This is a channel where I post videos of the things and hobbies I indulge in. You won't see any videos with people epically failing a skateboarding or other such things. I am just here to show the world what it is I do with my spare time.
Canadian Pacific "Empress" #2816 & Sunset Limited - Belaire, Texas 5/25/24
This is a short clip. We were unable to keep up with 2816 due to scarce location information. This is a no horn zone, so she didn't blow her whistle. Before that the Sunset Limited rolled right on through there.

The NEW San Antonio Zoo Train - 9/17/2021
Переглядів 9 тис.5 місяців тому
Back in 2021, I had the opportunity to film the unloading and first runs of the C.W.T. Express, AKA the NEW San Antonio Zoo train. I also caught a few shots of one of the now nonoperational C.P. Huntington trains. I was given permission to film here, so don't assume you will be given the same privilege. A few months later I would begin working for the zoo for about a year and a half, including ...
84HP Corvair Engine - Will It Run?
Переглядів 40610 місяців тому
We're doing a quick test of an 84HP Corvair engine that we received for free doing some work. It had one cylinder that was down to 30 PSI on a dry leakdown test, while most of the others were well above 100 PSI. With some oil it came up a lot. After doing a test run, it looks like it runs just fine. What a relief! We believe the smoke coming from the engine is from the Marvel Mystery Oil we use...

Fiesta Texas Railroad
Переглядів 1,1 тис.2 роки тому
This was shot during Holiday in the Park at Six Flag Fiesta Texas. I'm the engineer in most of this video. You get to see a little bit of what we do in the mornings while prepping the train. Since I'm not allowed to use a phone while I'm operating, I had my little brother record from outside the station while he was visiting. Just a quick Disclaimer: I do not represent Six Flags in any way, nor...

Steam Day - Texas Transportation Museum
Переглядів 9003 роки тому
It was the steam day at the Texas Transportation museum. The little engine is pretty peppy, although it has a valve timing problem. After that day they took it down to do some annual work and inspections on it, so hopefully it'll be running better than ever soon.

Some video we shot from the Texas Cotton Gin Festival in Burton, Texas. It was a fun day, and there was a great turnout. I recommend anyone who likes old engines, or just historic building check this place out. Look up the Texas Cotton Gin Museum.

Bessemer Engine & The Burton Cotton Gin
Переглядів 1,2 тис.3 роки тому
I finally found some of the clips I shot at last year's Burton Cotton Gin festival. Perfect timing since it's only a month until the show. This is supposedly the large and most complete original cotton gin in the United States. They're running a rare twin cylinder Type IV Bessemer engine running in its original configuration. She was built in 1925 to replace the original steam engine that ran t...
Cushman 4HP Model C Engine - First Start - A Hop, A Skip & A Jump
Переглядів 8133 роки тому
This was the first start of the Cushman 4HP Model C "Cornbinder" farm engine. It's a throttle governed engine, not a hit and miss. She was a little jumpy. LOL. It died almost immediately after the video ended, so don't worry about anyone getting hurt.
Chasing World's Largest Operating Steam Locomotive in Texas - Big Boy 4014
Переглядів 5414 роки тому
This video was shot November 10th, 2019 between the towns of Pinehurst, Magnolia, and Navasota, Texas. We chased Union Pacific's living legend, Big Boy #4014. The UP, Ed Dickens and the rest of the steam crew really put on a show for us.

This is a complete dump of all the footage I shot of the show field at the Texas Early Day Tractor, Engine & Truck Show. It was a blast. We brought our 1957 Ford Fairlane Skyliner and 1962 Chevrolet Corvair Monza. Unfortunately, I forgot to shoot footage of my display.

