The sweetest thing is how much these guys love their train club and how welcoming they are. You can see their pride and nostalgia for the bygone days when trains were in 'full steam.' Let's Make Argentina Trains Again 🙂
I live 5 minutes away from the railway club and I am a member of it. Thanks for showing it. In Argentina, steam and diesel locomotives coexisted until approximately the end of the 1970s. Each of the railway lines in Argentina were named after the surnames of Argentine presidents after the nationalization process of the years 1946-1948. The railway lines that left from Buenos Aires to the south of the territory were called "General Roca railway", referring to the Argentine President (1898-1904).
Emocionante e interesante video! Soy del interior del país y no veo las horas de poder visitarlos... El vagón con el instrumental dinamométrico es increíble: Puede observarse en funcionamiento una computadora analógica mecánica, es genial! Felicitaciones a la gente tan apasionada y cordial que lo muestra. Así somos!!
The Ferroclub Argentina club is a beautiful place, the best in the province of Buenos Aires. I am a neighbor there and I have loved it since I was little, very good video, I subscribe to your channel.
Seeing a working steam train was the best...exciting...your video is interesting and beautiful...that they let you in to see that engine and for us it was SPECTACULAR too...! THANKS to the guys who take care of those trains...! Thank you for showing us so much and loving those machines...I love them too...thanks Garry
The last steam locomotives for non-turistic purposes in Argentina were still active until around 2005! In the RFIRT railway (also fun fact: they had a japanese origin, being made by mitshubishi)
But that isnt a national network railway. I think that in the national network the last steam locomotives (used for shunting) ran until 1978 (leaving outside "la Trochita" narrow gauge line which ran regular services until 1995 and after that only tourist trains).
Excellent video..! My family and I lived a few blocks from there until I was 18. The trains were there, but there was no FerroClub then, no public access to the site. My brothers used to go to the cafe sometimes, I'll go next time I'm in Argentina. Cheers
Amazing video!!!! That diesel Locomotive is designed as Baldwin Lima Hamilton, they actually have three of them. One you were inside, the second is that red antirust one (complete too and it's in working condition, but it must have a restoration) and the third it looks like scrap and its hidden (it was bought from someone who long time ago couldn't afford the trip, so the locomotive stays there). There's another Ferroclub in Lynch, near Bs As and you can go by train also, not as big as this. I hope that helps.
In the United States and Canada they used steam locomotives on major railroads until around the mid 1950s. China might still be using some steam locomotives for freight trains or were using them until very recently.
Hi Garry! Where are you from? I saw another video of The Argentine Air Force in Moron... Try to visit others Museums in BA... We are plenty of beautiful places with cool people and low cost tickets. Good luck. And come soon to Argentina!!
Steam locomotives are still being built, because steam is just a way to turn one source of energy into another. All nuclear power plants are steam engines.
@@GarryMikal Almost you have that in France. Except that is more practical to leave the power plant in a building and electrify the railroad line with his energy.
My personal wish is to see someday all Argentine railways lost infrastructure recovered
no happening if the govt is ruled by any kind of liberal
but should happen likein China
trains are the steel veins of a nation
never going to happen
@@daxentomasivern7744it’s possible with political will
@@nhzccg I would love to see that too

Sharknose is a cool name for a locomotive
I took my last train pulled by a steam locomotive in 1967, when I was a kid. From Buenos Aires to Bahia Blanca. Ferrocarril Roca.
Molto bene grazie frufru,.

9:57 i remember drinking mate in that exact place when i visited there!
precioso! no lo conocía, gracias!
9:31 Train In The Sky.
It is open on Saturdays and Sundays only, not on Fridays.
@@lucma1999 yes, my mistake 😶 thanks again for showing me around!
Diesel locomotives began to be used on a large scale in Argentina in 1957. Steam locomotives were discontinued in 1976.
In the United States and Canada they used steam locomotives on major railroads until around the mid 1950s.
China might still be using some steam locomotives for freight trains or were using them until very recently.
I know that at least in the UK they were still using steam engines well into the 60's.

@@Cirwlos nuclear powered trains... soon... hopefully
@@GarryMikal Almost you have that in France. Except that is more practical to leave the power plant in a building and electrify the railroad line with his energy.
@@Cirwlos ahhh yes, france does love their nuclear power
do you Know something Garry , all the people there in the ferroclub are retire or still work in the railwway and just for love to rail way
