We've still got a number of such businesses. Look at any large steel mill. Some of my great uncles worked at Northwestern Steel & Wire, which was a small mill as things went, but they were known for taking in steam locomotives sold for scrap, and the owner having them fixed up and used in the mill. They used steam until the owner died...in _1980._

I absolutely _love_ seeing narrow gauge tracks running in the middle of Standard or Broad gauge ones, it just feels so clever to me, and makes so much sense for space, but _yeesh,_ finding images online is oddly annoying to do. Never thought a Brewery would need little trains to move stuff around, but really should've figured :P

There are a few installations of three-rail trackage here and there. I know there's a fair bit in Switzerland where the standard gauge and metre gauge overlap. But four-rail is much more rare.

There is a 4 rail setup (so couplers are aligned for narrow gauges engines to haul normal gauge wagons) at the CFBS heritage railway in France. It is used nowadays for regular (every 4 years) massive gathering of preserved rolling stocks, both narrow (1m) and standard gauge, allowing display and running of everything on the network.

I really appreciate these industrial documentaries. Industrial engines and their infrastructure including towers, water systems etc are fascinating and don't receive enough attention

Grain Belt Beer and trains in and out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin are what bring the haulage of beer by train close to home for me. Usually, one would think a private industry would have only one, two or three engines for its own. But I find it amazing that Guinness not only had a good sized roster of narrow and broad gauge engines over time but also built and patented their own unique engine design. That's a good company. And for those out there who also enjoy maritime vessels like myself, there have been special ships and barges that have solely been used for transporting beer and wine.

Not everyone in Ireland drinks, not everyone who drinks drinks beer and not everyone who drinks stout drinks Guinness, people drink Murphys, Beamish, O’ Hara’s single stout, Porterhouse stouts, Dungarvan Blackrock Irish stout you get the picture.

Mr Geoghegan certainly was a smart guy in developing a locomotive which suited all his requirements. A brewery can be an environment with lots of dust from the barley and hops, especially in those days when most of the proces would be open and there was a lot of spillage. Now with pneumatic transport of the ingredients, covered tubs, pipelines for liquid transport and modern filling machines it is a lot cleaner

What's next a locomotive powered by beer?

My Bassett-Lowke Moguls at least run on alcohol. If you distilled beer enough to get to 95% (the highest chemically possible ABV), you could steam them on it.

This would make quite a project for a model railway

It seems even the spiral helix used by model railroaders (espcially in the US) to reach a higher second level of their layout, has a prototype!

It’s nice to know that some of these unique locomotives are preserved.

One of the tank engines (the green on pictured near the end of the vid) is at the talyllyn railway museum. I helped restore that red corris coal truck in the background, some 25 years ago when i was a young volunteer on the railway.

I think one of the gauge converter wagons can be found at the Amberley Chalk Pits museum.

When Guinness was first established in 1759 it was an ale brewery. Only started being a porter brewery in the 1790’s. The narrow gauge railway system lasted until the late 1970’s, but the broad gauge railway line to Heuston station was closed in 1965. A number of narrow gauge Guinness engines and a broad gauge engine no.3 are preserved.

They really did make an adaptor for narrow Guage to broad Guage locomotives! Astounding history. Thank you

Of all the jobs to have, driving a steam train around a brewery sound like a very fun one.

Thanks for the cool history. Gonna crack open a Guinness.

You continue to give us more festinating stories, Thank you.

Y’hear that folks? Without trains, Ireland would’ve been a lot less drunk. Also Skarloey used a haulage wagon to take standard gauge wagons to the harbor at Kirk Ronan according to the Reverend W. Awdry.

Yay, my video suggestion finally got made into a video.

Id like to see something on the Leek and Manifold railway. The narrow gauge line that pulled standard gauge trucks

One of the most interesting engines I can think of is a natural gas plant locomotive. The example in question is currently on display at Steamtown in Scranton, Pennsylvania. The example had no firebox to avoid an accidental explosion at the plant. Instead of this, pressurized steam was pumped into the locomotive periodically.

Fireless locomotives came in a range of sizes and shapes, some used compressed air (where available) but steam was often readily available as plants usually had boilers anyway

I love being Irish 😊 ☘️ but thankfully I am no longer an alcoholic 🙃

If that haulage wagon looks familiar it’s probably cause you’ve seen an edit with Talyllyn in it instead to represent the history of a certain island.

It was great seeing these at the Guinness museum!

I've been waiting for this to come up in one of your videos- I've always found the idea of Haulage wagons to be SO COOL.

I was all in for the idea of a steam locomotive powering an unpowered locomotive, but the worlds most annoying steam engine kept me hooked. Keep up the good work man.

genuinely, someone should make this, not in real life but in, say maybe Roblox or smt, or in a virtual experience, or even though I said not in real life, maybe someone could make a museum of this.great vid.

Really cool, I'm glad that there's so many pictures and that they're preserving a few of the engines!

I saw them in real life, real cuties.

These people were quite on the brink of progress. They were also one of the first to have a formal research and quality control lab. In which a guy named Gosset developed a statistical method. He was not allowed to publish it under his own name, nor refer to his employer, so he used the pseudonym 'Student'. The famous 'Student's t-test has got his name this way.

Geoghegan: "All of these engines are terrible to maintain and operate, every time we get a new one it's more trouble than the last!" Steam Engine Manufacturer: " Oh yeah? Why don't you go and make one yourself huh? If you think its so easy!" Geoghegan: "Hold my Guinness." *proceeds to make an objectively better steam engine *

These are so unique. I want to make one.

Greetings Train of Thought guy. Have you considered making a video of the Wolgan Valley Railway? The WVR was a railway to transport shale oil from the middle of nowhere in New South Wales, Australia, to not far from the middle of nowhere, also in NSW. It operated from about 1907 to 1935 and used Shay locos due to the steep grades, impossible terrain and tight curves. It is now a spectacular walking track and includes a long tunnel known for its glow worms. Might be interesting for you.

This is something that bender would be happy to work on

Excellent work Train of thought

Interesting video! Cheers!

This was quite interesting!

I like this railway

The Irish are amazing people. Steam monorail, and now a beer railway.

Nice. More interesting than Cosmeston's Quarry Railway, which is what I was thinking of watching this. Come to think of it there were a few interesting narrow gauge lines in South Wales. Cosmeston, and then there was the sand quarrying or whatever it was at Porthcawl and also the dual gauge tracks at some of the mines. There might have been a very short line on Barry Dock too but information is difficult to find so I cannot confirm it, just a picture I saw years ago of a short narrow gauge line.

Awesome

sounds like my kind of train!

Hi

We Irish are too reliant on beer, hence why our country is a mess right now.

FUN FACToid! Guinness brewery workers were not allowed to intermarry (Catholics and Protestants) until the 1980s, and the very Guinness associated with Irish heritage was actually not just a wealthy family empire but also a strategic tool to subjugate the Irish population from 1759 with alcoholism in parallel with the penal laws etc.

No price and work too much to get alcohol to get to the societies 😞 So many families, relationships and social good behavior were and are still destroyed by alcoholism and people who can't handle the consume and behavior of them self if they get alkalized... "You" should not be proud about any drinking alcohol producers in any country...

Unrelated. Why do Northern Irelandees hate Ireland so much?
