The most informative and enjoyable shop tour I ever witnessed. Wish I had been there.

This guy this railroad is a National Treasure.

Agree with the other posters, wonderful presentation.

I enjoyed both 1 & 2 parts immensely. Very informative. Keep the old girls going as long as possible. Thanks for explaining everything. I have learned so much.

Great Video Thanks for sharing your time and Knowledge

A lot of knowledge right there

Best 45min. Of Americana locomotives. Thanks for the great info

In this crazy world whoever came up with positive train control really hit the nail on the head

Donny 'C'......... 'The' Alco Doctor !!! all us old guys are out to pasture now, I wonder if he played his piano for the guys on the tour ? !!

Im going to double down on "Old scchool"., Things worked When you have a threesome of EMD Series running point on power and at a mid train keeping the train tight and not beating the knuckels from taking a beating All is left is to roll off this power and let the air on the main resivior build to90 psi and ready to roll out!

Love this video. I used to see, love, and even get cab rides in the 4068 when she was working the Lamoille Valley Railroad in Vermont . She is the only one of the five LVRC RS 3s that was not scrapped. I would love to hear about her overhaul and how she is running today.

Some things should be left "Old School" They were simple and worked

You can say that about a lot of things in this sterile, computerized world.

So let's recap... old school is the only school...

"Old Guys Rule"

I retired 1-4-2011 after 36 years in engine service. I ran #86 Richmond, VA to Wash. D.C. and #95 back with one of those techno turds from GE. All that tech crap, 4,200 hp to move 7 Amcans at 70mph, what a waste of money. An RS3, or RS11 could have done the same job without breaking a sweat.

Any of those RS3's have dynamic brakes?
