Wow Adam, I finally watched this front-to-back, some parts many times. Great opening shots, thankfully in cool lighting that really set the mood. The shots at Cherry Hill and Long Curve were immaculate, in fact, I think you should repost those two clips as a QuickClip video because they deserve additional praise. Again, I know where I want to go now! I really did a bad job at waking up and driving down there to see this, and now I regret it. I don't think I could top this, great job.

A great vid, a lot different than the "runby" types. This vid is especially great for those of us old enough to remember when steam actually worked day by day freight moves. The run at 21:28 where the whistle can barely be heard above the stack talk reminds me of one of my favorite railfan experiences years ago.on the "Q" trips out of Chicago in the 60s with the 4-8-4 5632 that had excessivly loud exhaust. Again, thanks for your patience to spend a long day waiting for those right moments.

It's kind of humbling to see a machine of this magnitude being serviced just like it was 100 years ago in the 21st century. Thanks anyway though.

The Norfolk & Western 4-8-0 Baldwins, Class M2, implemented lessons learned from earlier designs as far back as Central Pacific #229, built at Sacramento, CA, USA, and later replicated to twenty copies by Cooke-Danforth on the East Coast. The M2's, all packing superheaters, piston valves and Walschaerts drive, were fantastic for short-haul duty, as the weight on drivers permitted better acceleration than the better-breathing 4-8-2's and 4-8-4's used for interstate duty. The Pennsylvania developed a class of 4-6-0's at Altoona for commuter trains for the same reason. Time 9:35 Here, the payload is a Union Pacific - Omaha Road (CMO) hopper. The Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha became UP property via the Chicago & Northwestern.

the camera shutter bothered me, it kinda interrupted the best parts. Probably because those were the really good shots though. I get it, totally would do the same thing. No worries though, the visual quality of the video and the fact that they're steam freights made up for it. As for the slow beginning, I felt it was okay because of the sunrise and there was a haze from the engine that looked cool. If it was middle of the day and wasn't in hd I'd might complain, but this was fine.
