Small Trainz

Bigger locomotives tend to get the most attention. However, the smaller engines out there tend to do a lot of the heavy lifting day in and out. Whether it be switching a mine, harbor, or railyard, or connecting freight and passengers with the mainline, the little engines get it done rain or shine.

The music, locomotives, and routes used can be found in the description, so please check there if you're wondering where everything came from.

THE SKRUNKLY

0:58 The song makes it sound like the 8F and the Jintys are talking to each other lmao

[lucalanciotti]

Am I the only one that thinks that this Kirby song fits soooo well with little engine like these

“Little engines can do big things.”

The section of the Jinties banking the 8F up the Lickey is probably my favorite part. The respective deep and high "wind" notes of the music made it seem like the engines were singing to each other the whole way up!

[tough]

2:17 the train in the background is the reading lines crusader, from my knowledge was the readings only steam streamliner. it ran from reading terminal to the cnj terminal in nj, which are both still around to this day

[dfw_railfanner]

As a tank engine lover I can confirm that these trains are small

[literaldirt]

unreasonably and excessively large trains when….

[backlash]

the unrecognized aesthetic of really small trains

0:41 as someone from Maine, I feel P R I D E

[CamtheTramfan]

I DIED watching these side rods match up with the music 😂😂😂😂 1:49

[cozmolikeytrainz]

I always love small trains. The C-16 is adorable.

[josephnadler]

0:13 that train is a whole vibe and a half

[guhsher]

A great video! 👍
Like how it highlights how these small, yet powerful locomotives were used for so many things. Such as banking, switching/shunting, small freights, and little passenger trains.
Narrow gauge is also quite unique in it's appearance here. :D

[SodorEngine]

This is probably the cutest little trainz video I’ve seen in a while. Little Engines can do big things!

[Danominator]

I just now realized that this is a series and I've now watched every video.
This is amazing.

[Flightman]

1:38 i love how the es2 is included. Always was a fan of Milwaukee Road electrics (i have trainz, i have that model, and i know its by PWeiser because he is my go to for electrics under PRR, New Haven, Milwaukee Road, NYC, ETC)

[asteroidrules]

When you're model railroading and want to keep your liver you learn to appreciate the small ones. Plus they're just cute little critters.

[cozmolikeytrainz]

Alternate title: this video will make a train fan happy

[michaelwheeler]

Awee, these little trains are so smol. 🥰
