  • For this video, I felt the sound of the train was sufficient enough in telling the story from 2015's return trip to Cadillac. June 6 was the first time the locomotive had been this far north, making it a trip worth chasing. To start the video off, a few of the Steam Railroading Institute's volunteers shared their story with me about what it's like to work on the big Berkshire.

    I like the views of having a camera mounted on front of the Steamer, it give you a great view and sounds are great from it too. Next time I would a second camera facing the rear seeing the action of all those parts moving and dancing down the rails. When you have the sounds of music from this engine you do not need anything else.

    Ok, curious. I love the 1225 and its sound, but every time its whistle blows the shrill nature causes the mics used to over-correct and it sounds... off. Anyone know of properly balanced whistle sounds videos or files?

      @ResetVlogz It was pure happenstance and coincidence that the Pere Marquette 1225 was the easiest to pull out of the dead line to be delivered to Michigan State University. That’s where Chris Van Allsburg, the guy who wrote The Polar Express, found it. He wrote the book based off of his experiences climbing on the engine as a kid. Pere Marquette 1225. Christmas Day 12/25. One of the best coincidences ever

      @engineer6325 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe it is a Nathan 6 chime steptop. I say it this way, because it IS a Nathan 6 chime, but it sounds like no other Nathan 6 chime out there. I don't know if this is because it has been modified or it's some variant, but it is certainly "unique" with it's sound.
