- (How to watch with sound in the comment section is explained)Hi sorry I had to remove the original, but I didn't want to trigger some copyright strike by using the soundtrack, even if is not claimed I respect the authors and I remove it. The reupload is ~80GB uncompressed, with better noise reduction, the flags are still black, sorry no time to fix that.

This was filmed in Cottage Grove, Oregon using several vintage RR engines from a short line. The town still celebrates its part in the film. The film was a fiasco financially for Keaton, it never made its costs back. Only recently was this became a silent era treasure. Interestingly the wrecked locomotive was left in the creek until salvaged in WW2. Worth millions today
If by recently you mean the 1960s, then yes, it has been recently reassessed.
Thanks for that info.
Has the engine been restored? Where is it?
@@horseandcart5978 victim of a wartime scrap drive
I read that that particular crash scene was the most expensive in movie making up to that point, costing around $20,000. It was and still is truly spectacular.
A couple of interestng facts:
They didn't tell the girl she would get all wet when trying to refill the water tank on the train. this was so they could get a more realistic reaction in the scene.
The bridge collapse was a real scene, with a real engine destroyed.
Fantastic job and great to see someone else enjoys these old films. Keaton was a genius.
He's got a bravery more fierce than anyone in films since.
They should remake this movie for modern times but only if it’s done with respect and is good
View them in original bw. That's how they were made. Colourising just washes all the shading & textures & lighting away. It's vandalising history by the ignorant Twitter generations.
@@seltaeb3302 it still exists, so stop wining. It’s cool to see what they might have looked like in color.
I can't say I've watched a silent film before but I'm only 5 minutes in but, damn. You know precisely what is happening in every given moment, it was genius this movie.
Agreed. It's because Buster Keaton was an amazing film maker. He intentionally tried to keep the title cards down to a minimum and let the action tell the story whenever he could.
Amazing seeing a Civil War movie from 1926, it's like a movie about the Hungarian Revolution or Vietnam today
I feel sorry for you that you watched this wretched colourized version as your first silent.
Dark GT can kiss my ass.
DISGUSTING bastardization of a WORK OF ART they had NO BUSINESS TOUCHING.
It looks like cheap ass OVER PROCESSED waxy faced VIDEO, not GORGEOUS TEXTURED BLACK AND WHITE FILM.
Make no mistake. You were ROBBED of a VERY SPECIAL experience.
Thank you so much for this.
Who would ever have thought a movie from 1926 could look so good!
The colour makes the film look new and exciting.
Absolutely stunning!

Greatest movie ever! I never get tired of it, and you’ve given me a whole new reason to rewatch! Bless you. 😇
This movie, A True American Classic, is based on an actual event taken place during the Civil War. Called Great Locomotive Chase. Disney did it's own movie years after Keaton completed his comedy version. If you are interested the Disney title is, of course, "The Great Locomotive Chase" Starring Fess Parker.
No one could touch Keaton's commic version to my thinking, pure fun. Thank You for posting the film for another generation to discover. Well done!
I watched this movie back in 1927. It was a very good year ....
That's great, I'm glad to meet someone who watch it back in the days. How old are you now?
What a masterpiece of cinema.
This is truly incredible!
Every Keaton movies. We can see all the trains and boats. Really he was love theses.
Best healthy active fearless cunning actor seen in my life .Everyone will like his all acted films
One of the last times that I saw this was in a " Straw hat pizza " before they went out of business .
The place was packed and noisy but when this movie started the place was nearly dead quiet .
When Buster was on the General everybody cheered , a couple of guys myself included gave out with a Rebel Yell during the chase .
I scared the hell out of my friends and dates . I told them ( jokenly ) The. J R in my name was also for " Johnny Reb "
They said Yea Right and everyone around us also laughed .
I wish you Happy new 2020. I'm glad you are able to enjoy this great movie in color. This is my best achievement of the last year. Believe me when I told you how happy I was to reading your comments. Thank you.

