The passengers: "It's amazing how anyone still knows how to operate a steam engine this old. The train crew most definitely take their jobs really seriously!" The train crew:
There is a college in Minnesota that has a 2 course on how to operate steam engines you will still need to 40 hrs under with a live load/aka working on a pony brake or plowing a field etc. Under supervision of a licensed operator. WMSTR is the college they also hard a 4 day show during labor day weekend. They have a steam train that people can ride on. Its where i went and got my hobby license.
I presume in the old days the train would have had a caboose with a potbellied stove to boil their coffee and fry their dinner on. But I'm sure various things were experimented with using the firebox. You can bet somebody figured out how to steam a potato in there, that's for sure.
That was probably the most effective demonstration of the draft in that firebox you could possibly have done. Practically everyone is familiar with the heft of a grilled cheese sandwich, and watching it _take flight_ was highly demonstrative.
@Hyce that was _lightly_ working? Holy _smoke(box)_ just what can she do if she's _really_ huffing and puffing? Pull in a hardback textbook?! Like, a BigMcLargeHuge old school one? A _rock?!_
A LOCOMOTIVE pulls a TRAIN - a train does not have a firebox. Traditionally, in the UK, the footplate crew would cook their breakfast of bacon and eggs on the firing shovel in the firebox. 2:37
@@takemasu45 well imagine having people pay to get food that was cooked in a steam Locomotive, like what steam Locomotive enthusiast wouldn't want that?
Next has got to be the classic firebox fry-up! beans, eggs, bacon, tomatoes, sausage, the works! There's plenty of stories about shunters having too much time on their hands here and making a full English breakfast (and catching hell for it later)
Well done 👍💯😎 % for the tomato soup 🍲 reference indeed! This k37 kitchen should be a real cooking show on the food network! Proceeds go to the restoration of Steam Locamotor and the Colorado Railroad Museum
Just watched this again with my 4 year old. He wanted to know if you lived on the train because you had to cook in the firebox. 😂 He's also demanding grilled cheese for lunch tomorrow.
That intro almost made me die laughing Everything flies off into the fire box and burns Another good episode of K. - 37 kitchen A grilled cheese made in a fire box
491: "Oh, thanks!" SLURP A (more boring?) way to cook in a locomotive would be to heat the shovel in the firebox, then cook on the heated metal. That way the loco won't have as much of a chance to steal your sandwich! Using the real dairy product is so much butter than any substitutes. Less margarine of error. 😁
I heard Smells like Kenosha and I started cold-sweating, thinking the 491 was gonna put herself in the dirt or something. See what you have done to me, Hyce? _See what you have DONE?_ 😂
From what I have heard from a former boiler Tech for the US navy if you open the low pressure steam chest And drop The makings have a Rubin in itAnd pull it out after 5 it tends to be pretty good.
This is what I love so much about your channel. You do and show things no one else really does, and it opens a really cool and unique window into steam, it’s preservation, and even railroading as a whole… with a little tomfoolery along the way. For that, I say thank you. Long live the ES&D!
I honestly think the crew of 491 must had a great lunch that day 😋 😂 It's good too see k-37 kitchen is back, this was another amazing Hyce keep up the great work and I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend! 😎❤
It honestly makes me wonder if way back in the day when steam was more common whether or not they actually would cook in the firebox? Imagine a logging train crew stopping for the night and cooking up some venison somebody hunted up on the mountain. It's an interesting concept.
I still remember my grandpa telling stories of how during the winter months my grandma would make him sourcrout and kielbasi sandwiches wrapped in tin foil to take to work at the paper mill. The paper mill was approximately 7 miles away and had to walk because they couldnt afford a vehicle. Every once in a while he would get lucky timing to hop the train to near where the paper mill was, and on the way the locomotive driver would heat up my grandpa's sandwich in the furnace using the coal shovel. I sure miss my grandparents, the wholesome stories, and the times of the good ol' days when even simple/little things were so much more genuinely appreciated because many people didnt have much.
I've done a shovel cheese toastie before - goes lovely with a tin of beans. Never had the luxury of a second shovel, but I think the coal dust improves the flavour.
