I've got a lot of affection for no-frills Victorian 0-6-0 freight engines. They feel like the distilled essence of pure motive power. There are faster, flashier, and fancier designs, but they're the timeless pickup trucks of steam history.

As mentioned above, the NSW 19 Class 0-6-0s lasted from 1877 to 1972.

The L&YR livery is one of the rare instances of when painting a loco black actually makes it look nice. I also love the cream and maroon cab interior. Good on the Railway Children for making Ironclad famous. I do wish it could run in the Green Dragon livery every once in a while.

To put it out there for anyone who wants to know more about where '51456' came from, briefly the loco carried this number when being moved from the colliery it worked at to the KWVR, to transport it they put it directly onto the back of a train hauled by a now preserved 8F loco, so technically 51456 is an official number, however given its brief use the 51456 guise is more of a 'what-if'

11:04 nice reference to the strike henry, gordon, and james did because they didn't want to shunt like "common tank engines"

What you said in the video about these locos each having unique characteristics harkens back to one of my most cherished memories on a steam railway. Back in 2016, while waiting to do a footplate experience for my birthday at the East Lancs, I was talking to the head of the experience course and we were talking about the various locos on the railway and how they were to drive. The thing that always stuck out to me was how she described the 27 as "cantankerous". It's one of those stories that makes you appreciate that even though steam trains obviously aren't really alive, they are one of the closest machines to it as each one almost carries its own personality through the way it works. Makes me wonder if the other two are similar.

One of his first tasks were to take a loooong potato into a little spud...😂😂❤❤ 4:58 great video Chris keep uo with the great work

Great video Chris! The real loss was not a single L&Y HighFlyer or 4-4-0 made it into preservation. But I’m glad we have what we have that did survive. This is the first video that’s popped up on my FYP in awhile but I’m glad you brought back the longer features and didn’t leave us with nothing but the 5 min ones. Thanks again for your work, time, and effort in putting these together for our enjoyment.

I always wanted to continue SLIPs. Just that following my operation last year and the cost of living going up, regeneration has taken longer than I would have liked. Hopefully things will continue for a while, but it would all depend on the support it gets.

I'm happy that the ELR rebrands their railway to the L&YR during 1940s events and it makes sense because they own 2 L&YR engines.

James is one of my two favorite Thomas characters along with Edward. Yes, It is sad that the L&YR class 28's were scrapped, but even so, I still got L&YR class 23 and 27 in existence despite not being a proper 2-6-0 mogul, and most of all: There is an Irish inside cylindered 2-6-0 Mogel that looked like James.. RPSI's Ex-Dublin and South Eastern's class 15 and 16 numbered 461.

Ayy, the L&YR Class 23! Lovely profile!

Never has black with red lining looked so dashing! lovely work as always Chris! fantastic stuff!

Three Soul Survivors in one video! Sad that the fourth class of you talked about didn’t make it into preservation.

Now these locos are by far my favourite loco ever built and I hope to get around to visit the KWVR some day. Now I never expected that the Class 23 are saddle tank versions of the Class 25, wow that incredible fact about these two were two different versions. The two tender locos are my favourite, but I find the Class 23 saddle tank is a nice little loco that it my personal favourite and I’m glad to know the loco is coming to Didcot which is fantastic.

Looks like we’re covering all the L&YR 0-6-0s. Nice.

Recently bought a huge lot 10+ kit built OO gauge locomotives from ebay. The locomotive that caught my eye and made me bid to win was a kit built 2-4-2 L&Y Class 5. I was even more thrilled to find that it was a spectacular runner after giving it a thorough service. The L&Y locomotives really do have so much character.

I'm quite sure that the late Fred Dibnah would've certainly liked this video all about the history of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway, which was his local railway as he was being born, raised and lived in Bolton - his hometown.

Nice video! I'd love to see a video on Great Eastern 0-6-0s too. 👍🏻

One of the best SLIPs thus far! Really like the shot through the booking hall doors with the Ironclad

Nice shot at the end. The locomotives look very nice in the L&YR livery and with the door handles as such.

Took a bake potato and turn it into a spud, that did made me chuckle, awesome video on these wonderful L&Y locos

Good video bro :) I enjoyed my little cameo! I absolutely adore the A Class, such a quirky loco to work on but so much fun! Also a little cameo from "my baby" 47406 even if the evil J word was used! Superstar Little Jocko for the win ;)

British 0-6-0's, one of my favorites! It's a pity there aren't as many tender variants about in working order! :)

Great video as always 🙂

Fantastic film work Chris! Thanks for sharing! I hope you and your crew are well👍

You really knocked it out of the park this time! One of the best episodes thus far! i really loved the new music used during the "eventual withdraw and scrapping" segment. It starts off as a somber "riding into the unknown sunset" type of tune but eventually gets more hopeful as the segment about preservation begins. sorta "after each storm there are clear skies and waters" feeling.

Love it! Soooo good to see your lovely vids Dude!

Excellent video Chris !

Loved this new one. Really good start for my weekend.

It would be neat to see one in L&Y livery someday.

Another fantastic video Chris Good work ❤❤❤❤

Thanks Chris! Beautifully crafted film.

