Now this is a quality video that REAL Steam guys want to see, (though the images shown are a little bit on the "soft" side), and I understand it that unless one goes out and "coughs-up" several thousands of dollars for a 5K camera, (I'm guessing), that may be used once or twice in a lifetime...it stands to reason and makes complete sense. I've ridden behind her, (or was it 2100 or 2101?) back in the late 60's on GTW rail. A brutally handsome locomotive but nothing compared to GTW's own U3b class Northern's, (sorry, but I grew up on the road's Detroit / Holly subdivision). None-the-less though, once 2100 gets back under Steam, it'll be great to see, (hopefully), the two of them paired up on the Reading and Northern...Excellent job guy's!!!
Just out of curiosity, the marker lights on top of the tender, (as I've seen on all T-1's), what is their purpose outside of decoration? I'm assuming they were used on the end of the tender when the locomotive was placed into a "pushing" situation on long freight trains as mandated by the FRA. How close am I?
I use a canon M50 mk II, very inexpensive and easy to use would recommend for a beginner. I appreciate you and your comment. Keep an eye open for my 765 video hopefully coming out next week.
This was such a fun day. She's a joy to ride behind.
Absolutely!

If I hit 1,000 subscribers I’ll get something that can shoot in 6k

They serve the same purpose as the marker lights on the front of the locomotive would!
Great question by the way!!!
I was on car 306 1917 built
This is amazing and probably the best 2102 video someone has ever done! What camera do you use?
