When she’s up and running, I’d love to see her double head with the Bluebells 80151… not only having two standard 4 tank s together but having sequential numbers too would be rather special

[@chrismaskell5702]

The locomotive has found a place in my heart when I'm older and I join the railway and I am going to driver her

[@TheMidlandTerrier]

Another Fantastic video! I never new that it was part of the Barry 10

[@TheSorub]

this is one of my favourite locos on the line , Donate to its appeal page, the more that do so , the quicker she will be in steam !!

[@frankparsons1629]

Jolly good effort, great to see work being taken forward.

[@AlongPreservedLines]

It’s great to see 80150 getting fixed up, I saw something similar with classmate No 80097 which was restored at the East Lancashire Railway

[@jakeeiseman-renyard3505]

I've always loved these 2-6-4 tanks

[@johntait491]

I remember these engines well. 80126, 80028, 80092/93 allocated to Stirling Shed (63B) took us to school and back in Callander.

[@jamesascough8950]

fantastic video

[@reecehaire9124]

Can you do a video on the class 08?

[@neiloflongbeck5705]

No tbe fairburn tanks were designed for the LMS not the SR. The SR had lots of ore-grouping small locomotives which the Std 4 tanks were intended to replace. 7 Fairburn 4MT tanks were transferred to the North East without modification between 1952 and 1954. Included in the transfer was Brighton-built 42083 which by the summer of 1952 was based at Darlington.

[@paulroberts9704]

wonderful looking locomotives , always loved this large tank, it was only a while ago that hattons had done a article on ready to run models that the fairburn was mentioned, so I think some were allocated to the southern. Does anyone have any information about this would love to see these two together

[@ClassThrash]

Nice to see this one’s being worked on, it’ll fit right in there (& would that be THE Martin Orford or IQ??)

[@florjanbrudar692]

I can already see the day when this tank engine runs again

[@jakeeiseman-renyard3505]

Were these British Rail's largest tank locomotives?

[@jameshardy4354]

I heard that the Severn Valley Railway is rebuilding a BR Standard Class 3!

[@terrier_productions]

[@Ray_D_Tutto]

Is the the fastest/strongest tank engine?

[@florjanbrudar692]

Tank engines like this were capable of reaching 113 km/h, but no. Tank engines weren't built for speed.

[@Ray_D_Tutto]

@@florjanbrudar692 Out of all the tank engines though it's the Fastest/Strongest?

HOW on earth did you draw that!!?
