Thanks for posting. Remarkable! Wonder if, or where, steam locomotives might still be in work-a-day service elsewhere on this planet? Maybe Africa?

Coal mines in China.
Maybe Africa?
Nope.
I like how they skidded the train to a stop 3:30 in.

They must use replacement tires quite often if they operate like that on a regular basis.
Mark Felton Productions is one of my favorite channels on YouTube.
He has really interesting videos and when I saw this one, I got very happy: WWII History and Trains? Yes please!

Good Lord! That is the worst example of improper train handling I have ever seen!
There are now flat spots on those drivers.
Great video. Then again I've got a few Lionel engines that are that old that still can do the job
That is wild!
