Thanks for another very interesting video, Tim. A pity about the steam ban, but that unusual locomotive did a good job anyway. Here in NZ, the few vintage steam railways often face bans in our (usually) dry summers. Now it seems that they may be banned permanently due to climate change and the phasing out of all carbon-producing sources. There is talk of adapting a steam loco to run on hydrogen, which would take away some of the character of it, but as long as it was still producing steam and running the loco as it was intended, that would be very acceptable, I think.

3: 57 Not hearing the familiar noise[chugga-chugga] of a --Dampfzug-- here, I almost thought this was an electric loco until I heard the whistle. Being Switzerland, I immediately go into German-Language mode, rejecting the French.

Amazing where you find class 52's. The whistle though thought of as steam will also use compressed air and many electric engines having air compressors give a 'toot- toot'.
