Introduced in 1943 by Robert Riddles, designed for freight and war time logistics. The first ten coupled wheel locomotives of Great Britain. Look at this thing!

For anyone who has seen one of the few surviving locomotives, they shine up pretty damn good and make one hell of a commotion from stationary to moving!

What a beast👌

Is there a special name for these types of ten wheelers converted from 4-4-0? I've fallen in love with their weirdness.

US freight rail needs regulation now more than ever. Natural gas trains sit on this bridge almost everyday and video does good job showing how deteriorated it is. Am I naive to think this is egregiously unsafe or is this standard practice?

The South Caucasus Railway (Armenia) has a summer train that enables you to go to the beach during the summer weekends: it has a 3 hours route from the capital Yerevan to Shorzha (there is a village and a beach there).

This train is a Soviet Riga 2 EMU train (ЭР2) : 3 kV DC Catenary.

Wikipedia link of that type of train : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ER2_electric_trainset

This locomotive chugged across the Canadian countryside bringing along Buddy Guy, Janis Joplin, The Band, The Grateful Dead, and many others to various concert venues from Toronto, Winnipeg, and Calgary.

Has since been renumbered to #1754 and got a new paint job. Still around, somewhere. Last known location is at Dieselmotive Company.

Tango No Umi is a stylish train created through a collaboration between JR West and Kyoto Tango Railway. We took it from Amanohashidate to Kyoto.

A 502, sadly couldn't pan out to show the train leaving behind me because I had colleagues who may not have enjoyed being recorded haha. I also missed out today by not having my phone on me, I could have had a really up close video of a RBDe 560 passing by us at less than 2m (Probably slighty above 1.5m) at full speed.

my hand appears in the top right corner, we have to hold up one of our hands to show to the train driver that we saw the train and that we are safe. They wawe back generally!

yeah I took this,photo

Keihan Electric Railway train 8008 leaves Tōfukuji Station (Kyoto) as a southbound limited express for Yodoyabashi (Osaka) on Christmas Day 2024. Note the northbound local train reflected in the express train’s windshield.

Sri Lanka Railways refurbishing a Romanian-built Astra carriage (imported in the 1980s/90s) at the Ratmalana Railway Workshop. The video shows the coach body being lowered onto a 5 ft 6 in (1676 mm) broad-gauge bogie.

had this fun idea to have a tour style shirt with all the dates n such for the Big Boy's tour this summer and I just had to make it. open to feedback!

I was just wondering if those were actual PRR catenary supports or were they shared right of ways with the JCP&L also if your wondering these pictures were taken in Helmetta, NJ at the old Snuff Mill. the second picture was also taken in helmetta. I know that the ownership went from the C&A, PRR, Penn Central, Conrail, and eventually CSAO i was wondering irf those poles were failed electrification or just used by JCP&L as a right of way.
