Nice running, weathering, n sound. What scale is the loco? And the track gauge 0, 0n3, Gauge 1?
The locomotive is a Bachman Anniversary Edition and the track is 45mm or G scale thanks for your comment.
@@billbivings4125 G-scale doesn't mean anything. If u meant it's of LGB scale, it's 1/22.5 scale. So what's the FRACTIONAL scale is ur Bachmann model? If ur original packing box doesn't tell u, then u can measure ur model's driver wheel diam knowing the prototype's diam, then calculate from therein. It's nut(not) math (like matrix, derivative, summation, partial differential equation, group theory, ring theory etc). It's an EZ Arithmetic ratio calculation.
Every time I see a Garrett I think of Wilson from Home Improvement.😂
I'm guessing No.20, the double atlantic, started life as a pair of bachmann annies which each lost their rear coupled axle?
Yes I started with two new Bachman chassis. I actually cut the middle axel out and then put the ends together. Not an easy task. Thanks for asking.
@@billbivings4125 Now you've got me thinkin'. And there was a very pretty TGR 4-4-2+2-4-4 garratt, the only class ever built with 8 cylinders. Hmm.
@@jonathanj8303I think I know the one😂. Happy modeling
What a crazy-wonderful idea👍👏🏼👍👏🏼👍👏🏼
Hi Bill. Your first Garratt 4-6-4 + 4-6-4 is now in Australia and running on our Sydney Society of Model Engineers track. Regards John
Hey John. Thanks for your comment. I would love to see it running on your track. Would you please send me some pictures or a short video? My email is at the end of each of my UA-cam videos. Thanks so much. Bill
Thanks for letting me know. I’d love some pictures or short video please. Thanks again. Bill
@@billbivings4125 I've emailed some photos and a short video. John
@@billbivings4125 Some photos and a video have been emailed to you Bill. Regards John
Perfection
Thanks for your comment. I have a friend that built a diesel/electric loco on a LGB three axel chassis. It’s all in how you design the locomotive
I think I may have seen this run at Diamond head years ago. I would like to have a nitro electric narrow gauge f scale diesel. Possibly two or three axles built off a Mamod or Roundhouse battery diesel. Wonder if it could be made that small.
That locomotive is badass. 👍
What a fascinating and unique little railway! After reading the Garden Railways article I am looking into the hypertufa material. We have had a large garden here in Idaho for years and when we get another home we hope to have a market garden to sell fresh produce from, a garden railway with edible greenery would be a unique addition!
Looking forward to seeing a total restoration this year in LODI. John Polen
I’ve got it all put back together. All that is left is to put the lettering back on it. See ya in Lodi. Thanks for the comment. Bill
can you build a quadraplex from belgium
Nice to see them steam like that, really nice. Thanks, that is always nice to look at and hear. Do you still let that last (super) Garret steam on your layout or is she more of a display unit, currently? Would love to she her steam again, on your layout. Looks good. Do note it was not just the garret patent that prevented some fun stuff reaching the USA, there is also the Corridor Tender as well. Also patented to all hell and then some. Now what would a streamline Garrett with a corridor tender, look like? Mallard Triplex, failed because the third wheel set was below the tender, no boiler weight pressing it down. I think a properly constructed Garrett Triplex, might actually work quite well. You wouldn't happen to have the lower sections of a 844 and a 4014? Yes a Bigger Boy, lol or would it be, Big Sis(ter)? A what if, if they had tried to make something more powerful then the Big Boy, to counter the modern opponent.
I still have the streamlined double Hudson Garratt. I agree it is fun to run and listen too. I’m currently working on another double Hudson Garratt that is a freight engine. Thanks for the comments.
@@billbivings4125 If you ever do go for another streamline Garrett, would something based on a Duplex Steam Engine, be something? Especially if the tender part is based on a Corridor Tender setup, with possibly a pulled corridor water tender behind it, before the streamline passengier wagons? It would give a nice nose & tail look, I bet. ua-cam.com/video/2RusRdlE-gg/v-deo.html&ab_channel=HighIron ua-cam.com/video/sIFx5oqRBvQ/v-deo.html&ab_channel=TrainofThought
Those are some awesome ideas, I imagine a Corridor Garrett would be tricky, unless you go the simple route and have gangways around the ends. P.S. Imagine what a Garrett Shay would look like!😮
Build a quadruplex steam locomotive
😉👍
Beautiful
Thank you
Please give me it or else I will not be your friend
I want that train please 😩😭😫
❤wish I had the time & resources….
😎👍
:) 👍
I've been wanting to build one of the proposed double K36 locomotives in HOn3 for years, now I'm feeling a little more inspired to do it. Really cool model. Quite an undertaking. I love the that you built a Mallett Garrett.
