Maybe you all have seen these videos before.  The acting is pretty wooden but the mid 1950s end of the steam era footage is beyond priceless.  I especially like the roundhouse scenes, with the low whistle moan echoing inside.

The link is to one video, the rest are indicated below.  About an hour and a half of sheer joy for us steam fans.  The whole scene is achingly familiar for those my age (late 60s). I remember it all.  And still miss  it.
