Fireman is doing a piss poor job. This would never be allowed on the B&O and PRR, the company would fine such careless firing.

all you have to do is change the coal or oil fire to atomic energy. She'll be good for 30 years before needing to change the plutonuim for the boiler. Ya! No more carbon footprint!

If this engine were running more efficiently there would be very little smoke and more carbon dioxide emissions. The efficiency of this locomotive is extremely poor because there is incomplete combustion plus sooting of the boiler tubes with resulting poor heat reclaimation from the fire - a complete waste of energy.

Well all that soot will eventually settle or come down with the rain. Dust particles play a vital part in making rain believe it or not!
Thanks for posting this video! I have visited the NRZ in 1993/94 with Super8-Movie and taking pictures in 6x6.
The only thing I need while watching this video: one zambesi beer!

Listen to that! Carbon footprint yes, but its way less harmful than what we do today.

Possibly, but the steam engine is less efficient and so as far as CO2 emissions are concerned it is probably less 'green'. And that's an awful lot of respirable dust particles ending up in the atmosphere!!!
