@@maryhay2464 I was brought up in Wales the home of lots of different forms of coal. It was not until I moved to Lincolnshire & we used to get the od bit of Fiarey Jack from the top of the seam to burn on our house fires. It spits & blows dense black smoke. Welsh steam coal, yours is not. But the engine makes up for the Coal substitute. Do not worry, here in Britain at the end of steam they ran our railways on horrid coal that clinkered up the gratings & made quite horrid smoke. It is a case of burn what you can get, not what you would prefer.

reckon the fireman needs some tuition in working the controls of the oil. No need for all that smoke. I did enjoy the vid just the same. Brings back memories of my time working with steam back in the day.

Great VID. The smoke from the Steamer for this terrain is unnecessarily excessive and I would suggest it was put on for benefit of the camera. Or if not it needs a good tune up, failing that the engine driver needs some urgent remedial training.

@@steamfan2806 Thanks for the clarification. I am sure the Driver wouldn't be too happy with the Fireman under normal circumstances. Interestingly you can see when the Loco is under load as you get a mixture of Soot and Steam from the stack the others are just over fueling. Still good VId.

Nice job. Tripods of one kind or another do the trick. Do you have a fluid head tripod? You have some good talent. I love how you were able to record the Big Boy in the natural settings of Wyoming and Utah. Too many people shoot just close ups. Those can be good shots, but....Personally, I like to see the whole story, including the scenery the train is travelling through. Nice presentation.

Nice steady minimalist camera work allows all attention on the stars of the show. Would've liked red Echo Canyon included as per others' coverage, so you only get 9.5/10. Others' footage of snow clad mountains amazing also. Above all ... seeing is believing ... a Big Boy back in serivce thanks to UP management and steam restoration team. Amazing work, steam restoration on Company time and Company Money. Will be great if it's a financial as well as historical success. To think UP has never not had a steam 'fleet'! Hope someone produces a pro-grade dvd one day. Meanwhile there's top material on you tube, like this posting. Again great work! JohnB, Brisbane, Aust.

John, would have loved to have been able to do Echo Canyon on the return, but unfortunately I had to head home. Was raining quite heavily and fogged in when I checked it out in the morning when heading to Ogden, so took refuge in the car where I could keep the cameras dry until the train arrived.

Wouldna been nice standing next to you in Wyoming and Utah taking taking in the reality of UPs amazing restoration on a massive scale ..... Thanks for reply. Again top score due to steady camera work and coverage. (There is an unbrella to tripod stem bracket available, which works when there's minimal winds.)

A bit of prior research on Google Maps. The train did run quite late - particularly on the first day, meaning the sun had moved off the side before the train arrived. In hindsight, I probably could have fitted in more locations, but wanted to play it safe.
