Oooh! Ouch. Watching the piston rod stick and shove forward at 00:57 is cringe-worthy.

Somebody get these babies an oil can!

One of the comments below informs that the locomotives aren't being "wrecked," but are "waiting for someone rich."

The piston rod is "sticking" because the bearing is missing on the crank producing the pounding noise heard throughout the clip.
