  • ...the ladies then, may have dressed like as unto Shari-a Z of Islamic womans' clothing law.

    However, if one looks closely pne may see the girl-in-the-sweaters' nipples!!

  • ...PRIVATE ENTERPRISE = GOOD JOBS! greenweenie = Nazi oppression!!

  • ...the "...arising conflict" comes far into the future of when this particular film was made. That "conflict" comes from greenweenie Luddites: That pack of yiffer whale-humpers, who've taken the art of [nature conservation] and poisoned that noble work by politicising it to the point of them(yiffer whale-humping Luddites) parallelling some of Hitlers' Socialist(Nazi) agencies! To ALL you yiffer, whale-humping greenweenie Luddites: "My ass is to yer faces, blowing farts; Both great and terrible!"

  • What a great video !!! Colorado in my opinon is one the most beautiful places on earth !! .Been there a few times and everytime I go I do not want to leave!!

  • 1:36 - "Once again, man and steal has triumphed over nature." - LOL - Best statement ever!

  • @micahthatrocks well they brought the #4 out last weekend for a test run so you may see steam going at least part way "no water tanks remain to refill locos aside from the one at the bottom" up the mountain some time soon.

  • the cass scenic railroad is better

  • Funny how "conquering nature" is pretty much an outlawed term. Instead, were supposed to reduce our standard of living so the government can have more for itself.

  • Astonishing to consider that the same engine in this video was in service 60 years later.

  • Very interesting film; the commentary is very much 'of its time'! I wonder about that snowball fight, it looks remarkably 'staged' to me!
