What a cool video. Trains in general and that beast in particular are so friggin' awesome. Everywhere you look is a cool invention. The timing of the drivetrain linkage, and the interaction of the steam valve and the piston is genius and so fascinating to watch.
I think if I heard right that the BB pulls the equivalent of 4 modern diesel-electrics?
