    The engineer had to brush the seldome jused and rusty track. After this it works, sand was in use. The engineer worked very carefully. He tries to keep the train allways rolling, so ist ist easy to start. I have also some interesting vids of the electric and pre-war narrow gauge electric locos. The personal was very friendly. Please remember the methan-explosion in a mine next corner there 222 minors died. No problemes with taking pictures there-) Thanks a lot for yours friendly comments!

    That has got to be one of the most irritating things to deal with as a locomotive engineer. Hat's off to the crew,and thanks for sharing Wolfgang.

    several things come to mind, 1}new tires or retru those ones, 2} regrind or retru the rails or3} call in a service that will replace the rail and ties. that locomotive has got more than enough tractive effort to do the job their asking of it. Or when all else fails, THRASH IT!!!

    Tracks are probably coated with oil from all those leaky tricycles.

    Surprising video. The opening scene looks like someone's model railroad. The juddering noise that the train makes when the wheels slip was unexpected. Did you notice the way the second trike tilted when it ran over a rock just before parking? The driver gets out, walks around the back, picks up the rock and puts in front of the left rear wheel. I alway thought the chuffing of the steam engine was from steam expended from the cylinders, but watching the wheels slowly turning while the engine chuffs away tells me that is not the case.

    • @Qkumber
      @Qkumber 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Charles Pergiel you are right. The chuffing sound is from the steam that has been exhausted from the cylinders, but, the cylinders are directly connected to the wheels which is why when they slip, the wheels spin faster, the piston moves back and forth quicker and the steam is exhausted at a faster rate.

    • @Varinki
      @Varinki 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The fast continuous chuffing is the exhaust from the air brake pump.

    • @cpergiel

      Thank you. You have opened another door into the secret world of steam engines. Now I have to go research air brake pumps.

    Probably find the back sanders aren’t working but the front ones are. Hope the rail head was a bit drier further up the branch. I wonder how far he had to propel those logs?

    Great video and unusual spectacle. But wait: 222 miners died? What a HOLY EXAGGERATION. I need to clarify that only 28 died in that accident and less than 60 miners injured. I wonder how could such a nonsense number come into being. Maybe typing error? But that's a huge difference.

    Does anyone know what makes that regular pushh pushh pushh pushh sound that repeats about two times a second from the locomotive? It seems to be related to the narrower steam jet on the back of the chimney. I noticed it in many vids chowing type SY locomotives. Is that an air compressor or ...I don't know. Anybody knows?

    • @armagonarmagon3980
      @armagonarmagon3980 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe it is the exhaust for the air compressors... The Southern Pacific Cab Forwards made a very similar noise with their air compressors, just more sporadic and the air compressors never falling silent. There's a good video of their sound on TH-cam somewhere, just search "southern pacific cab forward", and it should be the one about SP 4274's last run over Donner Pass.

    • @tahititoutou3802
      @tahititoutou3802 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Armagon Armagon Thanks! I also thought of air compressors but wasn't sure.

    • @spentacle
      @spentacle 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Tahititoutou look up "Westinghouse air brake" There must be a bad air leak for it to pump that often though :)

    • @spentacle
      @spentacle 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Southeastern777 It could also be a boiler feed pump. I have driven a miniature loco fittted with one, but I thought full size locos usually relied in injectors.

    • @tahititoutou3802
      @tahititoutou3802 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      spentacle I don't think it would be due to defective Westinghouse brakes. I watched many other vids on Chinese rr (like those on Sandaoling, Fuxin and the like) and all of them have that noise.

    Da wird der Lokführer seinen Job und die Schienen verflucht haben. Sehenswert ist auch die "Überladung" der Wagen und die Ladungssicherung, auf elektrifizierten Strecken werden die Holzstämme ja schon fast zu Stromabnehmern... Ein Fest für europäische Wagenprüfer.

    Why not uncouple a few cars and move the train? Then return for the others?

    Du hast Recht, eine weitere Lok zieht Wagen aus der Zeche ab. Daher kommt ebenso der BÜ-Rengel-Dengel.
    Wir selber kamen mit dem Aschezug talabwärts gefahren. Insgesamt hat die Lok länger als eine halbe Stunde die dortigen Gleise gebügelt. Das Video ist 22 Min. lang, das komplette Abspielen wäre vermulich weniger schädlich für das Nagelbett? WERRAKIES: da muss man in einem anderen Raum-Zeit-Kontinuum leben. Für mein Alter ist das "Fliegenkost".

    He has no sand in that Direction only in the forward .all he needs is sand I have even had to but rock on the rail for Traction for my trains when my Sanders stop working..that engine is power enough for that job it can even be the steam valve might be Finnicky If you have a badd steam throttle it's hard to control your train to get a good smooth take off I work on a steam engines that was very bad it was so had to slowly let the steam out .

    Gary Plastek, thats is not a thing there just could happens in China ;-)
    I have an recording whit an frighttrain from the 60'ths, in my own country Denmark, with an class H steamlocomotive, on route from Fredericia to Kolding, and further to Esbjerg in the West . . .
    The sanding at the locomotive was out off ordre, whits resolts of the train could take the grade close west of Fredericia yard, and therefore ran out of steam on the middle at the grade, in those woods there are at the place ( it was at autum ;-) ).
    The whole record is about an half hour, but the train has surely hold too raise the steam at the place in a longer time than whats rocorded :-)
    By the way, the video from China is taken in the winter . . . that could easyly be 20 degree or lowerer under celsius . . .
    How would you showel sand up from the tracks under these condisions . . . ? ;-) :-D

    • @dreeves32able
      @dreeves32able 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      The pumping pounding sound comes from the air pump necessary for the locomotive brakes. The sand for the locomotive driving wheels is stored in one of the domes on top of the engine and is fed by gravity through pipes directly onto the track. Perhaps due to cold temperature the pipes may have been clogged or engine driver too stubborn to use sand? I wasn't there, were you?

  • @barryphillips7327
    @barryphillips7327 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Must be something really slippery on the rails the loco and it,s driver are trying their best! Maybe they do not have sand to put on the rails too help in this situation.

      What happens if communism would come to the arabian desert? nothing during the first six months, after that time we have got no sand anymore:-)
      Perhaps the sand -on top of the boiler- was empty, there was no sand existing, nobody was responsible for this job.
