Live Steam in 1968 and 1969

In 1968 and 1969, I was beginning to build a live steam locomotive and cars. In those days, ready-to-run locomotives and cars were not readily as they are today. Almost all locomotives and cars were constructed by their owners. They either made or purchased castings, machined them, and fabricated the other parts. I visited other live steamers whenever I could to learn how they built the things they did and in some cases to enjoy running them. Many long-lasting friendships were developed in the process, and it continues today. This video is made from 8mm home movies (sorry, no sound) and showcases some early live steamers' efforts. Constructing a live steam locomotive is typically a long term activity, but the satisfaction of having and operating a machine built "from the ground up" is most satisfying.
