An awesome walk to the city of Bamberg | Germany
Hi there,
walking is such a common thing in Germany. We walked from my parents place to the city of Bamberg along the Channel. Not sure how long the walk was but it took us about half an hour.
The walk itself is really awesome and beautiful.
Love from Germany
Nani

STEAM ADVENTURES IN THE HARZ MOUNTAINS
During my year abroad, teaching English in Germany, I decided that a visit to the Harz Mountains was a must! This is why.....
With 140km of steam powered narrow gauge railway, it is the largest network of regularly timetabled steam in Europe. With gradients of up to 1 in 25 and climbing 1125m above sea level to the top of the famous Brocken mountain, it has the highest station served by adhesion traction in Germany.
On 4th May, I travelled on the Harzquerbahn and Brockenbahn, starting at Nordhausen, in the south of the Harz region, to the top of the Brocken Mountain and back. We start our journey behind 2-10-2 Tank No.99 7245-6 which I was pleasantly surprised to see had a plate on the smokebox, commemorating 150 years of steam on the Ffestiniog Railway.
The video starts with on-train footage as we depart the request stop of Sophienhof, located in the middle of nowhere, in the direction of Benneckenstein. The commotion at the start is due to a group of drunkards who got off the train and then started to wonder as to why they had done so...As the engine struggles for grip, they shout Use sand! repeatedly, exclaiming that the driver hasn't got a clue. I think the footage proves otherwise.
At Drei Annen Hohne, the train changes direction and the engine was changed so as to ascend the Brocken forwards. From 01:45, we see 99 7238-1 tackling the relentless 1 in 30 climb which lasts for 19km. Note how the immense power of these engines causes them to slip excessively.
After reaching the summit of the Brocken, it was only a short walk down to a crossing where you could see trains thrashing up the gradient. We see 99 236, also performing a Ffestiniog tribute. Then, as I returned to the summit on foot, suddenly out of nowhere I heard another train, which was not timetabled, so I hit record. The location is less than ideal but the sounds make it worthwhile I think.
The return was with 99 7245-6 again and we join the train as it struggles for grip whilst departing Sorge (ironically a word meaning worry or trouble in German). Once Sorge is behind us, we thrash through the forests of the Harzquerbahn. The final scene is at Eisfelder Talmühle where 99 7243-1 departs for the Selketalbahn at the same time as we depart for Nordhausen.
Thanks for watching.
Double Headed QJs on SiMingYi Viaduct 2004
The clip starts wide to reveal the context of this railway engineering marvel. The SiMingYi Bridge is in the lower left quadrant of the view. At this point, the eastbound train has traversed line on the valley floor in the distance on the left, and passed over the bridge in the distance near the village of SiMingYi. We zoom in on the train revealing double headed QJs working hard upgrade. Listen as the exhaust sounds of the two locomotives go in and out of synch with occasional slipping. The road where cars are passing by marks the starting point of our hike up the mountain. As the train passes over the viaduct the smoke casts a beautiful shadow on the landscape below. The clip ends with the engines going through a cut and disappearing into SiMingYi tunnel. Hadashan Station is about one more kilometer on the other side of the mountain.
Steam in the Sierra Nevada foothills - Railtown 1897 State Historic Park
To Inspire you to take action over the closure of the state parks, and to encourage you to help by making the trip up here, this is the video of my trip to Railtown 1897 State Historic Park in Jamestown California on July 16th, 2011. Sierra #3 the Movie Queen starts the day by pulling out of the roundhouse and backing down to the Jamestown water tank for a film role. Some college students decided to film a western for production class, and they picked the right place! #3 was operated up and down the outer yard tracks until the trains pulled out at 11 A.M., the first train being fired by Sierra Railroad veteran Joe Francis, who was down from Montana state this weekend to walk down memory railroad. With the sound of Kelley's restored whistle filling the air through the day, this video is sure to become one of my best yet! Please Subscribe, Rate, and Comment!
Golden Spike National Historic Site - 2 locomotives seen in action
Golden Spike National Historic Site August 25th 2008. The Golden Spike National Historic Site is a U.S. National Historic Site located at Promontory Summit, north of the Great Salt Lake in Utah.
It commemorates the completion of the first Transcontinental Railroad where the Central Pacific Railroad and the Union Pacific Railroad met on May 10, 1869. The final joining of the rails spanning the continent was signified by the driving of a Golden spike.

NKP #765 steam locomotive whistle/stack echo in Pittsburgh
My brother and I were present for NKP #765's visits to Pittsburgh and St. Louis in 2012. This is my favorite clip from both events, due to the sound/audio of 765's whistle and stack talk echoing off of the rock cliffs beside the OC Bridge west approach (Eckert Street) in Pittsburgh on August 12, 2012. 765's stack talk is sharp due to the grade on the bridge approach.
