100 YEAR OLD STEAM TRAIN | Yorkshire Steam Railway: All Aboard | Reel Truth History Documentaries

[@densondirosa4497]

The gentleman Mr Fletcher shows the love & passion of a Loco he worked on, & his love of steam in general. A passion most don’t understand, but one many share. Steam engines are literally the mechanical version of an animal, a breathing, A TRULY LIVING MACHINE, which have quirks, are temprimdntal

One of the main draws for me moving to Pickering 2015 was the NYMR here. The place is just living magic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now in 2020 Piglet's little steam tram engine Lucy shown here under renovation is now finished and puffing around on the line.

[@hrani]

Oh! That's lovely to hear about Lucy. I'm glad she's getting to roam the tracks again

[@eliotreader8220]

I got a copy of his Book John Fletcher BR Engine man. there's a lot of jokes in it. I may have been taken out of service but have not yet gone for scrap. he also fired Olton Hall during the filming of one of the Harry Potter films

[@eliotreader8220]

@@hrani I understand that Piglet's wife has written a story about Piglet restoring Lucie

I wonder if the old repair job in the fire box was done by a BR boiler smith?

[@themadplotter]

Pretty sure it was partnered with the open uni?

This is my new favorite You Tube Channel. Thank You So Much for sharing this great series 👍🏼

"Your about the right HEIGHT to Blow them OUT!" must be one of the best lines of the film!!!! David and Lily Reading Model Engineers.

Most reliable engines ever build, Nor build for a lifetime But build to last for Ever thanks for uploading Great stuff

[@themadplotter]

Are you watching this program? They constantly break and need massive servicing, that’s what the whole program is about.

[@polygamous1]

@@themadplotter So how many engines this old still work anywhere on earth? yes to me they are amazing engines n I Love them

[@themadplotter]

@@polygamous1 i mean they are brilliant and i love them but they are more tantamount to a living organism with their moods and tempers is what I meant. I think that's what makes them special.

Visited a couple of years back. Amazing experience

[@steamsearcher]

SUPERB!!! Dad had decided on a day trip to Whitby from Alterincham and we did a diversion and stop at a Station. 1969 so some time ago. Our family had been in Africa for 3 years enjoying Beyer Garrats storming through the town of Broken Hill Zambia. 1968 December our return but by that time it was all over. We had Dinting and K%WVR to enjoy. I did OO and a passing interest in Model Engineering. My Wife quite likes a Black Five tender model in the sitting room. David.

[@railfreightdrivergallagherGBRf]

Do you mean Altrincham?

[@jamesbrien1944]

Fantastic experience!

[@will_levitt926]

12:38 RIP Fletch, I was lucky enough to meet him quite a few times and to sign his book for me. I’ll never forget that legend!

[@eliotreader8220]

when did the ex BR engine man pass on to the big engine shed in the sky? I have got a copy of his book by the sounds of it he had a great sense of dramatics if that's the right word for it. I may have been withdrawn from service but not yet gone for scrap.

"Diesel" was my guard when I did Whitby to Pickering a few weeks ago.

[@happinessishomemade6242]

This was wonderful

[@densondirosa4497]

My comment flew on without me sending it. I was trying to say steam engines are the closet machine to a living, breathing animal. They are temperamental, they can get sick,, they show their ages, & they like some drivers & dislike others & if cared for & shown some human like love, they have long & productive lives. Sorry for the fopah with the first part of my comment !!

[@themadplotter]

Even modern trains are required to carry those small explosive charges incase all communications to go down, they are so effective.

[@casper1240]

I admire that lad for climbing inside that boiler through that small hole .i couldnt do it

[@P61guy61]

Excellent.

[@Autumner42]

Was this episode after the filming dates of Downton Abbey? I know they used the Q2 and the NYMR for the opening few minutes of the film. I can't recall when they filmed the film in comparison to this.

[@bengo76]

Wonderful

The locomotive on your thumbnail ‘46100 Royal Scot’ IS NOT 100 years old and is also the wrong loco

[@OlanKenny]

If you go from the original build date, they're about 90 years old, so 100 wouldn't be a terrible exaggeration
