I have a 3MT that is 60 years older than 82045. It’s Tri-ang OO gauge. It’s literally done a million miles, and after a full service and new pickup plate it runs lovely. Anyway, 80245 inspired me to buy a new Bachmann 3MT in BR Green! Let’s hope it runs for 60 years like the Tri-ang. 😃

Probably not, good luck with the Bachmann 😃

👍 Brought back a happy memory of watching a 3MT having its fire cleaned at Barmouth at night, viewed from the footbridge prior to the run back to Machynlleth. I can see it now in my mind’s eye. It’s funny what gets remembered and what vanishes altogether…

That wheel drop looks amazing. Well done to all involved with this. I enjoyed my little tour of the "0-6-0" loco on its piece of track in late 2018 with Chris P.

Can't wait to see 82045 up and running also can't wait to see Hagley Hall running on the Railway and I can't wait to be a volunteer at the Severn Valley Railway

The pony trucks are interesting and complex the only time have seen some up close and personal are on my model trains 😃 excellent progress well done to all involved 👍

Fantastic achievement to become a full rolling chassis.. the last 3MT I saw was a fresh arrival at Cashmores yard in Newport for scrapping..

This is a great step forward, a wonderful project. It's a cute looking little engine, great work being done here lads.

Great work and all credit to the dedication of all those involved in the project. I always lamented the fact that not one made it into preservation as my first train set was the Tri-ang 82004 in lined black with a bogie bolster, bogie well wagon and a U.D. milk tank plus brake van in 1958. What an odd combination of stock for this loco! I also recall seeing these locos on the Cambrian line on local passenger and the Pwllheli portion of the Cambrian Coast Express circa 1963-4 whilst holidaying in Criccieth so fantastic to see one emerging again.

Congratulations on making this big step! It’s always exciting to see new build steam, and you guys are getting pretty close to finishing! Keep up the good work!

Do you think you can do a video explaining how the pony truck works, specifically in the 2 wheel application? I'm struggling to understand it based on the words of different articles and there aren't any videos on it

I was very disappointed that none of these smaller British Railways locomotives were ever preserved, lacking the glamor of the big steam locomotives I suppose. I'm now following the new construction of this class 3 tank locomotive with great interest. I have always liked the balanced look of them, so about 25 years ago I had a 4 mm scale model of locomotive 82016 constructed for me for my model railway, in BR black livery as its condition when allocated to the Southern Region.

Most of these went to South Wales Wales scrapyards. Like Cashmores, Newport, Birds, Buttygeigs and some to Cohens, Kettering. All these yards did a great job slicing them for scrap. Cashmores had limited storage and usually did a fine job cutting the locos soon after they arrived. Non went to Woodhams at Barry, so that meant non survived very long.

If it had gone to Barry, Woodhams were such muppets, it would have probably hung around rusting for decades! I'm surprised you like the look of these. Other standards looked more modern, and this looks cobbled together to me, especially the coal bunker.

SteamlocoScrapper : I've always admired the look of them. As you know they are very similar in appearance to the LMS Ivatt class 2 2-6-2 tank engine. if it is possible for a main line steam engine, I think that they look both cute and functional at the same time, and that is why I had a model of one of them made for me, long before the Bachmann model make its debut. I have photos of them on the empty Fawley Esso oil trains and ecs workings in and out of Waterloo.

There is/was? a project on the Bluebell Railway to construct a ‘new’ build 2mt 2-6-2 tank although in effect it was a partial rebuild as they were using many parts from 2mt 2-6-0 78059. I’m not sure if the project has stalled or whether it’s still ongoing? In any case there are 3 survivors from the 2mt Mogul class 78018/78019 on GCR and 78022 on KWVR.

So, were is the lateral movement on the truck for curves etc..is it built into the truck itself...?

Was the mismatch in buffer height between the gronk and 3MT due to the latter riding high without the spring-compressing boiler mass, or are they genuinely different?

Yes, Cashmores did some stirling work chopping these up. Once they got in that yard they were a nicely smoking pile of junk in a couple of days. Unlike those muppets at Barry who left them lying around for decades!