What kind of visual reference do you need to do this extensive of a restoration and coloration did you look at things like production notes and prop archives?
This proofs us we don't need a language for enjoy a film
My favorite buster keaton movie
The best ever entertainment of last century and cetainely centuries ahead. Salute to great rainbow Artist Buster Keaton. Greetings from India. ,🇮🇳
WOW! THE GENERAL! @ age 63, I've mos def heard of Buster Keaton, that he was a silent film star & know what he looked like. I've nevah watched one of his films doh, & only memba his cameo as one of the waxworks playing bridge in Sunset Blvd. THE GENERAL! WOW! Young & funny lookin cute he was to me. Just think, he actually DID all those dangerous stunts. I AM A FAN! I absolutely LOVED The Kid with Charlie Chaplin too, the only other silent film that I've watched. WOW! MASTERPIECES free on TH-cam. Thanks. :-)
Now that you've dipped your toe into the silent era, I hope you keep going. You're in for a great time!
Thanks for Keaton in color!!!!!
Kolor Keaton
Don't be stupid. This is a insult. What is wrong with you people that you can't get your brain to comprehend. You are changing the history of film as it was made. When you view bw films take in the cameraman's work in light & shade. Whoever is doing this to be films needs locking up for vandalism.
@@seltaeb3302 nobody is stopping you from watching the original
Please colorize “Trader Horn,”MGM’s first talkie, circa 1933. Thank you for this film. It is delightful. Your work is very impressive. I’m 72 and never thought I would live to see this, a dream come true.
I'm quite pleased to hear that my work reach you. About your request , Trader Horn seems to be still under copyrights, also is not posted on TH-cam meaning that is also in the Content ID system of the TH-cam. I'm afraid you have to wait a few years to be able to see it.
Dark GT - Thank you for your response. I may run out of time before MGM runs out of copyrights. None the less, you do great work and I will be pleased to watch any of your colorized films. Again, thank you for your efforts on my behalf. You are appreciated more than you may know.
@@rascal0175 I wish you all best and long life. I'm sure you will be able to see that movie someday. I want to share this youtuber, a colleague in the colorizing hobby, I suggest asking him too, he may find a way : th-cam.com/channels/tLJ6MeriaF-g1FRDT0LiZw.html
wow. i have been looking at silent comedies for over 40 years. i also make them. i was never a fan of colorizing these at all UNTIL NOW. you have done incredible work here. thanks for all of your effort
These new coloring technologies are a big improvement over the tinted black and white of the late 1980s and 1990s. It's not perfect, but it actually simulates two-strip Technicolor pretty well.
An amazing work of film making. Using those train engines with the control of modern cars, amazing.
Thanks! Master piece 👌👌👌

Pure Gold!
This is great work - for a film I never thought I'd want to see colorized - and yet it works! Does anyone know if Steamboat Bill Jr has had the same treatment?
Thank you for your comment. From quick search I found this for Steamboat: th-cam.com/video/fL320ZXf2Xw/w-d-xo.html
It is not corrected as I do it, but still is good work.
@@DarkGT Thanks for finding that, I'll have a look. Back (some time ago) when I was younger, keener and had time on my hands, I used to put back the tints and tones of silent movies (told you it was some time ago!). I'm damn sure if I had had access to this sort of software I'd be spending hours/days/months doing that instead!
....these days I'll probably just go and put that soundtrack back on..... ;)
@@andrewholliday251 You are motivated fan of the motion pictures I see. If you have PC with good graphics card you can do the same work with software like DeOldify.
@@DarkGT Don't think I haven't found that mini-tutorial!! Cheers