While you were making Grilled cheese you almost forgot the crew needed to give the K37 THE BEANS and that's always important to remember when making Grilled Cheese on your K-37.
Mark that was great. Oh my 491 was hungry! For sure she looks forward to tasting your latest treat. That coal scoop is so versatile isn’t it. 😂 Can’t wait for the next Mark’s choo choo test kitchen episode.
Home chiefs? Yes Hyce, everyone has a K-37 at home (I wish) great video I also love the conductor called the all clear and they said they need a few minutes lol
Very nice. I believe the English chaps that had a fry up on the footplate of their engine, well...for the lack of a better term..had a more "quaint" fire and firebox to work with. Did y'all confirm the engine is not lactose intolerant??! 🤣
In the UK on a steam loco you usually do your grub with the engine stationary , else as demonstrated here , it will fly off the shovel and up the chimney, the midland men used to custom drill holes in a shovel for this purpose so the bacon wouldn’t disappear!
You gotta try eggs with sausage or bacon. My great grandfather talked of making that alot, steaks, baked potatoes, and fresh coffee off the backhead where the oil cans get kept hot. Alot of the engines he cooked on were Reading Camelbacks and while flying down the line would walk up fresh cooked food on the running board to his Engineer up in the cab. Signal stops and station stops were great places to cook at while the engineer waited for the highball from the banjo signal or conductor.
You totally replicated the moment from old Top Gear with Clarkson and the steam train... He also tried to make a cheese sandwich while on the move in a steam train, and it also got sucked into the firebox, just a bit more violently than yours. Love these cooking with Hyce runs!
K-37 is hungry, can't even wait for Hyce to finish cooking. 20 year old me's grilled cheese of choice was 2 large slices of sough dough round fried open face in butter with sharp cheddar on both slices. Serve with cold sliced roast beef, possibly also bacon, and whole cup of strained cooked instant ramen for "texture". Eat while the meat is still cold for the nice temp contrast. Was likely like 1500+ cal, but it was the only thing I'd have eated all morning between part-time job were I'd often have walked 1-2 miles doing the least efficient routes around campus and before going on a 20 mile hike in the hills for the afternoon.
You need to get the bulk singles packs that are all unwrapped for grilling. It would've saved you the pain of trying to unwrap them one-handed. Love the cooking videos
Man that looks like a delicious burger. I remember being behind 2102 in the 80s going 50-60mph and eating hot dogs hanging out and the cinders and the like getting in the Famous Berks Hot dogs. Boy were they delicious
Mixing some packets of limpton onion soup mix with a touch of salt, pepper, and diced green onions in your ground beef. Toss ur patties on your pit over the wood of your choice and cook to your liking.
Great video to watch this morning, now I want a grilled cheese and I've never made one before 😂😂 or tasted. Wonderful video Mark H. I just love this, thank you for making these fantastic videos.
491 liked that first sandwich so much she decided she'd just have another, that's all. Which means 491 *really* likes grilled cheese sandwiches. That's my head canon now.
During the good old steam days, it was quite common for British firemen to fry bacon and eggs on the shovel, put it between two slices of bread and enjoy a smoked sandwich!
that draft of hers is insane i wonder if that bread even touched the coal would have peed laughing if someone got a video of the slice of bread shot out of the stack of 491
Love these in the kitchen videos! What's next, hot dogs or Smores? 😁 How about a cooking compitition at a future steam up having to use the locomotive to cook the entree.
If you took some metal mesh you could make sort of a cover that could clip on the shovel and keep the engine from eating the sandwich. I wonder how many people cooked this way back in the day.
What if instead of holding it in the fire you use the shovel as a giddle of sorts heat it up as much as you can and use it's residual heat to cook the sandwich.
I used to be a driver and there is the old story about driver cooking dinner on a hot engine block. It isn't entirely untrue. While I never used the block, I would stick my lunch in the dash and turn on the heater core. Better for you that gas station hot dogs I guess
To make grilled cheese you spread the butter on one side of the bread then the cheese then the bread and butter on one side for the top of the bread and the next one to do for the kitchen you should do burgers with cheese and see how fast you can get grilling

