Steam Train Doubleheaders

Steam locomotives are a rare sight in the 21st Century, but it is even more unusual to see two of them running together! In this video, we will see several different trains being pulled by two steam locomotives. We will visit several different railroads to see locomotives big and small as they work together to pull trains down the line. All aboard!

Who else is here because of a child wanting to see trains?

I can watch steam locomotives all day. They're so beautiful.

I’ve adored steam trains since I was little. In fact I got a new train set every Xmas because the previous year’s was worn out from the amount of fun I’d had with it. I’m female by the way. A few years back I was the proud owner of 120 acres in country Australia. It was very frustrating that I couldn’t afford to put a train track around it, plus the cost of the train itself. I had to make do with the roos & the wild deer as entertainment instead. Sometimes when I’m reminiscing I realise what a great life I’ve lived. & watching these marvellous videos makes me happy. Very happy.

Modern trains are press a button and the engine is ignited, never knew LOCOMOTIVE TRAINS were that much of steam carriers, plus you have to fill the water chamber fully, or create a fire in one of the furnaces. Just the locomotive horn sound really shows how people in the older centuries were geniuses to build these steam machines. Liked your video, amazing

The beauty of pure mechanical energy no combustion engine could even compare to such beauty

This is absolutely beautifully composed. Had my 14 month old grandson (great grandson of train buff and writer Edgar Mead) mesmerized. It's so well done. Thank you for sharing!

Me and my grandson play train videos when we play with our old lionel train set. We get real sounds, and the phone sits as a bill board in our little town.
I'm glad I found this, I have some train rides I need to take.

Steam locomotives are beautiful, living creatures. You can't convince me otherwise.

Showed this to my 2-year-old nephew and it was an instant hit. Lil' guy loves his trains and cars.

Thank you so much. Mike. I'm 81 and grew up with trains going beside my grandparents as rents farm. The wooden suto bridge was beside their driveway. I wouldvrun m out v when I heard the train chugging up the Streep hill.the bridge seemed 100 ft high and conductors would wave and blow the steam whistle for me. Thank you so much. You made an old lady so happy. I sh a ll watch it often.

Electric trains might be faster, but steam trains are the best!

When I took my son on a steam train when he was one year old he was obsessed with how the wheels ran on the tracks. I knew that he had "clicked" and was a train fan. He's seven now and is completley in love with steam trains and watches as many of your videos as he can. Thanks so much Mike ❤️

Sure diesels look great with double headers

But steam locomotives are a BIG difference.

I really want to re-live those steam beast times and see one by myself

[greglewis]

At one time steam trains were the backbone of America, it's good to see they can still roam the country side!🙂
