Nice one as always Sam. Both the preserved examples are on the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway in Cumbria, and when I was wee lad we always used to go on holiday up that way, and I used to go to the railway often. I got to know some of the volunteers and in the end I got to ride on the footplate of one on a train from Lakeside back to Haverthwaite, (about 3 miles). Weird thing was the liveries they were in at the time, (This was late 1970's early 80's) one was in LNWR fully lined black, and the other, the one I rode on, was in full Caladonian blue, not very prototypical, but looked great. I think these days one is in BR lined black and the other in BR lined green - but I've not been to visit for a good few years so it may have changed now. All the best Jon

[@c4m3r0n]

Jon Wisbey that's a mouthful!

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks Jon! Ah glad to hear they're both together - I'd love to see one of these run one day too, I bet it did look amazing in that Caledonian blue too - what a good idea! Thanks for watching, Sam :)

That evening they, lifted Gordon and made a roade of sleepers under his wheels to keep him from the mud. strong ropes for fasten to his backend and James and Henry pulling hard managed to bring him to safety.

[@phil69881]

Lovely looking loco 👍 almost looks real. Great detail on it, especially with the Manchester Newton Heath (26A) shed plate on there too (very accurate for the time). A great loco which formed the basis from the Std 4MT 2-6-4T, with minor changes to appearance and a few mechanical elements. I saw a few BR livery locos knocking about, but I'd say the Hughes "Crab" was the odd one out there.

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks Phil - yeah I think the weathering really does make it look real! Yeah that's right - well spotted! :D Thanks for watching, Sam :)

[@gcmet1063]

Another very good review Sam , I used to watch these locos when i used to live in Rickmansworth in the late 1950's when they would take over from the electric locos to haul the London Transport trains over the non electric tracks to Amersham and Aylesbury . The change would be done in less than four minutes which I'm sure I read somewhere was the worlds fastest loco change . David

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks a lot mate - oh it's great to hear you saw them in action! Thanks for the stories! Cheers, Sam :)

[@sharkymcsharknose2979]

The Fairburn is my favorite tank engine and one of my favorite British steam locos. After watching this video you've inspired me to look for a N gauge version to have shipped here to the States.

[@SamsTrains]

Fantastic to hear that - the Fairburns are indeed very attractive! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@dylanlyall7668]

Thank you SO MUCH Sam for doing this locomotive, the fairburn is my favorite tank engine. Dylan

[@SamsTrains]

That’s Martin the Fairburn Tank. He one of J15’s friends.

[@vincentberkan605]

#2278 was built at Derby Works on July 12th, 1947 for the LMS. She later went under BR ownership in 1948 and was renumbered to 42278. She continued service until April 25th, 1964 when she was withdrawn from service. She was scrapped at Crewe Works on June 30th, 1964 at the age of 16, 1 month shy of her 17th birthday.

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks for the info as always Vincent, much appreciated! Thanks for watching, Sam :)

These 4MTs are one of my favourite tank engines. Great review. I was just wondering what that music was near the best ~Lykos

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks so much Lykos - that's great to hear! I forget the name of that one now - but you should be able to shazam it! :D Thanks for watching, Sam :)

[@theaussiebritt8948]

I don't know what it is, but when it comes to models, I adore large tank engines like this one, as well as the smaller tender engines like the Bachmann Ivatt 2mt. Thanks very much for this review Sam!

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks a lot mate - I feel exactly the same way - really glad you enjoyed it! :D Cheers, Sam :)

[@smalllocoguy770]

Its a great loco just not what i run i do have some lms locos but most of it is GWR BR and LNER aswell as privit locos. I also picked up a wrenn sir nigel gresley for £64 aswell as a triang baltic locomotive. And what you sed about the painted cab it all comes down to what loco it is like a dean goods would need it and a bigger tender loco would not matter as much.

[@SamsTrains]

That's okay mate! Oh very nice - that's not a bad price at all - enjoy your finds mate! :D Cheers, Sam :)

[@kenjimaurerfromdisneyland2001]

@@SamsTrains Can you do the BLUEBELL P Class?

[@TomPrickVixen]

I had a long thinking of witch big 2-6-4 Bachmann tank i like more, but I choose the Standard Class 4MT tank, somehow that's more matches my liking, but this looks fair(burn) too.

[@TomPrickVixen]

I have a motor issue too: my Liliput (part of the Bachmann group) D13 always was hot when i run it, ever since i brought it as new. I believed it was do it's own train is quite heavy, and i mostly ran with it - and it run well anyway. But last weekend on the 3rd day of a model-show, it got slower and noisier, so i took out the motor and gave direct 9 volts to it , and after 1 minute i drop it because it got so hot (might explains why 2 decoder died in it so far). Hopefully i can order a replacement motor, and a tireless spare wheel for it.

