West Chester 7706: An Afternoon in Chester County Train Chamber 2023-06-13 | Nestled within the town of West Chester, PA lies a relatively modest tourist railroad, the West Chester Railroad. The normal summer operation consists of 90-minute trips that span about 7 miles, running from West Chester to Glen Mills and return. This video documents the day-in operations with 7706, an EMD GP-38 built in 1969.The West Chester Railroad traces its roots to the mighty PRR, being located on the railroad's Frazer and Media Branches. Market Street Station served the town until its demolition by Penn Central in 1968, with the line seeing light passenger use by SEPTA until 1986. For the following decade, the line sat abandoned, until a group of rail enthusiasts reinvigorated it. Since then, the mainly volunteer-based railroad has ran excursions to the grove in Glen Mills.Locations:0:00 A Duie Pile0:41 Dilworthtown 1:25 Locksley1:56 Glen Mills, PA3:02 Cheney3:45 Adam Street Yard4:32 Market Street StationAshton Krug (Ashton Krug)Filmed on June 4th, 2023______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2023All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or redistributed without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

East Broad Top 16: The EBT Goes to War Train Chamber 2023-05-15 | History comes alive when the EBT Goes to War! In May of 2023, the East Broad Top Railroad Hosted their annual "EBT Goes to War - Living History Event." The event included various displays and demonstrations of military memorabilia from three eras, the Civil War, the Great War, and World War II. Alongside this, the railroad ran steam powered excursions with recently-restored steam locomotive 16. The East Broad Top Railroad was constructed in between 1872 and 1874 with the purpose of hauling iron ore from the furnaces in Rockhill to the Pennsylvania Railroad interchange in Mount Union. As time progressed the focus of the railroad shifted from pig iron production to coal hauling, as the railroad began to service the numerous mines on Broad Top Mountain. The EBT faithfully served these industries for nearly 80 years. Going into the 1950s, coal fell out of favor for gas and oil, leading to the Ol' Eastie's demise, with official closure occurring in 1956. The railroad was purchased by the Kovalchick Salvage Company, but rather than opting to scrap the line, it was made into a tourist attraction. The attraction was extremely popular, running strong for over 50 years, but by 2011, insurance costs resulted in the closure of the line. With an uncertain future, the railroad sat dormant until 2020, when it was purchased by East Broad Top Foundation with the goal of restoring the railroad to its former glory. Being perfectly frozen in time, the East Broad Top remains as a truly special time capsule, preserving a little bit of Americana. East Broad Top 16 was built in 1916 but the Baldwin Locomotive works and is the first of the "large" 2-8-2 mikados delivered to the EBT. Being equipped with superheaters, piston valves, and southern valve gear, 16 outperformed her earlier counterparts. She served the railroad faithfully up until the end in 1956, being in the middle of an overhaul during its closure. During the tourist era, 16 was evaluated for restoration, but due to her boiler paperwork being destroyed, 14 was ultimately chosen. Fast forward to 2020, 16 was selected for restoration as it was in the best condition of all the other mikados, with work beginning in 2021. On February 1st, 2023, the restoration was complete, with 16 running her own power for the first time in 67 years, marking the beginning of a new era on the EBT.Locations:0:00 Rockhill, PA1:53 Enyart2:40 McMullin's Summit3:22 The Long Fill7:01 Horne's Cut7:44 McMullin's Summit8:42 Rockhill, PA11:08 Rockhill StationFilmed on May 13th & 14th, 2023______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2023All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or redistributed without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Durango & Silverton: Diesels in Durango Train Chamber 2023-03-03 | While the Durango & Silverton is most well known for their steam powered operations, the railroad offers train rides behind their set of newly purchased diesel-electric locomotives. Traveling the iconic 45.2 mile journey up through the beautiful Animas River Valley, these ex WP&Y diesels have made the D&S their new home. Durango & Silverton 103 was built in May 1969 by the Montreal Locomotive Works (ALCo-MLW) and is classified as a DL-535E locomotive. 103 served the White Pass & Yukon Route from 1969 to 1992, when she was purchased by Sociedad Colombiana de Transport Ferroviaro. In 1999, 103 returned to the WP&Y, being tasked with providing motive power to the tourist trains there. She served the railroad well until May 2021, when she along with sisters 101, 106, & 107, were purchased and shipped to the Durango & Silverton.

