Wonder where the audio was from, as that whistle is nothing like the caley hooter these engines sport

I think that they where made by Crosby in the United States.

They were, Gresley heard one of two at the RH&DR and was given one that he then fitted to the P2s. After that he just ordered more for the LNER, the one that the RH&DR kept is currently on 'Winston Churchill' and is probably the most accurate sound of a pre-war A4 you'll find

🏴 Such a beautiful engine. ❤️ No wonder Hornby made this into a OO model. 👍
@johnd88924 ай бұрын
It was Triang who made the model in 1963. Just got renamed Triang-Hornby and later Hornby, but the tooling and toolmakers skills were all Triang from Margate and remained so until the tools were sent to the China factory for the most recent production.

Oh how I would have loved to have seen No. 123 in action, especially when she was double-heading with LSWR T9 no. 120. She is such a beautiful engine!

The Caley Single was the last operational 'Single' locomotive to operate on the network. The LMS used it to haul inspection/directors saloons on the LMS section of Scotland's railways. It was in operational service until 1933.

Eight wheels on the locomotive. Only two powered. Single powered axle though despite the common mistake of calling it a single wheeler.
Sowe 13 running doubt headed with T9 wen I was a child. Was it at Croydon? 123 had it's coal painted white!

This is basically a single driver version of a contemporary Drummond 4-4-0. So there would be no question of it not running well. With light loads singles have advantages over coupled engines, and the last ones designed for a British railway entered service 15 years after no.123. I very much doubt if it was designed just to be a static exhibit as it would have cost the wages of a skilled man for 25 year, the equivalent of a million pounds in today's money.
@ajaxengineco3 жыл бұрын
Are you counting the LSWR C14 2-2-0 tanks as singles? I feel that they would be the last actually built but whether to factor them or not is beyond me.
@DavidJones-mn7ie3 жыл бұрын
No, I'm thinking of the GCR Class13, which came out in 1900. Also the Midland and the GWR both built single driver expresses up to 1899. The C14s were more like steam railcar engines built separately from the coach portion.

@johnthompson81203 жыл бұрын
Wow! I was surprised to see 123 pushing the stock into Callander sidings. She had beautifully etched thistles on her front buffers which the Scottish region staff were very precious about preventing them being damaged( she was always at the head of doubleheaders) However the etchings were badly damaged after a railtour in England so I guess this was after that.
