Opening the Master of the Glens Train Set!

This train set from Hornby features a Gresley P2 locomotive 'Cock o the North' in a splendid apple green livery. It really is a fantastic set for the money and the three teak coaches only add to the splendour.

The P2 locomotive is currently still being built and And the name they have chosen for it is the prince of Wales

[@Moleman978]

I do love that P2! Got myself one a few months ago, and thankfully Digital Traction are making one for Train Simulator :)

[@joshuaknight1130]

Moleman978 hi moleman !!!

[@MrBnsftrain]

26:31 In America, the baggage (or luggage) compartments are at the front of the train, just behind the locomotive, while the end has observation cars with big windows so passengers can see! A very nice set! I might get this set, if I ever find it! But I kinda wanted the Flying Scotsman (set or loco) for a very long time!

[@railwayproductions5438]

another awesome review will...thanks for making it for us.....

[@sonnylindfield3771]

Awesome stuff.

[@XleeHS]

Great job

[@jaistorey6839]

I will give this video a 10 out of 10 good work. keep up the awesome work!!!!!

[@eprtrainslocomotives3910]

Same I got this one and it is amazing! It is so strong

[@connorpatricknolanmusic1453]

I've been waiting for this!!!!!!! Amazing

[@AMOGLES99]

The lifting of smoke out of the chimney is not just about the efficiency of the engine but its also important to make sure smoke doesn't cling around the locomotive too much which would block the driver's view of the line ahead. The fairings to either side of the chimney are there to create air currents that help push the smoke away. The 1920s and 1930s were the golden era of aerodynamics research and massive progress was made in the understanding of air flows.

[@markbean6378]

good set will keep doing hornby

[@lewiscarty5517]

I just came back from Porthmadog and visited that shop on my first day, and I was surprised to see the model sets and I even saw Flying Scotsman set, and a Mallard train set too.

[@TF2004-official]

I am getting this for my birthday😀😀😀

[@taylord9587]

That is way cool will that is amazing !!!!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀

[@OGZERO123]

I like all your videos please make another one soon

[@jamtart606]

Apparently if I'm not mistaken, the W1, was also known as the "Hush-Hush"

[@sethxd6578]

wow Awesome😘👍👍

[@aedaxooaedaxoo4506]

i have a oo train and i am 12 years old and love it it is the best hobby ever it is a marklin train you should have a look o and keep up the good work

[@AdiPullen]

p2 is lovely

[@bigjimbo1371]

I love the loco it's beautiful

[@Plagued4Life]

Awesome video Will, KEEP ER GOIN! :DDD

[@miscellaneous.7127]

ok, it's not possible for you to have watched the entire video. ;)

[@Plagued4Life]

Why Not? I know, i commented becuz his videos are amazing, doesnt matter if i watched them or not b4 commenting LOL He's a good KZbinr :D

[@SeaToby11]

Frankly, Will/IC82 has the best British model train vlog of them all. He definitely has the most subscribers, which reflects his vlogs are very well done. He has had some health issues lately, but we all hope and pray Will is getting better, and we'll see more new videos.

[@westcoastrail2667]

That tractive effort is so high! It beats both the King and Duchess are around 40.00lbs.

[@lparris777]

Nice train

[@themidlandcompoundarchive9430]

lovely got the same loco

[@AMOGLES99]

I like the way the track mat creates the impression that you've got a much more complex layout. Maybe in reality this is not the case, but on the film it's not immediately obvious which track is real and which is printed and that's pretty cool.

[@britishrailwayreviews2177]

love that locomotive

[@SeaToby11]

Frankly I love the 2-8-0, even the American Mikados, or Mikes. While many American railroads had larger locomotives, the Katy or MKT railroad's largest freight locomotive was the Mikado, 2-8-0, and their largest passenger locomotive was the Pacific, 4-6-2.

[@Sillardmanduke]

you are so lucky luv your vids btw :-)

[@mirajali2777]

This just came up in recommended as soon as the video went live

[@SearleD01]

Awesome loco, can't wait to see it in Train Sim.

