      With humanoid characters so devoid of emotion that they can plausibly be considered zombies.... albeit pretty fat and well-kept zombies, considering the controller.
      Am I the only one who thought that the TV series was creepy??

    On the topic of possesed engines, theres an i famous engine from my country that went famous because it was so troublesome that they had to clean it 'spiritually' and after that it never got possesed again
    It also had a 'son' that has the same number just different year just because it went over the platform once

    My grandpa was a furniture consultant and often traveled to the South Pacific looking for sources of mahogany wood. During one of his trips he visited the Insular Lumber Co where he saw shay 10 running. The only reason I know this is I’ve got 2 slides of that engine running. This probably would’ve been about 1972-73. I saw insular lumber in the title and had to click on it!

    Would you please cover Sri Lanka's Main Line in one of your videos one day? It is a fascinating line and one of the most beautiful in the world; constructing it was a massive challenge as well.
    I think you'll find the Demodara Loop particularly fascinating.

    Woah, didn't expect a local locomotive would be featured here. Yes, this thing is still present and is on display in a plaza/park, along with smaller tender locomotives that worked in sugar fields long time ago, also displayed in different places around the island. There were even rare Shay locos that were once used for sugarcane hauling. Nice video, I didn't know this massive locomotive (by local standards) was very troublesome, or it could've been just too big for the local workers to handle, who knows..

    Of further note is that the lumber company got Siete used. She ran for lumber companies in the United States for several years without issue. It wasn't until she arrived in the Phillippines that her reputation began. I'm going to say that her issues were likely lack of care and maintenance, not a curse, though considering what she's been blamed for, it's hard to imagine her not being a bit upset over it all.

    Small note that I'm not sure if you knew, in Filipino and Spanish "Siete" is just the number 7 so while yes it was what they called the locomotive it wasn't exactly a title or a name given to it as was the vibe I got from the video.

    "If [steam locomotives] are alive, does that mean they have personalities? And by extension, does that mean they can be... malicious?" My dude, anyone who watches Hyce on the regular can answer both questions with a resounding "yes". D&RGW #491, my example locomotive, has been described as being like "your cat, who's happy to see you home but gets angry all over again" after she ate his fire rake 😂
