It's bitter sweet watching videos like this. I live not far from Cumberland, MD and Ridgeley, WV where the rail yard is. 734 is sitting there rusting in the elements.
2:00. I've never seen that in my life and I've been obsessed with steam locos for 29 years (my age). I've watched thousands of hours of footage and spent thousands of hours riding behind and photographing steam. I have my own miniature loco that I drive but I've never seen the steam coming out of different sides of the funnel depending on which cylinder it came out of. I've never spotted 734 doing it before either. Weird.
4:03 this shot gives me goosebumps. Its a sight seeing 734 emerge from the forest, surrounded by a plume of smoke with the whistle blaring for the crossing and the headlight gleaming
I partook in the Trains magazine photocharter a few weekends ago and we shot at the new spot known as Gardners meadow where the landslide was in 2016. I was curious what it looked like prior as they told us it was all woods. Ive been also watching your videos again lately to plan for my chases later in the year, and i came across this video. And after watching this video, i see you shot the spot back then! It is right at 2:48. I used the green bridge as a reference as i remembered seeing it on the charter! Hope to bump into you at the valley or Western Maryland this year!
Excellent video , Beautifully Done , A # 1 WMS video on TH-cam I have seen, In cluding What I have done too. I see that 734 blew out a cyender packing in two scenes. Len.
.... shoving the caboose seems to be ok if the caboose has a steel frame......you should be able to see many examples on videos, such as PRR Horseshoe Curve ...........
There is a Hancock back on her now, or at least at the end of this season. The bad sounding whistle was, I think, used on the Western Maryland 4-8-4's. They did not take the other whistle, which was the Hancock you hear in the video, off on purpose. I'm told the person who owned it wanted it back. Again, I've been following WMSRR for years, this is the best video I've ever seen of the old girl! Well Done, dferg!
@@chendersonrailproductions704 what videos explain where it came from and what type of whistle it is? Ik it's a Hancock Long Bell 3 Chime but I'd like to know if it's of Western Maryland Heritage.
then get there this year or next, because 734 is due for a rebiuld soon, within the next 2 years, i am going this year(2012) or next year, to catch 734 one more time before her rebiuld
LS6Z28 Diesel Locomotives cut the insurance costs because of air and dynamic brakes, if they run on any main line they have electronics to communicate back to track surveillance center so a runaway is not reported as well as providing power for lights and climate control.

1:35 That 2nd GP30 was like "Look! I can be a steam engine too!"
Loved 734 hope it returns to service soon.
734 really put on a good show

That locomotive has the greatest stack talk I’ve ever heard
Looks like the turbo on the trailing diesel is shot at around 1:30. Or else she's seriously in need of injector work.

6:52 it came to Frostburg
Superbly shot video, stunning countryside, and a sheer joy to watch, thanks very much...5* Bob
Awesome railfan video 5*****
And also, what is the deal with the geeps shoving on the caboose, I have always heard that it was against operating rules on any railroad.

What kind of whistle is 734 wearing?
I think it's a Southern Long-bell 3 Chime whistle or a Hancock 3 Chime whistle
@@SuperFoxyRailwayProduction6702 Southern longbells sound nowhere near this. This is a confirmed Longbell Hancock, But it's not Southern.

The whistle you were speaking about was put back on in 2012-2013 for a photo charter. There is a few on TH-cam confirming where it came from.

Wonder if this is the whistle that is now on 1309?

man you must have had fun doing this
Have relatives in area miss it
It’s a nice locomotive but it’s wheels are too small.
That doesn't stop her though
@@EngineerDaylight Now that’s what I call perseverance.
Great steamer she is
0:16-9:08 1.25x-2x speed