Would it be possible to draw blueprints or references drawings of them?
This would be a sight to behold if it was real. I can’t even imagine how it would sound
Dear friend, what is that cable crane on the flat wagon? Regards Henry
Hey BKB. The cable crane is just a load for the flat car. Thanks
looks nice cool builds in general
Badass doesn't basically the same colors as my bike that I customized very cool looking paint scheme
looks great!
Greetings from the high plains of Texas.
This is genuinely terrifying. I love it!
Is it just me or does the streamlined U1 look like a steam engine version of the GG1
Nice update today. Thanks for sharing.
good to see you have uploaded again oh and i still love the Garratts
Greetings from the high plains of Texas. I love your imagination and craftsmanship.
hey bill why have not uploaded in 9 months?
Wish Canadian Pacific had built something like this
Are Barry’s chassis still available, I tried to find online, but it looked like they aren’t for sale anymore, not even sure I was at the correct site, kind of a hokey website? Just got my first anniversary set finally, the wonderland flyer, but I have a lot of version 5 and earlier sets in my collection and I’d like to get a couple stronger chassis for a couple locos that I want to pull long trains... namely all my circus series. I was gonna just order Annie replacement chassis from bachmann, but I wanna try Barry’s I hear only good things all over UA-cam about them. Your loco looks killer with all the weathering and grime on it.
I’m not sure if Barry’s Big Train drives are still. I know I really like the ones I have. This loco has pulled 35 cars on curvey track before. Thanks for the comments.
she kinda looks like movi star locomotive that was in back to the future hmmmm which on was it
The back to the future locomotive is the Sierra Railway #3 the spacing between the drivers is a little different.
@@billbivings4125 oh yeah sierra railway 3 but i thought was a loco from prescott arizona?
hey how much you want for that super garratt made out of 2-6-6-2s
Hi, I think I have the engines/tanks from this one. Picked them up off eBay. Been trying to figure out who and where they came from. I think I know part of their story now, but how did they end up in MD, and what happened to the boiler? Rick
Hey Rick. This streamlined Garratt was the first one I built. I sold it to a collector in the Napa Valley CA area. I don’t know what happened to it from there. Can you email me some info if you have some and maybe a couple of pics of what you have. Thanks
Rick. Let me know if your interested in getting it back in running condition. Maybe I can help put it back together. Thanks. Bill
Two interesting clips, how far could st(r)eam-liners have gone? Looking at that streamline locomotive and those streamline wagons..., potentially, far, it's just, a world war happend. Streamline Garrets are all nice and good, but they need proper wagons to go with it. ua-cam.com/video/kn0Zfmgl2sw/v-deo.html&ab_channel=MrImpossiblyBlack ua-cam.com/video/cvWoalQNMrU/v-deo.html&ab_channel=CuriousDroid
nice
love this loco
You'll love this clip, I bet. Some nice high details, from up close, of a Garrett nr:6029, in Australia. ua-cam.com/video/dQ7bz2nzztE/v-deo.html&ab_channel=VideoMitch
I keep finding myself thinking she looks quite good, but is she a Gar-lard or a Mal-ratt?? And some Mallard action for you, pus some Garratt. ua-cam.com/video/C0wmvZTyFYs/v-deo.html&ab_channel=LoveAllTrains ua-cam.com/video/TaN9prVhOiE/v-deo.html&ab_channel=steamfreak3450-Steamtrainsaroundtheworld
plus, not pus
Heh, now that is a good looking one, makes me wonder two things, condenser tender (Germam BR-52/53 & African Class 25 wit condenser tender) & walk true tender (like the Flying Scotsmen has). ua-cam.com/video/WueHGOCP8b8/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Renownvidz ua-cam.com/video/SYEhFeFOeBs/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Adventurescot ua-cam.com/video/sIFx5oqRBvQ/v-deo.html&ab_channel=TrainofThought
Say, a Mallet has the boiler laying on it's two sets of drive wheels in what way? A Garret has it always hanging between two sets of such drive wheels. But what if you apply some Mallet thinking in order to use a longer and thus bigger boiler? Yes, apply Mallet articulation mounting of the boiler, to the Garret, that should let you either turn one end into a Mallet wheel setup (for that water tank) or apply a Metro style engine locomotive, more easily, maybe even both. Really, let this locomotive of yours, run besides a Mallet, compare the way their nose sections turn, see if you can scale up, making a longer and more powerfull locomotive.
Might want to check the most front & back trailing wheel axels, those single axels, either it's the camera frame rate zinking up with the wheel turn or at times, they ain't turning right. Especially the back one seems to have this effect at times. She does look both good and natural, so thumps up.
yes it is finished thanks
is it finished yet?