[@yellowstonethepony7769]

Is it comming to train sim? 1st party or 3rd party?

[@SearleD01]

It will be 3rd party (Digital Traction). goo.gl/JO5Yas

[@yellowstonethepony7769]

Looks cool.

[@JaeV2000]

HI will, great video, you finally have lner coaches to run with your lner locos, the loco is stunning for railroad, my basic controller cept on shorting out, especially with triang stuff, great video will

[@thattrainguy]

They built the first two of the P2s and realised that the A4s streamlining was great for jetting steam away removing the need for smoke deflectors. So the other 5 were built with the same streamlining as the A4s so they are often mistaken for A4s.

[@gatlinnikolas6794]

i dont mean to be so off topic but does any of you know a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I was stupid forgot my account password. I love any help you can offer me

[@barrettjamie1642]

@Gatlin Nikolas Instablaster =)

[@gatlinnikolas6794]

@Barrett Jamie i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@gatlinnikolas6794]

@Barrett Jamie It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my account :D

[@barrettjamie1642]

@Gatlin Nikolas Glad I could help :)

[@rogo23]

I have the very same loco :) it's a real beauty

[@upwellonwards7373]

it is a awesome set and well a review of the P2 done by BRM is impressive it can pull around 20 coaches and it overpowers a heavier kit build version of Thompson's rebuild of the P2

[@michaelswift2471]

Me supposed to do my home work: well maybe just one Two hours later watchs whole channel

[@themanstrains3686]

Michael Swift I’m literally watching this whilst supposed to be doing homework

[@LNERMALLARD4468]

For the sound version of the P2, go to the website rails of sheffield and you will find a TTS Cock o' the North.

[@jackyli1106]

but the sound version dont got sprung buffers

[@jackyli1106]

the sound version also dont have cab detail

[@HA1LILPALAZZO]

yeah considering getting this set one day soon lol

[@HA1LILPALAZZO]

also Thompson ruined the class turning them into Pacifics

[@robfuller6425]

with the short circuiting of the controller, don't worry. When i got m first train set, the western messenger, mine did that for a while, just keep using it and it will eventually stop shorting out and will run a whole lot smoother.

[@shaikrayhan1334]

Set good

[@miscellaneous.7127]

The TTS loco is out and the premium version is lovely. :)

[@kolesoden34]

there is actually going to be 2 new p2s one is 2007 prince of Wales which going made to look like 2001 cock o' the north and the other is going to look like one of the later variants with a streamlined nose. And they already exist as frames because they were cut in 2014

[@glenmears3774]

I believe the p2 is currently in the drawings stage and it's called prince of Wales due to his support of the a1

[@KeithTucker45]

A very nice looking model. It would be interesting to compare it with the more detailed version and the sound version.

[@schuey2113]

Does anyone know the power rating of the P2? Is it something like 9P?

[@iTzWillsta]

Soo close to 40K subs!!!

[@spark9540]

Ayy I know that craft shop. Although I never got that set despite it ALWAYS there XP

[@Luke-li5gj]

The engine looks like if the Flying Scotsman and Mallard had a baby

[@paulelliott3056]

Haha I agree

[@danr7150]

Luke Dunckley yes yes yes

[@a.k.9232]

Luke Dunckley yes

[@oliviaalwen2142]

[@lukenoble3319]

Nice apte in the background. You will have to tell us about that! : )

[@thegamingtrainspotter4582]

He's already done a vid on it

[@TheGodsrighthandman]

Just as an FYI, Mons Meg is a Medieval Cannon or Bombard, built in 1449 for King James II by a maker in Mons, in Flanders, Belgium. She weighs in at @ 6 tonnes and, with a calibre of around 510mm, she threw a projectile weighing some 150kg a distance of 2.5 miles (4 kilometres . . . . ) She's situated in Edinburgh Castle . . . .

