Sao Domingos, a little O&K - Lawrie Goes Loco Episode 8.
Hello everyone!
It's time for another Lawrie Goes Loco! This month we're returning to the Great Bush Railway at Tinkers Park and have a look at 'Sao Domingos' , an Orenstein & Koppel 2 foot gauge locomotive.
If you like what you've seen and want more information on the Great Bush Railway - or you're interested in joining the society, have a look at their website:
www.tinkerspar...
A video featuring:
Lawrie - Presenter. Very much in love with O&Ks
Ben - Cameraman. Also very taken with O&Ks
Kindred - Fireman and secondary Cameraman. Also likes the O&K
Note: For the sequence when Lawrie is speaking to the camera, there are no members of the public on board the train - just members of the society.
A video edited by Lawrie.

I am from Pedorido, Portugal. My father and both of my grandparents worked in the mines, which closed in 1991. There were 5 of those locomotives, and one of tem is still on display on the town hall, although not working. João Moutinho also lives here and his house is right where the mines used to be.
not being able to whistle...good lord where's the fun in that? that like...most of the point of having a steam engine! Great video and great series by the way. just stumbled across it and I'm hooked to be honest!

It's most disappointing. We couldn't use the whistle except for emergencies at the Mid Suffolk Light Railway for quite some time. The bark of the exhaust more than makes up for it though!. Thank you, really glad you're enjoying what we do! The way the railway works its not particularly dangerous, you can hear the Loco coming and the crossings are all manned.

Koppels are such clean looking things. Seems like you had a lot of fun with this one! The Germans really were clever about the ergonomics of this thing with that slick toolbox, that firedoor, and some very well laid out controls. That pump is really cool!

I did once ride a not-quite O&K at the Talyllyn Railway ('Douglas') - It was a pretty lively ride as you mentioned with Ming, though it was running at a pretty hot pace for something with tiny wheels and it shook a fair amount, which just made it a more fun ride.
Cute little steamer, I love steam locomotives, my all-time favorite is the Union Pacific Big Boy 4-88-4 articulated, designed for use hauling freight over the Rocky Mountains in the mid-west here in the USA. Diesel-electric locos are easier to maintain and run, but there's nothing like the sound of steamer coming at you.

Great video lawrie. I was wondering , do you know about the great cockcrow railway? It's a 7.25 inch gauge rapresentation if a main line railway. It's situated near chertsy (in Surrey ) and we open to the public every Sunday from 13.00 to 16.30. The railway closes for maintenance work after Halloween and reopens in may. We mostly run live steam locomotive but we also have some diesels ( which are actually electric except the class 55 deltic which is powered by a petrol engine.) I'm a volunteer there so if you came to visit we'll might meet 😀
That makes a great sound. Makes it sound much bigger than it actually is.

Honestly, I don't really call them "design flaws" I prefer to call them "features", because they don't really take away from the train, more so add to it! That's one of the reasons I like engines like Ming, because they have their own little quirks and features, and they just make Ming who she is.

My museum has quite an interesting little narrow gauge locomotive. Ex-Defiance Coal Company N°1, a 1921 HK Porter 0-4-0 built to 40-inch narrow gauge, it originally ran on a line roughly 1½ miles from the DCC's two mines to the coal tipple, located in Mentmore, New Mexico. After the mine shut down, a doctor from upstate New York bought it and displayed it at the legendary Rail City, the first operating steam railway museum in the United States. After the doctor passed away, the engine traded hands again, and I believe it was then owned by Mr. Roy Dunwell, whom the engine is named after now. Mr. Dunwell restored the engine to operational condition, and built a special flatbed truck trailer with rollers, so the engine can be fired up and run. It now is owned by the Railroad Museum of Long Island, of which I am a member, and as of this year, it's back to operation once again. I'm officially part of the Steam Team, and as such, I get to operate the little engine when we fire it up. Here is a link of the little engine working: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ooeGqLKCY8aWptY.html I do strongly suggest coming by and checking it out, it's a really nice loco.

How much torque does it make that’s the question
Those Orenstein&Koppel locomotives are quite common on 2ft/600 mm gauge all around the world. The works produced thousands of them from 10-70 HP size. Unfortunatly this one was quite a lot modified to British style features, that spoil the design a bit. The original lever hand brake is much better and faster to use, the new boiler has a different design with this strange long water gauge glasses and the kind of small aditional dome in the cab. Original fitted with 2 Strube suction injectors and swivel windows in the cab. The 2-step valve regulator seems to have some issue, maybe the stoke of the small relief valve is too big, so the main valve starts "jumping". The safety valves are not orginal, but from a ARN. JUNG built loco. Nevertheless it is a great video, well done Lawrie!

In spite of a few areas that I would like restored, it is a beautiful locomotive! She's fit for the Skarloey Railway on Sodor! Also, your fireman is named James! Just like a rather arrogant engine we all know!

1:48 As a expert on portuguese, I can say that you have pronunciated the word "Pejao" wrong. It's actually pronunciated as "Feijão". Nice video by the way!

Do you need some kind of license to drive those locos or can you just do it like that on the private railways?

Every railway has its own internal examination. I'm a driver at four different railways, so other railways will take those qualifications on board.
