River Don Engine - Worlds most powerful steam engine still running. (Recorded in 4K)

I've filmed this in 4K 60PFS, watch it on a big monitor with good sound system so you can really "feel" the power of this thing. Goto 02:04 for the crazy fast bit ! The worlds most powerful steam engine ever built that is still in working order today.. 12000 Horse Power (8.9 MW) The River Don Engine is located in the Kelham Island Museum in Sheffield, UK I filmed this while at the Sheffield Beer and Cider festival 2019. This massive engine weighs 420 tons and stands 28 foot high, 40 foot long ! I've seen some impressive Victorian engineering in the past but this is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. The sheer power in this beast has to be seen in person. This is a stationary steam powered mill for making steel armour plate for the hulls of battleships. It is able to reverse from full speed in just 2 seconds. The rapid reverse was an essential feature of an engine used for rolling, as delays would result in cooling of the workpiece. Four identical mills were made but the other three have since been scrapped. thanks Andy
