A fascinating look at the monsters that ruled Eastern United States for almost a generation. It opens with scenes fro Sunday River's "Baltimore and Ohio" and closes with Archie Julian's "Battle for the Blue Ridge" It features-in spectacular sync sound-the last and most efficient Main Line articulated built in America, the B&O2-8-8-4 "Yellowstone" locomotives. See the rigid frame 2-6-6-6 A single 2-6-6-6-Allegheny of the Chesapeake & Ohio- the world most powerful steam locomotive- as well as the President Class 4-6-2s on the crack B&O limiteds, "Cinncinnatian" and Washingtonian". C&O Streamlined Hudson's haul "The Sportsman" and "The George Washington". A single 2-6-6-6 westbound from Covington with 100 loaded hoppers creeps to the summit at barely 5 MPH and in contrast, fast freights race thru White Sulfur and B&O articulated pound thru Confluence and New Castle. A definitive study of these powerful articulated engines!

I find this video fascinating, especially the true sounds of the Chesapeake & Ohio's 2-6-6-6 Allegheny. Some of the music on the Norfolk and Western segment sounded more like a disco beat. I'd say in a disco rhythm; "Don't Give Up the Steam".

Originally released on VHS in 1991, this program covers a variety of Vintage Steam on the Baltimore & Ohio, Chesapeake & Ohio, & Norfolk & Western that was photographed by Mr. Fred McLeod with actual on-location sound in both Black & White & Color as well as stock footage from Guy Brant & Archie Julian used on other Sunday River titles like Baltimore & Ohio Steam from 1987, & Battle for the Blue Ridge with 1970's Disco Music being played on the N&W segment. Aside from the Non-Articulated engines with some double-headers & even pushing on the rear behind the caboose, the Articulated Locomotives seen in this title include the EM-1 2-8-8-4 Yellowstones, 2-6-6-6s with a mention of 1604 that has since been on display at the B&O Railroad Museum in Downtown Baltimore, Class A 2-6-6-4s, & Y Class 2-8-8-2s, not to mention the Experimental Engine: the Jawn Henry. Locations include Wilard Ohio, New Castle Pennsylvania, Youngstown Ohio, Connelesville, Mt.
