[@vlogthatrain3152]

Would anyone else love to see her back in steam!!??

[@jaydnconlon5153]

vlogthatrain 31 me

[@barryphillips7327]

Damn right i would! Instead of being stuck in a poxy museum NEVER BEING ALLOWED OUT AGAIN!!!! What a STUPID STUPID STUPID STUPID idea!!!!

[@The-Penniless-Gent]

Shes got fractures on her driving wheels she wouldnt stand it

[@brad2799]

Nice to see two first-of-the-Class survivors running here. Butler-Henderson and the Stirling sure are a wonderful sight.

[@thomasweekley9209]

I never expected to see video footage of Stirling Single No. 1 in operation. Thank you for posting this. I never knew that #1 was operational in preservation.

[@billwilliam836]

She really knows her stuff

[@thekingsman9773]

"There's no one quite like Emily..."

[@marcuscersy2393]

Too true, she gives justice to such an amazing Steam Engine

[@jamesdor5329]

+Barnaby Cooper I like The Engine but I hate Dimly she gives it no justice Trying to replace the most famous pannier tank of the world

[@micawber0190]

Epic Llama slap Damn... most people refer to engines as feminine, but the Stirling is the only one that truly looks feminine! Beautiful and truly majestic.

[@steamgent4592]

Micawber 01 the Midland spinner is graceful and feminine as well.

[@desireetello5755]

SteamGent Emily is the Stirling Single. Speaking of "Single", she's a single lady,

[@sightscreen66]

First time I've ever seen footage of a Stirling single (or indeed any 8ft single) in action. It's so incredibly low revving, it looks good for 150mph!

[@ysmustyattic8352]

It wasn’t going 150 mph

[@Spamcan81]

What an experience it was to ride behind such a magnificent machine.

[@jimayearst2730]

Absolutely the most beautiful steam engine ever and I don't say this lightly.

[@btshalflifegarrysmodayasee9497]

It's Emily From Thomas & Friends In Real Life!

[@ThePanzer6]

Would be great to see these loco's in steam again

[@Familyrailroad5486]

2:17❤

[@Anthonyvideogame]

It’s Emily. Hi Emily!

[@SpongeBobNumber1Fan2003]

Emily Yay

[@andrewcutts7416]

I remember this. It was great to see it running. The line has changed a bit now.

[@Eddy2730]

What an insight! Thanks for uploading this! And what a beautiful engine, too!

[@priscillachapkylo934]

What belle beautiful engine the Singles Sterling engines are workshop masterpiece designer Patrick Sterling. my greetings from United States .

[@CARLOS62B]

Wonderful to see her in action.

[@asd36f]

The Stirling is one of my favourite steam locomotives - you need a photo with someone either standing on the footplate or next to the engine to give you an idea of how big those driving wheels are! The footage also shows at 1:00 the mail carriage that picked up sacks 'on the fly'.

[@Spamcan81]

What an experience it was to ride behind such a mag

[@thameflyer123]

oh for those glorious days

[@johnm4669]

This is how the Thomas & Friends Movie in the Marc Forster should look like this

[@ta455driver]

@paullubliner Yes, I had a cable link from the extension speaker socket of my Elmo ST1200 sound projector to the input of the video camera.. The audio auto gain is a bit of a pain but it cant be helped. There is a resistor in the cable as the 10W projector amplifier was overloading the cam when I first tried this.

[@isacplayzroblox1592]

Emily!!!

[@seriphone]

@hirofan97 - no the Stirling Single has never been made as a powered 00 scale locomotive. There was a plastic model available for many years though and parts could be bought to enable making a powered one up I guess. I have a diorama made up, using the plastic model

[@campainr]

@ta455driver Thanks. Should be back in service after another overhaul soon I've heard.

[@johnm4669]

Emily was in Thomas & Friends!

[@ta455driver]

@campainr That is the former LNER B1 chassis (6)1264 ex Barry scrapyard condition.

[@ZackAttack7492]

Emily

[@slickmicky54]

I was there with my kids, what a great day!

[@marystirling4293]

Yes

[@MrComedy01]

cool, my Great Grandfather was a signalman for the chester region, probably during the days of the L&Y :)

[@Shelfandtabletoplayouts00gauge]

Is this the same loco that's sitting in the train shed at Kirkby Stephen East at the moment?

[@bobbybehrens3833]

That's Emily

[@michellemoreiradasilva2707]

Yes yes

[@mitch917]

Hi Emily

[@bwarrrrk]

nice video. i watched it twice and the second time in 1911 as it sort of goes :P

[@jjjillyeo]

Need to keep producing these. Why did they stop?

[@mattlander9119]

BR found diesels better so that's how steam ended

[@lightchips6164]

Who wants this locomotive to be on Train Simulator 2017

[@gameoholic1994]

I have Trainz: A New Era, so I'm good.

[@Jimmy87nottingham]

brillant vid

[@hssmrg]

Very nice - too bad about the faded colour, but great to see that single driver revolving at speed!

[@ta455driver]

The loss of colour is due to my videoing from the projected screen image..

[@campainr]

What is the loco at 1:55 ?

[@Shelfandtabletoplayouts00gauge]

A bit parky in the winter eh?

[@hirofan97]

i wonder they made a sirling single hornby train

[@sammyb1929]

what a gorgus engine my great great grandfather used to ben an engine driver in the 1870s

[@barryphillips7327]

Good video, poor picture quality, not often you see the big single drive steam locos now.

[@rem4954]

That's Me In Real Life!

[@tiffanymarlow2399]

Emily The Stirling Engine emily, your one of my favorites, in 2 place to Donald and Douglas and after you Is James. The problem is that your not shown as much in the series but you are useful

[@megatwingo]

5*****!

[@trainlover658]

[@Loco-uh6hp]

I like the class, but boo Emily.

[@tiffanymarlow2399]

Loco4472 no I like Emily

[@Anthonyvideogame]

Leave Emily alone

[@marystirling4293]