[@peterfoxon5498]

They say they will have a rolling chassis by the end of this year! The chassis has been built, the wheels have been made and the cab has also been made.

[@jazzman1626]

The last time I was in a corridor coach was in the 1980s on my way from Glasgow to Oban. Do those coaches have the seats in the compartments? Those compartments didn't have tables in them, only seats with luggage racks above the seats. I miss those coaches.

[@UkTrains129]

I've got the TTS P2 it's a great locomoitve

[@___Ciel___]

will you sould do a load test with the p2

[@alextrubshaw5015]

I've been to portmadog it's really good there did u go to the smaller one or the bigger shop by the harbour

[@keegandocherty3717]

haha cool video

[@spinster4000]

Wow i love american trains so much but these these Scottish steam trains are amazing as well! I love them and would love to have it on my layout, currently I have a American layout but im adding a scottish part soon

[@harrisonfisher4308]

Them maintenance sheets that you have a collection of (to be fair,we all do!) are kinda like them builders plates off scrapped locomotives that crop up occasionally at auctions and sell for 100s. Keep your maintenance sheets because you never know......

[@justinneo4406]

What is your recommended store for model railway in london?

[@PalomboDylan]

Nice model, I I have a picture of this locomotive when gresley decided to put the a4 streamlined front on the loco. He didn't put a whole a4 streamlined body on it, he just put the streamlined smoke box cover over the smoke box and that was it, but I am not completely sure.

[@westcoastrail2667]

How much is this set? I would like to see if I can get it as the engine is brilliant and it also comes with 3 teak coaches which will compliment the 2 I have already. Finally, I can't say no to a bit more track (apart from the huge curves!).

[@Mrtrainlover679]

Really Looking forward to the completion of #2007 Prince of Wales. It'll be Great to see one of this long lost class at speed. Not only that but isn't there another P2 project to make a working replica of Prince of Wales, in her later form that is, with the A4/Buggati styled streamlining. I think they've cut the frames recently or down time ago?

[@streamleazefishhouse]

Through my research the P2 is the most powerful loco in Britian with 193 KN, these are the next heavy haulers worth a mention; Princess coronation class 180KN, GWR King 179KN, LNER Peppercorn A2 179 KN, BR 9F 176KN. Anyone disagree with those figures take it out with Wikipedia :)

[@mitchellhogg4627]

streamleazefishhouse don't trust Wikipedia...

[@ModelMinutes]

I wish Hornby did "modular" train set boxes - so the sleeves for the locomotive and wagons/coaches could be removed and stored separately - I've had a few train sets, dont have room for the boxes so they get thrown, but now I got stock without boxes :( . I make my own storage trays (with foam and things) but it would be nice to be provided with a box. N gauge modellers have their stock in boxes inside sets . . .

[@acynder1]

I cut them whit hot wire so I can extract their storage tray out of the set. Its not hard, but then you cant have them Inside a box, only the froam.

[@4472ify]

Thanks for the review i have been looking for your version for a bit , i am purchasing the railroad versions of this cock 'o' north , tornado & evening star soon, they all look awesome for the prices i have found them for from ehattons , they take £20-30 of the retail price .

[@SeaToby11]

The Hornby Railroad models may not be as detailed as some would prefer, but they look sharp on anyone's layout...

[@belfastbusfan]

i was in that shop a few months ago

[@Licci.PrProj]

YES

[@alfiewhittaker3763]

saw this in tk max and another train set in asda

[@spark9540]

OOOOOH 😱

[@upwellonwards7373]

Hey Will i know your well lms based if i go with the big four but seeing this vid reminded me that there are 2 new build P2's being made and also a LMS loco named The Unknown Warrior

[@stf2222]

Not sure but i thin the W1 class is a watertube locomotive instead of firetube.

[@jerrodp8918]

Is it just me or are the driving wheels a different color than the boiler?

