Once in a life time! Classic SP 4449 departs Michigan City, IN.by NicTrain352,675 views
Thanks for all your great videos. This video has been a favorite of our family (and specifically, our 2 1/2 year old daughter) for many months. One question - in the third scene, beginning at 2:16, the train passes under something. (Looks designed to load it up?) What is that structure?

Thats is a coaling tower, it was used back in the steam days to load coal into the coal tenders of the steam engines quickly and efficiently on the main line without having them to uncouple from their train and head into a yard. The loading track where the hoppers full of coal would go is know gone from this site but it would have been were that little concrete shed is on the right hand side of the tower. Believe it or not these have outlasted a lot of the old relics and there are plenty around.

NICE 10 stars for sure. i wonder tho since steamers arent used anymore ( mostly) where would one fill this up at?

They usually have mobile units that travel on the HWY to help service the steam engines, this one is and oil burning steam engine, and it is fueled by a normal oil tanker with a fuel pump, coal burners are a little more complicated and are "filled up" by dump trucks full of coal and front end loaders scooping and dumping that coal into the tender, the water is usually always provided by local fire departments.