Reading & Northern 425: The Christmas Rambles Finale Train Chamber 2022-12-23 | As the end of 2022 draws near, so does the end of a wonderful era in steam railroading. The Christmas 2022 season marked the last runs of the Reading & Northerns elegant steam locomotive, #425. With work completed on the locomotive 15 years ago, her FRA mandated 1472 boiler inspection and rebuild is due to take place after the season. The locomotive may be out for a number of years, or it may be back fairly quickly, only time can tell. What is for certain is that the 425's last runs were nothing short of spectacular, as she ended these past 15 years with a bang. This video documents her grand finale, as she leads the R&N's Christmas Trains out of Tamaqua and Reading, PA. The whistles on 425 in this video are a Nathan 3 Chime, a Southern 3 chime, and a Replica Reading 6 Chime.Reading & Northern #425 is a 4-6-2 pacific type steam locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive works in 1928 for the Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad. She is the first of two G-1 Type locomotives for the GM&N (425 and later scrapped 426). When the locomotives went to the GM&O, they became 580 (425), and 582 (426). After her time there, 425 was owned by several other railroads, including the Louisiana & Eastern, Valley Forge Scenic Railway, Wilmington & Western, and the Blue Mountain & Reading where she ran alongside 2102. The BM&R became RBM&N (R&N for short) in 1990, after the acquisition of 150 miles of track due to the bankruptcy of Conrail. In 1992, 425 was painted into her famous Blue Paint Scheme inspired by Reading Bluebird. From 1996 to 2007 the famed locomotive sat dormant, but by 2008, she returned to regular passenger service. In 2011, 425 was given roller bearings by the Strasburg Railroad, and in 2015, painted to her current blue, a GM&N "Road of Service" inspired paint scheme, completing the look she wears today.Special Thanks:Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern RailroadReading & Northern Passenger DepartmentThe Crews of RBM&N 425Andy MullerRBM&N Passenger Department:rbmnrr-passenger.com Locations:0:00 North Reading, PA1:51 Cross Keys2:36 Leesport2:51 Milepost 713:28 Perry Straight4:06 Hamburg4:58 Port Clinton6:25 Milepost 877:13 New Ringgold Bridge8:00 Reynolds8:30 Zehners9:04 Tamaqua10:17 Tuscarora Park Road11:31 Tamaqua Tunnel12:22 East Mahanoy Junction13:00 Milepost 10414:07 Haucks15:07 Nighttime at Port ClintonFilmed on December 3rd, 4th, 17th, and 18th, 2022.______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2022All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or redistributed without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Canadian National 89: Powering the Half-hour Train Train Chamber 2022-11-25 | On a breezy Autumn afternoon, the Strasburg Railroad operated their very own Canadian National 89, a 2-6-0 Mogul steam locomotive. Departing on the half hour in between the railroad's regularly scheduled hourly trips, the modest locomotive made light work of the 4 car train. The whistle on 89 is a Pennsylvania Railroad 3 Chime. Canadian National 89 is a 2-6-0 Mogul, classified as an E-10-a by the CN. She was built in February 1910 by the Canadian Locomotive Company for the Grand Trunk Railway as number 1009 and by 1919 it was renumbered to 911. In 1923, the Grand Trunk was merged into part of the Canadian National Railway (CN) with 911 being one of many locomotives involved in the merger. In 1951, 911 was renumbered to 89. In 1965, she was sold to the Green Mountain Railroad and was then sold in 1972 to the Strasburg Railroad, where she operates today.Special Thanks:Strasburg RailroadThe Crew of CNR 475Locations0:00 Carpenters1:02 Fairview1:46 East StrasburgFilmed on October 8th, 2022.______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2022All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or redistributed without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Western Maryland 1309: Fireball Freight Service Train Chamber 2022-11-09 | Maryland Thunder, as she's called, is the affectionate nickname for the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad's very own 1309. On the first weekend of November 2022, the Trains Magazine hosted a photo charter featuring the famed locomotive with eight hoppers and a caboose in tow. For the first time since the retirement of beloved locomotive 734, steam photo freights were documented at historic locations on the 16 mile route to Frostburg. Western Maryland 1309 is a 2-6-6-2 articulated mallet locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works 1949 and is the last steam locomotive constructed by the once mighty builder. Delivered to the Chesapeake & Ohio in the same year, 1309 was immediately pressed into service, pulling long and heavy coal trains up the gruesome mountain grades of West Virginia and Kentucky. After a mere 7 years, 1309 was retired in 1956 being stored until 1972, when she was acquired by the B&O Railroad Museum. In 2014, the WMSR acquired the 1309, but she wouldn't run until New Years Eve 2020, moving under her own power for the first time in 64 years. The project faced numerous setbacks and funding issues, but by the end of 2021, the locomotive was deemed well enough to pull revenue trains. In memory of Jim Wrinn, editor of Trains Magazine of 17 years and avid rail preservationist.

Reading & Northern 2102: Early Autumn on the Anthracite Road Train Chamber 2022-10-30 | In Autumn 2022, the Reading & Northern's famous Fall Foliage excursions were headed by T-1 2102 for the very first time. The boisterous locomotive filled the skies with thick black smoke, blowing leaves and branches off the trees as she made her way to Jim Thorpe. The locomotive was sporting her original Reading Hooter and her famous Reading 6 Chime. Due to a mechanical issue with her firing table, the 2102 was taken off the head end of the train on October 8th, leading to only one shot from that day being included in this video. The Reading 2102 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1923, originally designated as an I-10sa class 2-8-0, 2044. By 1945, the Reading's growing demand for more powerful locomotives was answered, the locomotive was rebuilt into a T-1 class 4-8-4 in their very own shops. The T-1s performed beautifully, hauling coal trains across miles of track and up steep mount grades. This tenure eventually came to an end in 1956, when the Reading ended steam operation. The future was bleak, as 2102 became a steam generator for a steel plant. However, on April 29th, 1962, the locomotive exited an extensive restoration, pulling the Iron Horse Rambles along sister T-1 locomotives. By 1965, the Rambles ended, and 2102 was sold off. Again, she would not sit idle for long, as she ran all across the Northeast. In 1985, 2102 was sold to Andy Muller, owner of the up and coming Blue Mountain & Reading Railroad. 2102 ran for another six years, making her final run on October 27, 1991. While she was moved around here and there, the locomotive sat dormant until January 2016, when it was announced the locomotive would undergo restoration in the Reading, Blue Mountain, and Northern's steam shops. After six years, the locomotive is once again riding the rails of the steel road.

