Here’s footage that cuts straight to the heart of the action! See mighty steam machines pulling hard; hitting the steepest grades of the East and West. Every clip is a steam locomotive pulling hard, or with wheel slip, or with great stack talk – as she works hard on a steep grade!

Some of these clips  were seen in other Main Line Motion Picture Shows. This show was previously released under the title “Steep Steel & Slipping, Stalling Steam! (Volume 1)”. This new release has additional footage and has been digitized, upconverted, frame-by-frame stabilized and color-corrected.
