  • I did notice that steamtown had a shay steam engine

  • @MrSonicthehedgehog31 Yep, they do! However, the one in this video is not theirs. To my knowledge, the Shay never operated at Steamtown (Scranton or Bellows Falls).

  • @shininghappyperson7 not brought to Scranton to create jobs. And go research the 3713 yourself, I'm not answering any more silly questions.

  • @shininghappyperson7 Kid, before you start shooting your mouth off and asking ridiculous questions/making ridiculous statements, do your homework. Steamtown was created in 1986 after the Steamtown Foundation began to go under. Their mission is to tell the story of railroading in this country-live steam is only part of that equation. They have a meager budget, which has to be split everywhere-salaries, utilities bills, coal, water, maintenance, and locomotives. Steamtown was

  • @yourweathertodayHD if i am understanding what you are saying, is that because they have this extra park with a whole other fleet of locomotives that need cosmetic keep up and restoration ,and so many other buildings with bunches of people working there, that they don't have enough money to run their locomotives? that sounds right, One major reason they brought steamtown there, was to create jobs for people,correct? on a different note,do u know if steamtown sold #3713?

  • @shininghappyperson7 You have no idea. The Grand Opening had the most steam locomotives, sure. I'll give you that. Steamtown U.S.A. did not have many funds to operate their locomotives-it took them literally every resource they had to get one or two of their locomotives in steam. When a locomotive came up on inspection time, they let it sit, because they couldn't afford the repairs. Steamtown has less operating, but they have been since the park opened. You try doing that.

  • @yourweathertodayHD not really this was the only thing that really had alot of resemblance of a "steamtown" with more than one locomotive , i thought steamtown USA was better,only because they had more steam locomotives ,and they ran in some areas that locomotives in their hey-day would have run. i was exagerating but i mean nine times out of ten they are running a trip with diesels,dont get me wronge i love old diesels with great paint schemes,but i mean thats not what people are there for.

  • @shininghappyperson7 You've got to be kidding me, right?

  • @Strasburg1991 That's up to Mr. Muller.

  • @yourweathertodayHD i hope they put it back on 425 one day