Norfolk & Western 475: Early Autumn Steam on the Road to Paradise Train Chamber 2022-10-14 | After the shambled fall foliage trip with Reading T-1 2102, we had to turn plan B - the Strasburg Railroad. On a chilly autumn afternoon, we documented Norfolk & Western M-1 475 pulling the railroad's daily tourist trains. The over 100 year old locomotive performed flawlessly, working up the grades of America's oldest operating railroad. The whistle on 475 in this video is a Southern Pacific 6 Chime. Norfolk & Western 475 is a 4-8-0 "Mastodon" (M Class) type steam locomotive built in 1906 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works. Locomotive 475 was in the original order of M Class steam locomotives by the N&W, where she would go on to haul heavy freight and coal trains. Eventually replaced by the N&W's larger engines, 475 found work on branch lines, such as the Virginia Creeper out of Abingdon VA. 475 ran for 50 consecutive years before being retired in 1956 and with an uncertain future, change hands until she wound up at a scrapyard. She was saved from scrap in 1980 and would change hands multiple time again, until eventually winding up at the Strasburg Railroad in 1991. She was restored by 1993 and has been operating ever since.Special Thanks:Strasburg RailroadThe Crew of N&W 475Locations:0:00 Fairview0:55 Carpenters3:54 Esbenshade4:37 East Strasburg, PA5:24 EsbenshadeFilmed on October 8th, 2022______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2022All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or redistributed without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Pennsylvania Railroad 643: Summer Steam in the Grove Train Chamber 2022-09-19 | In between railroads, we made a quick pitstop at the Williams Grove Historic Steam Engine Association to see Pennsylvania Railroad 643. The grounds serve as home to tractors and steam machines alike, as well as a short railroad to accompany the 643. The modest switcher stands against the test of time and is the only operating steam locomotive from the once mighty Pennsylvania Railroad. The whistle on 643 is a replica PRR 3 Chime.Pennsylvania Railroad 643 is an 0-6-0 B4a built in 1901 by the railroad's own Juniata Shops. After her 16-year career on the PRR, 643 was sold to the Central Iron and Steel Company in Harrisburg, PA. Over the next 40 years, she would undergo numerous modifications, including getting a larger, slope-back tender and replacement boiler. The H.K. Porter built boiler replaced the PRR's iconic Belpaire and is believed to be larger than the original boiler. In 1961, 643 was purchased by the Williams Grove Historic Steam Engine Association, which she has called home ever since.Support William's Grove here: wgrailroad.wordpress.comFilmed on September 2nd, 2022. ______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2022All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or redistributed without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Reading & Northern 2102: Thunder on The Road of Anthracite - Iron Horse Rambles Train Chamber 2022-09-05 | The year 2022 marked the return of the Reading Iron Horse Rambles, headed by Reading T-1 2102. Throughout the summer, the thunderous locomotives attracted vast crowds pulling sold out trips from Reading to Jim Thorpe and return. The flashy 4-8-4 rambled through Pennsylvania's Anthracite Region, with the sound of its stack talk echoing around mountains and valleys, effortlessly taking the title of the loudest steam locomotive in the United States.

Durango & Silverton 482: The Cascade Canyon Clipper Train Chamber 2022-08-29 | The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad was voted as America's #1 Train Ride in 2022, justified by the wonderful and wild scenery of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. While the railroad's claim to fame is "The Silverton," another great way to view the scenery is on the "Cascade Express." The trip runs from Durango to Cascade and back, only taking up about half the day. In early August 2022, these trips were pulled by K-36 482, working up through the Animas Canyon for photographers and tourists alike to enjoy. The unique whistle on 482 in this video is a custom built N&W experimental 3 chime. The Durango & Silverton's history reaches far back into the 19th century, with the arrival of the Denver & Rio Grande Western in 1881. Within less than a year, the railroad replaced the Old Animas Toll Road to the mining town of Silverton. The Silverton Branch, as it was known, was prosperous until the panic of 1893. The future looked grim into the 1940s, but the rise domestic tourism in the US proved the branch was still a lucrative operation. The D&RGW kept the branch active until they sold the line to Charles Bradshaw in 1979, turning it into the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. In 2018, the railroad faced difficulties with wildfires and mudslides, resulting in the majority of their fleet being converted from coal to oil firing. The motive power in this video is K-36 482, built in 1925 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works. 482 served the Denver & Rio Grande Western from her delivery until her retirement in 1962. She sat idle at the Cumbres & Toltec from 1970 until 1991, when the Durango & Silverton traded her for K-37 497. 482 underwent major rebuilds and returned to service in May 1992. In December 2021, she was converted from coal to oil firing.

Cumbres & Toltec 489: The Cumbres Turn Train Chamber 2022-08-22 | Every Friday in July, 2022, the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad ran an extra train, running from Chama to Cumbres Pass and return. Denoted by the white flags, this extra afternoon jaunt offered passengers views of the beautiful Chama Valley without having to spend the whole day on the train. For the last of these trips, C&TS K-36 489 pulled 5 cars up the grueling 4% grade. With aforementioned shortened train, 489 made easy work of its task, showcasing a great display of steam power in the Colorado Rockies. Also in this video, is riding footage of 489 pulling the regular scheduled train up to Cumbres Pass. The roots of the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad can be traced back to the Denver & Rio Grande, with the construction of the San Juan Extension in 1880. Passenger and mail service, logging, mining, and the discovery natural gas caused the railroad to boom from its creation all the way into the 1960s. In 1968, the D&RGW filed for abandonment, but shortly thereafter, the states of Colorado and New Mexico stepped in to preserve 64 miles of the 4th Division between Chama and Antonito. To this day, the tourist attraction is the best preserved portion of the D&RGW narrow gauge with all original structures and the largest collection of narrow gauge rolling stock and locomotives. The motive power in this video is Cumbres & Toltec 489, a 2-8-2 K-36 class Mikado built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1925. It was retired by the D&RGW in 1962, 489 was delivered to the C&TS in 1970 and returned to excursion service in 1974. In December 2020, 489 underwent a conversion from coal firing to oil firing.

Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad: Storming Up Cumbres Pass Train Chamber 2022-08-08 | The Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad is one of America's finest tourist railroads. The 64-mile route preserves part of the old Denver & Rio Grande Western 4th Division, boasting the title of the highest and longest narrow gauge railroad in the United States. In July 2022, we traveled out West to document the railroad's daily operations between Chama, NM and Los Piños CO. Each day, Cumbres & Toltec 484 tackled the grueling 4% grade out of Chama, creating deafening stack talk as she snakes her way through the valley to Cumbres Pass and beyond. The roots of the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad can be traced back to the Denver & Rio Grande, with the construction of the San Juan Extension in 1880. Passenger and mail service, logging, mining, and the discovery natural gas caused the railroad to boom from its creation all the way into the 1960s.

