The Miracle of a Locomotive

I like machines. I like steam powered machines and I loved this little glimpse into the past. This short silent film really puts the task in perspective. The engineering is remarkable. I can't imagine how long it must have taken to set up to manufacture this type of thing, but the tooling is sure big in the footage.

    Hats off to the engineers who created this machine.I also imagine how many days they had taken to make this.
