When I was a young I travel many times with steam locos in my country, Chile. The landscapes are very similar to this video: steam locomotive, local train, cloudy weather, many trees, beautiful souvenirs.

Gorgeous locomotive and railway. So glad they restored it after those fires.

I was there in 1986 or 1987. I didn't know it still existed. I found it very interesting at the time - and still does

Great sounding locomotive.

Very entertaining video. I am very pleased it was not ruined with crappy music as so many other steam videos. All we could ask for is, as received, the sound of the old steam engine.

Fun fact: that locomotive originally worked for the US Army during World War II as a class s-118. Some of its sisters survive in America. Notable American examples include White Pass & Yukon 190, 192, and 195.

Ummm they might find someone standing there spraying there coal before it’s dropped reduces the coal dust. That’s what they used to do in steam days with coaling stages.
