@@phillyfan-182 The N&W Y6b is So much better Because it’s bigger and Stronger

Shunter*

@@GNRA1GreatNorthern1470 I don’t know your nationality but in America we call shunters switchers

Isn't it obvious I'm a brit

@@GNRA1GreatNorthern1470 begging your pardon but, this is a american locomotive on a american short railroad so nowhere near the British isles so please elaborate why you felt the need to "correct" us.

It annoys me like most American terms

You can’t really blame them, it’s an N&W hooter

It’s ok I guess

@@NSandBNSFrailfanProductionsSo you can do better?

Shunter*

@@GNRA1GreatNorthern1470 They can be referred to as both

@@GNRA1GreatNorthern1470 this isn’t Britain

What lind of word is switcher, sounds weird as hell

@@GNRA1GreatNorthern1470 it's a switching locomotive, also known as a switcher... I mean you could call it a shunter I guess.

Never judge a book by its cover, it could be really really strong

Never underestimate a small engine

Yessir she does indeed! I love those old n&w hooters, especially 1218s

Same

christ how many times will you guys go "omg i thought a big loco would have this whistle"

​@@buzzytrains9037im 1 years late but N&W 1218 exists 😤😤😤😤

@@okipullupon747sp mostly irrelevant to bring up but ok

Indeed it does, I would love to see 1218 back out on the rails

@@That_Thicc_Cat the 1218 is said to be in great condition and would need very little work other than the boiler repairs to run once again under her own power

@@mikebrady8067 that’s awesome! Also I have been fortunate enough to see 1218 in person at the Virginia Museum of transportation, it was amazing!

@@That_Thicc_Cat that’s sweet.

Does anybody have any clue to the 1218‘s condition currently and is she able to run again someday?

Percy what are you talking about

@@rhettrobinson1361 The ghost train! Driver saw it last night.

@@brianfalzon6739 Where

@@rhettrobinson1361 He didn’t say, but it must’ve been on our line. He says ghost trains run as a warning to others. Oh, it makes my wheels wobble to think of it!

@@brianfalzon6739 Puh You're just a silly little engine I'm not scared

Research N&W drawing C29837 of a hooter whistle. Can be reproduced but would be expensive.

Hmm I don’t think so.

@@mattdotsonrailfanproductio266 hmm.. alright, well that's fine. Great vid :D

Whatever it was running at... It was probably down 30 psi after they got thru the crossing 🤣

I was the one driving

Probably 200 psi

17 will be completed by 2021/2022. Her new firebox was just delivered earlier this year.

Anthony Nigri the 1218 wore a n&w hooter identical to this one

Kind of

Joe Svoboda no that was actually southern 4501 I believe

No the locomotive that was used in the filming of October sky was southern 4501

Jaidyn curry Big boy 4014 thanks!

New hope valley Number 17
