Mallard fastest steam train of all

[@Pluggit1953]

The most beautiful steam engine ever built ❤️.

[@truthseeker7242]

I was very fortunate [as a young lad in the 1950s] to be on one of those last 'non-stop' runs by Mallard, as well as shorter hops from Darlington to Newcastle. I was also on trains pulled by the likes of Sir Nigel Gresley, Cock of the North, Talisman, Golden Arrow, and other famous names. I can still close my eyes, think, remember, feel, smell and 'hear' those experiences of yore. Oh, and Mallard didn't always have to stop for water, there were also water troughs that it could dip a hose into while still on the go.

Man was I born much too late! I can only imagine how exhilarating it must have been to ride, and drive, it. The only running steam line near me is a tiny stretch of an old narrow gauge line. The distance is disappointing, but it sure is a wonderful ride while it lasts though. But I've never gotten to experience high speed rides like that (hardly even wide gauge rides). Hopefully that will change in the future :)

That is amazing

PS I've Been To Bristol In England This Year And Been To See Disney's Beauty And The Beast The Broadway Musical At Bristol's Hippodrome Theatre And Been On Brunel's S.S Great Britain Museum As Well Too And It Was Super Awesome.

[@ruperttownsend7056]

Did he?

[@transportguy1k635]

0:00 - 0:29 I've always been wondering who was narrating this series

[@transportguy1k635]

8:37 if you listen 🎧 carefully you can hear the narrators voice very faintly, that spoke before the original narration sound did

[@DarkSide-nt7fo]

What'll happen on Mallard's 100th anniversary? Do you think the NRM will let her run for a short period of time in celebration?

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

We might have to wait and see and find out what’s happening

[@Kyleinasailing]

The A4s were wonderful looking beasts and with a power output of upto 2700 hp also extremely powerful. But the German streamlined locomotive in 1937 had 3000 hp and achieved 125 mph on the level and was not damaged after attaining that speed, unlike Mallard. Mallard attained 126 mph for only 100 yards down a slight incline, and even Sir Nigel Gresley doubted that it had attained that speed.

she now lives in the national railway museum at york in the main hall they gathed the reamaning locos of her class for an anaversary ive been only once close up to it when i went with my brother as far as i know Mallard is not in steam under her own power also its not wearing 60022 as its got the oridgonal numbeting 4464 or i have probly not noticed 60022

[@mightyalbert1470]

I did the cheecky thing of standing in the cab of mallard

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

U can hear the bell 206 helicopter in the background in this clip at garsdale

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

This engine has been out and about being towed by union of South Africa tornado and the 56 diesel locomotive

[@evanf1293]

Did they show any scene of mallard running 126 miles an hour any time in this vid?

[@fp7026]

The title is incorrect. Mallard is not a train, it is a locomotive. A train is what it pulls.

[@alberttetley]

yes that is correct but most people know the complete unit as a train. so not to confuse people who English is not their first language it is just easier to call it a train inside of a locomotive.

Hey. Can I please use some of your footage in my films? I will credit you for it.

[@alberttetley]

hi there thank you for asking... I do not have any legal right over this video. so you may go ahead and use it at your own discretion.. Albert

@@alberttetley Thanks. And please upload more videos to KZbin.

[@tannerbryson9762]

the mallard is good looking

[@kingkramer]

I want to see it, I want to film it, I want to take pictures of it, I want to ride it, I want to drive it, and I know that I most likely will not be able to do the most of these things at all. The best I can do is visit wherever it's displayed.

[@geoffreyking1634]

It is not a train mallard is a locomotive..it is the fastest STEAM loco ever but was not a favourite on top shed that honour went to flying fox ,woodcock,Lord Farringdon..

[@johnbenedictbarriosquimpo8336]

[@voidjavelin23]

both spencer and mallard are the same class that is the A4

[@Alex-hn9qj]

IS MALLARD IS THE BEST AND IS THE FASTER!!!!!!!

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Yeah and his record remains unbeaten

[@ItsDavieman]

this title is misleading this isnt the fastest train as new trains can go faster

[@alberttetley]

thank you for taking the time to comment I have changed the title to make it clearer

American steam trains are faster N&W 611 can hit 140

[@alberttetley]

This Train Set The Steam Locomotive Speed Record 75 Years Ago. The fastest trains in the USA are the Amtrak Acela, which hit a pretty decent 150 MPH. But on July 3rd, 1938, a steam-powered locomotive called the Mallard hit 125.88 MPH in England, and it's still the fastest steam locomotive in the world.

[@Random.Channel_]

+Alan Greenman but the 611 can hit 140

[@alberttetley]

Norfolk & Western 611 Maximum speed 110 mph (177 km/h) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%26W_J_class_(1941)
