http://www.littlefish.com.au Even non rail fans will enjoy the great power of fast steam locomotives on the mainline railroad.... also for kids who love railway videos like Thomas The Tank Engine!

If you like railroad videos with songs, a super fast steam engine on a high speed train - a highballing train - even if not now the worlds fastest train, or you are a railway preservation society enthusiast who loves one of those great railway journeys on heritage railways, old steam trains or something like that most powerful steam locomotive 614 - of US railroad C&O - or you just love mainline steam or railroad videos ... great music - great listening ... I really hope you enjoy a great video mix... Youtube mix!

A list of all the clips quoted from and the channel of the people that posted the clips is given below. Please visit them and give them more hits.

Draft Notes To Complete Later: There's something special about steam trains at high speed! It's surprising how many people find them fascinating - from kids to preservation society members. For some people, they start out as children captivated by Thomas The Tank Engine - perhaps it's the Hogwarts Express for the Harry Potter fans! For others, they enjoy live steam! Steam on the main line or steam on heritage / preserved railways.

The UK is the capital of preserved main line steam. New Zealand, Germany and Poland have quite a bit. US not as much as expected. Australia, Japan and South Africa some.

A1 Tornado is an amazing project. In the UK there are great heritage railways like, The Bluebell Railway, The Mid Hants Railway, The North Yorkshire Moors Railway, The West Somerset Railway, The East Lanchashire Railway, The Great Central Railway, The Keighly And Worth Valley Railway, The Kent & East Sussex Railway, The North Norfolk Railway, The Severn Valley Railway, The South Devon Railway, The Paignton & Dartmouth Steam Railway and of course narrow gauge like The Welsh HIghland Railway, Tallyllyn Railway.

In the US - Cumbres And Toltec, Durango And Silverton etc.

Note: Great railway journeys of the world by the BBC. West Coast Railways. The Cathedrals Express. Steam Dreams.

Techno music goes really well with high speed steam. Techno music remix is what I've used here. It's a beautiful music video. Next time perhaps a dance video remix!

  • awqesome i just lovd it

  • @cheersabhishek

    Tx. Often people who aren't big fans of steam engines find them fascinating to watch when they go this fast - it's connected to fact that their power is expressed externally at speed.... the steam everywhere, the connecting rods whizzing round on the big wheels, the pitch of the whistle dropping so dramatically as they speed by .......... An electric motor in a box, may be super powerful, but there is little visual indication of it.

  • Yeah - some of them are moving really fast. Thanks.

  • Cool music... I love this sort of vid. I don't see enough of them... Josh Ferris & Ben Arantz - The Rhythm. Thanks for that info. and for the locomotive love. I love this sort of vid. I don't see enough of them.

  • @Bullsight2020

    Thanks a lot! I do love those locomotives. I made the vid more for myself than anything else. it's real fun trying to match the visuals to the music, it's phrases and moods. Once I'd heard that The Rhythm it was only a matter of time before I started work on things.
