I’d just like to say thank you for wonderful collection of videos of some of our greatest locos in our most beautiful countryside. My favourite? The king (?) crossing the viaduct with the river boat passing underneath. Simply stunning. Thanks so much for this. Thoroughly enjoyed in its entirety.

Many thanks Liam, it would be nice to see bit more variety in 2016 but the trouble is we look at it from the linesiders point of view. At the end of the day, we don't matter and I think we are lucky to have what we do after such a difficult year for steam

I might be biased but to me the 1st Earl shot got it by a whisker, loved the rest well done and you have earned a Very Happy Christmas from OZ

I have a small hornby collection of locos Flying Scotsman being the best all unused on display .

What's the most likely thing to go wrong when a steam loco tries to maintain those sort of speeds for a prolonged period?

@acw71000

7 жыл бұрын

I would suspect a hot axle box would be one of the most common things to go wrong

@markturner4219

5 жыл бұрын

Not tries, but does maintain those sorts of speeds. They are designed for those speeds (and faster) so nothing is expected to go wrong and rarely does with correct maintenance. Agree, if there should be a rare breakdown related to speed an over heated axle bearing due to a lubrication failure is the most likely.

@ollylewin

I remember my old man saying to me that steam locos were expected to do 80mph all day every day. So they must be built to do it.

Nice video. Show the speed of the train please .

Why diesel on some and not others?

@acw71000

4 жыл бұрын

Various reasons, diesels help with shunting at certain locations and in times of fire risk can be attached to give some power to the steam loco. They can also provide heat to the train if there is no steam heating