Great Smoky Mountains Railroad 1702: Nantahala Express Train Chamber 2022-07-21 | One year ago today, Great Smoky Mountains Railroad 1702 worked her way up through the Nantahala Gorge and we were there to document the operation. The Pride of Bryson City ran along the Southern Railway's Murphy Branch, hauling 19 cars up its steep mountain grades. Watch along as 1702 crosses bridges and parallels rivers all the way to Nantahala, North Carolina. Great Smoky Mountains Railroad 1702 is a USATC (United States Army Transportation Corps.) S-160 class consolidation steam locomotive. The stocky 2-8-0 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1942 and intended for export to Europe during the Second World War. Although this was not the case, as 1702 never went overseas, eventually being pressed into service at the Fort Bragg Military Base. She faithfully served the United States until 1961, when she was retired. In 1964, 1702 was sold to the Reader Railroad in Arkansas, where she underwent many cosmetic upgrades, operating until 1972, pulling the last regularly-scheduled mixed train in the US before being put into storage. 1702 would have a stint of operating time at the Fremont & Elkhorn Valley Railroad from 1986 to 1991, when she was purchased by the GSMR. She ran from 1991 to 2004, when she was again put into storage until her most recent restoration, which was from 2012 to 2016. 1702 has been operational since then, pulling both the Tuckasegee River and Nantahala Gorge excursions.

Black River & Western 60: The Hunterdon Flyer - Railfest 2022 Train Chamber 2022-06-30 | On June 11th, 2022, the Black River & Western hosted their third annual Railfest. The focal point of the busy weekend's events was the operation of two passenger trains, one departing each station every 45 minutes. This historic event utilized the recently restored Copper Hill Siding, which saw use for the first time since the 1970s. Passengers had the opportunity to deboard the train in Ringoes, which was complete with entertainment, food, and historic machines. The excursions on this weekend were lead by ALCo 2-8-0 60 and EMD SW9 438, both fan favorites on the BR&W. The whistle worn by 60 in this video is a Chicago, Burlington, & Quincy 5 Chime. Black River & Western 60 is a 2-8-0 Consolidation built by the American Locomotive Company in August 1937. 60's original work was in the Great Plains of Colorado, pulling many of the Great Western Railway's sugar beet and molasses trains. Like many other of the GWR's steam locomotives, 60's smokebox was extended during World War II, allowing for more efficient use cheaper grades of coal. By 1963, 60 was purchased by the newly-formed Black River & Western Railroad and by 1965 was again operating. In 2000, 60 was taken out of service. She sat dormant for 12 years, returning to operation in 2012. Since then, 60 has faithfully served the BR&W and is beloved by many.

Reading & Northern 2102: Reliving The Iron Horse Rambles Train Chamber 2022-05-29 | On May 28th, 2022, Reading T-1 2102 made her inaugural excursion on the Reading & Northern, beginning a new era of steam railroading in the Northeast. Her presence was made known as this behemoth thundered through the mountains of Anthracite Country, taking the title of the loudest steam locomotive in the United States. After millions of dollars, thousands of man hours, and six years, this marvel of engineering and ingenuity is once again alive. Join along, as we document the locomotive lead the first "Iron Horse Rambles" in over 60 years. The Reading 2102 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1923, originally designated as an I-10sa class 2-8-0, 2044. By 1945, the Reading's growing demand for more powerful locomotives was answered, the locomotive was rebuilt into a T-1 class 4-8-4 in their very own shops. The T-1s performed beautifully, hauling coal trains across miles of track and up steep mount grades. This tenure eventually came to an end in 1956, when the Reading ended steam operation. The future was bleak, as 2102 became a steam generator for a steel plant. However, on April 29th, 1962, the locomotive exited an extensive restoration, pulling the Iron Horse Rambles along sister T-1 locomotives. By 1965, the Rambles ended, and 2102 was sold off. Again, she would not sit idle for long, as she ran all across the Northeast. In 1985, 2102 was sold to Andy Muller, owner of the up and coming Blue Mountain & Reading Railroad. 2102 ran for another six years, making her final run on October 27, 1991. While she was moved around here and there, the locomotive sat dormant until January 2016, when it was announced the locomotive would undergo restoration in the Reading, Blue Mountain, and Northern's steam shops. After six years, the locomotive is once again riding the rails of the steel road.

New Hope & Ivyland 40: Winter in the Woodland Hills Train Chamber 2021-12-31 | As per winter tradition, the New Hope Railroad fired up their very own steam locomotive, #40, for use on the 2021 "Santa's Steam Spectacular" Excursions. This short video documents the railroad's winter operations to Lahaska, following the modest consolidation working through the woodland hills of Bucks County. In this video, 40 is equipped with a Southern Pacific 6 Chime. NH&I 40 is a 2-8-0 Consolidation-Type locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works on December 2, 1925 for the Lancaster & Chester of South Carolina. In 1947, 40 was sold to Cliffside Railroad of North Carolina, becoming the biggest locomotive on the railroad, weighing in at 80 tons. In 1962, 40 was moved to the Reading shops in New Hope PA alongside Canadian National 4-6-0 1533. By 1974, 40 was fully restored for the New Hope Steam Railway, eventually becoming the railroad's main locomotive. In 2014, #40 went down for a FRA mandated 1472 and returned in time for the 2017 Winter Season on the NH&I.Special Thanks:New Hope RailroadThe crews of NH&I 40Support the NHRR: newhoperailroad.com Locations0:00 New Hope, PA2:47 South Sugan Road3:39 Brick Mill Curve4:49 Aquetong5:37 Lahaska, PA7:05 ReederFilmed on December 4th, 12th, and 19th, 2021.______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Black River & Western 60: The Hunterdon County Creeper Train Chamber 2021-12-24 | Winter 2021 sought the return of the North Pole Express on the Black River & Western Railroad. For these excursions, the BR&W fired up their famed steam locomotive, #60, depicted making her normal run from Flemington to Ringoes. She would pull the Christmas-Themed trips for multiple weekends throughout November and December, documented in this video. The two whistles worn by 60 in this video are a Chesapeake & Ohio 3 Chime and New York Central 5 Chime. Black River & Western 60 is a 2-8-0 Consolidation built by the American Locomotive Company in August 1937. 60's original work was in the Great Plains of Colorado, pulling many of the Great Western Railway's sugar beet and molasses trains. Like many other of the GWR's steam locomotives, 60's smokebox was extended during World War II, allowing for more efficient use cheaper grades of coal. By 1963, 60 was purchased by the newly-formed Black River & Western Railroad and by 1965 was again operating. Since then, 60 has faithfully served the BR&W and is beloved by many.

