Wow!! 🎉🎉

They are feeding too much coal. If I assume correctly, the escape valve is already releasing steam, because of the boiler reached the maximum pressure. If they are not going to need a lot of power in the next 5-10 mins, they are wasting coal and water.

Not bad for barely three quarters of the route. Having stations etc listed would not have helped because we did not see quite a few of them eg Arlesey cut to driver cut to Biggleswade cut to Little Barford power station.

Peter Pan looks just like Luke!

For the people saying the us is behind on rail development: the United States is EONS more vast and disconnected than Europe and Japan. Commerce routes between suitable cities are sometimes hundreds of miles apart with nothing in between. A high speed rail network in the United States is useless unless built only on the east and west coast, between cities like New York and Norfolk, and San Diego to Seattle.

Dêsormais, on n'aura plus que des locos étrangères uniformisêes...😢

Great video!

Hilarisch dit! I Don’t wanna be stuck in ROOSENWALD! 😂😂😂

Wat een grote SCHANDE !!!! Een prima lok die nog vele decennia meekan weggooien. Kijk naar Engeland waar ouder materieel veel betrouwbaarder blijkt dan chip gestuurde mechanica. Nederland heeft die blunders al begaan, laat Belgie niet dezelfde fout maken.

I always love seeing the 373s in waterloo.

Nice video! good lads on the footplate, experienced driver DC and fireman Joseph on this fine engine. captured the lovely countryside as well, wonderfull.

"Promo sm" 🤣

Steam locomotive hauled trains are a romance

This video takes me right back to 7th June 1965 when, through the kindness of the driver, I was allowed to ride on the footplate of 7822 from Machynelleth to Shrewsbury. Neber to be forgotten but, having taken my last photograph beforehand my film ran out, so the memory is all in my mind! I was standing all the way in the LH corner of the cab next to the spectacle window. As we climbed Talerdigg bank I was able to look back over the (low) tender and past the coaches to see the sunset in the west. Wonderful!!

I also have a Hardback Book called The Railway Policeman. The Story of the Constable on the Track. By J. R. WHITBREAD.

I have the Hardback DORLING KINDERSLEY DK EYEWITNESS GUIDES Book of TRAIN. Discover the story of railways - from the days of steam to the high - speed, sophisticated trains of today. In association with THE NATIONAL RAILWAY MUSEUM.

Mooie

This is why we need to keep some Coal burning locomotives around: you can't do that on an oil burner, or you can but it's not like you need a shovel on an oil burner.

2:52 you can also hear the AWS and its sounds like that from the class 395

Play the video at 2x speed and enjoy the speed of 640 km😂

E320 Eurostar

A Hall, my favourite engine as a fireman. IF you've got a good driver will do everything a Castle even a King will do. But my Dad swore by the Kings for his time on the GWR.

That engine is getting old. Sooner or later to keep Steam Engines going they will have to be rebuilt. Hard work? They have no idea.

I wonder if that young lady is still working on the K & WVR doing the firing or has she progressed into actually driving the steam trains. Hope she has.

India has speed of 180✨️

Fantastic video 👍👍👍 It's a o pity there's only one working steam locomotive left though 😢

This speed is equivalent to the speed of Japan's Tohoku fast train which reaches 320km/h. from Tokyo > Sapporo

Hungry locomotive

Very good video HSTs best passenger trains ever built and made in this county.

Im playing train sim 3 addicted to it it's the closest i get to driving a real train lol

Qual o ônibus vai para a estação De metro de Louise em Bruxelas

Magnifique

The crew seem to be doing a cracking job on the footplate. Always keen to see more women on the railways. 75078 is a fantastic engine, one of the only good standard designs, the others being the standard 4 tanks and standard 7s. Not keen on standard 2s, 6s or especially class 5s.

Welwyn Viaduct, (AKA Digswell Viaduct) which we cross at 06:02 spans the valley of the river Mimram. The viaduct was completed in 1850 and over 12 million bricks were used in its construction. From memory I think that this whole section of the line was built under the control of top Victorian Railway contractor Thomas Brassey. The viaduct was considered one of the wonders of the Railway age and for a while it was a tourist attraction in its own right. Queen Victoria herself took the train from London to see the viaduct, though she refused to cross it in the train! She got off the train at Hatfield and took a coach and horses to the other side of the viaduct - admiring the viaduct from a distance. She rejoined the royal train at Old Welwyn station. As you can just see at 06:20 having crossed the viaduct, trains flashes through Old Welwyn station. Despite the name it bears, the station is actually located in the village of Digswell and is almost a mile from the very pretty village of Old Welwyn. After the station (just visible at 06:22) the line then runs into the first of the two Welwyn Tunnels. These tunnels take the line under the high ground between Digswell and Woolmer Green. Sadly, there was a major two train accident in the northernmost of these tunnels in 1866 when a coal train and an empty goods train collided. Two railwaymen lost their lives there and the resulting fire in the tunnel had to be left to burn itself out, which took two days. Of course the death toll would have been far greater had the trains been passenger trains - a fact not lost on the Victorians, who immediately installed new safety precautions around that location.

Good video. I wonder though where the majority of the National Collection is ?

didn't this engine appear in the new Railway children film that came out last year

a fantastic train museum

c'est le TGV

now im wondering what it would be like to drive talyllyn when it comes back around 2023 in that GER Blue its supposed to be in when it returns to steam

Some nice footage there. Picked up a good balance of scenery, locomotive, and the lovely sounds of a steam loco in action.

The girl remind me w.w. II women. Tough and powerfull and great.

what kind of car is this and how is it driving on train tracks??

Train Crew serving hot food and drinks and passenger comfort o.a.p's an alike definitely a fail to fast out of Kings Cross an into Peterborough.

Hey lumpy, get out of the lads way that’s actually working. Geez, he’s shoveling and you’re staring.

Женщина арангутанг.

Looks like a peaceful job😄

Nice to see a lady on the shovel. Be good to see more doing it.

did you get to shovel coal too?

How do you get yourself on all these footplate rides? 🤣
