A pleasant trip around the Sacramento Valley Live Steamers track during their 2012 Spring Meet. We are pulled by a OS Baldwin Mogul coal burning steam engine.
Great video. I had to share it on my facebook for the train lovers. I git a u-boat.

Something like a bird whistle. the valve was on the cab floor, with a trap below leading to the whistle. Water would collect in the pipe from the boiler to the valve, then be blown into the trap to gurgilate when I pushed the lever!

We test our stark arrestor designs in the dark, and found that adding a solid plate on the top really helped the effectiveness. This stops the forced embers in the exhaust from being pushed thru the 1/8" metal mesh.

When I join this club, I'm gonna drive either a 4-8-4 Northern, a 4-6-4 Hudson, a Pacific Type 4-6-2, a Mountain Type 4-8-2, a Berkshire 2-8-4, or a 2-8-2 Mikado.

It sounded horrible until the valve was replaced. Much better now! :-)

No, it was done off the plans for the Ken Schroeder Shay with the pull reversed to fit under the cab roof.
