5 Trains Perfectly Designed (To Murder Their Occupants) 🚂 History in the Dark 🚂

- Sometimes locomotive design is so bad, so misguided, that the results can be downright lethal.
""Fowler's Ghost" is the nickname given to an experimental fireless 2-4-0 steam locomotive designed by John Fowler and built in 1861 for use on the Metropolitan Railway, London's first underground railway. The broad gauge locomotive used exhaust recondensing techniques and a large quantity of fire bricks to retain heat and prevent the emission of smoke and steam in tunnels."
"The London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) No. 6399 Fury was an unsuccessful British experimental express passenger locomotive. The intention was to save fuel by using high-pressure steam, which is thermodynamically more efficient than low-pressure steam."
"The British Rail Class 220 Voyager is a class of diesel-electric high-speed multiple-unit passenger trains built in Belgium by Bombardier Transportation in 2000 and 2001. They were introduced in 2001 to replace the 20-year-old InterCity 125 and almost 40-year-old Class 47-hauled Mark 2 fleets operating on the Cross Country Route. They were initially operated by Virgin CrossCountry and since 2007 have been operated by CrossCountry."
"The British Rail Class 21 was a type of Type 2 diesel-electric locomotive built by the North British Locomotive Company in Glasgow for British Rail in 1958-1960. They were numbered D6100-D6157. Thirty-eight of the locomotives were withdrawn by August 1968; the rest were rebuilt with bigger engines to become Class 29, although those locos only lasted until 1971."
"Doodlebug or hoodlebug is a nickname in the United States for a type of self-propelled railcar most commonly configured to carry both passengers and freight, often dedicated baggage, mail or express, as in a combine. The name is said to have derived from the perceived insect-like appearance of the units, as well as the slow speeds at which they would doddle or "doodle" down the tracks. Early models were usually powered by a gasoline engine, with either a mechanical drive train or a generator providing electricity to traction motors ("gas-electrics"). In later years, it was common for doodlebugs to be repowered with a diesel engine."

A few notes on the Doodlebug disaster that you missed:
- There were only three survivors on the Doodlebug: the driver, the conductor, and a railroad employee, all of whom managed to jump before the crash.
- The heavy freight train (being double-headed by a pair of PRR I1SA 2-10-0s pulling 73 cars) was not even derailed by the accident.
- The impact with the freight train was so severe that it ruptured the 350 gallon fuel tank. Witnesses reported that fuel, which started burning almost immediately, had been sprayed inside the coach. It was said that flames upwards of 25 feet were shot out from either side of the leading engine as it grinded the car 500 feet down the track before finally coming to a stand.
- Despite firefighters extinguishing the flames in only 45 minutes, the fire was so fierce that bodies could not be retrieved for several hours. Most of the passengers had physically fused to the chairs they sat in from the extreme heat, and rescuers had to make use of hacksaws to remove them from the wreckage.
- Autopsies ultimately concluded that only 9 people had died as a result of the impact, with the rest being killed due to the fire.
- The testimony by the driver was crucial in finding the cause. He stated that he had remembered receiving orders to pull into a siding at Silver Lake, but had no recollection of actually passing it. The first he knew something was amiss was when he spotted the heavy freight train on the same line as him.
- It should be noted that this particular driver had complained about fumes in the cab several times beforehand, but these complaints went unanswered.
So there were no survivors on the train after impact?
@@Crimsonedge1 Only 9 on board died on impact; the rest died in the resulting fire.
The. main safety flaw on the Akron Doodlebug was its roof mounted fuel tank. When the tank ruptured gasoline fell on everyone and the hot engine ignited it.
The motorman suffered a broken skull, which led to concusive amnesia . Therefore he couldn't remember the crash or what led up to it. So the exact reason the car didn't take the siding is a mystery.
The terms "doodlebug" and "hootlebug" come from the cars' exhaust sound, which reminded people of a buzzing insect. I can't see why anyone would think these boxy cars looked like a beetle.
Over in the UK we call, what you call a doodlebug, a woodlouse. A doodlebug in the UK means something very different.
A doodlebug in the UK refers to the German V1 rockets from WW2.
With that I mind you can see why I was always confused that in the US a single railcar is named after a rocket.
I mean the black Beetle I can understand. Haha
In Bristol Uk, we called wood lice tik toks
I think pill bugs (aka roly polies) are also called wood lice. My brother told me that but I could be wrong. And I’m from a U.S state where there are only 3 seasons, Winter, Summer, and Fire Season (As in Spring being Summer, and Summer is Fire Season)
Also known as a slater in some parts of the UK
Other things called 'doodlebugs' are stripped-down vehicles, basically a seat on a chassis, with an engine out front, used for competition pulling at fairs and such. Like a pulling tractor but, smaller and lower power (and budget.)
The the Class 450 Siemens Desiro first came out, they were pretty unreliable and gained the nickname "Doodebugs" after the rockets, since they came from Germany and cut out before they got to London.
"Fowler's Ghost" was probably a bit overthought, in hindsight. Fireless locomotives were eventually achieved by charging up locomotives with steam from stationary boilers, so that they didn't have to make their own.

