    Erie pacific 2936 is probably one of the best sounding locomotives I’ve heard

    What switches are the people hitting as they ride past.

    • @ericjonboone
      @ericjonboone 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Those buttons are for the signal system. There is no automatic block detection, so those switches clear the block they are leaving and claim the next.

    Did you get any video of the H10 after it derailed? I was riding behind it when it happened, it was really heavy.

    • @TheSteamChannel

      No, I towed it back to hidden valley after the derailment on Saturday with my switcher.

      I heard that he was going through a switch when it wasn't all the way switched so it derailed. He was going really fast through that signal.

    Were any of the freight cars built with any sort of functionality or are they just for decoration and mock-up loads? (Like say reffers carry cold drinks for the crews hoppers fuel for the steam trains tankers gas/water so on so forth?)

      Most have seats if you take the roofs off. I know Brian used to haul coal in them too.

  • @andrewnardo1021
    @andrewnardo1021 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do the boilers have to be certified and gone through after so many years like most other boilers do or are they not running high enough pressure? Just curious because I’m a welder in an ASME pressure vessel shop and stumbled on this.

    • @TheSteamChannel
      @TheSteamChannel  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It really varies by state. Some of these boilers are ASME certified. The boiler for the UP 844 that we are building will be. Some states exempt model boilers but usually each live steam club will require a hydro test be done every two years. If it fails the hydro test they won’t let you operate until the boiler is fixed.

      A pacific like the Erie would be north of $35,000+ if you had a shop do the fabrication
