Thanks for the upload of this and other steam train/crane videos, OK?

I am into big stuff and this fits the bill perfectly.

Take care,

@Yzerfan55 They fire it up (well, tap into the Torch Lake's steam) for the Day out with Thomas weekend. They never ran it up until a few years ago and last year was the first year they ran it on steam since they operated it off of D&M 0-8-0 #8

That is so cool! Must have been awesome to see one of those in action! I wish we had something like that here in the San Francisco Bay Area!
