Anyone else get nostalgia from their childhood?

18:31 Start of the Sierra Railway #3, AKA, the Polar Express whistle! Quite literally my favorite steam engine whistle of all time! Thanks for including the tiny but might train with a strong whistle! Love it so much CoasterFan!

10:26 That Whistle Brings me Back🫡

lets have a Moment to appreciate that these videos were there for our childhood

My son is sick tonight and wont sleep and this is the only thing that makes him happy.

I grew up in Fort Bragg, California, and used to see #45 all the time. As a teenager, I was part of the model railroad club that operates a layout in a building right next to the depot, and on weekends I'd bring my model trains and help run the layout. When #45 was running, I'd always go outside when I heard it coming and feel the ground shake as it rolled by, not 20 feet from where I stood. I recent moved a long way away, and this video brings back memories. Man, I miss the Skunk Train.

Who else loves the big boy?

Love that red loco at the start. Looks like an old freighter judging by the small diameter drivers. That whistle she has is awesome too!

I Agree with the KZfaq Likes, We Want To Keep on Watching Steam Train Videos on Your KZfaq Channel Forever and Ever.

The nostalgia I’m feeling is crazy

Sierra Railway #3 Has the Best Steam Whistle I've Ever Heard!

7:45 Love that eagle flying there 🦅

The nevada and truckee railroad and the nevada state railroad museum, are my favourite part of the video.

Brings back very special and unique memories of riding and blaring horns on old steam locomotives. Let me just say these were rare privileged moments from the sixties. To be able to ride with the engineer and coal feeder on these huge, power monsters as a kid in his preteens, my most thrilling moment had to be when I could blast the loud horn by pulling the string (rope) overhead at will. Only when approaching a blind corner, unmanned crossings and the train stations he told me but I just couldn't resist doing it at will. He just laughed at my young mischievousness and the chuckle it brought from me. I still love the sound of the whistle (horn) when one goes by.

I just want to say a big thank you for posting this footage. My little boy is obsessed with trains and he watches these on a daily basis with such joy. We don't live in an area where we have year-round access to steam trains like this, so being able to see it on KZfaq is a treat for him, especially in the cold months when the train museums are closed.

Love all of the videos of the steam locomotives. I'm from a small town in Tennessee and we at one time had a steam train and it was called number 1 of the clinchfield railroad. But when CSX came in here we lost our little steam train. I wish the people and the town would get it back home ☹️☹️😡😡

Wow! Romantic! The words "Passengers do not sleep, but there is silence around, Outside the window, the sound of wheels, in the lights of the city. "

Whoever put all the time and effort into this series: THANK YOU. This is my son's favorite series and we use it to get him to brush teeth every night. My husband and I have really come to enjoy watching the trains too!

Nice rail movie. My daughter and I enjoyed it very much! Thanks!

My son absolutely loves all of Mike Armstrong’s train videos!! My husband and I actually enjoying watching them too. Thanks for all the effort in creating a wholesome form of entertainment for our family. Chooo chooooo!

Really GREAT steam-sound with great landscapes....

One of the very best vids I've seen on steam trains! The term "galore" is most appropriate. The variety is astounding : wood- and coal-burning locos (and the appropriate chimney!), 2- and 4-cylinders and geared locos, genuine 4-4-0 American and 4-6-0 ten-wheelers, all types of old cars.. A regal! Thanks CoasterFan!

From Australia. I wished we kept our steam locos. Most of them are in mothballs and are too costly to run on mainline routes. Enjoyed your video. Thanks.

Thank you, my 3 year old son LOVES your videos.

The steam came out of the side! Looked beautiful!!! Thank you so much for this video! (10:48)

Absolutely magnificent! Not a dull moment if you like steam trains. Beautiful American landscapes add to the pleasure. Superb to watch on my new 75"TV. I hope there is more coming. Thanks for posting. Greetings from Australia.

My 2 year old son loves trains (real ones not cartoons) and he watches this video every morning. I thought it would be boring, but sat with him to watch it and it is very well made, interesting and has prompted me to look in to some travel-by-train vacations. Thanks!

Ah well, who could have imagined America was this beautiful? Old West trains restored to their former glory. Beautiful video. Greetings from Australia.

Soy fanático por los trenes a vapor de muy niño, gracias a ty por ilustrar estos videos, fantástico.

Wow! This is absolutely fabulous! I have always bemoaned the fact that camcorders came along only after steam locomotives disappeared. Thanks to KZfaq, I can view these beauties again.

thank for showing this fantastic video all that was missing was the smell of steam and warm oil

You had some amazing shots of the Inyo, she is a real beauty, hopefully in 2015, you can film the Nevada State Railroad museums newly restored Glenbrook, a narrow guage locomotive that used to haul wood by Lake Tahoe.

Great video! No annoying commentary or music, just perfect

Shays #10 and #15 are from the west side lumber company. They are pretty cool at the YMSPRR.

Wonderful video tour of steam railway. Exhilerating, life giving ..... something wonderful from the olden times. A feast for the eyes .....such heritage steam railways are no less than a moving museum!

Thank you for uploading this and part 1- it's my toddler's new favorite! And I love seeing the beautiful scenery 😉

Starting at around the 5:13 mark, that looks like to be the Virginia and Truckee Railroad, which starts its run in Virginia City....

