Sadly, the resolution of this film from the 1890’s-1900’s is about the same
as the average resolution of most currect videos on YouTube.

Edison would be blown away if he knew we were watching this in 2011 on a
thing called the Internet…… Great quality considering when it was
filmed … an amazing piece of history…loved it..Thanks

Most of the water pan troughs for the tenders were used in the Northeast.
There were some in other places, but mainly the N.E. Was a great concept in
its day and while it usually never did fill the tender of water, you still
had to make a stop every 90-110 miles to hard grease the bearings and oil
what ever needed it. At the same time take on coal or fuel oil. Very labor
intensive, but the scoops saved time and got them further down the line
than normal. Thank you very much for the films.

Anyone else think that being a crossing flagman would have been the best
job ever!

So hard to take seriously someone who calls people “dude”. Incidentally,
when you don’t care about a comment, the simplest thing is simply not to
respond.

How did they take water on the fly? What a wonderful historic film.

@uratrick Taking water on the fly was quite easy – there would be a long
area where a shallow trough of water ran between the rails, when the loco
passed over this location they’d lower a scoop into the trough and the
moving train would force water up the scoop and into the tender.