Everett Railroad 11: The Morrison Cove Clipper Train Chamber 2021-11-25 | In November 2021, the Everett Railroad hosted a photo charter held by John Craft in conjunction with Historic Transportation Preservation Inc. This photo event turned back the clock to the early 1930s, recreating scenes which were once a common sight on American Shortlines. The Everett Railroad's small but trusty mogul ventured south towards Martinsburg, where a multitude of runbys took place within Morrison Cove. For this charter, 11 sported a different headlight (which was once on N&W 475 and GWR 90), and lead mixed-freight train of two PRR boxcars and a combine. Everett Railroad is a product of ALCo's Cooke Works, classified as a 260-111 class 2-6-0 Mogul. She was built in 1920, with intent of being shipped to Cuba, where she would work in the country's vast fields of sugar cane. Due to fluctuations in the sugar industry following World War I, the little mogul never went to Cuba. She sat unused for three years, until purchased by the Narragansett Pier Railroad, which gave her the number she wears to this day. After a 14 year tenure at the NP, she was purchased by the Bath & Hammondsport Railroad of Western New York. The modest locomotive was retired from the B&H in 1949 and was stored in the railroad's engine house until 1955, when she was purchased for Dr. Stanley A. Groman's “Rail City” museum. The locomotive would exchange hands again, even returning to her home NP rails in Rhode Island. In 2006 she was purchased by Alan Maples of the Everett Railroad, where she resides today. After an extensive restoration, 11 returned to faithfully serve the Everett Railroad, hauling the railroad's many passenger excursions since 2015.Special Thanks:The Everett RailroadThe Crews of Everett Railroad 11John CraftHistoric Transportation Preservation IncMy FamilyRide the Everett Railroad: everettrailroad.comSupport John Craft & HTP Inc: steamspecials.com Filmed on November 6th, 2021______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Reading & Northern 425: The Autumn Leaf Explorer - Fall Foliage 2021 Train Chamber 2021-11-01 | In Autumn 2021, the Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern brought back their famous Fall Foliage Excursions for the first time since 2019. The Reading to Jim Thorpe round trip was lead by light pacific #425, which is revered as the loudest steam locomotive in the United States. The locomotive lived up to her given title, creating thunderous, deafening sounds as she worked up the steep mountain grades of the old anthracite roads. This year the RBMN added a third weekend of steam-powered excursions, allowing for more coverage of this annual tradition. In the beginning of October, the leaves show mainly greens, with hints of foliage beginning to turn. By the last two weekends of the month, green leaves were a rarity, as the foliage reached its peak, creating a vibrant display of yellow, orange, and red leaves. During these excursions, the locomotive sported multiple whistles; a Boston & Maine 6 Chime, a Reading Company G-2 6 Chime, a Baltimore & Ohio "Tumor Top" 3 Chime, a Norfolk & Western 12' Hooter, and a Pennsylvania Railroad K4 3 Chime.Reading & Northern #425 is a 4-6-2 Pacific type steam locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive works in 1928 for the Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad. She is the first of two G-1 Type locomotives for the GM&N (425 and later scrapped 426). When the locomotives went to the GM&O, they became 580 (425), and 582 (426). After her time there, 425 was owned by several other railroads, including the Louisiana & Eastern, Valley Forge Scenic Railway, Wilmington & Western, and the Blue Mountain & Reading where she ran alongside 2102. The BM&R became RBM&N (R&N for short) in 1990, after the acquisition of 150 miles of track due to the bankruptcy of Conrail. In 1992, 425 was painted into her famous Blue Paint Scheme inspired by Reading Bluebird. From 1996 to 2007 the famed locomotive sat dormant, but by 2008, she returned to regular passenger service. In 2011, 425 was given roller bearings by the Strasburg Railroad, and in 2015, painted to her current blue, a GM&N "Road of Service" inspired paint scheme, completing the look she wears today.Special Thanks:Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern RailroadThe Crews of RBM&N 425Reading & Northern Passenger DepartmentMy FamilyRBM&N Passenger Department:rbmnrr-passenger.com Locations:0:00 North Reading, PA1:03 Leesport1:47 Milepost 672:19 Milepost 702:49 Berne3:17 Hamburg3:44 Port Clinton4:04 Fork Mountain Road4:21 Molino5:18 Drehersville6:49 Pine Valley7:30 Hecla7:52 Reynolds8:49 Tuscarora Park Road9:11 Tamaqua Tunnel9:54 Barnesville10:25 East Mahanoy Junction10:45 Hometown High Bridge12:00 Milepost 10812:33 Lake Drive13:15 Lake Hauto14:31 Panther Creek14:56 Nesquehoning15:59 Jim Thorpe, PA19:09 Milepost 12120:23 Nesquehoning Tunnel21:10 Milepost 116 22:05 Tippets Pond22:48 Greenwood Lake23:47 Hometown Hill24:25 Marian Avenue25:03 Hometown, PA26:23 Tuscarora Park Road26:49 Tamaqua Station27:20 Zehners27:52 Reynolds28:14 Hecla28:36 Rauschs 29:06 Miller's Crossing29:34 Molino29:51 Port Clinton31:45 Hamburg32:11 Leesport33:52 Peacock's Lock Viaduct34:25 North Reading, PAFilmed on October 2nd, 3rd, 23rd, 24th, 30th, & 31st, 2021.______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Strasburg Railroad 90, 89, & 475: Autumn Steam on the Road to Paradise Train Chamber 2021-10-17 | One year ago today, on October 17th, 2020, The Strasburg Railroad celebrated the 60th Anniversary of steam powered tourist operations. In a series of four photo events, Strasburg's pride and joy, Baldwin 2-10-0 #90 was returned to the paint scheme she had 1967, with whitewalls, white pinstripes, gold highlights, and the famous "Egg Logo." Canadian National 89 was also included in on the day's photo events, pulling both passenger and vintage freight cars. Lastly, Strasburg's newest resident, 4-8-0 #475 operated, pulling the regular tourist trains throughout the day.Strasburg 90 is the largest, youngest, and most powerful among Strasburg’s fleet and one of the original Strasburg Engines. She was built in 1924 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works and is a one of a kind locomotive. The 96 year old 2-10-0 decapod began her service hauling Sugar Beet Trains and by the 1950s, 90 only saw occasional use. She was then retired in 1967, but given new life by the Strasburg Railroad when they purchased her 1967. She has run ever since, becoming a favorite to train enthusiasts, crews, and photographers alike.Norfolk & Western 475 is a 4-8-0 "Mastodon" (M Class) type steam locomotive built in 1906 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works. Locomotive 475 was in the original order of M Class steam locomotives by the N&W, where she would go on to haul heavy freight and coal trains. Eventually replaced by the N&W's larger engines, 475 found work on branch lines, such as the Virginia Creeper out of Abingdon VA. 475 ran for 50 consecutive years before being retired in 1956 and with an uncertain future, she would change hands until she wound up at a scrapyard. She was saved from scrap in 1980 and would change hands multiple time again, until eventually winding up at the Strasburg Railroad in 1991. She was restored by 1993 and has been operating ever since.Canadian National 89 is an 2-6-0 Mogul, classed as an E-10-a by the Canadian National. She was originally built in February 1910 by the Canadian Locomotive Company for the Grand Trunk Railway as number 1009. In 1919 it was renumbered 911. In 1923, the Grand Trunk was merged into the Canadian National Railway (CN) with 911 being one of the thousands of locomotives working for this new railroad. In 1951, 911 was renumbered 89. In 1965, she was sold to the Green Mountain Railroad and was then sold in 1972 to the Strasburg Railroad, where she operates today.Locations:0:00 Ranck's Crossing1:06 Bylers2:31 Cherry Hill4:10 Esbenshade4:51 Cherry Hill5:48 CarpentersSome people I met up with:MPT 1225: youtube.com/channel/UClAZS0BFA7ApgpPpu0SZLSQEthan Trainz Productions: youtube.com/channel/UCj-Xes_HbbMiIFcOq13gGoAC Henderson Rail Productions: youtube.com/channel/UC6k3LZmYw7Hibpavu091lSwLanes Trains: youtube.com/channel/UCbNsQhFLdpnWdj74hWy0yBQI-Trooper89: youtube.com/channel/UC50GDGZ8EuiSe7bFr-ANX7wFilmed on October 17th, 2020Fun fact because you read this far: I actually uploaded this video on March 29th of this year, but have had it scheduled for today._______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Dollywood Express 192: Alaskan Heritage in the Smoky Mountains Train Chamber 2021-09-26 | The original attraction at Dollywood is none other than the Dollywood Express, where park-goers are able to experience the sights, sounds, and smells of an authentic coal fired steam locomotive. We were able to document this operation, with trains lead by locomotive 192 during our time in the Smokies. Join us, as we watch the locomotive work her way up the mountain, around winding curves and grades as steep as 6%.Originally built in 1961, the Rebel Railroad was built as a sister attraction to the well-known Tweetsie Railroad. Through the 1960s and 70s, the attraction would undergo multiple ownership and name changes, eventually acquiring three more steam locomotives. In 1986, Dolly Parton acquired the attraction, rebranding the park and railroad into what we know it as today, Dollywood.Dollywood Express 192, is a USATC S118 class 2-8-2 narrow gauge mikado, built in 1943 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works. Affectionately nicknamed "Klondike Katie," the locomotive originally worked in Alaska, for the Unites States Army Transportation Corps and eventually the White Pass & Yukon. WP&Y 192 has called the Smokies her home since 1961 and has operated trains on the 2.5 mile line ever since.Locations:0:00 The Village0:55 Craftsman's Valley1:38 Owen's Farm2:30 Timber Canyon3:56 Upper Loop4:50 Craftsman's Valley5:15 The VillageSpecial Thanks:DollywoodThe Crew of 192My FamilyThis video was filmed on July 27th, 2021.______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Tweetsie Railroad 190: Yukon Queen In the Blue Ridge - 2021 Train Chamber 2021-09-18 | While Tweetsie's pride and joy, ET&WNC 12, is out of service, they use stablemate WP&YR 190 for daily operations. Affectionately nicknamed "The Yukon Queen," 190 is often tasked with pulling the railroad's regular trains, navigating a three-mile loop, with grades as steep as 4%. During our tour of the South, we were able to stop by the park, and capture 190 doing her daily work. For the first time since 2018, we were able to capture a 3-foot gauge steam locomotive, this time, in HD.Nestled within the Blue Ridge Mountains, Tweetsie Railroad was opened on July 4th, 1957, with locomotive 12 pulling Wild-West Themed trains. The name "Tweetsie" is derived from the original ET&WNC, where the nickname was earned due to the sound of the locomotive whistles. In 1960, the park obtained their second steam locomotive, WP&YR 190. White Pass & Yukon [Tweetsie] 190 is a USATC S-118 Class steam locomotive, built by Baldwin in 1943 for the United States Army Transportation Corps. 190 served the USATC and WP&YR faithfully until her retirement in 1960, where she would promptly again be pressed into service at the Tweetsie Railroad alongside sister 192, which is now at Dollywood. Upon her arrival at the park, 190 underwent some cosmetic upgrades in order to more closely resemble ET&WNC 12. 190 has operated at the park ever since. The whistle on 190 is her original Crosby 3 chime from when she began operation in 1960.Locations:0:00 Blowing Rock, NC0:30 Tweetsie Junction2:31 The Hacienda4:02 Dead Horse Trestle5:02 Frontier Outpost5:47 Tweetsie JunctionSpecial Thanks:Tweetsie RailroadThe Crew of 190 & ActorsMy FamilyFilmed on July 26th, 2021.______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Black River & Western 60: The Black River Limited Train Chamber 2021-08-30 | Within the rolling hills and farmland of New Jersey, lies a hidden gem to modern tourist railroads, the Black River & Western. The claim to fame of the shortline is beloved steam locomotive, 60, an ALCo 2-8-0 Consolidation. Countless hours of volunteer work have lead to this; 60's return to service on July 3rd, 2021, after an FRA mandated 5-year inspection, and many other challenges. Throughout summer 2021, 60 was tasked with pulling the railroad's "Black River Limited" which are thoroughly documented in this video. The two whistles worn by 60 are a Grand Trunk Western 6 Chime and a Greenbrier Cheat & Elk 5 Chime.Black River & Western 60 is a 2-8-0 Consolidation built by the American Locomotive Company in August 1937. 60's original work was in the Great Plains of Colorado, pulling many of the Great Western Railway's sugar beet and molasses trains. Like many other of the GWR's steam locomotives, 60's smokebox was extended during World War II, allowing for more efficient use cheaper grades of coal. By 1963, 60 was purchased by the newly-formed Black River & Western Railroad and by 1965 was again operating. Since then, 60 has faithfully served the BR&W and is beloved by many.

