Train GRAVEYARD | What Happens to OLD Locomotives?

I'm an older Canadian women whose family were all railway workers. I really enjoy your videos especially this one. Here in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada we have the Prairie Dog Central Railway. They run a beautiful old 4-4-0 1882 Dubs and company (Glasgow, Scotland) built for the Canadian Pacific Railway. My family had a connection to the engine as my Grandfather was a section foreman for CPR and my dad remembered the engine from his childhood. They also run an EMD GP9 diesel locomotive built in 1958 by General Motors. I love the old steam engines and have fond memories of the old diesel trains carrying grain to the northern Port of Churchill.

When I was a little stinker, my first word was CABOOSE. I have loved trains for more decades than I will write in here. So I thank you for this documentry. It did my heart good.

It is good to see some old equipment recycled. When old equipment doesn't get recycled I can only think that management does not to put money into doing the right thing. It is more important to reach short term goals and get their bonuses,

V12 productions once again delivers a cracking railfan documentary

Brilliant footage and explanation. That 4501-steam locomotive is a beauty. Great that she is preserved and in use.

Meanwhile you’ll still find many Soviet era locomotives in the former Eastern Bloc countries because they don’t believe in the throwaway culture

GP’s, Dash-8’s, High-hoods, SD’s, SW’s and so much mighty machines, I’m glad their history is is useful, even they’re gone, but they never forget of how deep dive to the Electromotive Division. It would be better if they were able perseverance, like museums, or used for excursions, shortline or other heritage railroads, or maybe on static displays on roundhouses. Love ‘em all. ❤️🕊️

Charlie, as always, the photography and commentary and research were superb. Thanks!

I can never sit still and watch a full video of anybody else's train videos on here except yours. You do a fantastic job something to do with the way you explain everything. Excellent job looking forward to new videos. Maybe do a video about Pam am railways.

Attention Saturday's market shoppers there is a bunch of very good part outs for locomotives and other parts to keep the other rolling stock moving as well

Loved this video!! Wow so cool thank you for making it! Love your work.

Nice video! You really covered a lot of topics and locations on this one. Good description of steam locomotive operations. Keep up the good work.

An absolute pleasure to watch your content mate. With a cup of coffee in hand on a sunny autumn morning here in Melbourne, Australia. Great work!

Thanks for the very enlightening video. So interesting. It is sad seeing locomotives being scrapped.

Great video Charlie. I have seen other videos with acres of dead engines, an amazing sight. I has the pleasure of a cab ride at TVRR in the 90's it's something I'll never forget, the sounds, motions and sights along the way.

Thank you V12 Productions for old memories, and some new ones, Fully enjoy your Train videos, My location is along side Main 1 North/South CSX in Smithfield, NC 1/2 mile from my house. The heavy loads every once and a while shake my concrete floor, in my home, loud horns and an occasional Horn salute from passing Mixed Manifest to coal, to tanker trains. Trains have been my hobby since I was 5 yrs old and I am 72 now. V12, thank you again for posting this video.

Very cool documentary of old equipment. I always learn something from your videos!

Very interesting, informative and enjoyable overall. I love this documentary a whole lot. Thank you, V12 Productions!

A little known fact about the CSX ET23s is that they are technically GEVOs

Great video! Keep 'em coming!
