"oh good heavens, hello there"..... The most British reaction to a head on train crash ever🤣

Few facts for the west country/battle of britain class: the air smoothed casing is to allow the engine to be washed in a carriage washer. The reverser is a original bulleid steam reverser, fast acting and unpredictable. The valve gear is actually a chain driven style encased in a constant oilbath. The smokebox and outer firebox are actually a part of the casing, acting as formers to keep the casings shape. Quite a bit of welding fabrication goes into a single wc/bob class, notably tender, cab, smokebox, casing. All of which were removed upon members of the class being rebuilt with more conventional features. They were quite prone to wheelslip due to deficiencies in welding resulting in the chain baths leaking. They were incredibly good steamers with a boiler pressure originally set at 280psi, later lowered to 250. And the reason for the air brakes is to keep the engine compliant and allow it to haul more modern stock.

Bulleid designed a new chain-driven valve gear, which was used on all his pacifics until the "air-smoothed casings" were removed. The uncased examples were fitted Walschaerts valve gear, which increased the hammerblow to the track. I can't properly explain in a comment, best check out the wikipedia page.

@@Hyce777Looks were VERY important for express locomotives in the UK. Manufacturers would compete openly with railways putting their prettiest and most famous locos on posters and advertising material. We had almost perfected the art of steam locomotion so more designers wanted to make their passenger locos visual works of art. Workhorse locos like the 8Fs rarely received such care as they would rarely be the locos you’d see picking you up from an extravagant London station. The British view of locos was they were elegant living steel horses, just like actual horses…passenger carriage horses were prettied up and adorned with decoration whilst the horses who pulled ploughs and goods carriages were given the care they needed to be strong and do their job. It’s also partially why our whistles were more dainty sounding than their US counterparts, such ‘brutish’ sounds were not a match for the perceived elegance of British steam.

I busted out laughing at the "Oh good heavens! Where are we going? Hello there!"

This is what my brain thought each time you paused to consult the manual: Neo (not me, the one from the Matrix): Do you know how to drive a Bulleid Pacific? Hyce: Not yet *flips open phone* Tank, I need a program for a British Railways Bulleid Pacific [Real World, Tank is a real life version Thomas the TANK engine]: CHOO CHOO! Hyce: *Brief eye twitches, then turns to Neo* Let's go!

Those Bulleid engines had the chain valve gear dipped inside a bath of oil, which leaked into the rails and made them wheel spin. And, on top of that, that valve gear type used to fail very frequently. Ironically, it was designed to be more reliable than the traditional Walschaerts valve gear and allow for minimum maintenance. But, because the engine was designed in the middle of World War II, its designer, Oliver Vaughan Snell Bulleid, didn't had enough time to fully develop and work out the bugs out the valve gear system. Also, the sole purpose of the "streamlined" front is to deflect smoke away from the driver's view.

It's Bull-eed as in, "you were bullied in high school for being a massive railroading nerd." fun fact, the Builder, Mr Bulleid, managed to get these built past the war department's scathing regulations during the Second World War by claiming they were "Mixed-Traffic engines" which they are absolutely not.

Hopefully the chainlink valve gear doesn't go wrong today (the chainlink valve gear is why you have oil pressure since it uses it as lubricant)

When you turn the fireman on i can see the look on his face thinking he's going to have s good day only to see Hyce send it into the roof and watch in horror as his boiler pressure drops and frantically grabs the shovel

Big ejector's on the brake handle. All the way up opens it, you leave the handle in the "running" positition to keep from wasting steam and keep the brakes off with the small ejector (the little handle on the vac. brake quadrant).

The valve gear on this engine led the way for the valve gear on Bullied's Leader class. Many people call it an abomination, but I think it was quite an interesting attempt at keeping steam traction alive. Oil bath, fully encased, chain driven valve gear. What an innovative idea!

If you want a TS Classic British steam locomotive with a good whistle I cannot recommend the LMS A2 enough. Via the cab controls you can quill the whistle as much as you want. Also the S160.

The unrebuilt Light Pacifics were lovely engines, but a sod to maintain because of the chain valve gear being encased in the oil bath, which was all good until the chain snapped and basically bricked the locomotive, but there were loads of innovative designs, Bulleid was full of those, and some of them stuck and many of them didn't. The oil bath was prone to leaking all over the place and occasionally catching fire, which would then spread inside the streamlined casing, the Merchant Navy class had circular sandbox doors on the streamlined casing which often vibrated open at speed, allowing rain to get into the sand and ruin it, they were replaced with square doors on the Light Pacifics. The Merchant Navies also had a problem with metal fatigue on the crank axle which caused 'Bibby Line' to shed her brake block at speed, demolishing Crewkerne station canopy, they were withdrawn and that problem was fixed soon afterwards. Good engines, steamed really well, and could really fly along the Kent lines, but a bit light on their feet and not without their share of issues.

