Join me at the Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, Pennsylvania for an incredible full rail museum experience featuring some of the most iconic steam locomotives in American history.
This video captures a full immersive walkthrough of Big Boy 4014 and Big Boy 4012, including close-up footage, cab access, and exterior views during a rare public display. This is one of the most powerful steam locomotive experiences in the United States.
Inside the Steamtown rail museum, we explore multiple historic locomotives and restoration exhibits from across different railroads. This includes major preserved equipment such as Boston & Maine 5713, currently under restoration, along with many other steam and diesel locomotives inside the rail house.
You will also see rare locomotives from multiple railroads including Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, Nickel Plate Road, Canadian Pacific, New Haven, and more.
Special moments include discussions with rail staff, including engineer Ed Dickens, along with machinist insights and public Q&A throughout the event.
This is a full real-time railfan experience documenting American railroad history, preservation, and restoration.