That was probably the most effective demonstration of the draft in that firebox you could possibly have done.

-Hyce 2023
And while you're cooking the grilled cheese in the firebox, you can heat up a can of tomato soup on the oil can shelf.
Oh god please let this happen
Maybe cut a vent in the top to prevent the can from exploding, but yeah you could do that theoretically.

1. How was the grilled cheese?
2. (Joke question) did the engine enjoy any grilled cheese that fell in the firebox?
The grilled cheese was solid! As tasty and nostalgic as it is at home. :)
491 told me she did enjoy the grilled cheese.
@@Hyce777 good to hear
@@Hyce777 she loved it so much that she got seconds before asking if it was okay!
@@Hyce777Hehehe, gave me a good chuckle.
'Smells Like Kenosha' was a really great touch for the airborn sandwich that Peaches ate off the coal scoop. Thanks for this fun video!
Smells like Cow-nosher, and tastes like it too.
They make those wire clam shell camp fire cookers least you wouldn't have the hoover effect of 491 claiming your sandwich
Hyce is like that chef character in that one lucky Luke movie, cooking stuff in the firebox while the fireman complains about it

Might need to sand that shovel to a mirror finish and finally make the mystical non-stick shovel
Grilled cheese is godly already but you just made it better
You've gotta use the deep heel of the shovel like a wok and make fried rice next!

I love how she waited until you finished making the first one to eat it.
Been waiting for this ever since k-37 kitchen was started and it did not disappoint (obviously)
Hello, can I take your order?. Me: Yes, I will take a grilled cheese from 491 please.
Waiter aka Hyce: all right, that’ll be 5 dollars your order Will be ready in 5.

This was a really fun video! Thanks for sharing and showing the true force of the firebox draft. I honestly had no idea it was that strong
I’m not first but I saw this go up in the first two minutes and my comment will surely be buried. Love your channel. Keep doing what you’re doing!!!
10:09 It's a Bird, It's a Plane, NO it's TOAST!
Oh man, that last sandwich looked perfect!
You don't need fancy cheese, but I want my cheese to contain more than 51% cheese, whatever kind of cheese it is.
good old american 'cheese product'
Is it just me or was "Smells like Kenosha playing when Peaches ate the 2nd sandwich?
Ironically my family had grilled cheese tonight for dinner.

Well that's a cute little novelty. I remember making pancakes on a fire.. extra smokey 😋
Yes, instead of coal we hear at the LS&D use grilled cheese instead of fuel, and next time for k37 kitchen let's make pizza pops

Seen my father do that. Kept a special shovel specifically for that purpose.
Love the intro, Guess you could say DGW number 491 was hungry for some Grilled cheese, shez gotta wait, it wasn't even done! XD Love your vids Hyce.
Thanks man!
Ay, anytime dude!
Also, I feel special about you replying to me.
I would love to see a piece of bread draft out the stack 😂

Ah yes making a grilled cheese with the heat from the hell flame
Gotta love the irl stuff ❤
i use mayonaise instead of butter much more flavor if you like mayo. maybe throw a slice of ham on it as well? either way got to do some steaks!
If you took some metal mesh you could make sort of a cover that could clip on the shovel and keep the engine from eating the sandwich. I wonder how many people cooked this way back in the day.
Need to see some baked beans at some point.
Give her the BEANZ!
Speed, power, B E A N Z !
What if instead of holding it in the fire you use the shovel as a giddle of sorts heat it up as much as you can and use it's residual heat to cook the sandwich.