Train Murder man, you have bequeathed unto us- your humble servants, another amazing video. For which we are eternally grateful!
Thanks for the laughs over the 'lion on a unicycle' - quite lifted my spirits this grey morning.
The 'ghost' wasn't the only 'phantom dud' attributed to a famous engineer - there is the infamous Dean 4-2-4 express tank loco of the GWR. Fitted with Dean's centreless bogies at each end, the single pair of driving wheels were flangeless. It only needed one trip from the shops into the yard to reveal the engine was incapable of staying on the track; Swindon legend is that the works photographer was quietly instructed to drop the glass negative he'd exposed, destroying the evidence of the thing's very existence, and it was quietly scrapped.....
As for doodlebugs, the V1s got the name because of their engine noise, which sounded a bit like a cockchafer. Hence, by sound association, the same name being given the early gasoline-electrics. (So long as you heard a V1, you were all right. When the motor stopped, THEN you worried.....)
On a unicycle? Ugh absolute D I S R E S P E C the BR early crest is a lion standing over the wheel not on a unicycle
I preferred the "Ferret And Dartboard" logo.
That was a very Monty Python dispatching of the British Rail logo.
Another one for yer. Nigel Gresleys LNER class U1 2-8-8-2 garret banking locomotive. Used for banking heavy mineral trains up the Worsborough Bank, Yorkshire, England. They had to travel trough the Silkstone tunnels, two very lonmg and poorly ventalated sections, which were climbed at walking pace. The U1 had a poorly ventilated cab as well which used to fill with smoke, several crew members were rendered unconcious by the fumes and legend has it a guard on a train the u1 was banking was killed by the fumes. In the end a primative breathing apperatus was fitted so the crew could remain alive.
The breathing apparatus consisted of air scoops near track level with respirators in the cab.
Crews refused to share the breathing apparatus as the masks were permanently attached to the hose.
Great video!
Two points for you: 1st, there was a second type of fireless steamer. Largely a type of switcher, these engines would fill their "boiler" - actually a pressure tank, with steam from the local boiler house. This would then be used to move the locomotive like a conventional locomotive. They never had a firebox, as they were usually employed in industrial areas where an open flame or burning embers could trigger a fire or explosion.
Speaking of hazards, you missed a major murder machine: the camelback steam locomotive. With its engineer's cab atop the boiler, if the main rods broke, the shrapnel would slice through the cab, engineer or brake brakeman and all. Furthermore, they often had a miniscule "cab" hanging off the back of the boiler for the fireman's protection. Some of these areas didn't even have a floor deck attached to the backhead. Firemen would stand on the tender and a bouncy bridge plate while shoveling coal into the boiler. Dangerous stuff for all involved.
Keep up the great work! ❤
I have an MTH model of the Camelback and even that looks dangerous.
I would definitely add the ICE 1 (DB Class 401). In 1998, in the Eschede Derailment, a steel tire on one of the passenger cars broke, causing the boogie to get caught at a guide rail at a set of points, ripping the guide rail out, which then pierced the car, while at the same changing the setting of the points, causing the following cars to run over to the parallel rails, and finally crashing into the pillars of a bridge, killing 101 people.
Steel tires were only used in trams before, not in high speed trains.
This is similar to the issue with paper wheels, which were used briefly before being abandoned for the same reasons. They likewise consisted of an iron disk on the axle, a paper maché disk in the middle, and another iron disk with a flange and tire, all bolted together. They were themselves based on wheels made in a similar manner but with wood between the tire and the axle disk.
A.K.A 2 Two trains perfectly designed (to torture HITD). Get it? (That’s a joke coming from a British person too)
If you live in London and were born before WW2, a doodlebug is something very different indeed!