Southern 630: Steam Over the Ridge - Missionary Ridge Local 2021 Train Chamber 2021-08-15 | For many years, Southern 630 has faithfully served the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum, whether it be the all-day Summerville Steam Special, or the 3-mile Missionary Ridge Local. In summer of 2021, we made the trek down to Chattanooga to film and photograph the well-known Consolidation as she pulled The Local from Grand Junction to East Chattanooga. The short 3-mile trip is filled with rich history, including passage over Chickamauga Creek and through the Missionary Ridge Tunnel, which was completed in 1854. Once in East Chattanooga, passengers get to de-board, where they view the locomotive on the turntable and tour the backshops. The whistle worn by 630 in this video is the Virginia & Southwestern 3 Chime.Southern #630 is a February 1904 product of ALCo classified as a Ks class 2-8-0 Consolidation. During her time of construction 630 was equipped with Stephenson's Valve gear, but then was upgraded to Southern Valve Gear, which she still has to this day. Throughout the years, 630 received more upgrades including a superheated boiler. 630 had faithfully served the Souther up until her retirement in 1954. 630 would see new life at the ET&WNC where she ran along stablemate 722. In 1967 she would return to the Southern to partake in their steam program. Since then, 630 has pulled many passengers. In 1989, 630 was put out of service and displayed in Asheville, NC until 1999, when she was donated to the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum, where she would see new excursion life beginning in 2011.Locations:0:00 Grand Junction1:25 Merriman Junction2:29 Hunziker Curve3:18 Missionary Ridge Tunnel4:11 East Chattanooga5:23 Missionary Ridge Tunnel6:22 Chickamauga Creek6:55 Grand JunctionSpecial Thanks:Tennessee Valley Railroad MuseumThe Crew of Southern 630My FamilyFilmed on July 24th, 2021______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Great Smoky Mountains Railroad 1702: The Nantahala Queen Train Chamber 2021-08-01 | At the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, lies a heritage railroad, not too far from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Great Smoky Mountains Railroad makes use of the old Southern Murphy Branch and owns 53 miles of track, operating excursions from Dillsboro to Nantahala. The Nantahala Gorge Excursion originates in Bryson City and offers scenic views for those on board, crossing Fontana Lake via a 780 foot-long trestle and paralleling the Nantahala River. For certain months throughout the summer, the GSMR brings out their very own operational steam locomotive, 1702, to pull these excursions. The consolidation is tasked with pulling at least 17-car long trains and more often that not, requires a diesel assist on the rear. Despite this, the 1702 is put to the test, especially in the upper gorge, where passengers can experience a hint of the grueling Red Marble Grade.Great Smoky Mountains Railroad 1702 is a USATC (United States Army Transportation Corps.) S-160 class consolidation steam locomotive. The stocky 2-8-0 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1942 and intended for export to Europe during the Second World War. Although this was not the case, as 1702 never went overseas, eventually being pressed into service at the Fort Bragg Military Base. She faithfully served the United States until 1961, when she was retired. In 1964, 1702 was sold to the Reader Railroad in Arkansas, where she underwent many cosmetic upgrades, operating until 1972, pulling the last regularly-scheduled mixed train in the US before being put into storage. 1702 would have a stint of operating time at the Fremont & Elkhorn Valley Railroad from 1986 to 1991, when she was purchased by the GSMR. She ran from 1991 to 2004, when she was again put into storage until her most recent restoration, which was from 2012 to 2016. 1702 has been operational since then, pulling both the Tuckasegee River and Nantahala Gorge excursions.

