I am from Pedorido, Portugal. My father and both of my grandparents worked in the mines, which closed in 1991. There were 5 of those locomotives, and one of tem is still on display on the town hall, although not working. João Moutinho also lives here and his house is right where the mines used to be.

not being able to whistle...good lord where's the fun in that? that like...most of the point of having a steam engine! Great video and great series by the way. just stumbled across it and I'm hooked to be honest!

[@hermanschannel4352]

Yeah, it is very dumb, also a little dangerous not having a whistle.

[@lmm]

It's most disappointing. We couldn't use the whistle except for emergencies at the Mid Suffolk Light Railway for quite some time. The bark of the exhaust more than makes up for it though!. Thank you, really glad you're enjoying what we do! The way the railway works its not particularly dangerous, you can hear the Loco coming and the crossings are all manned.

[@sawyerawr5783]

@@lmm I do know here in the US you have to do massive modifications to the crossings if you want to go "Quiet Zone" (That's what we call not being allowed to whistle) and even then you can still sound it at the engineer's discretion. that is one thing I like about the US, you can't completely silence the voice of a loco, you know?

[@lmm]

At the MSLR the whistles worked, we just didn't use them. They tell me that they've made the whistle work down at the Great Bush now so it can be used in emergencies.

Koppels are such clean looking things. Seems like you had a lot of fun with this one! The Germans really were clever about the ergonomics of this thing with that slick toolbox, that firedoor, and some very well laid out controls. That pump is really cool! It's like someone has attached a model engine under the locomotive! Love your channel for showing us all these interesting features that most people wouldn't really notice or point out in great detail.

[@lmm]

Thank you, really happy to hear you're enjoying the Loco stuff. I really love Ming, it's a super little engine. I really want to get a go on one of the bigger o&ks and see what they're like! When they put the steam brake back on and the original handbrake it's going to be superb!

[@RockyRailroadProductions_B0SS]

@@lmm Ooh yes, I've never actually seen a continental style handbrake before, let alone in actual use, sounds quite interesting! Can't wait to see what other interesting equipment you find. I did once ride a not-quite O&K at the Talyllyn Railway ('Douglas') - It was a pretty lively ride as you mentioned with Ming, though it was running at a pretty hot pace for something with tiny wheels and it shook a fair amount, which just made it a more fun ride.

Cute little steamer, I love steam locomotives, my all-time favorite is the Union Pacific Big Boy 4-88-4 articulated, designed for use hauling freight over the Rocky Mountains in the mid-west here in the USA.

I will build something around this size,staring a bit smaller first though ;)

I suppose that they would have made a Loco to any specification that was asked of them really, they're not huge locos to start with so I would be intrested to see one of the smaller ones! There's a couple of 2 foot locos in the UK that people have built, looks like a bit of fun!

My museum has quite an interesting little narrow gauge locomotive. Ex-Defiance Coal Company N°1, a 1921 HK Porter 0-4-0 built to 40-inch narrow gauge, it originally ran on a line roughly 1½ miles from the DCC's two mines to the coal tipple, located in Mentmore, New Mexico. After the mine shut down, a doctor from upstate New York bought it and displayed it at the legendary Rail City, the first operating steam railway museum in the United States. After the doctor passed away, the engine traded hands again, and I believe it was then owned by Mr. Roy Dunwell, whom the engine is named after now. Mr. Dunwell restored the engine to operational condition, and built a special flatbed truck trailer with rollers, so the engine can be fired up and run. It now is owned by the Railroad Museum of Long Island, of which I am a member, and as of this year, it's back to operation once again. I'm officially part of the Steam Team, and as such, I get to operate the little engine when we fire it up. Here is a link of the little engine working: kzbin.info/www/bejne/poS1d4N_aMhjrNU I do strongly suggest coming by and checking it out, it's a really nice loco.

[@svenschlenkrich]

Those Orenstein&Koppel locomotives are quite common on 2ft/600 mm gauge all around the world. The works produced thousands of them from 10-70 HP size. Unfortunatly this one was quite a lot modified to British style features, that spoil the design a bit. The original lever hand brake is much better and faster to use, the new boiler has a different design with this strange long water gauge glasses and the kind of small aditional dome in the cab. Original fitted with 2 Strube suction injectors and swivel windows in the cab. The 2-step valve regulator seems to have some issue, maybe the stoke of the small relief valve is too big, so the main valve starts "jumping". The safety valves are not orginal, but from a ARN. JUNG built loco. Nevertheless it is a great video, well done Lawrie!

@@svenschlenkrich Hi Sven, I look after the locomotive. The regulator has been a headache for years with constant resetting. How far is the relief valve meant to move as currently it has about 3-4 mm? It lets though around 50psi and the main valve is solid as a rock unless you close both completely and open. You'll be pleased to know the lever brake is being refitted and it is being made to look more german again. It was rebuilt by a chap who restores traction engines, hence the unorthodox fittings.

In spite of a few areas that I would like restored, it is a beautiful locomotive! She's fit for the Skarloey Railway on Sodor! Also, your fireman is named James! Just like a rather arrogant engine we all know!

[@lmm]

My James is a great improvement on the character 😂 It's a really nice little Loco. Love having a drive on it!

Olá sou da terra onde essa locomotiva trabalhou tenho algumas fotos dessa máquina a trabalhar nos anos 70.meu pai trabalhou nela assim como toda a minha família. Será possível me enviar fotografias bem detalhadas? Pois eu gostaria de fazer uma réplica em miniatura. Obrigada.

[@lmm]

I have a few photographs of it that I could send.

[@justamalfunctioningai7940]

I feel like if this was my conductor on my train I would honestly feel like I'm in good hands

[@lmm]

Well thank you!

[@humbucker0076]

Do you need some kind of license to drive those locos or can you just do it like that on the private railways?

[@lmm]

Every railway has its own internal examination. I'm a driver at four different railways, so other railways will take those qualifications on board.

[@humbucker0076]

@@lmm okay, thank you

[@collinstvtube6167]

6:10 trespassing people! There a engine that fired up! It could hit you!

[@lmm]

They're crew from the railway. Please don't jump to conclusions.

[@thomasdailey7242]

What language are you speaking?

[@lmm]

English?

[@NJPurling]

Not allowed to whistle.? I thought it was a necessity in law that if a right of way crossed the line at track level to give a warning of your approach. If someone is not paying attention (& is rather deaf) a sharp pull on the whistle would save a potentially very gruesome accident.

[@gerrystepney8805]

NJPurling all crossings are manned on the line, the whistle is available for use however for emergencies only. It’s just how we have to run unfortunately.

Fun

[@lmm]