I'd like to state that there is(or was, in this case) a steam powered 'Doodlebug' in the very early 1900's, dubbed the Stanley Steamer(only source of this... hazardous doodlebuh comes from A whistle up the valley, which talked briefly about it. Good book though). It was extremely promising, offering steam heating for the coach and stuff that was standard on normal passenger services with full-size... except it leaked fumes. A lot of them. In the book, it stated the doodlebug rolled right past a station, and when they managed to get on it and stop it, the poor conductor was out cold(fate unknown), overcome by the gases that leaked from the boiler.
And no, they were not built by the same company behind the Stanley Steamer automobiles.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the Rolling Rivers. They didn't get the epithet "Rolling" for being safe.
Also, it's pronounced "bom-bar-di-ay"
Can you link me a video about it? Please reply to me!
@@TheFunnyDictatorlook up 'SECR K and K1 Class'
I've got one: The Pacers.
Lightweight 2 car DMUs that was basically just a 1980's bus body put on top of a truck chassis (I think you call them cars in the US).
You can imagine how 'safe' they were in a crash. Most ridiculous part? They ran from the 1980's till 2020, and only got removed from service because they didn't have disabled toilets.
British priorities for you....
Why would a bus body be bad in a crash?
@@TheTomco11 A 1980s bus. Even with a modern bus though, it would crumple up like paper mache in a collision with a real train. Plus it's strapped to a truck chassis, like early railways coaches, which didn't end well even back then, with the two parts disconnecting in a crash.
@@mattevans4377 A 'bus body indeed but manifestly not one just picked up and plonked onto a set of rail wheels- it was wider for a start or the gap at platforms would have been unacceptable and the 2+3 seating would never have worked and, of course, it had to meet rail crash safety standards or it would never have been allowed on the rails.
What with being basic, initially unreliable, noisy, leaky and having a terrible ride the Pacers were not without their faults (my entry for under-statement of the year) but I recall no safety concerns.
You should do top 5 voodoo engines (supposedly cursed, prone to accidents and catastrophes)
I have a daily doodlebug with a one car consist for two of my branch lines, as they were light rail lines so they were often used for that reason on the railroad in modeling
Fun fact about the voyager is that when travelling along costal raliways in poor weather water gets into the electrics causing th locomotive to breakdown which is not great when they are used in an island nation, the UK.
Another good video.
You wondered why the railway companies were so blasé about carbon monoxide poisoning from the petrol railcars.
Steam locomotive crews were used to getting a dose of CO every time they went through a long tunnel. This would be especially true if the locomotive was working hard. They rarely got fatal doses although what the effect on their overall health was I do not know.
I seem to vaguely remember a serious accident in the 1950s near Birmingham, England but I cannot find any trace of it.
There was definitely one at Bath (England) on 20th November 1929. A heavy goods train was passing through Combe Down Tunnel (1 mile long) which was already filled with smoke from a previous train. The locomotive was labouring up the 1 in 100 (1%) slope and both the driver and fireman lost consciousness. At the end of the tunnel the track slopes down at 1 in 50 (2%) for 2 miles so the runaway train gathered speed.
Despite the efforts of the guard (US: conductor) it crashed in Bath goods yard some 4 miles after the tunnel. The locomotive crew did not regain consciousness before the crash. The fireman would make a full recovery but the driver died on the way to the hospital. Two other people in the yard died when the train hit a building.
This sort of issue was the reason the Swiss were so quick to electrify their Alpine railways -they had several incidents with steam locomotives stalling in tunnels, and if the crew were not quick enough reversing back down, the results were invariably fatal.
It was also the main reason that Southern Pacific use cab forward locomotives