All fantastic, keep up the great work.
So our hero was a southerner, definitely from TEXAS . 👍😁
This looks amazing once again and it seems like a real passion of yours lately (which is good!).
Now if you colourized a Laurel and Hardy or Harold Lloyd movie, you'd really have my attention ;)
Safety Last is something I want to do at some point :)
Huddison - there are lots of colorized Laurel & Hardy 20 min classic shorts available but NONE have the clarity and beauty of this movie.
I would never have believed a movie from 1926 could look this good!
@@DarkGT Safety Last is my favorite!
*Mini tutorial for enthusiast colorizers out there*
This will be long one. The colorization process can be done mostly automated, depending on the quality of the footage you work with.Other that the professional hollywood tools, there are some made made open source for everyone out there. Some like : *Richard Zhan's* - (richzhang.github.io/colorization/) and the one we going to use by *Jason Antic* - (github.com/jantic/DeOldify)
*************
The General" enter the public domain in 1954, after the copyrights wasn't renovated after 28 years. I think is duty for everyone who loves such old classic is to keep them alive in some way or another.
By giving new colors I hope to resurrect it back to life. This is timeless piece of art, "In 1989, The General was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant"
That is also the favorite work of Keaton, he said: "I was more proud of that picture than any I ever made. Because I took an actual happening out of the...history books, and I told the story in detail too."
If you want to see it in better quality you will be able, Cohen Media Group will scan it in better resolution that I ever will be able to improve it: th-cam.com/video/W-8Glmc7_XM/w-d-xo.html
Here is version in black & white (in 4k ) by another youtuber: th-cam.com/video/YWm587wKKVw/w-d-xo.html
***********
The work of colorization can be labor and processing intensive, having a good hardware and a lot of spare time will be good starting point, but if you don't , kind people have made something called a "notebook". That won't be programing tutorial so I will keep it short. Notebooks are ways to make your life easier to run programs written in Python, like having a template where you just add what it said to be added. The great thing about it is that you can run those online, even not necessary to be your hardware. Here it comes the *Google Colab*
Part 1: Preparation before colorization
-Have your video splitted into short parts (I make them 10 min just to avoid something to go wrong or not to waste time if it fails).
-Before colorization clearing and posible restoration. There are some tools that can come handy. I found Film9 (contact41766.wixsite.com/film9/home-1) to be able to perform some good work to remove some dust and lines, it's free. The other thing you can use is
DIAMANT-Film Restoration (paid only) or I found this extension for Premiere - Neat Video (www.neatvideo.com/) pretty neat huh? It have demo version, but is heavy on the CPU so... go along with whatever you got that works for you.
(That step can be done after the colorization too)
- The actual colorization - Go to (colab.research.google.com/github/jantic/DeOldify/blob/master/VideoColorizerColab.ipynb) Be sure to log in with your google account, the use of the site Google Colab is free. Google make it so everyone can use the computing power for training model or similar things. So nice from them! You can use it for max of 12h per session, while you have left the tab of your browser open. To use it follow the instructions in the notebook, to make it operational "run" (press the triangle) of every segment and wait it finish before clicking on the next segment. When you get to "Colorize!!!" step, you have to provide link to your video. It can be from TH-cam, Google Drive or anything supported by TH-cam dll downloader (ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/supportedsites.html). Put your link there. Hit run.
! *Note* before you spend time colorizing, first make experiment with the values of "render_factor!", that was my mistake. Sometimes lower value produce better result on lower quality footage and vice versa for higher.
- Your video will appear at the path that will be written, just from the left click on "Files" and navigate to "result", you got to files - with sound and without. Right click and download it (it won't be instant, please wait on the page).
- Well you maybe got your video colorized, are we done? Not yet, or maybe we are, but not likely. You need to assemble your video parts back into movie and to color correct some mistakes in the AI colorization.
- *Some good video editing products* , if you don't have such, here is what I recommend.
- Adobe Premiere (paid and heavy on resources, with a lot of color corrections is almost impossible to export something without crashing your pc, work with hardware acceleration best on newer GPU's)
- Davinci Resolve - people claim to have better color correction tools, from my little exposure to it, I saw big potencial from this free and paid product. It heavy on low end pc's just as Premiere.
- Filmora - it have free version, it's basic compared to the other two, but it is light and somewhat provide everything you need for your homemade non-professional projects. I had to export the general with it.
The knowledge is to shared, not be keeped in some 300$ textbook. If you have suggestions or something that can be helpful, please share it.

This is truly amazing.
What a great movie. The ending was truly great!
The color version and those B/W versions with sound lose sync after a few minutes... have to continually adjust...
The colorization is better than expected but without music for most of it, it's not a good trade-off.
Wonderful! Had never seen this classic before … special indeed to see it first in a colorized version!
The great film, of a great Rainbow Artist.. Buster Keaton. Tons of salute for his grand performance.
Love it!
Fabulously done ✅
Thanks a lot. Me n my daddy we are fans of Buster Keaton 😃
masterpiece!
You can't even say that special effects are great, because there were no effects - it was real play.
Even without special effect is one heck of special movie. One of the most expensive productions of the times, the people who worked on it gave their best.
"The Pink Panther" in silent movies
As if it were shot just the other day. AI rules.
I was wondering if one day you will attach audio to this, beautiful job by the way
Somebody else have designed audio for this movie, have a listen: th-cam.com/video/d8ntQl055jI/w-d-xo.html
Excellent
That was great. :)
If Jimmy Fallon wasn’t busy with whats left of the “Tonight Show” he could be playing Buster Keaton in a new movie…
See ya Jimmy!
This is pretty damn good movie. Buster Keaton can not be beaten. Now if someone would create sound FXs for this flick.
You're missing the point of a silent film
Hi Dark GT, What's the title of the music (or the name of the composer) that you used instead of the original?. I like it.
Great job, congratulations. If there's one movie that deserved to be colorized, it was this one. Thank you.

