ya know what, just because of black smoke, etc. doesn't mean that they are the cause for global warming. I bet that all of the cars that go up Mount Washington in a day, produce more pollution that the engines that go up it all day, but you can't see the pollution that a car does.

for some reason it looks incredibly like a simulator game

I rode this a couple of years ago and it was well worth the time and money, much better than driving up (done that too). It's a great ride, noisy and it smells great, the view is awesome. The diesel was just starting out and glad we didn't get that. The ash from all that smoke lies beside the track all the way up like the engineer said in a comment here. Do it before you can't...

@denisfepasa It's in New Hampshire. Most definitely passenger only!

To the fellow who posted the safety comment - sorry, I deleted it by accident when trying to reply. Actually it's safer than it looks - like a roller coaster. The engines are routinely inspected as is the track. I'm sure liability insurance is contributing to the push to dieselize the run. AFAIK the steamers are now relegated to one run per day. Between insurance and the cost of coal, it's been a hard coupla years for steam fans.

Still viewing this video regularly, as it is so good.. There are two things that I have been wondering about these fine locos.. How is the fire-box crown kept covered by water when on the level, and why did they make the tenders so narrow?
luvmostmusic 2 years ago 3
I think the tenders are narrow for visibility on the way back down. As for the crown sheet, the boiler is kept almost full of water when the locomotive is on level track. There isn't much water over the crown sheet when it's level, but its rarely level...

Can it make it to the end of the rail on 1 fill of water?

Nope - they have to tank up about halfway up the grade.