That was a very Monty pythonish joke you pulled there with the fist hitting the logo! Love it!
Exhaust fumes from dmu railcars in England used to leak to the passenger compartment, everywhere. The engines were under the floor and could be accessed by poorly sealed hatches in the passenger compartment floor.
Sometimes you couldn't sit in a carriage because you'd end up wanting to throw up.
They also vibrated so much if you fell asleep on a window it felt like you were having your scull drilled.

Another thing about the 220/221. They are notorious in this country for the smell of toilets in the coaches. If the toilets were bad the coach would reek
Somebody told me it’s because the designers stuck the AC air ducts next to the sewage tank vents!
one thing about the doodlebugs is that they sometimes were connected to a coach, which was referred to as a 'Trailer', which gave the units more seating capacity
A correction to some mythology at 4:08. Fowler had close to nothing to do with the successful A and later B class 4-4-0 tank engines that provided the sole motive power to the Metropolitan Railway for many years. To quote Wikipedia on these A class locomotives after the failure of the Ghost that haunted him :
The tender was received from Beyer Peacock of Manchester for building eighteen locomotives at £2,600 each that would be available in six months. The design of the locomotives is frequently attributed to the Metropolitan Engineer John Fowler, but the design was a development of a locomotive Beyers had built for the Spanish Tudela & Bilbao Railway, Fowler only specifying the driving wheel diameter, axle weight and the ability to navigate sharp curves.
Beyer Peacock were a very capable company designing and constructing very high standard locomotives for long lasting use around the world. Less sales to the hundreds of British railway companies that thought they new better and would nearly all set up their own design and construction workshops. Often producing many short lived designs that were costly failures. Rarely as good as the BP products. Many would have been much better to purchase existing proven designs from Beyer Peacock.
Fowler, like Brunel, were not very good at mechanical engineering unlike the civil, architecture and bridges that they did have expertise in.
The idea the Fowler designed the Met tanks seems to be spread by the Ghost Wikipedia entry based on him specifying what the new engines should be capable of.
You also talked about electric power being better for the underground, but in the 1850s construction era there were no practical electric locomotives, nor would the come into first primitive use until thirty years later. While steam was not ideal on the first London underground lines, condensing steam locomotives were the best available for many years. The stations were designed to help with the issue by all being open to the air only being connected by tunnels. None of the original line stations were in a tunnel as many think. The newer electric subways that made stations in tunnels possible by improving the air quality on these lines. Jago Hazzard has some good vids on these aspects
You need to mention the german class 425 trains in this list too. They are "special" in any way. They don´t have emergency brakes, but just an electric system that informs the driver by a flashing light that the emergency brake was pulled. There were incidents where drivers have fallen asleep, and the train just went going. And they got a very high tech 90s era computer controlled braking system. That prevents flat spots in the wheels at all cost. It automatically releases the brakes by the ammount neccessarry to prevent the wheels from locking up. It happened that because of this trains passed stop signals, and went on for a whole block section of 1 kilometer to the next signal before they finally came to a stop. And that was only the case in flat terrain, when the track went downhill, the trains even got faster despite being in emergency braking...
Bombardier in French is pronounced bomb bud yay. The 220 refit had exhausts that jammed, hence the exhaust fires. The British Rail Class 21 had electrical issues. Early Doodlebugs had the problem of the PRR being unable to figure out how to fix the issue of exhaust leaking into the cabs, but they'd hired engineers to figure out how to fix the problem and since they were hitting dead ends, the accident happened that killed 43 people causing the NTSB to step in and assist the PRR in solving the issue.
I'd say Bom bah dyay, or maybe somewhere in between.
"Bom-bar-dee-eh" is how I've heard Canadians say it, eh...
It will always be bom-ber-deer to me.
We have doodle bugs still, here in the states, owned by Sperry rail services. There is a narrow gauge steam railroad out west that has something that looks like a cross between a Ford model-A and a rail coach, It's called a Galloping Goose quite unique.
You have no idea how hard I laughed when you punched British Railways outta the way🤣🤣🤣🤣
About the company that built the number 3 it’s pronounced Bon-bar-di-é
It’s a company from Québec created by Joseph-Armand Bombardier in the 50’s or 60’s, iirc, to commercialize and build his snow cars (because, you know, Québec winters especially back in the days could be pretty rough) he later created the Skidoos.