[@c4m3r0n]

Tom PrickVixen Nice pun hahaha

[@SamsTrains]

Yeah I like the 4MT too, and you're right, it is similar! Hmm yes that definitely doesn't sound too good - sounds like it's passing too much current to me! Hope you can get it sorted though mate! :3 Thanks for watching, Sam :)

[@armedreptile7889]

The Fairburn 4mt and the standard 4mt have to be the best looking tank locos. I'm sure I will get lots of grief for that haha.

[@SamsTrains]

I think so too - they're just brilliant looking aren't they? :3 Thanks for watching, Sam :)

[@rynodynomyte2755]

Check if the smoke box door can open. I bought a Bachman fairburn from hattons a few months ago in br black livery and noticed that the smoke box door can open which was a surprise but an interesting feature :)

[@SamsTrains]

Ah really? I did try to open it I think, but it was proving difficult, so I stopped trying for fear of breaking it! Thanks for watching, Sam :)

[@mercury7590]

Gotta admit, that plain black fits a big brawny tank engine like that. Makes it look like the engine is more interesting in just getting its work done as opposed to prancing about, making a show out of everything.

Yeah I agree with you - it looks pretty decent doesn't it?! Thanks for watching - Sam :)

Hello Sam, very nice looking locomotive. The only ones I have 2-6-4 are Wrenn. Have found the Bachmann new logo one at an Australian shop site. You are lucky to have so many model shops , fairs and auctions in the Uk. My nearest model shop is a 8 hr round trip, fuel at $1.30 a litre in a V6 215kw motor makes it a little expensive, that is why I buy most of my new requirements from the Uk. Have a happy easter and keep warm, I'm trying to keep cool. Regards John from Oz.

[@SamsTrains]

That's good to hear mate - you can't go wrong with the Wrenn ones anyway! Yes I suppose we are very lucky - though I actually order most of my stuff these days - it's rare that I purchase anything in person (train fairs every couple of months are about the extent of it!) Thanks for watching, Sam :)

[@Drewioawesome]

Man your vids are great, i want fairburn, ivatt class 2, and the sentel shunter!

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks so much mate - yeah the Fairburns are awesome! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@alandavis5950]

Thanks for your objective nd systematic reviews. A couple of questions. With your accumulated experience, do the majority of your review samples turn out to be typical of the production run, or single "rogue" examples? Also, do any of your disappointing trains impfove over a longer period of use? Keep it up!

I would like to see Locomotion Models produce the Stanier 3 cylinder 4MT and LTSR Class 79 via Hornby next year because since I am considering doing a layout of Southend On Sea and Southend East in the days of the LMS in the 1930s in 00 Gauge and since I am an admirer of former Love Island contestant Megan Barton-Hanson myself I would have the layout built for her to remember me by.

Brilliant the ideal relief to the Covid madness. Taking all steam locomotives combined from origin to 1962, the exact corellation of tank to tender engines was 2 tanks to every 1 tender engine which just goes to show how nerdy we all are!

Glad to hear that Leroy - back when things made sense! Thanks for watching, Sam :)

Hi Sam nice review this model is also Belle from the Thomas CGI show she is a BR Standard 4mt tank though she is in dark blue with fire hoses on her tanks.

Thank you! :D

[@thesplendidredengine5james865]

Nice video Sam, have you got an LMS 4MT tanks with BR on the tanks? I'm gonna get some new locos soon:)

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks mate! No I don't have that yet - but I wouldn't mind getting one! :D Cheers, Sam :)

[@troutandsalmongamingbishop1376]

Also I have one of those in lms black Tony;)

[@SamsTrains]

That's great Tony - enjoy her! :D Cheers, Sam :)

[@a.r.productions]

The odd one out was the lms crab :)

[@SamsTrains]

Well spotted mate, that's the one! :D Cheers, Sam :)

[@thezucchinis909]

Do you prefer Hornby or Bachmann

[@SamsTrains]

If I had to pick, I'd say Hornby - but both produce good models, and equally both have produced bad ones! Thanks for watching, Sam :)

Joand So I don't know I don't have any. Im more of a wooden guy

[@thezucchinis909]

Gwrguy 17 ok I like to hear what u like!

[@thezucchinis909]

Sam'sTrains agreed

[@c4m3r0n]

I'd say Hornby. Because, in my opinion, they make more and better models however both Hornby and Bachman have made their fair share of crummy models

i noticed that you have dc locomotives. and you can only run two or more locos at the exact same speed in dc, but you were able to control the difference in speed just like dcc (for example. one is going at 12 kph, and the other is going 56 kph). can you make a video to explane this. I want to do this when i make a model railroad

[@SamsTrains]

Hi Isabel - yeah in this video I was using DC, but I do have a DCC system, which I plug in and use on my DCC locos! Yeah sure - I should make some DCC videos! :D Thanks for watching, Sam :)
