it is no 957 (52044)

Thanks for posting. I'm a bit of a museum freak and this was one of the best museums I have ever visited. It was ahead of its time with being interractive and child friendly. I took groups of children there on many occasions. Sadly, it was rarely well patronised but it was a great loss to East Yorkshire and the whole country when it was closed down and the exhibits dispersed. The site today is split between yet another souless shopping Mall and housing.

Pity it's closed. Thanks for posting. 👍🇦🇺🇦🇺

Great to hear the late Bob Symes narrating; the day we went no trains were running due to shortage of siutable volunteers.

Wow

Nice set up , good example off a ground frame

Very impressive video. Lovely ride along the sherwood forest

It looks like a miniature class 66, a class 6.6?

I paid a visit to that line. On the day it was shut!

out of interest, what video is this a snippet of?

Amazing view, excellent camera positioning. Good job

Really love this love them putting coal in fantastic

I used to love Pickering Traction Engine Rally, that I believe will possibly be making a comeback, next year!

Great video's

Great vid, thanks for posting👌

Interesting event. Thanks for sharing this great video

RIP Rodger

Someone will know better than me but didnt 46009 haul a rake of Deltics to the scrap line at Doncaster.

I grew up nearby and remember being taken by my cousins on the final passenger train on the now lifted section between Plumpton Junction and Haverthwaite. The works shown at 3:20 aren't the old ironworks mentioned in the commentary but the dolly blue factory run by Reckitt & Colman which is now the Whitewater hotel. It was converted in the early to mid 1980s - I actually worked on the conversion as one of my earliest jobs.

A beautiful sight I will go on the train next time I visit the IOM

It was the Central Electricity Generating Board (CEGB) who conducted this test in 1984. British Energy didn't exist until around 1996.

Thats my petter av1 at along with my grandads lister d and lister diesel,its a real shame that the lincoln steam fest closed it gates for the last time last year 😢

40 years ago already.

This crash test was a farce. The train consisted of only 3 coaches, when a normal passenger train in those days was 11 coaches, give or take. Had this been a full-length train the force of the collision would have been at least 10 times stronger, and the outcome far more realistic. But of course the test had to be fixed, because the flask had to be found to be intact afterwards. I saw this at the time, I was critical of it then and remain so today.

Good old days

Poor old girl! 😢

I saw on the evening news in the same year it happened. But I've seen this also on UA-cam in another video

Beautiful steam locomotive

'Cask deformation was minimal!'

I used to haul cobalt 60 from Canada to Syracuse NY, 3 containers about the size of 1/2 of a refrigerator, each weighed 11,000 lbs.

What a waste of a Peak......

Closely involved in Operation Smash Hit - as a senior publicity officer for the CEGB at the time - was Discworld author Terry Pratchett. As Terry's biographer Rob Wilkins tells us, following on the event, a stock joke became: 'Now let's see them try that with a British Rail sandwich!'.

Poor train :(

Interesting to note how well the mark 1 coaching stock survived the collision. There was no over riding of the vehicles except at the loco end where the buckeye couplers were not used, and everything remained basically upright and in line.

I have been involved in the carriage of spent nuclear rods from the de comisioning of the valiant class submarine from Devonport to HMS Vulcan in Thurso and not once felt lntimidated in carrying out my work the reason is I am a trained professional driver who knows how to do his duty with the proper work ethics

I suspect it was the CEGB in 1984!

Why does 46009s data plate describe it as class 45/0? Both 12 cylinder sulzers, but class 45 crompton parkinson electrics, class 46, Brush.

I have followed its fortunes since it was founded. i do wish there were more brown heritage signs as from the Mansfield direction the roads are a series of small ones with sudden turns and a satnav is essential. I went to the Steampunk festival last year(?)and the only time I can go upstairs wearing a sword on a tramcar!

Note the off loading rail ramp bottom left in opening sequence

Good shot of Graham Withers at 0:55
