Glad you got to talk about my favorite Lackawanna steam locomotive

A stream lined Super American that started life as a Camelback? I thought I was suprised when I found out about the SP Camelback. Super neat! The steam era will always be WAY more interesting then the Diesel days.

I just randomly remembered this channel this morning a binged this series, now you are uploading a new one on the SAME DAY.... wild.

There is an actual surviving Lackawanna 4-4-0 camelback at the st louis museum of transport. I think it is number 952

I can guess the reason was that an employee said “hey hey hey hey, I got an excellent idea, what if we streamlined a 4-4-0?” Cuz he wanted to let the world behold her streamlined form Or possibly for the 100th anniversary to the 4-4-0s

fun fact: 988 was actually featured on a calendar believe or not, this calendar is called central new york railways and was made in 2021

Love watching these videos! A few locomotives you might like are the 'Maine 2 Footers', 5 major railroads in the state of Maine all used 2 foot narrow gauge to keep costs down on the rural routes with sometimes difficult terrain, with all of them dead and gone after WWII, steam was their only power and the 5 surviving locomotives would be their claim to fame nowadays. 2 locomotives from both the Bridgton & Saco River Railroad and Monson Railroad, making up for 4 of the 5, these being own by the Maine Narrow Gauge Museum in Portland, Maine. The last locomotive of the 5 would hail from the remaining 3 major railroads, the famed Sandy River & Rangeley Lakes Railroad as No. 6, was then sold to the Kennebec Railroad as No. 4, and would end her original career on the Wiscasset, Waterville, & Farmington Railway as No. 9. WWFRy No. 9 was returned to a revived section of the original WWFRy where she operates both in tourist service and in historical recreations during photo charters. Currently B&SR No. 7 operates on WWFRy with plans to be returned to Portland before winter, B&SR No. 8 sits on static display with plans of restoration. Monson No. 3 is currently hauling Maine Narrow Gauge excursions in Portland, while No. 4 shares the same status as B&SR No. 8. All 5 locomotives have an incredible history between their historical operations, and how they were preserved, would love to see you tackle any of these remarkable locomotives!

@3:43 Probably their best-looking steam locomotive of all! 👍 This has been made in HO brass as well as in a chrome and black livery.

At first, I though this was a 4-4-0 Camelback converted into a streamlined 4-6-0 Ten wheeler. But I was wrong. It was a 4-4-0 American it’s entire life.

You think you could make a video on the Reading Company G-2 class 4-6-2 #178 and its closely resembled #108? They were both handsome semi-streamlined Reading passenger engines. 178 was used for the 'Reading Rail Ramble' in June 1937.

Awesome video! Great job!

i wanna see a replica of this baby streamlined locomotive

for the next remarkble engines can you do Santa fe/ bnsf 1460 "BEEP"

Can someone tell me how many Lackawanna steam locomotives are still around

Hey, so at 2:52 there is an image of a diagram, could I possibly get it? Thanks

In steamtown they have a Delaware lackawana western 2 6 0 565 what do you think of southern railway 385