[@hamstreetashfordmr5991]

Will,nice video im a bigginer of hornby because i was into hornby when i was 4 so now im 11 so im getting a set this thursday so i cant wait till i get it by the way nice layout i would recommend some stations there! it would look better if there was. Matthew u

[@lorischahl2466]

Yes

[@akihirozman]

[@mightymackrel5548]

Will, do you have a mailbox video coming out any time soon? I've been waiting for nearly a year to get my two trains back now. Kent.

[@jerrodp8918]

I believe at some point recently he mentioned working on a mailbox vid on his Twitter but idk

[@PalomboDylan]

What I would like to know is how the valve gear works since there is no moving shaft for the timing and stuff. Gresley was one smart man

[@CoalChrome]

could you do a review of the mth ho triplex?

[@frolickingflamingo]

do hornby sell the p2 in the usa?

[@alneptune5251]

I just had a heart attack when he mentioned Portmadog and the model shop!

[@jamtart606]

Ikr, I went there once.

[@worldsofwonder929]

where is your ic82 kids series

[@user-pl1fn6js8u]

intercity 82 can you open a train set called west coast highlander

[@tresandmyclass3494]

I could never leave a critical comment on one of your videos but I've been wondering could use smoke fluid on your locos it would honestly look amazing.

[@kolesoden34]

when are u going to do a tts sound version review

[@ScottPC]

How long has it been out? I swore this was my first train!

[@thevioletvalleyrailway346]

I am pating my self on the back

I want that for my birthday

[@jvdm5412]

Y did u Put it on the set instead of da layout

[@Matty_98]

As far as I know the P2 project has it's frames done.

[@jackcrookes2002]

When will you start uploading more videos regularly?

[@Solaaris1]

He probably never will, he always does updates and stuff that videos will be once a week or whatever. I'm just glad I never sent anything in lol

[@nutfield0013]

He also has to do work on his website, reply to us on twitter

[@SeaToby11]

Will was doing videos every week, sometimes twice a week last year, but he burned out. While I would love to see Will producing a video every day, we all would, we also know deep down in our hearts doing so would burn Will out. It is better to get videos at a healthy pace, for him as well...

[@cookoo4cocopuffs221]

It would be funny if the Zen music stopped with a cartoon tire screech when will checked the buffers and they weren't sprung

[@CoalChrome]

Some american mikados had 5400 lbs of tractive effort. with huge cylinders and small wheels. the color looksmmore like Brunswick green.

[@mitchellhogg4627]

The4014Gamer ForTheWin you think this is brunswick green?........

[@argie8491]

What are the coaches called as I really like the look of them but can't find the cheap version cause I'm a cheapskate aha

[@thebritfarmer]

They are Gresley LNER teaks. Hattons has them for £16 each

[@steveng6271]

caldonian single wheeler in backround?

[@KPTHR3]

Looked up the W1 and that was odd

[@aviation747]

Could you do duke of glouster please

[@thunder230mph6]

BTW, I heard these were fairly good locomotives, but their bogies had a tendency to wear down corridors on railway lines heading towards Scotland.

[@haroldinhoo1655]

How much is this loco?

[@russellsmith1060]

hey intercity82 do you know a good hornby starter set

[@SeaToby11]

Aren't they all good? Probably the cheapest new one is the Caledonian Belle Train Set. But if you like LNER, you really can't go wrong with the Flying Scotsman Train Set. Me, I bought a few years ago a GWR starter set, the Cornishman with a Castle loco and three Pullman coaches.

[@russellsmith1060]

+SeaToby11 but the caledonian belle is now so expensive to find one on ebay

[@SeaToby11]

Brick Boy 31 Model trains is a expensive hobby, no doubt about it. It is as IC82/Will says, you start off with a starter set and then upgrade for the rest of your life, slowly but surely. The key is to show your parents how well you take care of your stuff and their stuff over a long period of time.

[@unlockingsnow8571]

SeaToby11 you got the cornishman first? I got mine a while ago but when I set it up the loco didn’t go the same speeds my DC locos went. The Cornishman for me went really slow even on max speed. Did you have a similar problem?
