It's 1 in 66 out of Bridgenorth. With 8 on(as most trains have) it can be a bit of a struggle for most locos. Some have no issues at all. Worst I've seen is Ravningham Hall that eventually needed a shove from a Western diesel. The best I've seen being from the lines resident 8f which didn't slip at all! It's fun to watch the slipping, but not so from the footplate, as everything shakes rattles & rolls. Spilling the tea is a no no!

Great video, thanks for the upload. I visit this railway every year ( i'm from Australia) My favourite spot in the world.

I never became a mechanic or an enginner, I'm not sad about that, I actually very happy working creativly from home, but I was always very impressed by machinery wether its the old tons of steel machines or the modern fast and slick scifi machinery. Trains specificly have always been a part of my early childhood. Its just impressive to look at, especialy in motion.:-D

Yeah that's fine

If you listen to the beat carefully as it moves away one is slightly stronger than the others, even the smoke puff travels a bit further out of the chimney. I bet it was that stroke that caused the slip each time.

Such a marvel of technology, it's strange to think they're now old fashioned and obsolete!

Yes: all that power only transmittable at the point of contact of the wheels with the rails (a few inches, perhaps).

Look close and you can see that the engineer (driver) knows wtf he's doing. He has sand on, but the instant the drivers free wheel he shuts the sand off, then reapplies it after gaining traction, and repeats. You NEVER dump sand WHILE the drivers are spinning, just one side of the axles might catch grip and the force differential can, and has, broke shit.

Wonder why pretty much every steam engine ive seen wheel spins yet the diesels or electrics dont suffer with that...

@JackCavie

4 жыл бұрын

Hopefully I can answer that, there's a few potential reasons, One is the driver themselves, as a Fireman I have worked with many drivers who will just try to thrash the engine, and end up slipping constantly as a result. That doesn't look like the case here though, as the chuffs were definitely nowhere near a wide open regulator. So slippery/damp rails could be the case perhaps. Another possibility is more technical; in none-engineer terms, Steam engines emit steam into the valve chest and then into the cylinders, the way the valve gear on steam engines work means that an awful lot of force is applied at once, especially when starting off. Generally a driver (from my own experience) will aim for the most power whilst retaining adhesion, and usually just go that bit too far! Diesels can also have this problem, but I imagine they are designed a different way that maybe prevents the more "all or nothing" aspect that some steam can have, or simply that Diesel drivers may generally be more gentle on the controls than some steam drivers. I'm not a diesel or electric follower myself though so I can't be certain, and I'm sure someone could probably explain it better than me. If you're not already though, I'd heavily recommend volunteering on a Heritage Railway; the insight and knowledge you gain really is something! Hope any of that helps :)

@ianfoster8908

Diesel electrics and electrics generally have series wound motors. When one wheel slips that motor turns faster increasing the back emf and reducing the field current which intern lowers the torque applied to the wheel. Hence they are to an extent self limiting. They also have slip relays that reduce the power if there is a current difference between traction motors caused by a a wheel losing grip and letting the motor accelerate. More recent DEs have traction control which compares wheel speed with ground speed this allows up to 4% slip which is the maximum traction point

Diesels and electrics can indeed do it too if the rail is slippery enough. In the days when diesel locos hauled expresses (e.g. class 47s) you would see them start very gingerly to just get the train moving gently, shut off power for a couple of seconds and then increase power steadily. May have been to avoid slipping, but I had the impression it was to avoid too much of a power surge to the motors. Whereas dmus and electrics just seemed to put the power on straight away.

That's not struggling, it's being driven badly

What a bunch of imbecilic comments. 3 cylinder locos don't suffer "silly mid-on". The loco has over 2,000hp at its disposal so a 10 coach train is a walk in the park. There is no evidence of the steam sanding being used. And if you think that's wheel spin, you should try leaving Waterloo with a 15 coach train full of people, where you were not allowed to use the sanding due to track circuitry problems. More a case of a "Muppet" for a driver, and/or a handbrake left on.
