Why this hasn't exploded no ones knows. Maybe the crew was trying to burn it up, that might explain why they never shut it down?

I guess NS decided to convert some of their Dash 9s to coal. I wonder where the tender is at?

Unbelievable!! I can remember seeing similar shows with early GE's as well. Smoke belching, fire breathing, diesels.

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stop throwing more coal into the firebox; with that much coal in the fire,you'll have plenty of steam to push the driving rods back and forth. Wait a minute, thats a Diesel!?! That GE definitly thinks that it should out smoke the Alco's!!