I'm big fan of old movies, will you please make color movies of charlie Chaplin. Coz Buster Keaton & Charlie Chaplin both my favorite
Real comedians thumb 👍 up
I love keaton movies.

great work but kinda wish the music was there
Can you colorize the "Elmore 1937" and "Elmore in the early 1960s" videos on the 25 Hayden Gyuras channel?
Gracias,.se pueden poner subtitulos en español?.
Sí puedo, pero no estoy seguro si será exacto.
Yes, but I'm not sure how accurate they will be. I get a lot of spanish comments, where this is shared? Recibo muchos comentarios en español, ¿dónde se comparte?
Amazing work can you do Buster Keaton The High Sign?
Check my playlist.
Amazing Awesome
Great movie
Nice film.
You look at this and a century late, is dull incredible. With CGI, in comparison, even technology only a couple of years old looks embarrassingly bad. Because it is.
If soundtrack is not claimed why would you remove the version with sound? I mean it's such an old film, it's probably already a public domain. I doubt that someone would flag it. I don't think that you'd have any problem with it what so ever
Is not that simple. I won't remove it if wasn't so damn popular. Being public domain doesn't include the soundtrack, which is modern copyright protected work. If I want to monetize it with that sound I have to pay licence or I risk get my channel terminated if the copyright holder decide to manually strike my channel.
I have become so frustrated and dismayed by movie makers over the last 20 years.
Possibly it's just nostalgia on my part but I think there was a time when movies were better. The 90s was the decade of my childhood and it saw the coming of Jurassic Park, Toy Story, some of Disney's best work, even popcorn movies like Independence Day were better then the popcorn movies we have now.
But in recent years it's been slapdash sequels, remakes, revival of old franchises which are designed to pander to fans yet give us nothing of what we want. And if they get backlash from fans, they scramble to create a sequel that backpedals and that just make it more annoying. And as for gender and race bending, it just feels off and you can't say you hate it without fearing you'll be called a bigot. And yet despite everything the big studios seem keep making huge profits.
Something I'd like to do is organise a kind of protest event against Hollywood's dip in quality, IE opening a free movie theatre and showing films like this. Ones that really cared about quality.
The idea would be to strike back at the big studios who put profits over quality by giving people a free and alternate choice to what they offer. And perhaps remind people what real quality is. There are people who have never seen a movie older than 1985!
Also I would use it to protest this runaway PC and social correctness trend that's been going on for decades. I'm no racist but these people are throwing tantrums over anything with a hint of racial, religious or gender bias. They want to ban old cartoons and films like Song of the South. And Hollywood keeps making every group in every TV show and movie as multi ethnic as possible. Imagine how they'd react to a movie where the Confederates are the protagonists.
True words my friend. We live in the years of creative decline, everything made today is mere shadow of what there was back in the days.
You can't harm Hollywood, even the actors can't strike for long, where else can they work? Disney bought every studio out there. The truth is all focused on profits and is not the domestic one, the success sometimes is determined by how well the Chinese audience will like some crappy movie.
I got this movie from the Internet archive web site, plenty of old goodies that are copyright free. If you intend to introduce such classics, try with some kind of traveling theater, project the movies on the wall of the building, no doubt someone will be curious.
We could hurt Hollywood if enough people stopped going to their movies, they only make money if we give it to them. With enough people we could drive the creatively bankrupt to actual bankruptcy. @@DarkGT
p.s. Props MUST be given to Buster's costar/girlfriend. I had the thought ' these two remind me of Fred & Ginger'. Ginger did almost erthang that Fred did, except backwards, in heels & wearing a billowy ballgown. This actress is doing almost erthang that Buster did, except in a billowy dress. WOW! :-D
How do you colorize it? I know theres a github link but i do not know where to go or what to do. i really want to colorize one of my fav vintage train movies. thanks!

