Is cochroach technicalogicaly impaired? Modern diesel locomotives like General Electrics are now more effecient than ever and can move tons more than the old steamers! I'm a railfan of both and a model railroader in the diesel era of 1980'1990's. Why do you think the trucking industry uses rail? Price of feul is one. Next time Roach do ya homework!
@rgvrrm Hello, I just wanted to let you know this before a large battle in the comments start. Can you please block Cockroach2008 and remove his comments? As you can see, he likes to start battles with railfans over steam preservation, and he is making it hard for us to enjoy steam locomotive videos.
@ble643 Correct! One could, but it is not cost efficient. Maintenance on the motive equipment & the trackway to support steam locomotives is VERY COSTLY! These expensive teakettles are never comng back! Good riddance!
Junk all the remaining steam locomotives! Cut them apart & melt them!
Thank you for the EXTREMELY FLATTERING compliment! I SINCERELY appreciate it!
reminds me of the time we moved the General II at SERM. Only thing is she's a 4-4-0 and we had to move the tender and engine seperately. Too bad our drawbar got crushed when we moved the engine off but other than that it wasn't a bad move.
look at that little beut we had one at our local nhr site it tacoma wa at pt defiance park at camp 6 too bad the owner didn't want to give it to the logging museum
Very interesting. I hope to come out to the museum to see this loco sometime. It looks like a real gem.

This thing should have been junked 65 years ago. It is nice to know it is never going to run again & will be reduced to a pile of rust!
Junk the steam locomotive!
