5 inch Gauge LBSC Tich - Live Steam Locomotive

[@markr9340]

I now own this lovely LBSC Tich featured in this video. She has recently passed her hydraulic and steam test so ready for many more years of enjoyable operation. There’s a video of the engine running at my local club on my channel 🚂 She does runs very well indeed, tending to like slightly higher speeds. Once the Sale Model Engineering Club reopens to visitors I plan to bring her up to have a run on familiar territory 😀

Impressive pulling power for such a tiny engine!

[@bobcholawo6787]

Humm. Now I want one.... D'oh! God bless all who ride.

[@davidcutts2650]

Great video, I just love the engineering that goes into building these scale steam loco’s. Thanks for sharing 👍👍😎

[@RockyRailroadProductions_B0SS]

Love this particular loco! It's like the Simplex 0-6-0, where from the same general shape a whole lot of creative and different looking locos can be made with different cabs etc. I like the spectacle plate cab on that one!

Cool video love the locomotives

[@logotrikes]

That little Tich punches WELL above its weight.....

[@toyotaprius79]

Someone should recreate the train chase scene from Wallace and Gromit with this!

Be Low Below why ?

Sweet engine. Thinking of doing a Tich in 7.5" gauge (USA) according to C. Kennions' plans.

[@petergrhill]

Me too.

[@Striding888]

You can get drawings and castings for this engine from GLR Kennions

[@missasinenomine]

Shake rattle & Roll! It's a wonder it stays on the track! Not being so heavy as some others.

[@jilkeschilteschilte5311]

That's pretty fast for that small steam engine!

Puffball

[@thomasthetankengine5399]

Wow I wish I can go their

[@ronleitch7788]

I’ll bet that the full size Tich never reached these speeds (scaled up) in real life! Was she not a ‘Shunter’?

[@justadudeontheinternet8354]

don't think tich was even a standard gauge engine.

[@Mr_Smidge]

It never was full size :(

[@johnnyjames7139]

What is the hurry? There is only so much track.

[@harryrobinson2901]

Johnny James I have a 3 1/2” Tich, and I generally find it steams better at higher speed.

[@wideyxyz2271]

Superb......

[@leohoward7282]

Was this small loco built from scratch or from a kit either I'm envious of the skills the owners have

Ahh yes, Lady from both Thomas and the Magic Railroad + Calling All Engines.