Excellent video as always. The old Missouri Southern line that stretches from Leeper to Bunker MO through the boonies in the early 20th century had a doodle bug that locals affectionately called "the moose" due to it odd horn. It mainly ran kids to school in ellington but also would run locals in the area about their business. The line sadly died in the 30s due to the depression and timber in the region drying up.
Don't think I didn't recognize that Railroad Tycoon II music you used in the background.
In Cuyahoga Falls there is a memorial plaque to the Doodlebug disaster near where it happened.

Hey the 2 people steam engines fear and diesels love are Alfred E Perlman and Beeching.
In Australia the state railway of New South Wales had a D/ELECTRIC Loco class 47, that would overheat and shut down or catch fire, due to the Caterpillar power plant engine fuel lines that would break and spray diesel fuel over the exhaust lines, the company that built the locomotive and Cat replaced the fuel lines as a retro fit, which reduced as far as I know this problem, unfortunately on one occasion the replacement of these lines was carried out in a country depot by a Cat technician, he mixed up the fuel line from the fuel pump to one of the cylinders, as result the loco failed that evening twenty odd miles down the track on a mail train, when it threw a piston through the engine block, they were liked by the loco crews, but were very expensive to maintain they lasted from 1972/3 to the early 1990's some were obtained by a private railway group and lasted another ten years, eight still exist of the twenty built either stored or under going restoration.
man, i loved the thing you did with British Rail in the latter part of the video, that was hilarious! XD
"Everypne's favorite person, hahaha. Okay, now GET OUT."
*punch*
I still remember being your 1000th sub lol
I feel like one of the reasons why The Fury was common for cataclysmic failure’s because the Fury’s boiler wasn’t designed to handle the high pressure steam. For example, The Hush Hush’s boiler was designed with this in mind to contain the high pressure steam. The Fury’s boiler just looks like the boiler of a conventional steam locomotive.
I lived just a few miles from Cuyahoga Falls!
I actually loved going there. One day I was biking in a forest with a friend there and we came across a disused water tower from the age of steam, it was surreal.
I live in the DC area now, but I hope that I'll be able to revisit soon.
Now when you mention the nickname "Doodlebug", being British as I am, won't be surprised if someone says Bri'ish. Personally, I expect the railcars in question to be known for exploding if they're nicknamed doodlebugs as a type of German bomb dropped on Britian during WW2 were nicknamed "Doodlebugs". I was surprised that the nickname instead came from their insect like appearance, though I wasn't too far off about the exploding bit.
as much as the 220s won’t kill you, i wouldn’t recommend taking one, they’re absolutely SHIT
oh my 🤣🤣 when the fist bashed the BR lion i couldn't keep it together an started laughing a bit to hard
So whats this one now....
Why is it mostly british ones?
Anyway Ah Fowlers Ghost...
That one experimental underground engine yeah that was back in the REALLY early days of the underground and smoke would remain an issue till the City and South London railway opened with it's fully electric trains.
And Fury... Yeah it exploded a little bit, LNER won that race.
The Voyagers and Class 21's...
Huh i wonder whats with things catching fire.....
Even a Hazzardous goods train going through a tunnel catches fire less often.
Though when that does happen only thing thats left is the tunnel it's self with the bricks being merged into 1 solid stone.
Voyagers should be on the worst trains list from the point of view of the passenger, they are the most uncomfortable trains. They take the joy out of rail travel.

