In this video, we take a look at a couple of very old steam locomotives that are all still running today. These steam locomotives were all built before the year 1900. The first is Eureka and Palisades Number 4, a small narrow gauge 4-4-0 built in 1875. It is the oldest narrow gauge steam engine of this type running in the U. S. The engine is privately owned by Las Vegas, NV resident Dan Markoff and occasionally makes public runs on tourist railroads. The second locomotive is Virginia and Truckee 22, the Inyo. This 4-4-0 was also built in 1875 and currently runs on special occasions at the Nevada State RR Museum in Carson City, Nevada. Finally, we see Denver and Rio Grande number 315, built in 1895. It is currently maintained by the Durango Railroad Historical Society in Silverton, CO

Very nice. Good video. I-m a huge fan old old trains. I have an HO and N scale set. There are trains in a game called Red dead redemption that look very similar but they didn-t get things right. The sounds, colors, speed, and more. There are no passenger cars in the online version. There are also no cabooses. It doesn-t chug along like the real thing. The wheels don-t click and squeak and the conductor doesn-t use the bell while coming or going out of the stations. It is cool that you can drive them though.

I have pictures of the second engine and tender featured at the Nevada Railroad Museum in Carson City. The Virginia Truckee tender caught my eye. The setup is the Virginia and Truckee INYO. See Wikpedia for a history and description.
Thanks for posting.

7: 26 A speedy 4-4-0! Also, nice video! I really enjoy seeing these types of trains considering I don't get to see that much. The only time I really see trains they are diesel engines.

Civil war 440-s are so elegant and quirky I like them. Reminds me of the beautiful engine known as the general and Texas. I-m biased since I live in Georgia

I saw Virginia & Truckee #22 in Vancouver, BC back in 1986 and took a photo of it. Nice to see a wood burner in action here.