3.00 The big ejector comes on when the brake handel is fully forward. The atomiser is to do with the oil feed to the cylinders. The steam oil is mixed with high pressure steam and carried to the cylinders. Also you have to lift the reverser up to unlock it :P The joys of Bulleids.....still though fun to drive as there is never a dull moment with them! The reverser is also steam operated and on the real thing they have a mind of their own. They will fly into reverse gear on you if your not careful with it!

At 16:40 all I can hear is Shaq saying "sand, give her sand!!" Lmfao

Awesome, very odd lines on this loco. I love trying to figure out these things and then resorting to the manual too. You should check out the Smokebox 4-4-0s in TS Classic, I'd love to see how a real engineer runs one of those especially during switching.

there is a large ejector, but its automatically controlled when you put the brakes to the fully released position, a genius innovation by O.V.S. Bulleid

Same with 'namers' - I would say "Royal Scot" rather than "the Royal Scot" - in fact in that case, the latter would refer to a service running between Euston and Glasgow, whereas the former is a named locomotive (which might sometimes have hauled said service!).

It was delicate in one major area oil, if not topped off they would seize up like no other gear!

The primary generator was a fully sealed ultra-high-pressure circuit working between 1,400 and 1,800 psi (9.7 to 12.4 MPa), filled with distilled water that transferred heat from the firebox to the high-pressure drum. This raised high-pressure steam at 900 psi (6.2 MPa) which was taken to power the cylinders and also recirculate pure water. The third steam raising unit was a relatively conventional locomotive fire tube boiler operating at 250 psi (1.7 MPa) heated by combustion gases from the coal fire.

@@ciala51 The Great Western Company had promoted in WW1 a system by which a conscripted railwayman, having done his war service, would gain seniority in line with his time spent fighting. If he was injured in the conflict so that he was unable to work again the Company would provide him a full pension. If a railwayman was injured in his line of work on the Great Western, provided he was a part of the G.W.R.'s Medical Fund Society (which could be joined for a small wage deduction) he would be treated by an on-site doctor with no upfront cost to him or his family. Please note this was organised by the Company in the 1840s - while no other railways were making similar considerations. On a different note, the G.W.R. also invented what was then called Automatic Train Control - by which means, if a train was approaching a signal at danger, its driver would be warned by an audible signal. If the signal was passed the brakes were automatically applied. This system was the first of its kind anywhere, and if other Companies had gone to the same lengths as the G.W.R. to install similar devices, accidents that occurred almost 50 years after the invention of A.T.C., such as the Harrow & Wealdstone disaster, could have been avoided. In answer to some of your questions - who pioneered electric traction? Mr. Volk - in the 1880s. First commuter application was the City & South London Railway (which I believe was the first deep-level 'tube'. You say the Southern did not replace the older forms of engine, and this is quite true. The reason for this lack of development, especially in shunting and goods engines, was a policy by the Southern to favour electrified passenger rail over goods traffic. As of 1948, most of their shunting tank engines were Victorian, as well as engines on outlying branch lines - the L.S.W.R. M7 and the L.B.&S.C.R. A1/x come to mind. By all means both very successful classes with great versatility and longevity - but the fact either class has surviving members is a testament to the Southern's lax attitude to modernisation on some lines. Also - the locomotive that 'outranks all others' in preservation is the Austerity saddle tank, with around 70 in existence.

@@Foxymorris9236 I recommend the swanage railway they have 2 bulleid Pacifics running normaly currently during days when their running 2 steam engines one is 257 squadron a unrebuilt Battle of Britain and Eddystone is a rebuilt West Country also the climb out of corfe castle station heading towards swanage sounds incredible also swanage itself Is the best place in the world as it’s a sea side town with a heritage railway also it’s not far from a castle ruin also busses run regularly to Poole where you can get a mainline service to london it’s just in general the perfect place ever

Driving on the wrong side of the track, typical Americans :P pfff You were looking at the backs of the signals (the white with a black stripe) they're painted different to avoid confusion.

So the large jet is on the brake handle you have the running postion which is the brakes released then you can push the lever further to put the large jet up. I've spent a fair amount of time making the internals and putting one of those brake valves together. I know far to much about these stupid locos...
