Tribute to 7 of The Most Beautiful Steam Locomotives in the World

[7822welshsteam]

Very nice engines but it should really say America instead of the World. There are some superb looking steamers in the UK like Duchess of Sutherland, Dominion of New Zealand etc. 

[joeyoung19475]

what about the Pere Marquette?

[ThomasRivette]

I don't have any photos of her, sorry.

[Vote4Spinosaurus]

I always want to get mad because they dont use steam any more

[Dinosorable]

I think Cab Forwards look bazzare.

Whats the name of the music?

[nkproad777]

Whats the name of the music?

[ThomasRivette]

@nkproad777 One Day, from Pirates of the Caribbean 3

Oops yeah they still are pretty though I guess I'm used to seeing non articulated locmotives because I have only seen 2 articulated locmotives in person: N&W 2050 and this up big boy preserved at the national railroad museum in green bay. Also, it's okay if the images of the trains weren't taken by you because you can always google images for some of the locomotives, as long as the images aren't copyright protected. And 1 more thing, you should get some pictures of the inyo under steam.

I think that frisco 1630 is more beautiful than the cab forward or the 3985 so it should be on the list instead of 3985 or the cab forward.

[ThomasRivette]

Ok. 2 things I gotta tell you. 1: I don't have any pictures of Frisco 1630. 2: 3985 and 4294 are beautiful.

[IraDeathViper]

@ThomasRivette i think frisco 1522 should be in there

[ThomasRivette]

I don't have any photos of her, sorry.

[09JDCTrainMan]

Between the 7 beauties, 4449 is my no.1, she is also one of my favorite steam locomotives.

[Kahless02]

I wish they'd restore 4294 to running condition. she's the last of her kind anywhere. Not to mention poor 4460. anyone know what's going on with the last GS-6?

There seems to be a bit of bias here, how come a tribute to '7 of the most Beautiful Steam Locos in the World' does not include any from other countries apart from the US. Have you never seen some of the stunning locos from the rest of the world, or does you world stop at the Atlantic and Pacific coasts?

[ThomasRivette]

These are the 7 that I've seen so far.

[WilbertVereAwdry]

beautiful, simply beautiful.

[Jared1452]

You forgot ATSF 3751.

[ThomasRivette]

Because all pictures were taken by me, so I'm sorry but I don't have any pictures of 3751 : (

[Jared1452]

lol Not a problem. :).

[RandomExecutive]

I am a great fan of steam locomotives. The pictures and the music worked brilliantly together. Well done! I don't think that the Union Pacific 844 is quite the best looking train in the world... but I completely agree with the others!

[Jemalacane]

@RandomExecutive 844 is a beautiful locomotive.

[JaakkoAA]

My dad mght like this. He is into steam locomotives.

[ThomasRivette]

Good for him, you gotta love these chicks.

[Darwinpasta]

Gotta love old steam engines. That 4-6-6-4... crazy huge.

[ThomasRivette]

That was UP 3985 "The Challenger"!!!!

[Barricade360]

@Darwinpasta and luckily for us 3985 is still running
