Even when they’re mucky and grimy, steam engines still have an unparalleled beauty

Gorgeous photography - each still tells a story. I loved the rickety old engine with its equally rickety carriages. No new fangled stuff like continuous brakes. And the ash-pan dumping hot ash and coal between the rails. And the loco wheels locked up as the engine came to a halt - driver enjoying his ciggie.😄

Beautiful scenery, wonderful little trains. We hava lotta differences in our 2 cultures, but it seems the more difficult a situation is, the more beauty is brought into focus.

Proper working railway doing it’s job, moving it’s passengers, hasn’t spent billions on fancy stations, but it’s still going! I think some our politicians should learn from this.

A very successful design of locomotive; originally Russian but adapted and improved in China. One is in North Wales being converted to 2” gauge. Not fast but very powerful Starting Tractive Effort. CORRECTION: please see next post below!

@@stephensmith799 I think there is a misunderstanding here. These are Soviet designed locos from the 1930s later built in Poland and China. Sure, some may have ended up in Finland and taken by the USSR post-WW2. But they are not originally Finnish. Most/all the Chinese examples were built in China anyway.

You state that the passenger trains were "discontinued" (when you uploaded this video in 2021) But then, in 2022 someone else has a long video of it running..? Which I watched first about two hours ago (incidentally) - via: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mrqnltGKla2unI0.html Only finding your earlier video - as a suggestion much later... Thus which is it closed or running twice daily?
@petercrook4626 Жыл бұрын
When the video was uploaded has no relationship to when it was shot - 2010. The mine closed, the coal trains were obviously no longer running, and the passenger trains for the locals were discontinued . Tourist trains, as far as I know (for Chinese tourists) still run. I have no idea, not having watched it, when the other program was shot.
