5 MORE of the WORST TRAINS EVER PART 4 🚂 History in the Dark 🚂

[@HistoryintheDark]

So, correcting a flub of mine: I mention off-handedly that the Fury was scrapped. This is true...if you consider that it took about fifty years for that to happen. The Fury was initially rebuilt into a Royal Scot Class number 6170 "British Legion" and served the railway for several decades. Sorry I didn't mention that!

[@НиколайИванов-в8ы1я]

Considering how the series mainly covers western vehicles I would like to offer a couple of things from the other side of the iron curtain: 1) VL 26 - an electric accumulator/contact network shunter with major reliability issues because of it's hybrid system, to the point that it was universally reffered to as "Scheiße" 2) early ChS4 models that had little in terms of protective measures against electro magnetic waves coming from their own engines, which meant that they consistently exposed their crews to EMP waves 3) K series german imported elecric engines - built like crap, so vibrations caused their onboard ignitrons to fall apart scattering nuts, bolts and mercury all over the vehicle. 4) Early VL 61s, the same problem as with the above, luckily - no casualties. 5) The teploparovoz experimental vehicles from the 1930s - hybrid diesel-steam powerplant, I just cant imagine what could go wrong with such an amazing Idea. P.S. Also the swiss electric steam engines - when your max efficiency in terms of power consumption is around 2% even such a stopgap design starts to look kinda bad.

@The Commodore P051 I wondered about that because 3 short term solutions seem obvious. One is to leave off a car or 2. Two is to add a B unit, and three is to change to lower gears, or if torque exceeds traction, add weight over the drive wheels, which could either be just ballast or something useful like a bigger engine. What is "refraining"?

[@PiersDJackson]

A major thing to remember in the history of British Railways/British Rail... in 1923 dozens of rail companies were forcefully amalgamated into four by the Government, who again amalgamated the four into one in 1948.... on paper, in reality it took until the late 1960's for a major shake up to happen. So you had 60+ year old designs still limping on in regular use. The "Standard" classes were mostly updated versions of existing classes, mostly successful... British Railways continued construction of designs that pre-dated the first amalgamation. In General the "Western Region" (ie. the former Great Western Railway) dieselised not as diesel-electric but as diesel-hydraulic. They mass produced with less than rigorous testing, in the US a locomotive would undertake hundreds of hours and miles of testing, in the UK they'd be tested as best as possible, then rushed into production to replace absolutely clapped out steamers, and continued repairs as make do and mend.... the band-aid patch for a broken arm.

[@Pensyfan19]

Great series. Interesting to see some of the lesser known engines being covered. I would suggest the LBSCR E2, but beware of the thousands of Thomas simps who defend the E2 only because Thomas is based on it.

[@DaimosZ]

[@Kishanth.J]

I heard that Thomas was going to be based off another tank engine. One that looked similar to a E2 but with bigger side tanks, but I not sure what it was. Also from what I understand the Reverend hated Henry and wanted to get rid of him using the story of Henry’s tunnel. His design was a mistake by the illustrator.

They were at best below average (FYI my scale is: terrible, sub-par, below average, average, above average, satisfactory, and excellent - & generally I consider only terrible and sub-par to be the worst). Most of their flaws seemed to have been average flaws rather than unusual or engine breaking.

The Thompson L1: the standard loco for stopping trains on my local line to London. We called 'em '677-ers'. I didn't know about the shaking apart - fascinating. A vid on Thompson would be interesting: his rebuild of the Gresley A1 was odd, but his B1 all but excellent. He detested the Gresley conjugated valve gear, having spent much of his time in maintenance and hence keen to use only 2 cylinders where possible.

[@AustinLineKJB]

10:48 I believe this is the problem with the areotrain. The wheels on a train, and the rails are made of steel. Steel on steel contact has very low friction, but since trains are usually heavy, the weight allows them to create enough friction between the wheels to get moving better. But the Areotrain was really light, so it couldn't apply much pressure on the wheels, which is probably why the trains couldn't get much speed.

[@mikesbricks9214]

This is the first video I saw on your channel. I enjoyed your research and your passion about these locomotives. As a fellow train buff I am happy to see context like this. Very nice work!

[@austint918]

There is no amount of sufficient evidence to prove Edward Thompson hated the designs of Nigel greasly when thompson took over as CMO of the lner the UK was on the brink of WWII and the LNER was in terrible shape and had no standardization of parts thompson reduced the amount of different boiler types the LNER had which was 16 down to 8 which is a major accomplishment and was overall dedicated to to improving the LNER

[@austint918]

@barnabyjoy I know there's a podcast episode done by Railway Mania about Thompson and it's such a good bit of information on the type of man and CMO he was and before I listened to that and went and got my own information I was one of the foamers who thought he just hated Greaslys designs. It's like the whole "Thompson picked Great Northern first to destroy the first Greasly pacific." Claim actually it was the Railway board of the LNER that wanted Great Northern rebuilt first because it was completely worn out at the time.

