The hiss you mention is not the release of the brakes as you say. It is the pressure relief valve at the base of the air reservoir on the locomotive. You can clearly see it discharge at 7.27 just behind the fuel tank. 1720's were known to have them go off all the time. Knowing how the brakes work was part of my river training program.
I enjoyed the video,footage lack of music etc felt like you're there. My fave type. Only complaint is having to be a speed reader or having to rewind and pause. Some interesting facts to ingress. That's all I'm griping about. Cheers
