1877 locomotive "Eureka" from the Eureka and Palisades narrow gauge railroad on Nevada. The locomotive was rebuilt by Dan Markoff of Las Vegas in his back yard. And here used on the PBS series "The West directed by Steve Ives and produced by Ken Burns. Cinematographer Buddy Squires.
******************************************************************
Travel to Durango and Silverton in Colorado to watch the filming and generally screw around with 2 steam trains including the private business car Nomad (Civil War General Palmers car) and a 1880 era caboose. Shot in the late fall of 1994.
*******************************************************************
Some of the BEST Eureka footage ever. If you love early trains, you will enjoy this. Or at least not find it boring!

I drive along the Eureka Palisade line almost every day and wondered what the narrow gauge locomotive looked like. I'm glad someone saved that piece of Nevada history.

Here is the ironic part, the videos that you shot out in Colorado and New Mexico I remember watching so religiously I wore out my VHS. The videos you shot had mezmorized and I couldn't get my face off the screen. So thanks to you kind sir, you had me hooked on narrow gauge since I was 5. Today I'm proud to say I got to ride on the D&SRR and I still sit and dream here in my home in eastern MO wondering when I'll get to go again. Also coming from a guy who loves to play blue grass fiddle thank as always for incorperating fiddle tunes into you videos, for now cheers to you both and keep the sweet train videos coming. Andy

I don't have enough of the right superlatives to fully express my joy right now at seeing the old steamer.

I would settle for the plastic as the left hand is worse off then the right and unable to modify. But, reality sets in and my lovely Bride's voice rings in my brain, and once again I am without one.

+ToyManTelevision *4-4-0 Baldwin Class 8/18C, 3'-0" Gage, #3763, left Philadelphia only a month behind Virginia & Truckee River #22,* 4-4-0 Baldwin Class 8/22C, 4'-8.5" Gage, #3693, and was finished consistently with the V&TRR's 2-6-0 Baldwin 8/22D ore-pullers. The Westinghouse air pump was often retrofitted just ahead of the engineer's side of the cab by the roads that already owned these locomotives, and #3763 is no exception.
@ToyManTelevision
@ToyManTelevision 7 жыл бұрын
Dan's original goal was to return the locomotive to as delivered by Baldwin. However, as he wanted to run the locomotive, it was pointed out that removing the Westinghouse breaks and the injectors as well as going back to link and pin would ban him from most if not all railroads and make the locomotive very unsafe.

A Texas rancher went to Maine and came across an old farmer. They talked a bit and the rancher, being a Texan, had to brag just a bit; "Ya know, it takes me a full day to drive from one end of my ranch to the other.

A great carpenter in Maine builds a new outhouse for an elderly lady. Looks great, but when he asks to be paid she says "I ain't payen". He asks why. "I ain't sayen". So he looks the work over, seems fine. SO he sticks his head through the hole to see the underside of the seat. All good. But when he pulls his head back out a beard hair sticks in a small crack in the edge. "Eurts duddent it" she says.

Just for the record that is not a Civil War era caboose. The D&RGW's short cabooses were all built between 1904 and 1918; then again, the Eureka isn't civil war era either.

True, just post war, The bobber cabooses were built at about the same time, many later were re trucked into short cabooses as was 0500. Two or three now restored back to bobber. the bobbers were just a bit shorter, and all were somewhat different from each other. 0500 was built in 1886. So as close as we could get for the filming Bobber would had been better.

YES!! It's fine. Problem is FRA permits. Boiler inspections. Dan has been running at the Museum in Henderson, on the sly, as it's still a real railroad and under FRA rules. But he drives it in his driveway when the mood hits. Once the car is ready he will pass the hat and get back out to Chama or Durango. About 15K to move it. Nice when a film producer is willing to pay. In this case they only covered 50% and the rest of us kicked in. I sold footage to a bank for a TV spot, and they MORE than covered the remanding 50% And may need to re tube the boiler, even though it's FINE!! But rules say the boiler can't just be inspected, must be re tubed at times. Pointless BS.

I don't know why but American 4-4-0s always seem gaudy to me. Beautiful but gaudy. Like they're painted by people with no taste. And then later locomotives are all 1 color, usually black. It's like the US never figured out how to paint steam locomotives nicely. Then you look at British trains and they're in very recognisable liveries, usually 2 or 3 colors and consistent among all the engines (sometimes with two styles for goods and passenger locos) and it just seems nicer.

I do love it though. Gaudy yet I get it. In it's day, everything was over blown. I agree the British paint is amazing. THe deep wine and green, with just the right off sets, a bit of gold, cream, black. Neve understood the bright red but I assume that was for safety.

Gaudy yet magnificent. In the early 80s I was going to join a ship in East Germany via Berlin railway station where, amongst the run of the mill diesels was a large steam locomotive on some special duty bound for Moscow with the crossed flags, etc on the front - a breathtaking sight. It only seem gaudy to us now - it was black and white back in the day! ;-)

I've watched this video 6 times due in part to the wonderful background fiddle music that makes me cry! I really love the old time trains, with my California favorite being the Roaring Camp Railroad in Felton. I sincerely would like to take you Karyn & the Rat Fink out to dinner whenever you are near the Disneyland area. Thanks for this very special video! Your relaxing voice & commentary set me at ease after a long day! Keep up the good work of screwing around! :) Kerri the Merri

Toy Man Television YeeeeHaaa Toyman! I love all of Ken Burns films, especially The West! America in the 1800's - wagon trains, pioneer men & women are my favorite!! I have the diaries of the women on those wagon trains...unbelievable hardship & courage! My brother Mike has a 10 acre horse ranch in Williamstown NJ. When I visit. we go on a 8 mile trail ride at Valley Forge with 25 Williamstown riders. I am dressed in my 1880's riding outfit with split skirt, vest & hat. Just call me Kerri "Annie Oakley" Dillon! I remain firm on my offer to buy you & Karyn dinner when next you are in California. Email me: KerriTheRealtor@gmail.com Thanks for the wonderful videos! Hello to the Rat Fink too!
