The only thing running these poor bastards isn't a driver, it isn't coal, they're not ran by ghosts at all. The thing that keeps them running is the strong emotion, and force, of agony, for both had seen very hard times in their lifetime.... It's a fnaf reference for those who don't understand.

Fun Fact.... There is a BR52 German WW2 Kriegslokomotive´. These things were not built to last but to win the War. Even the things that were not meant to last, are still willing to live.

Wow, I think the bushings on the connecting rods are gone. That is the clanking noise. And I don't mean worn out, I mean missing in action. Very cool video though.
Even in a museum it would be nice if the locomotive can be repaired and put back in service. this way the museum benefits from the knowledge that what it is doing helps the future get to know the past. Wish I could be there to help.

There’s a Union Pacific that they actually restored right near where I live. Still runs sometimes for tourists on a smaller line, but most of the time you’re free to get up close and take a better look.
The "Clang-clang" seems to come from the connector bar to the center wheel on the second engine. The bearing is gone and the pin is banging against the hub. Look closely at the close up at 2:47.
They should have removed the main rods. Moving the pistons in the cylinders without proper lubrication can badly score the cylinder walls. Also the second engine had no rod bearings in it! The rhythmic clanking you hear is the crank pins beating themselves against the open rod ends. Good way to damage stuff.
If I saw this in real life, there is two possibilities that could happen : 1. At day time, I just going to find a way to hop in it. And spend a bit of time to have fun ride along with it. 2. At night time, I just going to Run!!! As far as possible in order to survive from the ghost train. BTW I remember back in like 2015 or maybe 2016 that the first time I saw this video, at that time I was 14-15 years old and now I almost 20 years old. And the best part of watching old video is, it's bring back the old good memories from the past, and make you feel like deja vu. And because of that you guessing what's next and sometimes is correct and sometimes is wrong, just like a little memory quiz.
if these Beauty's are still around one day i would love to restore one if them to working order I'm currently 19 years old (turning 20 this year) but I've had a huge love for trains since i was born and seeing all these steam trains being restored and some currently working (ie UP 844, UP 4014, UP 3985, NKP 765, PM 1225, R&N 425, and a bunch of others) these Beauty's would be amazing to see working again or maybe a different steam train that should be brought back. if i was given the chance to pick one steam train of my choice to restore to fully working order most people might be a bit surprised (or maybe not who knows) i would end up choosing UP 9000, yes it would be a pain the arse to restore and maintain but think about it, there restoring Big Boy 4014 and then we have the lovely folks of the T1 trust building a brand new steam train from the rails up i say if they could do it i could to (with all help and equipment of course)