Reading & Northern 425: The Anthracite Flyer Train Chamber 2021-07-05 | In early summer of 2021, Reading & Northern 425 was yet again tasked with excursion service. The high-stepping pacific, the current loudest steam locomotive in the United States, was again put to the test, making easy work of her tasks. The R&N 425 is well known for her stylish blue paint, deafening stack talk, and wide variety of whistles, which is showcased in this video. The first part of this video covers the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway, an eight-mile scenic ride originating in Jim Thorpe and traveling along the Lehigh River. The second part of this videos contains the early-morning ferry move of 425 from Jim Thorpe to Tamaqua, where the locomotive reached upwards of 30+ MPH. The final section of this video covers the first public steam excursions on the Reading Line since 2019, during this year's Tamaqua Summerfest.

Norfolk & Western 611: The Return of the Queen - Strasburg Railroad 2021 Train Chamber 2021-06-11 | Norfolk & Western 611 is affectionately nicknamed "The Queen of Steam" on behalf of her grand size and appearance. In October 2019, the 611 visited Strasburg for a short 4-week trip. After the events and celebration of "The Reunion of Steam" 611 had made her way back home, ending off a once in a lifetime experience. In early 2021, it was announced that 611 would once again return to the Road to Paradise, for an entire summer of events. Yet again this American Legend would operate in the quaint hills of Lancaster. Join us, as we follow the Tuscan Monarch pulling excursions along the Strasburg Railroad's right of way.Norfolk & Western 611 is a 4-8-4 J-Class Locomotive and a product of the N&W Roanoke shops. She faithfully served the N&W from her construction in 1950 to her retirement in 1959. 611 is the sole survivor of the famed N&W J-Class, on part of a successful reconstruction after a 1956 wreck. In July of 1982, 611 was fired up for the first time in her excursion life, seeing many more years of service in this second life. After another 12 years of faithful service, 611 was put on display, with an uncertain future in excursion service. In 2013, Fire-Up 611! was formed and the by 2015 locomotive would breathe yet again, operating for the first time in 21 years.Locations: 0:00 Bylers [Private Property]1:15 Carpenters3:18 Groundhog Cut [Private Property]4:42 Esbenshade5:56 Fairview6:59 East Strasburg/J Tower7:44 Cherry Hill9:12 Carpenters11:11 Bylers [Private Property][DISCLAIMER] Some of these shots are on PRIVATE property, for which we had permission to shoot on.

New Hope & Ivyland 40: A Springtime Tradition Train Chamber 2021-05-28 | The season of Spring is symbolic for many things, including the return of plant life, the start of outdoor activities, and in the aftermath of an unpredictable year, the return to normality. Traditionally, springtime is also opening season for many tourist railroads, which holds true to the New Hope Railroad, nestled on the banks of the Delaware River. The railroad opened their steam season on this May weekend, running their beloved 1925 Baldwin steam locomotive, #40. Join us, as 40 navigates the curves and the grades as she completes a 4.5 mile jaunt through the forests, recently repopulated by local flora.

In 1962, #40 was moved to the Reading shops in New Hope PA alongside Canadian National 4-6-0 #1533. In 1974 #40 was fully restored for the New Hope Steam Railway, which came under new ownership, becoming the New Hope & Ivyland Railroad. In 2014, #40 went down for a FRA mandated 1472, to return for the 2017 Winter Season on the NH&I.Locations:0:00 New Hope, PA1:28 Aquetong Creek (South Sugan Bridge)2:32 Brick Mill Curve3:57 Aquetong4:58 Lower Mountain6:03 Lahaska7:45 Lower Mountain8:39 Reeder9:43 South Sugan Special ThanksNew Hope RailroadThe crew of NH&I 40My Family Matts Trains & Tractors: youtube.com/channel/UC8g_itwoQdDd_QRXrTqEexABusiness Car 10 Productions: youtube.com/channel/UC1NnarKpqciCkKcuDvyG0wgTristan Rail Productions:youtube.com/channel/UCSMrJmAGZdeFlxBLFeAZoXwEthan Trainz Productions:youtube.com/watch?v=ON5NxwE1I-YFilmed on May 16th, 2021._______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.

Norfolk & Western 475: Steaming Into Spring - Strasburg Railroad 2021 Train Chamber 2021-04-10 | The Easter 2021 season at the Strasburg Railroad sought high demand, with the railroad needing to run two trains. One of the locomotives in charge of this operation was Norfolk & Western 475, a 4-8-0 Mastodon Locomotive. In still winter-like weather, the 115 year-old steam locomotive performed her tasks with ease, charged with pulling a seven car train along the railroad's 4.5 mile route. Follow along, as we capture the locomotive doing her daily routine. The whistle on 475 in this video is the Shop-Built 3 chime.Norfolk & Western 475 is a 4-8-0 "Mastodon" (M Class) type steam locomotive built in 1906 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works. Locomotive 475 was in the original order of M Class steam locomotives by the N&W, where she would go on to haul heavy freight and coal trains. Eventually replaced by the N&W's larger engines, 475 found work on branch lines, such as the Virginia Creeper out of Abingdon VA. 475 ran for 50 consecutive years before being retired in 1956 and with an uncertain future, change hands until she wound up at a scrapyard. She was saved from scrap in 1980 and would change hands multiple time again, until eventually winding up at the Strasburg Railroad in 1991. She was restored by 1993 and has been operating ever since.Locations:0:00 Leaman's Place Yard Limit1:31 Carpenters3:22 Cherry Hill5:22 Esbenshade6:28 Fairview7:37 Esbenshade8:46 Cherry HillSpecial Thanks:Strasburg Railroad[CORRECTION] The Crew of N&W 475My FamilyI-Trooper089 Productions: youtube.com/channel/UC50GDGZ8EuiSe7bFr-ANX7wEastern PA Railfan: youtube.com/channel/UC22bXpjue48SRraOsJNb6QwNotch 8 Photography: instagram.com/notch8photographyFilmed on April 2nd, 2021_______________________________________________________________________________________________©Train Chamber Productions 2021All Rights Reserved This video may not be reproduced, copied, or reposted without the permission of Train Chamber Productions.
