Absolutely beautiful and majestic old locomotive. That coupling was text book smooth.

If you weren’t looking right at it I doubt you notice anything had even happened. It’s just that smooth. The engineer definitely knew what he was doing.

My wife and I went there in the late 90s or so, had a great time. A double header took us up to Eagle Mountain on a bunch of switch-backs. The sounds of those engines and heady aroma of coal-fired smoke took us back to the early 1900s. If you get a chance, you NEED to go there! Cheers, Bob

There are actually quite a few geared locomotives running around West Virginia. Also I think the Illinois railroad museum has on as well.

I went to Cass many years ago and I really want to go back😊😊. When I was there the engineer did a great job on the switch backs , very smooth.

Este ruido y transporte me regresan a mi juventud cuando disfruté muchísimos viajes en el Tren de Cali a Popayán (Colombia) con mi grupo musical "Los Caribes" en el Coche de Restaurante. Ahora tengo 82 años y quisiera volver a repetir ese emocionante viaje.. !!!

Great coupling, yes, but the fireman clearly needs a refresher course in air control, and isn't rolling through an unprotected crossing without bell & whistle a firing offence on most roads?

I did wonder about there being no bell or whistle. As far as the fire goes, I had heard that a lot of tourist roads will deliberately do this for photo ops.

I have heard that most of our modern idea of billowing black smoke is actually false. It’s mostly just done from either inexperience or purposefully showing off for photo ops. Most steam engines back in the age of steam ran (fairly) clean.