3х летний сын смотрит с удовольствием! спасибо!

Looks like i have a new Brick Rigs build, the Virginia & Truckee No. 25. Thanks for the idea!

LOVE Me Some ~“STEAM TRAINS”~ 😁 Many Thanks for sharing!!!

30:16 dragging 8 coaches and still keeping up that speed...that's impressive!

Thank you very much for the video. I love the 3 truck shays and the narrow gauge mountain logging engines. Thanks again. I love steam; the heck with diesels.

that sound of the whistle lovely

Sir, thank you so much for posting this wonderful video about those sleek, cast-iron maidens. I've always been plagued that they might discontinue historical tourist sites in which you could ride a locomotive from way back when, however they are still everywhere as one of America's.......mascots. Hopefully the diesels don't take over their positions in history, popular culture, and steam-exibitions! ~Greetings from Tennessee

Thank you for this! Great way to spend a rainy day!

My toddler just loves these videos

My 2.5 year old is obsessed with this video!!

Not sure what it is that makes steam locomotives so appealing. Nonetheless, they are arguably one of the best things ever invented!

Great footage of southern California and Yosemite National Park! Didn't know that trains ran through these areas...beautiful scenery! Thanks for posting!

Very nice video and I love your camera quality. Big thumbs up from me again my friend!

Who else loves Yosemite #10 🚂

My 3 year old son loved it !!

Thanks for the videos. I just can't help myself, I love trains.

I love this and hope to share it with family who also love trains. Thank you so much.

Fantastic cinematography!

Shay 15 looks like it once did when it was with the west side lumber co. There are quite a lot of shays left and are all well preserved. There are shays 9, 10, 12, 14 and 15 still in service

Show de bola mesmo! Maria Fumaça é sempre uma festa à parte!

That SP 6 chime on #10 is something else!

I can’t wait to see one of these with 2102 2100 1309 and the East Broad Top in it

I really enjoy watching Train videos from America and around the World, keep making more of these amazing and awesome videos

I remember this video. When I was a kid❤❤😊

The 2-8-2 Baldwins are both superheated logging-railway builds, with certain specification differences between California Western #45 (Baldwin serial 58045), on her home tracks, and McCloud River #18 (serial 41709), as a guest locomotive of the Virginia & Truckee. The V&T owns a 2-8-0 Baldwin saturated-steamer, serial 44235 (ex-Longview, Portland and Northern #680), as fleet number 29; original locomotives #22 (4-4-0, serial 3693) and #25 (4-6-0, serial 25016) are in running retirement at the Nevada State RR Museum.

The sound of the locomotive I love

I think my son (1y) has found something more interesting than cars. Loves the trains! Thanks for the video :)

Awwww The Skunk Train...my uncle Billy used to be a conductor before he passed away. Thanks for the videos my autistic son LOVES THEM!!!

Hi Mike: Had to tell I love your videos as CoasterFan 2105. This Steam Trains galore video is excellent and beautifully filmed in Hi Def. I loved it. ! Thanks for taking the time to document these historical sites,there's a chance as history has proved some of these may disappear someday and the people who rode them and remember them will pass on too. Your videos guarantee these historical railways will never be forgotten. Thanks

Would be awesome one day to have the narrow gauge railroad line reconnected from Chama, NM to Durango, CO again.

Excellent video! We have a steam museum not far from us with a Shay. Can't get enough of steam!

I love steam trains and passenger trains bc it makes me feel like a young kid again😂

Well, here is another case of a video that does not deserve the high number of dislikes. I loved this.

Wow! That was terrific!

Thank you for all the trains..

I love you steam trains galore videos

But its still cool to see these kinds of trains still out in the U.S.

Thank you for posting this video. Some how you've managed to get all of my favorite steam locomotives on here, and you did a fine job with the camera work as well.

Love it. I worked on Southern's last steam pile driver.

Great video of great pieces of machinery. My favorite shot is of 482 on the Highline.

Spectacular steam train video.

Another awesome production!

This old technique fascinates people all over the world. You can see and hear the power. It's a wonderful noise when the steam " hammers " on the piston. Where on earth can you hear the Doppler effect better than behind a running train, when the horn is blowing. I am from Germany and 65 Years of age. I remember whell, when our science teacher has brought us to a nearby railway station only because of listening to the blowing horn. Up to two or three years ago tourist groups have taken a flight to China for watching the QJ locomotive, Two and three pulled a long iron ore freight train over a mountain, old locomotive on the worlds modernst railway track. This track is not in North America, not in Europe, not in Australia or Japan, it is in China. But the Chinese government is against this tourism now. Its propaganda dislikes the " anachronism" of old technic and high tech. I have a question you may answer. The Baldwin steam locomotives have had a serioius chimney, that have looked a little bit like an inverse blast furnace. What was the advantage of this chimney? Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. I have enjoyed it from the first to the last second. Sorry for my not proper English, but it is 50 years ago that I have learned this language. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. I have enjoyed it from the first to the last second. Greetings from Germany across the "Big Pond" Paul

Coaster fan is that you ringing the bell on that steam train

Wow these videos are sure different than the new ones in a good way
