This Marshall Britannia 4nhp Portable is Trev's first ever steam engine experience! - LMM drives 29

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Hello everyone,
You may have guessed by now, but Lawrie is quite a big fan of old machines, especially of steam engines. The other members of LMM, not so much.
So when the the team were offered the chance to come film with a Portable, Lawrie jumped on the opportunity, but when it came to his attention that Trev has never even been near a steam engine, he vowed to correct the situation.
So just what will Trev think of his first experience with a steam engine, and join Lawrie operating live steam for the first time in months.
A massive thank you to the owner and his son for inviting us down!
A video featuring:
Lawrie - Presenter, excited to be around steam!
Trev - Co Presenter, and cameraman, somewhat confused by steam.
A video edited by Lawrie

    Massive props to the owner for choosing to restore it as close as possible to an original spec he could have very quickly decided to put an oil or gas burner and run it off that if he wanted but instead they stuck with firewood which is very lovely. If I could I'd love to have a modernised steam engine built from scratch with a steam generator instead of a boiler (like the Doble and White Steam cars) so you get the same crazy power, and functionally it'd be identical while getting to make steam in under 20min.

    excellent video with a piece of history and a dose of humour. My Dad would have loved your videos and You Tube. Sadly he's been gone many a year. He was a train enthusiast. Spent hours at Snowhill station as a kid (1920's) and often ate eggs from the shovel with the fireman and driver. I just watched one of your model railway videos. Dad had a super layout with 2 joining garden sheds. He had Albert Hall, Winston Churchill as well. as well. Carry on making your excellent videos and keeping steam alive and model engineering. As a kid myself I used to go with him to steam shows. Woodcote, and a spectacular steam fair at (I think) White Waltham in 1963 odd. Cheers. D. Now in South Africa, aged 72......

    Former farm kid here really appreciated that remark about farm laborers! Rushing leading to breaking things is so true. Being the elder child I ended up having most of the field work dumped on me when I was 11-12. I ran equipment for more hours than my father or brother combined in those years but my break-down rate was far lower because I took my time while they rushed. In the end, I got more done with my time going slightly slower because of all the downtime that avoided. I remember Steamtown USA doing a boilerplate fabrication to repair a locomotive once. They had nothing other than the worn-out one in front of them so the work involved constructing a stand to support sections of the existing plate, clamping the new metal atop it, heating it with a torch and using large wooden mallets to pound it into shape against the old.

    Under load, a portable tends not to rock *as much*, however, a counterweight on the flywheel would tear the mechanism to pieces, especially when a load is applied. The builders (and restorers) know what they're doing, and there is a reason that no flywheel counterweight has been applied.

    I'd like to start by saying that I thoroughly enjoy all of your videos, and this one especially so. I do however want to point out that stuffing the firebox full of wood and setting it alight is NOT recommended as best practice for an old boiler, especially small ones such as these portables. Recognizing that this unit looks in excellent shape, at the end of the day, it's still ~100 year old iron and rivets. In the future, I would strongly suggest the use of a warming fire to start; that is a small fire which will raise the temperature of the fire box and internals to about 100 deg f over the course of an hour or so. This allows for slow, gentle expansion of the stays, sheets, etc. Once everything is nice and warm, then put the fuel to her and bring up pressure. Also, I may have missed it, and if so, ignore this, but it looks as though you opened the throttle for the first time with the cylinder drains shut... if that is the case, BAD ENGINEER!!!!!!

    John Penner The engine had already been run as it had been sitting for over a year before the steaming so We wanted to make sure that the engine was running fine before we found it and the funny books that is how you steam that particular start of engine as the length of the boiler and fire box with the amount of water that was in the engine wouldn’t have made much difference with the expansion and contraction of metal and for a 100 year old engine the boiler and fire box is actually in very good condition as the only thin parts of the boiler were built welded up during the restoration.

    @@William-209 That engine does look in top form, no question! As someone very active in this myself, I'm a firm believer in doing everything we can to preserve these engines. Just to be clear, the purpose of the warming fire isn't to warm the water, rather it's get the fire-side stays, tube ends, etc. warmed up and expanding gently.. This is where the greatest stresses on the boiler occur and anything that you can do to minimize them is a good thing. Out of curiosity is UK practice to swedge the fire-side end of the tubes and roll in ferrules, or simply to roll them in 'steel to steel'?
