this engine must have been built late nineteenth century or somewhere in the early twentieth century,because it is huskier than earlier 4-4-0 of the mid 19th century.

Right you are. The 98 celebrated its centennial just last year

thats one great locomotive

[GreatWestern175]

Ideal american rail scene. Very well captured especially, much smoother camera work than some! I personally admire these American 4-4-0s. Very well done.

Best regards Ryan aka GreatWestern175 from the UK

GREAT VIDEO..

[railroadfan]

Great video! In fact there's only one thing I can find wrong with it -- that hideous gurgling internal combustion contraption on the back of the train. Otherwise, very nice!