Class 221s, the 5 car 220, is being replaced with the Class 805 (bi train; diesel and electric). The 221s I believe are going to be put into storage though, but not scrapped.
There is due to be a Class 807 as well, which could be replacing the Class 220s
welp, now I want a video by you covering the Doodlebug Disaster! i think it'd be a pretty great subject, considering what you cover. not sure that many people know about it(although AmtrakGuy365 HAS released a video himself about that's quite popular), and so it'd be a great way to let more people know

The 125 will never retire at this point
Every one of these steam engines were known for boiler explosions.
The first version of the railcars were built from small steam locomotives with a coach built on them called railmotors
Great channel and content, especially the whole British Rail thing, seems our locomotives are as bad as our weather, though in BRs and its successors defence I've travelled on them many times and not died even once, although the bifold doors on a class 142 did open once while the train was doing about 50 mph this was shortly before they had the passenger doors altered in the late 80s, indeed they were still our local trains until 2020 keep up the good work though I'm sure there's many more uk trains to annoy you

In Hungary, we call the doodlebug “Pincebogár” wich means “Basement beetle”
I don't think theres really anything wrong with BR- They were just trying to revolutionise rail transport in Britain, which isn't easy now is it? Replacing an entire railway network, and all of the the outdated trains isn't cheap or easy.

A list you should do is locomotives that started off really bad or okay but became a great locomotive after being modified.
I say bombardier as "Bomb-Bar-Dee-Yay"
In UK doodlebug was the slang name for German V1 flying bombs
i knew fury was gonna be on here before i even got to it 🤣
There are more engines and locomotives that wanted to kill anyone who dared to operate them. Maybe a Part 2 is in order
A doodlebug was a pulse jet flying bomb when they run out of fuel they stop and start to fall thats when you count the longer it takes the further away it is before the V2s were sent to England
Bombardier, pronounced bombardi-eh essentially. Got a mate who's the safety engineer who works at the Plymouth branch
@7:00 it’s pronounced “Bom-bar-dee-aye” in English at least. They build a LOT of things for the world market, from ATV’s to Snow-Cats to Locomotives, Railcars and even Aircraft and engines for them.
I got 30sec in but your loud vocal inflections were too grating so I stopped.
In England the German v1 flying bomb was always called Doodlebugs!.
I pronounce Bombardier as Bomb-bard-I-yay. The "R" is silent.
Man Fury is just a Rolling Gas Chamber it's obvious giving a locomotive the Force of a 1.800 was a bad idea luckily it didn't pull another C&O
Heh I wonder if History of the Dark likes lions
7:36 Bombardier it is not a very good company warranty wise a company called Metrolink in California was given the cold shoulder when Metrolink Bombardier to honor their warranty
U know what they say: "Its British engineering" aka it designed with a flaw!
It's pronounced BOM BAR DI ER btw
Also love the Falcon Punch on BR 🤣
With the stress on the BAR, in the French version.
I don’t know, in Canada I heard it pronounced BOMB BAR DI EH, literally if you watch a Canadian news anchor say it, they say it alike that (so do I). Seeing as it is a name of a Canadian I think that is the proper way to say it.
it’s Bombard-yay!
This video series is OK, but it lacks; 1. Video. Who wants to see still pictures? 2. Information. There is too much emotional talking and not enough information about the locomotives being presented, C+
