Roundhouse 16mm live steam Darjeeling locomotive - first firing out of the box in glorious 4K!
This is our first 4K video for UA-cam. The Roundhouse 16mm class B Darjeeling loco arrived today and rather than test-steam her, Jordan and I thought we would just jump in feet first and set fire to her. And what a great result it was. She is a lovely super-detailed model and no doubt will be a fine workhorse. Please feel free to comment - and if you like the clip, like and subscribe too! Thanks for watching.
This video was shot in 4K on a Canon XC-10 with a Rode Video Mic-X and edited on Adobe Premiere Creative Cloud.

2" scale live steam Allchin on air - from Silvercrest Models
Переглядів 5 тис.3 роки тому
Here is a brief clip of the first run on air of my 2" traction engine. It actually ran surprisingly well out of the box and on very little air too. I did notice when playing the video back that a small shim was missing from one side of the speed regulator, causing it to interfere with the crank. This shim can be easily made out of a small piece of copper pipe. Anyhow, I hope you enjoy this shor...

Cotswold Heritage Thor and Cirrus steam plant - first steam up
Переглядів 2723 роки тому
Following on from a successful test on air, here she is under steam. Still needs a bit of tweaking and should run slower than this, but perhaps with a little more running, this will help. Don't forget to visit the Unofficial Mamod & Other Steam forum, if you like steam models. It is free to join and I have made some great friends there too.

This model was bought 3/4's complete, but missing the chimney, reversing lever and gear, pressure gauge and various other bits and pieces. It was a 100% strip down and rebuild by Dave "the Steam" from the Unofficial Mamod & Other Steam forum and he also added the facility to make it gas-fired.

This is the latest video from Upham Market. Whilst I made this in January 2020, I could not release it until today as it also appears on the August 2020 BRM's magazine, DVD and online presence .

Twin Cylinder Vertical Marine Steam Plant

This one is a bit of a mystery to me. It is either a passable scratch-build or a very good kit. There are no makers stamps on any of the components, but it ticks over quite well and is very quiet too. Restored by Dave 'the Steam' Bull back in June 2019, due to his illness, this is one of the last ones he has done. Let's hope he continues to recover well and we can all persuade him to get out in...

Cotswold Heritage FURY gas-fired Hot Air Engine
Переглядів 4184 роки тому
Hot air engines utilise the difference in pressure from hot and cold air in the cylinder to propel them. The hot air forces the piston one way, to the area of the engine where the air is cooler, which pulls it back in the other direction. Cotswold Heritage are renowned makers of kits and ready-built engines and their "Premiere" range once featured some astounding models. This FURY was purchased...

    For anybody who is interested. There is a minature railway located in a small village in fairbourne wales near barmouth. The railway holds a very special place in my family's heart and they have this loco there. Her name is sherpa and she also has a tender too. Sorry for the shameless plug but families are welcome and so are furry friends too. They have other loco's there too its a fun time.

    Thanks Mark, this is definitely on my wish list. I have visited Darjeeling a couple of times and was really taken by the little railway, it's an absolute marvel that these engines could pull loads up the incredible incline from the plains up to Darjeeling. I think Roundhouse have shown it the respect it deserves. I remember there was always someone sitting on the coal with a hammer breaking up the large pieces, and at least 1 person hoping on and off to operate the switches, heard cows off the track, and arguing with the traffic. Great memories. Oh, and if you're going to weather it, these engines look to have at least 20 years of soot over them, even though I think they hose them down daily. Just a reflection on the environment in which they serve. Beautiful engines and real work horses. Regards from New Zealand.

      I fired mine up the other day, everything went fine except the steam valve fir the injector wouldnt shut all the way mike says the stem becomes thread bound before it shuts all the way they shipped me a spare, hopefully that will work so make a note of that. The valve for the lifter works just fine though..

    My engine now has working headlights, a new steering wheel, a bracket for the pressure gauge, a lubricator cup on top of the cross slide, wood slats on the cab floor, a wood running board but kept the metal tool box, the next thing is to replace the steering chain with one that doesn't bind up under the boiler, then just waiting for some warm weather to light the fire then I hope in the summer there will be lots of steaming, I hope my friend gets his crank shaft fixed by then.

Put a chain on the towing pin also fitted some more pins at rear and front, in process if getting trailer built. Big problem without any water board it was hoping to build a ramp to get it into the car, ramp built but weight too much for one to push up, now done a conversion to my trailer to be able to load and unload on my own.

      @EthansTrains 3 роки тому

      Hi there, I don’t think this channel gives replies as I tried commenting ages ago as I am the previous owner of this layout. Since I know the ins and outs of my build, it wasn’t designed to have a 3rd rail put in and therefore I don’t think it’s possible to do so due to the amount of detail put around the track which would have to be taken up, something no modeller would want to do. I originally wanted my layout set in the late steam era so that’s why the scenery doesn’t really match the Network SouthEast look the new owner has gone for. Hope this helps 🙃
