The Everett Railroad Company revenue steam freight Sept. 18, 2021 

Unfortunately steam is too inefficient.

TVRR does occasional revenue freight runs in Georgia and in the helix track in the mountains above Ocoee and Copper Hill, TN. The sugar company in Florida runs mostly revenue (that I've seen) behind their Pacific. Look for a video on the TVRR Summerville double header freight that was run three or four years back. They were aldo capturing period footage for movies so they had antique cars and trucks ar key grade crossings like Rock Spring.

Don't forget the UP's 844 and 4014

Wilmington and Western RR serviced a brick factory at the end of their line where it tied into CSX line just beyond their shop in Marshalltown at one time. Don't know if they still do. They'd use one of their steam locomotives if they had one heated up. Not sure if they still service that brick yard or not. This was during 2002 - 2003 when I was there working for 9 months and watched them do this at that time.

Im curious why would a 4 6 be converted to 2 6 ?

Nah, the locomotive was directly built as a 2-6-0, but I can see why you would think that

@retag The only reason would be to increase the load carried by the drivers. This was done to some 2-8-0s to turn them into 0-8-0 heavy switchers.

Jason told me that the whistle is a Rizzoli/MD Whistles standard Nathan 5 chime. Thanks for watching.

@@TheCCCSTL thanks so much for the information!

Nobody uses caboose,s anymore.

@@thecarchannel4499 maybe not in real life, but how do you use an EOT device (FRED) with an old steamer that doesnt have the electricity and radio equipment to safely use the new modern technology????? The UP's steamers are too modern, im talking those built before the 1930's. Im an old geezer, dont have internet or cable, nothing too modern in my house. Saves $$$$ too!

@@paulsmith5398 Well it’s just rare now nobody really needs it anymore

@@thecarchannel4499 yes, its rare now, but i have seen recent videos of them in use, Military, high/wide loads, even moving nuclear reactors, some with 2 or more cabeese! The way i was brought up, a freight train is not complete without a caboose, its a bummer not to see them very often. On my model trains, (all scales), every freight has a caboose, just to be reminiscent.

I was just thinking that!

Indeed, that’s the old cab of 38 I believe

The railroad took an almost 2 year long hiatus due to Covid ravaging the country, but now it looks like the Everett is running full time once again

@@wolfzillaproductions4563 So as this going to be a reagular thing then?

@@GooseinTheCabooseProductions Most likely

@@wolfzillaproductions4563 Wow. That is just cool beyond words.
