I think "agricultural" is exactly the right work to describe this little loco. It reminds me very much of the old Fergie 35 I used to drive at Normanby Hall near Scunthorpe. The original body was long gone and had been replaced with a plain piece of steel sheet folded over the top of the engine and a bit of chicken wire as a grill. The whole thing shook and rattled like she was coming apart and the steering would be generously described as vague. In spite of all that, she always started come blazing sunshine, pouring rain or a couple of feet of snow and got on with the job regardless.

Videos like this not only show how important small industrial machines are, but also how interesting. Stuff like this just steadily getting on with its job in the background are so easy to ignore and yet nothing would get done without them. Fantastic to see it in preservation and with no plans to make it look like anything other than the hardworking industrial unit it is.

Having said that, take a look at the size of some of those floating docks, they could hold the Titanic easily. #4 Royal Dock is 438 meters long and 86 wide, the Titanic was 269m and the largest H&W drydock is 335m completed in 1968.

I love that thing its perfect Lawrie and nobody can tell me otherwise. I once almost owned a very similar rail truck a year ago in 27” gauge. Although it started out life as a Ford model A turned bus with a shed on a Maryland Iron Bog railway with a Baltimore horse car wheel set. It was practically this thing but with thick walls filled with asbestos. Id run that little guy if i could but I don’t think I’d fit the door or I might bust a hole in the roof of that.

There's an industrial NG website with dozens of home-produced DVDs of peat railways, quarries, clayworks, waterworks, chemical works, feldbahn [forestry trains]... and I distinctly remember this loco-shed thumping around a tight curve, through nettles almost as high as the roof, and into a receiving / conveyor shed with a train of side-tipping wagons.

Apedale Railway seems like a railway where members/volunteers can just go and have a play with a locomotive. Does seem to have that atmosphere.

@mbak78012 жыл бұрын
A thought! You could make a couple of passenger carriages in the same style. Holes in the side for viewing the countryside. You could run Santa specials by having staff running along the side of the train and passing plates for each course through slots cut in the side. When each course is finished the crockery and cutlery can be posted through slots in the other side to fall into sacks nailed on for collection. Wine glass shaped cutouts could be used for serving mulled wine and smaller ones for mince pies. I would buy a ticket for a meal on it.

Form follows function to the extreme. You almost need a sign that says you must be smaller than this height and width to drive this engine. Bonkers, yes. Fun, for the first several hours at least. They used what they had and made it work which is a testament to the crew that put it together. They probably had a week of down time for.design and build I wonder what the prior "sheds" looked like on this engine and when the first was added? I don't think that ply is not from 1959. I could see the springs working but wonder how much set they have taken over the 62 or so years maybe that has something to do with the ride quality? Does not matter as the short wheel base guarantees it will pitch up and down. Love all the expedients like the sanding hole and the cute horn which reminds me of the horn I added to my '48 school bus. I can see why you like it as it does seem to epitomize your mechanical marvels.
