Ah crap I missed it. It’s already 2025 now.

We’re all three engines cab forward engines?

6:32 looks like an LNWR Bloomer

can we all agree that pet is an absolutely tiny engine and deserves to be protected at all costs cornwall is cool and very interesting too

omg i love this little engine shes so tiny :D

aww its so tiny

Agreed, a great building and organist.

The way early rail put the rails on separate blocks instead of joining them together like sleepers, seems like it would slowly push the rails apart and expand the gauge over time. Gives space for the horse to pull the train though i suppose.

the idea of mounting the axleboxs directly to the boiler does not spark joy

A fantastic video with some excellent history. Steam is all well and excellent, but you have another historical loco at the Foxfield, (that you gave me a private tour of,) that I'd love to see a video covering.

"That what matters most in life isn't believing the right things, but in doing the right things: By showing love, respect, tolerance and inclusion" I think that this position is a "civil" position that can be supported indipendently from personal religious beliefs. Do not husrt each other. Let's act this way simply because we all are humans. Feel free to add your personal religious flavour to your acting, but do not hurt others. It's my personal opinion too, even if I think that aggressors must be stopped to protect the attacked. "Buon Natale, anche se in ritardo. Che il ritardo sia dovuto alle barriere doganali post brexit? :)" (Google offers a fine translation :) )

Anthony, it has just occurred to me that you might be an organist and the soundtrack of each of your videos is of you playing…. Am I on the right track?

I got my Hornby model of it recently . very pleased

Merry Christmas and happy holidays Anthony 😊👍

Great video of a lovely Church.Hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year have a good 2025.😊

I’m definitely building a LEGO model of this locomotive.

Beautiful building, beautiful music. Merry Christmas back at you.

Lovely played piece. Merry Christmas, Anthony. 🎄

Amazing playing! I can definitely picture this being in one of your videos on early locomotives, happy Christmas my friend

VIN #1

Can you please tell me a bit about the piston and cylinder you show in min. 1:57? Which engine did it come from and in which part of the coalbrookdale museum can we find it?

One of those surviving Brunel broad gauge engines in the Azores had a cosmetic restoration.

No.1 was recently damaged while being moved due to site renovations. Supposedly, thr rumours are it is damaged beyond repair and will be scrapped.

Interesting; I hadn't known about a British-built PRR locomotive. It seems inevitable, though, that it was a one-of-a-kind locomotive. British steam locomotives were generally lighter and less powerful than American locomotives and had a look that was quite different from American locomotives. This one, I think, just looked awkward with a cowcatcher and large cab and American headlight and such; and can we imagine future, larger British locomotives on American railroads--a 2-10-2 or a 2-8-8-2? Not happening. An American Garratt might have been interesting--but still, too British to really fit on an American railroad. . .

where are the flanges?

Could you please do a video on the Campbell 4-4-0 locomotive of the philadelphia and reading railroad

Could you please do a video on the norris locomotive works because I didn't know what you said about norris locomotive works, but I think it would be interesting. Also, was norris the first to build 4-2-0 locomotives?

nice to see a new video! :)

$6k (over 30%) tariff will be why UK manufacturers didnt get a look in US markets.

Sometimes, a part of me wishes that Charles Dickens (LNWR No. 955) was also preserved as it clocked up 1,000,000 miles in under 10 years and 2,000,000 miles in a little over 20 years. Still, I do believe Hardwicke deserves its fame, even if the engine is the sole survivor of Webb's Porter (2-4-0) tender engines.

Fly high, Smokey Joe. You would've loved the Shinkansen. (Also definitely agree, the Caledonian's light blue is absolutely gorgeous.)

Great video, and it's nice to see you back on UA-cam. It's an interesting video about Beyer Peacock and Company trying to break out in America. Look like a lovely locomotive

Good to see you again Anthony. This was an interesting one, I was not aware that the Webb compound system had been tested on the Pennsy railroad. Just FYI the "ch" in Schenectady is pronounced hard like a "k" , ie "Skenectady". I believe it was named by Dutch settlers. Later, Alco (American Locomotive Company) had a huge locomotive building shop there. Cheers from Canada.

Beautiful Locomotive Pics and this Period in History Must Have been Very Exiting Times to Experience , tho I’m Struggling to Comprehend how all the Separately Engineered Components were Available to Make Just 1 Locomotive, Let Alone all the Variables discussed here, considering the Basic Lack of Accessibility & Technological Abilities of the “Time”we have been led to believe in our History. How would The Chairman of a Company be Able to Make Basic Comparisons between Suitable Machines, or Approve a Suitable Locomotive design and “Performance Package” from Thousands of Miles Away without at least seeing an Image? The Logistical Process involved in Component Design, Manufacture, Delivery and Assembly, Testing, Paint and Final Finish, Boggles my Mind, and Then when all that is Completed Transporting a 50 Ton Machine 5000 plus Miles Across an Ocean, which at the Time would have Taken at Least 1 Week on the Water as Well as the The Journey at Either End, thousands of Pounds of Specialised Engineering & investment Bobbing Around in the Atlantic at the Mercy of the Elements? Was there a Technical team of Engineers StateSide who knew how to Operate the Machine to its Best Potential or did they Send a Specialist Team with the Loco? Many Folks See these Stories thru Rose Tinted Specs & Don’t Question the Practicalities of Such a Venture, when Supposedly folks Travelled by Horse and Cart and Long Distance Communication was by Loud Hailer 📣 Although this is a Nicely Detailed, Researched and Well Presented Video, it’s Overshadowed for me by too many Improbabilities to fully accept as an Historical Account, more like a Romantic Novel Version of “Events”.

We are SO BACK!

Will you be doing 2512 next?

Very interesting Anthony. I enjoyed your explanation of a complex subject.

this feels nice, watching these videos are just nice.

Ah he’s back from his wander in afk land haha nice video Anthony good to see ya back

Its always a good day when there is a new Rail Story!

Forget the streamliners, this beauty was the first PRR duplex. Crazy how it took almost 50 years to try the concept again, but clearly they hadn’t given up on compounds yet!

A British engine wearing yankee accoutrements, very dashing, very demure 💅

She looks good with that American cab.

Welcome back. Hurrah!

This would a been a great locomotive to see in preservation, but given the time frame of when it was built I get it. Either way at least it’s cool that the PRR gave British locomotive builders a shot. Overall great video!

There were Beyer-Peacock locomotives on the Canadian National,out of Montreal,and they were Electrics,so the PRR,1320,was the only Steam engine,that was exported to the US! As an aside,Alco had the License to build Garretts,from Beyer-Peacock,and had a proposal,for the Canadian Pacific,[never built]! Oh,yes,Beyer had a connection to the Manchester,Sheffield,and Lincolnshire,as he worked at Gorton Works! The MS&L,is better known as the Great Central! See George Dow's Three volume history,most interesting! Thank you 😇 😊!

bro came back like he wasn't gone 8 months

This was a very interesting video about a very interesting one-off.

Amazing to see your video! Glad to see you back, hopefully it's not too long a wait for the next
