This is somewhat funny even though it was not meant to be.

The guy identifies himself as a idiot.  His lack of knowledge of railroading confirms his assessment of himself.

Never too old to have a happy childhood!

Right in there with Klinger on MASH eating a JEEP and washing it down with a little 10w30.

If you watch some of his other videos you'll find that this guy is actually quite a good mechanic, with a great 'Minnesota nice' sense of humour.  

He's just not a railfan or railroader, and many things about locomotives are not obvious to a bystander.

I'm surprised his guide didn't tell him that GM/EMD locomotive engines are 2-strokes.

BTW that's CIT Group, not CitiBank, not the same.