This was the best one so far, and I have watched this show for over a decade. Pls do more of these type of instalments, they absolutely rock. And keep on rocking you lovely twat 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Brilliant thanks Chris I’ve only recently started making videos myself and it’s such hard work and commitment but you must feel so rewarded with top results like that 😎

Superb work Sir ... Most enjoyable and interesting

Amazing work as always by Chris and the whole E-G Media Team! I really like this format you've used for these three sole-survivors being looked at and discussed together rather than as a short set of shorter Sole SLIPs. These engines are some I have come to be very fond of for their heritage and their representation of an often overlooked but important part of railway history in the United Kingdom. They've just got such a classic Edwardian charm about them that's hard to resist. Great work as always, can't wait to see more soon!

I think this is a great way to cover loco types where there are only really one survivor very well. A more comprehensive history in general of the railway company and the thinking of the time, the challenges faced etc. great work. 😊

i allways love every one of these videos! 🖤😊🚂👍

The lime green and plaqued cornors if the green dragon's tender made me think of a minecraft grass block for a second

What an amazing look into the humble 0-6-0 goods locomotives. Ive alwas found them more interesting than passenger locomotives as these were the work horses making the money for the railway. Its when i wish a LSWR 700 class Black Motor had survived. They looked so unique

DUDE GET THE GANG! CHRISTHEXELENT UPLOADED AGAIN!!!!

I love this series:)

I didn't expect a screw reverser on an 1870s 0-6-0. Very sophisticated for such an otherwise workmanlike engine.

A nice SLIP, covering the locomotives I'm so familiar with being on the ELR so often. this video reminds me how unique these locomotives are. It's sad enough that no other, in particular passenger tender locomotives of the L&Y are preserved. The four remaining operational engines (including the Pug) can turn their wheels on the metals they belong to happily enough.

Three soul survivors in one video! 😃 Great profile on these surviving L&Y Loco’s! 👏🏻😄Looking forward to more Steam Locos in Profile! Don’t stop being Awesome Chris! 😉👍🏻

Hope you'll be over here for SLIPS US edition soon. Big Boy 4014 will be running later on this year, and many other locomotives will be as well!

3:10 Beyer Peacock were already by then building 0-6-0 A Class (after 1924 called 19 Class) for the New South Wales Railways. First ones went into service in NSW in 1877 and weren't withdrawn until 1972.

This drops on Taskmaster return night? Yowzer!

L&Y injector overflows, at least in the case of 52322, are also under the cab floor so there is no advantage over the LNWR.

From Huddersfield myself a Class 28 was scrapped there is a famous photo of one sitting across from the station waiting on the coal tipper

I’ve heard a rumour that Hughes planned to produce a version of the Class 28 with a front pony truck, thus making it a 2-6-0, does anyone have any information on this?

On heritage lines, where the engine runs round at either end, it makes it quicker and easier to haul a demonstration goods train in both directions than shunting the brake van at both ends of the line.

I saw you when at the sheds at the kwvr just left you be thou

I needed to know why they don’t dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so that they can extend the unused abandoned underground train stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock that includes the class 313, class 314 and class 315 remix and make them all together and also redesign them an overhead line and also make them into Five cars per units and also having three Disabled Toilets on those Five cars per units A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes even Loud 8-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock, class 313, class 314, and class 315 and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into an 11 car per unit so it could have fewer doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers. A Stock Train and 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it larger and extend it to the bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Railway tunnel into a High-Speed Railway lines? The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Railway line to make it 11 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. Then put the modernised 11 car per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbished 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 47 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project if that will be OK for London Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from the Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden more Easily. Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly Line and also build brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street can they also make another brand new underground train station in Chingford and could they extend the Piccadilly Line and the DLR right up to Chingford? All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, and 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Five carriages three disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extended roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and can they order Every 67 Octagon and Every 37 Hexagon shape LNER diagram unique small no.13 and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 147MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 147MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units, can they use those class 55’s, class 44’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 18 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!!!, oh can you make all of those Coal Boxes’s 18 Tonnes for all of those 147MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!! so please make sure that the Builders can do as they are told!!!!!

Since L&YR 0-6-0's including the class 28 were shunters as well as any regular tender engines like the Flying Scottsman. I wonder what if the Irish broad gauge DSER class 15 and 16 2-6-0 moguls (like 461) were express tender engines? Then James would boast even more with his attitude. GSWR 2-6-0 Austrian Goods locomotives? To me, they were Goods Locomotives, James hates pulling goods trains despite being a mixed traffic engine.

Anyone hear screaming starting around 8:55? Thought I heard "help"

While I don't mind painting a loco that didn't make it to BR ownership in BR livery., it is utterly bizarre to me that they do so when none of the working locos are painted in the very Smart L&Y colours.

Siuu

All I hope is that someone can make a real working L&YR Class 28 replica is made by the L&YR Trust Society.

Sorry it doesn't work for you, but if you're going to discredit music being used in anything railway related, then you'd have to extend that complaint to George Auric, Maurice Jarre, Richard Rodney Bennett and anyone else who scored such well-reknowned and celebrated train films as The Titfield Thunderbolt, The Train and The First Great Train Robbery, respectively. It's always been there to add another layer for people who wouldn't otherwise care about what they're watching. Which, in the 12 years or so that I've been doing this job, it has done. And even encouraged more people into the appeal of steam traction that wouldn't otherwise come in. My apologies if it doesn't work for everyone, but if we discount music as an accompanyment to conveying emotion about machines with limited appeal, then lots of programmes risk becoming monotonous and dull in the eyes of the general public. That's why it's always been there and will likely continue. I will however take words about distraction into consideration in the future
