RESTORED in 20'000+ HRS | HEAVIEST OPERATING PREWAR STEAM LOCOMOTIVE in EUROPE - SNCF 241-A-65

The SNCF Class 241-A-65 is a legendary marvel of steam engineering — not only the largest (heaviest) still-operational prewar steam locomotive in Europe but also one of the most powerful. Built in the early 1930s and meticulously restored to running condition in Switzerland, it remains an incredibly rare and impressive sight in motion. This footage was recorded by me a week ago in Oensingen, Switzerland. SNCF Class 241-A-65 Specifications: Type: 4-8-2 “Mountain” configuration Length: Approximately 25 meters Weight: Over 200 tons (including tender) Power Output: Around 3,300 horsepower Top Speed: 110 km/h Built: Early 1930s by French State Railways (SNCF) Current Location: Full-Reuenthal Depot, Switzerland Status: Fully operational, regularly used for heritage excursions #steamlocomotive #railwayheritage #classictrains #historicsteam