[@redwolfpiping5701]

Side note, the GM Aerotrain car bodies were straight up GM new style bus bodies modified and set on railroad wheels, at high speed the cars jarred very badly due to how light they were and that they used air shocks instead of springs

[@high_admiral5196]

not to mention that the Power units were literally switchers given streamlining and were regeared for high speeds.

[@JBofBrisbane]

11:00 - that's actually the Rock Island's Jet Rocket sevice, which used the same loco type (EMD LWT12) hauling a TALGO set rather than the EMD-bus-design coaches ofvthe Aerotrain. It wasn't much more successful that the Aerotrain, either. One wonders if the locos had been built with SW1500 engines instead of SW12 ones...

[@masterdragon2698]

I think if the aero train was heavier, it would have actually had more power because it’s weight gives the wheels more traction giving the engine more pulling power. This is why large, heavy engines are the most powerful

[@tomcline5631]

The scarier problem with high pressure steam than the pressure is the fact that the temperature of the steam is extremely high! High pressure steam can reach temps as high as 500-600 degrees at the pressures you mentioned. So a little leak let's that highly saturated steam release to the atmosphere at stupid temps and extreme expansion rates. I bet if they ever got the fury up to it design potential,they would had problems with the cylinders blowing out and the normal venting action as the cylinders stroked would have caused erosion faster than the metallurgy of the time to keep up with.

[@evandavies5906]

I think that you are being a bit unfair to Edward Thompson. He took over a railway system in crisis, owing to World War II. A lot of his decisions that he gets criticized for, or get called acts of spite towards Gresley, were in fact necessary improvisations. He also arguably did most of the groundwork for the Peppercorn Pacific's, which were excellent locomotives.

im pretty sure the PRR's T1's were supposedly clocked at speeds up to 140mph so the new one (5550)will probably break the record

[@rogerbond2244]

Being raised in the UK on City of Truro's 100 mph (possibly), 4472 Flying Scotsman's 100 mph (probably) and Mallard's 126 (almost certainly), I'd love to see the PRR T1 hit 140, with unarguable, modern measurement in place of the dynamometer cars, and realize the ambitions of its creators - historical and current. So many locomotives might have actually been the fastest, 80 years ago, and you'll still be able to argue the case for your personal choice but...what if there's a definitive, 21st century record holder?

[@bertmeinders6758]

It is very unlikely that a PRR T1 actually reached anything near 140mph. Any such clocking would be informal, done with very basic equipment and as realistic as the 10 second 0-60mph time claimed by an acquaintance for his unmodified Datsun 1600 (510 to Americans), as measured by a casio digital watch and the car's untested speedometer.

[@stashyjon]

To be fair Thompson wasn't delt a fair hand. He was working under wartime conditions, under heavy government restrictions and with materials, labour and time in short supply. so little wonder some of his locos fell short. As for gresley, that guy is seriously over rated, for every good design he created, A3 / A4 etc, he produced some real turkeys, look at the P1 frieght locos, a huge 2-8-2 that was only really of use when pulling trains too long to be handled by any of the LNERS sidings,. His P2 looked great, but had so many issues they became a total liabilty and even chewed up the tracik they ran on. His M1s were too heavy for their own lines and his U1 garret suffocated its own crew to death!

If the Grouping had happened a year earlier, edward Thompson would have been the first Chief Mechanical Engineer of the LNER, instead of deputy to Nigel Gresley, who was only about 5 years older than him. He deeply resented this, and devoted his time as CME to undoing as much of Gresley's work as he could. His pacifics were slightly more powerful than Gresley's, but suffered from cracked frames, poor ride and jerky cornering. His B1 class was outstanding, the equal of the Lms Black 5, SR N15 and GWR Castle; the rest of his locos were better forgotten.

[@CaseyJonesNumber1]

The Class 21s weren't strictly British Railways locomotives, in that BR didn't design or build them - they were built to a BR specification. They were designed and built by the North British Locomotive Company, which was a long-time builder of superb steam locomotives, but just not experienced at building diesel locomotives. Their diesel engines were a German design built under licence, with its metric dimensions converted to imperial measurements, and NBL were more used to heavily-built steam machinery, not prescision-built diesel engines, and this all contributed to the engines and the rest of the locomotive not being reliable. NBL going out of business (as no longer building steam locomotives and no more customers for their unreliable diesels) was the nail in the coffin for the Class 21s (and 22s).