This movie is in the public domain now . Can I use this colorized version for commercial use?
Some people have already re-uploaded my videos for to earn revenue from them. I like my work being shared, but I think this free TH-cam format is what this movies deserve -Free, Public, Unrestricted. If you can remaster it yourself, feel free to do whatever the copyright law allows you. Be sure to read the laws and verify first.
@@DarkGT So I can't use it?
@@stealcentral6853 There is nothing preventing you from using it, just read the copyright rules that apply, verify that you will have the rights and nobody can't bother you. For example Charlie Chaplin's work is under the copyright of his decedents, so you can't use it (unless it is from very early on). Disney doesn't like their work to be public domain, so they find loopholes to prevent that. The Frankenstein can't be used as is, because the book doesn't portray the appearance of the monster and only got associated from the movies, thus exception. I highly suggest you get better quality of this Buster Keaton movie, use the latest (paid if possible) tools and do the work yourself, there is much that can be done to improve this movie if more time and proper tools are used. Even if some troll appear, you can say this work is your derivative work and is nothing like the original.
Oh dear... why would anyone want to "Colorize" a perfect creation like "The General"? It's like using a Sharpie to put a moustache on the Mona Lisa. BTW, they had Technocolor in 1927... if they wanted it in color, they would have shot it that way in the first place.
Well, don't let me near the Mona, because I will draw a wonderful mustache!
funny part is that the Texas was found in someones basement
Dark GT how do you get thre version with the music in it??
There is another version in TH-cam. Just search for the same title colorized. Or you can open the black and white version in another tab and play it at the same time.
Фильм сделали цветным, а музыкальную дорожку потеряли. Надо было мохранить старую озвучку пианино.
Какую такую старую? Немые фильмы не имеют звуковой дорожки, на то они и немые, обычно на показах музыкальное сопровождение обеспечивал тапер или целый оркестр. Для фильма написан целый ряд современных музыкальных звуковых дорожек, как фортепианных, так и оркестровых.
Güzel bir film. Bu adamın sırrını çözemedim Bi türlü. O dönemde filmlerindeki aksiyonları nasıl yapıyor anlamış değilim.
You need to watch this: th-cam.com/video/-qB-lZZhubM/w-d-xo.html
Is all clever ways to manipulate camera angles and to do stunts perfectly. He is Jackie Chan of his era.
Can't get the sound working🤣
Watch it in bw as it was made, to capture all the textures & shades & that's just Buster's face. This is a insult to his work.
Okay. Sorry for insulting the great stone face and making new audience heard for first time about his great work, even that I "ruing" it with color.
THE END
Hi
Legit
How do I get the sound to play?
No real cinephile will watch a colourized classic!
Their loss.
Like who seen this in 2020
👍😀
good yob
Public service...
I was enjoying it w/ sound exactly 24 hours. I saved it in watch later suddenly you took it off reload itvw/o sounds. And now you are giving knowledge how to use separate tabs for it. It doesn't work on Android. 👎👎👎👎👎
Sorry, I do it so it will stay for the future viewers.
@@DarkGT earlier I was upset forcing to watch on the General w/o sounds but anyhow I thoroughly enjoyed it not only that but the other colorized movies of the greatest Buster movies from your playlist comeon it's almost a century old cinema with no extravagant sound vfx aids it's pure exhilarating experience. You made my weekend gonna watch all movies throught the weekend and even beyond. OK could you colorize the classic movies like where two rail lines meet across the country I dunno the name.
Can someone colourise The Butcher boy?

😆😂🤣😅
Why would you do that to a wonderful film. Shame on you.
Sorry to hurt your feelings. I didn't intend to ruing it, but to reborn the interest and give it new light.
This is ridiculous. This is a classic black and white film. Colorizing ruins it. The original version with the proper music is readily available on You Tube.
It doesn't ruin anything, come on. It just is an interesting thing to see a silent film with colour
Roberta Gregory - Rubbish! Colour adds more beauty to it.
If you don't like it, don't watch it.
Roberta Gregory - Roberta, please look at it again, it is wonderful! I feel sure Buster Keaton would be thrilled to see it looking so good.
@Roberta Gregory Wet sprocket. GFY.
