Train was coming through. One thing that wasn't mentioned in that Video about removing them from the Track: It wasn't always practical to virtually Lift One End Off and Push It Away, and doing so, could Damage The Wheels. There were Wooden Platforms (probably about 1.5 x 2 metres - I can't recall exact dimensions) randomly placed along the track: Mostly where the Track was higher than Ground Level. If they were expecting a Train, they would move along to the nearest Platform, and either Lift It just Flip It Over onto the Platform.

      It is a great video. This is Railscout’s wife. I took some of the footage on this video. I think he acknowledged me in the credits at the end. As difficult it is to say this, he passed away in May 2017. No sickness, no nothing. Just suddenly. He lived and breathed railroad. The hand car is a custom built replica of a Kansas City and Springfield something. Custom made somewhere in Iowa. Thank you for your comment. He would have enjoyed it and most likely have replied with something educational about the hand car or something similar.
