Two Excellent B&LE Steam Era Clips

[Jon]

This excellent video was posted on the other Bessemer board, but I thought it needed to be captured here as well. I haven't determined the location of the first clip, but 2-10-4 633 is the engine featured. The second clip is clearly taken coming across Conneaut Creek southbound on the Hogback. It looks to be either 633 again in the second clip, or perhaps 639?

B&LE clips begin at 1:10 into the video.

Great catch of the Texas type in action. The first time I have seen that, looked at the video again today and the first time since Jon posted this. Notice the difference in color to Main 100 vs Main 200 on the hogback. The southbound track is almost white from the sand, while in typical fashion No. 200 the northbound track down grade in this shot is a darker brown...
