Trangkil turns 50 at the Statfold Barn Railway - Chasing Dinosaurs Episode 6.

[@18robsmith]

Stafold Barn is a very dangerous place - I nearly lost my head last time I was there, due to the continuous rapid spinning to see what was happening over there

[@lmm]

Ah it happened to you too!

[@gquayle]

One of the amazing things is that Prince was preserved about 17 years before Trangkil No 4 was built.

[@Warbler-Productions]

A few corrections, Hastings is the oldest steamable Hunslet, Hodbarrow in the Museum is 6 years older but won’t be returned to steam. Prince was not England works number 2 (that was a road loco, but is only Ffestiniog fleet number 2 and was the third of the four small Englands to arrive after Mountaineer and Princess, he is also the oldest steam locomotive still in operation for the railway for which it was built anywhere in the world in any gauge. Next weekend sees the celebration of 150 years of the Quarry Hunslet type of loco and will see a small engine line up (with the exception of Isaac appearing) I was the duty guard on the train with Prince and Saccharine all weekend, should be in the same line next weekend and would love to say hello if you visit again.

Is it just me or do those saddletank locos Trangkil and Howard look very alike to Kerr, Stuart standard designs?

Lovely work Lawrie, really enjoyable video. I am just wondering what is happening with that little secret video you tried to film over the Easter weekend, (I won't say what it is as I know you want it to be a surprise) It is just I was there and I saw you and I also the 'thing' that broke. Did you get enough footage or will you be filming it again once the fault has being sorted. Whenever it is finished, I will still be expecting an amazing video, but knowing you, and all the effort you put in for the sake of us on the internet, I'm sure you won't disappoint. The amount of work you put in to all this and all the time you spend doing this to produce such amazing content really is a testament to you. Many thanks for the upload today, and all the best.

[@lmm]

The thing that failed needs more footage to complete, the other things we shot look good, and hopefully will be off for review shortly!

[@heartland96a]

A look at the coupling system would have been interesting , guessing it was link and pin , what of the chains hanging below on the goods wagons

[@lmm]

I'll bare that in mind for the next visit

[@18robsmith]

Most (all?) the stock is fitted with a form of "chopper", very similar to that used by the FR. It's a combined buffer and coupler. The coupler is (crudely) two hooks loosely mounted on eccentric pins which have weights on them. Drop the hooks over the buffer on the other vehicle and spin the weights to close the gap. The dangling chains are there so the wagons can be coupled to stock without the chopper couplers, but with chain hooks.

[@heartland96a]
