Great video, one of the best on youtube! I would recommend dropping your frame rate to to 24fps and your shutter speed to 1/50s to get a more natural motion
@DRGW3188 ай бұрын
24fps is nice, but it's just not for me. Even 30 looks a bit garbage with this particular video camera. Thanks for the compliment!

Did #480 borrow 2102s whistles because it sounded like a reading 3 chime

It's a Reading 6 chime, owned by a D&S employee.

Where are the old WPYR diesels?

They stopped running them for the season a couple weeks before I was there.

The D&S bought 4 of the 6 DL-535 C-truck diesels that were deemed surplus by the WP&Y. One is set aside to use for parts, and the other three are in the yard in Durango. Though just bought for yard and miscellaneous work on the road, the P.R. dept on the railroad noticed they were much cheaper to run than the steamers, and so got the road to use them for pulling the 8:15 train to Silverton, and gave a $10 per ticket discount to offset the lesser cost of operation. For a 4-person family (man, wife, 2 kids) that's a savings of $40, which can be a real help to those on a budget. The D&S ran 2 of them on a rotating basis back-to-back for daily excursion trips to Silverton all summer with great success, not the least of which was using their dynamic breaking on downhill grades. They were repainted mustard yellow lower halves and burgundy upper halves, which are the respective colors of the road's passenger cars. The WP&Y still has the final 2 DL-535s and there are rumors the D&S "may" be in negotiations to buy them too. Or not. After some teething problems were worked out and some repairs made to the traction motors and gearboxes, the diesels have been good additions to the operations. One thing for sure, they're used for snow plows in the snow season. If they can push snow in the Yukon, pushing snow in Colorado is not that tough an assignment for them. There are some D&S-themed videos on KZread that feature the DL-535s, and they're shown to good effect. One thing: as used by the WP&Y, the diesels had 5-trrumpet horns, and this has been reduced by the D&S to three.

Great to see these guys have so much working rolling stock. Nothing sadder than going somewhere and seeing broken bits of trains lying around.

It truly is amazing how much D&RGW equipment survived. Between the C&TSRR and the Durango & Silverton, we have several working examples of D&RGW narrow-gauge steam as well as preserved examples on static display and scores of rolling stock, not to mention several miles of track to ride.

Does anybody know what is the meaning behind where it sounds like there’s two shotgun blast and two reports from the Whistle right after what that means?
@DRGW3189 ай бұрын
Those were torpedoes, a railroad signaling device which is basically gunpowder wrapped in heavy paper with metal clips attached. These were attached to the rail and would explode when a train ran over them. They were used to warn a crew of a train or other obstruction ahead. The crew would typically answer with two short blasts of the whistle, a signal of acknowledgement.

Truly superb camera work including getting into rarely seen off the beaten track locations. Excellent variety and thoughtful camera angles capture the equipment and great scenery beautifully. Is there anything more beautiful than a K-36 whistle? Knowing the terrain and "roads", hard to believe you got into so many challenging locations chasing the same train! Look forward to the rest of the series. Jeff Otto

Boa noite, eu tenho uma curiosidade em saber sobre esses trens passageiros quando está chovendo com vento, parece que eles não são fechados? Não tem vidros como janelas?
