Even though I'm from America, I still have a great deal of appreciation for these living and breathing pieces of history. I wish we were half as good at keeping them around as you folks in the UK are. I wish I could come over and shake your hands for saving them and then volunteer on them, but I probably won't be allowed to

I can remember being on Doncaster station many times back in the middle to late 1950s trainspotting and there was no finer sight than to see a `streak` A4 Pacific thundering through the station albeit not at full speed because of the restrictions through the station but still going fast enough to captivate you, add to that the powerful A2s with such names as A H Peppercorn , Hornets Beauty and Blue Peter etc, yeh the 50s and early 60s was a good time to see some of BRs best and greatest locos, I was even lucky enough to see Batchelors Button coming out Doncaster works in pristine condition and at the time was shedded at 64b Haymarket, now that was a sight to see, thanks for the splendid video, it brings back great memories.

At 20:29 there was a shot in a cutting of the small and large Atlantics that were used on the Plant Centenarian...but I could not see any headboard. I believe that the large GN Atlantic did not steam well as the blastpipe was misaligned with the funnel. The pair were quickly taken away after the run as was the last Atlantic in BR livery about the same time. Management seemed to be very wary of having GN Atlantics on show at the time.

I wanted to know why don’t they dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so they extend the unused abandoned underground stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock and remix and make them all together and also redesign them overhead line and also make them into 5 cars per unit and also having 2 Disabled Toilets on those 5 cars per unit A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo TD102KF, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into a 11 car per unit so it could have less doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers. A Stock Trains and also having 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it more bigger and extend it to bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those 4 European countries such as Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Train tunnel into an High Speed train. The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Train line to make it 8 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. then put the modernised 11 car per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those 4 European countries such as Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbish 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 37 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project that is OK for London Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden Easily. Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly line and also build a brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street and also make another brand new tunnel train stations in Chingford and could they extend the DLR. All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo TD102KF, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel five carriages to disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extend doing roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and they can order Every 17 Octagon and Hexagon shape LNER diagram and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 117MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 117MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units can they use those class 55’s, class 44’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 16 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!, oh can you make all of those Coal Boxes’s 16 Tonnes for all of the 117MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!! so Please make sure that the Builders can do as they are Told!!

But there is NO reason to build a new A4 Pacific with 6 still with us!!! Heck, Bittern has become known for cosplaying as some of the deceased A4's, such as Silver Link and, more recently, engine 4492, Dominion of New Zealand! As much as I hate saying this, you HAVE to face it! Silver Link is gone! Dead! Destroyed! Cut up for scrap! Wiped off the face of the planet!!! However you want to put it... So unless there were no surviving A4 Pacifics at all, there is NO demand to build a new Silver Link! And in case you haven't heard this little story about the Great Western 7800's (Manors), building a new Silver Link would honestly be just as pointless as building 7830, Norton Manor, the 31st Manor class locomotive that was ordered buit never built! Heck, the name was carried by 7828 Oddney Manor back in 2011... Seriously, buddy... Putting it a bit bluntly: you can't win this... :/
