World’s largest steam engine touring the US Midwest (https://www.up.com/heritage/steam/); en route back to Wyoming now...feels like a jet doing a really really really really slow flyover when it passes just feet away. Just incredible. Didn’t spot any Ball RR standards...

 

Cool, thanks for sharing.

This used to be a static display at the Rail Giants Museum in Pomona, California, adjacent to the LA county fair grounds. I can remember marveling at it's shear size when I was a kid. I can only imagine the thrill it must have been seeing it in action.

 

Pretty impressive bit of machinery

 

.

Made the adrenaline flow.
454 tons just makes the earth rattle.

 

Incredible. There is something fascinating amd aweinspiring about trains and especially large locomotives that is hard to explain. Great video
