Thanks, it was good hanging out with you guys.

Thanks, hope you have fun!

Ah it’s good to finally get some new footage of a steam locomotive. Good video!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks, definitely the best wheel slip I've ever caught. It was great seeing you too.

@@SmokyMtnSteam What about the one from Tweetsie Railroad Heritage Weekend 2018?

I know right.

Awesome.

Thanks

Fitting for an old Southern branchline.

@@SmokyMtnSteam The whistle was made from plans of a real Southern Railway Steptop 3 Chime like Southern 154 wore during the charter (the dollywood whistle) and like 4501. Much better than that Rizzoli Ps4 copy. The crew seems to like it as well. I'm hoping this one stays. Now... If I can convince them to build a IC 6 Chime...

@@Heisler91 Perhaps one could also convince them to either track down or make a replica of the type of whistle her sisters overseas in the U.K. are wearing. Ah well. One can dream.

Well that's a better whistle than the other ones she used to have. That's much better!

A trick : watch series on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.

I went to Dollywood on Wednesday and might go back sometime next weekend.

@@SmokyMtnSteam Alright! Have fun!

There's really only 3 places to shoot the train - Cass itself, the Back Mountain Rd crossing and the Gum Rd crossing. The engines will be working harder at Gum Rd. You can pretty comfortably get the train leaving Cass and then beat it to either crossing, but you can't beat the train between the crossings with enough time to set up a camera. Just up from the Gum Rd crossing there is a farm above which you can see the train through a gap in the trees as it climbs the switchback, but the property owners don't like railfans so you may be runoff even if you're just standing on the side of the road. I'd recommend also checking out the Durbin Rocket, it can be seen at the depot in town as well as at the very end of the (unpaved) River Rd where you can either shoot across the river or hike across a swinging bridge to the iconic curve shot. Make sure to download offline maps before leaving home as there is absolutely no cell phone service anywhere in the area due to the radio telescope in Green Bank.

@@SmokyMtnSteam OK. Thanks for the info!

about 4.5 hours

They are diesel-only through the winter, I'll be back when steam returns in the late spring or early summer

That's good. But what's the next railroad you'll be visiting next?

@@Thomasboi01 probably TVRM in March

E Hellards Rd. If your trying to find it on Google maps it wont show up but its off US 74 just north of "Mystic Lands"

@@SmokyMtnSteam Thanks so much!

A Rizzoli replica of a Southern 3 chime.

@@radforddivisionrailfan I dont believe its Rizzoli. I think i heard it was shop built by a crew member

@@radforddivisionrailfan It's not Rizzoli. It was custom made by a shop member using plans from a real Southern Railway Steptop 3 Chime.

Ah, ok. Still sounds nice regardless who made it.