2015 TEDTEA Tractor & Engine Show - WARNING LOUD!
I have been on that train many times and Christmas and I also remember the western gun fight and one or two times they gave me the casings from a bullet
This im pretty sure was the original whistle fitted to the LNER A4's
It's like the people are freight now.
Bunyiin di Depan stasiun saat jam sepi Kereta nanti dijamin PPKA juru langsir bakal panik
Jeez that is HIDEOUS! At least it looks like a locomotive, though, unlike that ... thing ... that's now running in Zilker Park in Austin again.
That's a Cummins diesel, isn't it? Will the park ever bring back Gretta? I miss its unique whistle!
I believe it is. More specifically a 5.9L 12 valve. They keep talking about bringing Gretta back, but stuff keeps getting in the way. I think they have most of the parts to get her going, but the train currently in service is keeping maintenance's hands full.
Knew it! Haha! Thank you. One time in 2019 or 2021, crews placed a small engine generator on top of the “drive car”. I can understand that ol’ 5.9L is doing its best!
@@chasem8491 Generally any kind of generator is not for actually powering anything on the train. The train is actually just a standard automotive 12v system using the diesel's alternator. Any generator is usually for Christmas lights or other ornaments and effects like smoke machines during Fright Fest.
@@railsrust Ah just kidding. Thanks for clarifying! Was it true there was one point in time where crews tried to convert Gretta to run vegetable oil?
@@Chasem7981 That's actually why she isn't running. From one of the older engineers, he said that they tried to convert Kitty over and blew up the motor. They just stole Gretta's tender with working engine to keep Kitty running.
WHY did they have to upgrade it, STUPID SA
This is so wrong
So it now takes three P42s to pull one sleeper and one coach these days? The sunset limited is on super borrowed time...
We just need a better schedule. How is it 6 hours to both San Antonio and New Orleans?
No whistle?!?!?
Dang quiet zone!
the guy in the white shirt by the crossing his reaction when they dont whistle

What a beauty!
The Train is coming!!!
It's Just Like CC201, CC203, & CC204 Locomotive, Dude

Horns that are often used in GEU18C/GEU20C locomotives in Indonesia
I would love to use that while driving, especially during the rush-hour commute😅
Everyone saying its ugly paint job but it has to be high visibility for good reasons. Someone trys to sue after being a dumbarse and getting hit by it the insurance companies will say "seriously you didn't hear the bells, whistles, engine, and didn't see the psychedelic collors"
Unfortunately they will still try for the sake of suing
Now they need a horse jokey engineer
This is great! I love the paint job on that locomotive. It looks like a regular SD-40-2 or something or a GP-38.
Awesome little machine, I would love to retrofit an a/c unit on that thing!! If I had my own..
I agree with you! I would too for the summer months! Also a heater for the winter months if possible.
Change one of those bells. Shouldn't be going 'BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRING!' like a fire alarm!
That's the crossing bell duffas
Better that that abomination of a steam outline locomotive….
This railway has since retired this steam locomotive, and it’s now at Kirby Family Farm.
Bring back the traditional steam design locomotive, please. Don't like this new Goofy one.😮
Breckenridge Eagle, that is the previous title. My children and I have gone for rides on this wonderful train. 😅
Too fat to fit in the cab, too fat to operate it.
Fantastic Geep. Hideous paint scheme! Not sure who put those colors together but it ain’t pretty. I’ve had the privilege of riding that amazing railroad a couple of times when visiting San Antonio. Beautiful park and a huge layout. Please put a more realistic, and less garish, paint scheme on it. Maybe an SP or Santa Fe scheme. Either way, keep up the good work. You have an amazing railroad there!
No horn!!!???
There's a pair of loud horns at the top of the locomotive.
If you watched latter in the video you would hear it
If you actually watch the video instead of just commenting on the thumbnail, you might actually see and hear those big shiny chrome things on the cab roof.
Wow… I would love to cruise around in a mini EMD GP40-2
If you think this zoo has a lot of incompetence, look at the Forest Park Miniature Railroad. Only opened late last year and it's now down again because of maintenance issues. And while the CPH units were fun, engineers will most likely enjoy the enclosed cab now. Thankfully my zoo is still operating CPH units; there have been talks of switching to electric but I don't like those as much due to the fact that they are not equipped with real whistles/horns.
