History Channel, I would like to ask you if you can do the whole Trains Unlimited Series because this series is important to my childhood and I would be grateful for how you brought back this series.

More episodes including new ones like on the L&N, modern day train wrecks, excursion steam locomotives, and others including the mammoth articulates like Big Boy 4014, C&O 1309, C&O 1601 and 1604, N&W 1218, and others including other locomotives and get someone like Andrew Francis to narrate or Richardson again to narrate the episodes.

Indeed

I can't think of anything that's more fascinating and so interesting than trains. The history, the ingenuity, the power; truly one of the greatest inventions man ever created.

I simply love the trains 🚂

My grandma took me from KC to Orange County, California to visit her sister. It was strange to walk out the back door and pick a dozen oranges from squeezing and glass of OJ for breakfast. Went right thru the Rocky Mountains and confusing to see a river run west then appear to run east. Miss those times!

Thank you for uploading this to KZread! There are so many of this series I've never seen before.

So glad to see this series getting an official upload.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. For finally bringing this series to YT. Now if you can add " the great ships " as well. 😁

Keep posting these, Trains Unlimited is fantastic!

I had an obsession with trains as a little kid. Someone recorded the Steam Locomotives episode of this series onto a VHS tape for me and I remember watching it alot over the years. This series certainly brings back a lot of nostalgia. I hope you post every episode at some point.

My great grandfather was a train manager at the Ladson station 30 miles from Charleston,SC.

I'd maybe watch TV if it still had this content.

When the history Channel had history

If I ever become a teacher I will let my students watch this.

Hope to see urban trains and the locomotive soon. This is amazing footage

It's amazing. Not an ancient alien in sight. Lmao.

0:21. That intro is the best! I keep replaying it, for it shows the mighty power of trains!

Dear history……. We would love if y’all kept this going unlocking a lot of core memories for us young adults

The Hot Wheels Railroad (1991)!

Living in hourse creek valley S.C. just next to the house I lived in was a dummy line. They didn't speak of this kind of rail.

GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!

I yearn for the Toy Trains episode

I live next to the track's, and I remember taking the train into New York as a kid in the 1950s!! 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Wonderful. thank you

Trains are amazing! An iron beast

good show

The Clinchfield Santa Train in 1991!

Top shelf type of video

Excellent! I loved all the great footage. By the time I took my first train, it was the mid 1970s, and Amtrak was the only type train you could pickup in Ohio. The engine cars were boring looking, and the passenger accommodations were sub-par. The seats were flimsy and poorly padded, and it felt like you were riding in an old Greyhound bus. The longer routes, didn't even have a dinning car, but instead a "vending machine" car, with terrible stale sandwiches, lousy soda pop, and the worst vending coffee. To save money I only paid to sleep in my seat, which didn't fully recline. The only saving grace was the bar car,....where riders could order mixed drinks and beer. I discovered being a little bit tipsy, helped me sleep through the bumpy ride, where I swear I could feel every railroad tie, bucking against, my lower back. The upside, was meeting interesting people, and having spirited conversations. In that era, the 1970s, meant there were college students with their folk guitars, who entertained the riders. There was not much in terms of personal entertainment devices, a few people had those tiny transistor radios, with their low fidelity speakers. I traveled alone, but made friends quickly, among the other riders, as I was also a college student. I had a couple of "small-world" revelations, and met a couple who grew up in my home town, of Cleveland, Ohio. And some of the college kids, were attending the same university, as I. It turned out to be a fun & memorable adventure. I traveled from Cleveland, Ohio, to Austin, Texas, to meet up with a girl I fancied. We met in college and were just beginning to date, when she decided to move out to Austin, Texas. We were pen pals for a while afterwords. I eventually found my true love in Columbus, Ohio and I've been with that gal, going on 40 years. We're both 70, presently.

It's a shame we don't travel by rail anymore

If I see one of those big steam trains here in America, like the 4014 Big Boy, I might just yell "ULTIMATE POWER".

That first train that ran is S.C. ran through the town I grew up in. The first mill in Bath, S.C. was in 1711. Wow. It's all gone now. Running out all the people of the valley. But one day it will be a tourist destination. The people who bilt it will be forgotten. Sad.

I remember this tv show at time as well

Love My 🚉 's.

This was great, and I'd like to see more of these. Couple of points. There is still at least one railroad using steam to haul revenue freight, the Strasberg Railroad in Pennsylvania. It might be a tourist train (and a great one!), but they also haul some freight. Second point, they made a very common mistake about Raymond Lowey, everyone "knows" he designed the Coke bottle, but that is wrong, he did not. What he did design were the Coke dispensers seen at soda fountains for decades.

8:22 this is the American 440 every railroad museum in this nation has one and six are operational.

Would i see Episode 2 Steam Trains.

No ancient aliens in this video! 😎

This series ended to soon there is so much more to cover on railroads. If the full series is uploaded we can finally see episodes never seen before. Now we can see better quality footage of this series instead of poor quality recordings from the tv uploads.

🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁 THE LION WAS HERE 🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁 No. 959

So, not to be that guy, but they missed a few things first off, bit miffed they didnt mention the DMIR Yellowstone Locomotives. The gargantuan behemoths that pull iron ore from Northern Minnesota to the docks along the north shore of lake superior, were it was carried by freighters to the steel mills of Pittsburg, later to go to Detroit to become automobiles. These monsters could outpull even a Big Boy locomotive. Also, steam is still in use today. The Cumbre's and Toltec Railroad still runs 3' Narrow Gauge locomotives, something they didnt even mention was the narrow gauge, and they still haul freight over railways that are almost 200 years old. They were running these trains all the way back in the 1860s

38:29 2-6-6-6 Allegheny Locomotive

Narrated by Kevin Michael Richardson. You can hear him voice many a character on Seth MacFarlane cartoon series' such as Family Guy, The Cleveland Show, American Dad and others. This show is from 1997 (according to the credits).

I actually have been to dc union station in 2003

Sometime the railroads got chemical deliveries and dinner plates confused. Look up PBB in Michigan.

The short road I grew up on is a very old part of 1 one hwy.

At 38:15, they identify an Allegheny locomotive as a 4-6-6-6 (that wheel arrangement never existed). An Allegheny was a 2-6-6-6.

The museum in Charleston, SC has the charter for the South Carolina canal and railway. That is the company who own the Best friend of Charleston. The charter would make B&O the second oldest railroad. Plus this railway had the longest track by 1833.

Like this comment if you like Trains as I do!

It's not the "only" way to see the country by rail.

Title: american railroads Thumbnail: British steam engine

Missing from this video is the electric locomotive, which gets its power from either overhead wires or from third rail electric power. The Pennsylvania Railroad used electric locomotives between Washington, D.C, and Boston, MA, mostly from overhead electric cables. Part of the reason is that the tunnels in the NYC area did not have the ventilation to clear smoke emitting from steam or diesel engines. Thus, all trains had to have electric locomotives to service Penn Station. Too bad that this part of railroad history is not in this video!

ehhhh get Lloyd Sherr to do this!

Yeah let me get that four fo four train with fries on the side

Play trouble by airplane never get to see the beautiful country

Ft 103 was Southern railway first to buy this locomotive and Santa Fe was not the first but Southern railway Nctm has the proof.

Most people in America don't travel by rail it's a shame they use their rail system in Europe and we don't

incorrect.

You do know that railroads came from Britain.
