Extremely beautiful locos, I wish more of them had been saved
Yes but better with a q class tender...
We all do
Why they didn't save just one loco from each class i'll never know
I know someone is going to hate me for this...but that engine reminds me of Edward from Thomas and Friends.
Agreed.
it does really, not the original K2, but more of a "modified" one as stated in Edwards history.
The outline and piping are different
I think that if some people see a 4-4-0 then they will automatically think it looks like Edward
It does, although the piping is different and the funnel far too short.
I remember when the T9 was at the Dean Forest Railway with Met 1 and the Beattie Well Tank during the Flour Mill Steam Gala, 2nd July 2016, It was really a enjoyable experience riding behind the T9. Great Video
I love this locomotive... Simple but beautiful... Awesome...👍👍👍😉
Last time I saw this T9 she had pulled into Bodmin General and got her reverser gears stuck and had to be dragged out of the station for a quick repair by a little GWR pannier tank... Made my day seeing that
these sole SLIPs are pretty good
Just to let everybody know, because I said the steam locomotive looks exactly like Edward the blue engine.
The truth is if you have an original copy of the book The Three Railway engines, Edward looks like a different-looking with a really tall funnel and a big dome on top of his boiler. A lot of people claim that the steam locomotive they are using to say of what Edward is, he basically looks like one of the 8 older steam locomotives the Furness Railway K2s. But mainly on the first original book of the three Railway engines of the Railway Series, because if you look at Edward on those original illustrations he was completely different. And looked exactly one of the original 8 older steam locomotives, the Furness Railway K2s.
But then when the Rev W awdry and the Publishers was displeased with the original illustrations, when the three Railway engines was first published. They brought in a different artist and illustrator to provide better Quality and better looking scenery, The View and making the engine characters look more realistic. Even though they were a little cartoony, but still the way the artist as an illustrator did it was really good, and of course it was the artwork and I think still to this day the artwork that children appreciate.
Because not only the artwork was cartoony, and had realistic Basics throughout the creativity of the illustrations. But the Publishers said that they were really friendly artwork, so no wonder children appreciated it. The illustrations and artwork that were done by C Regional Dobby.
Anyway when C Regional Dobby took over as the illustrator, after the disapproval of the original artwork from the first publish books of the three Railway engines. Of course he made Gordon look more realistic, and looking like a real A3 Pacific steam locomotive. He even made Henry look more realistic, making Henry to look like a real big steam locomotive almost twice the size as Gordon. With Henry's original steam locomotive design, that hardcore Thomas fans and probably the Awdry family claim for Henry's original steam locomotive design to be a mix between an A1 Pacific and a C1 Atlantic. (And yes until the book Henry the Green Engine, C Regional Dobby redesign Henry to look like a 5MT black 5 steam locomotive.)
But anyway unlike the original design of Edward the blue engine the Furness Railway K2, from the original illustrations of the first published three Railway engines book. Because from those illustrations it made Edward to look like a older looking steam locomotive, with a really tall funnel and a big dome on the top of his boiler. But anyway that was Edwards original design, from the original first published three Railway engines storybook, with the original illustrations and the original design of Edward.
Because when C Regional Dobby took over later on, he gave a really different design for Edward. So not only we see it from the original C Regional Dobby artwork and illustrations, from the books of the three Railway engines to Percy the small engine. And then later on the design of Edward from those illustrations and artwork, continued with the other books later on. But the design of Edward made by C Regional Dobby, was improved for the TV show of Thomas and Friends. From the model animation to the current CGI animation.
So if you look at both the TV show both model and CGI, and the original railway series storybooks. Edward with his current looking steam locomotive design, looks exactly like this steam locomotive from this video.
So I should say Edwards original steam locomotive design from the ill-fated original illustrations and artwork, when the three Railway engines was first published back in 1945. Was based on one of the eight older steam locomotives Furness Railway K2s which no longer exist.
But Edward's secondary and current design from C Regional Dobby's illustrations and artwork, for The Railway Series books later on. along with the other books of other illustrations and artwork, of Edward's secondary and current design later on, and the TV show. That secondary and current design of Edward the blue engine, looks exactly like this steam locomotive from this video the LSWR T9 steam locomotive.
Edwards original design was supposed to be the Furness Railway K2 steam locomotive, but now Edward looks like the LSWR T9 steam locomotive.
Even though the Furness Railway K2 steam locomotives are supposed to be older then LSWR T9 steam locomotives, but the K2 steam locomotives no longer exist because all eight of them have been scrapped. I guess so far the oldest steam locomotive in England is the LSWR T9 steam locomotive, and I guess the steam locomotive is perhaps the oldest locomotive in all of the UK
Actually the oldest steam locomotive in all of the UK is Trevithick's "Coalbrookdale" locomotive built in 1802
Probably my favourite Victorian locomotive
Can’t quite say why, but I’ve taken a good liking to this engine. It’s a charming little machine. Would love to see her in action.
Rumour has it that in the dying days of BR they managed to get a T9 to hit 100mph, can't be sure where but I think it might have been the Kent Coast line.
More likely to be somewhere in the West Country, possibly deputising for a Bulleid on the ACE?
Where did you hear about that? That would be interesting to watch or ride
These little bite sized eps are great, but it'd be great to see a full episode.
"...Nearly"? Is that to say you're not a T9 fan yourself, Chris?
Great Video as always, sadly (after working on her) I feel that Bodmin and Wenford have permanently knackered this amazing icon
It's looks kinda weird with GWR locos surrounding it but great vid
Just about recovered from our last journey behind her and a Black Five up from Alton last weekend!!!
the T9 is Nicholous
Nice video! 120 was my first tender engine for haulage!
This steam locomotive looks exactly like Edward the blue engine
I'm a big Edward fan
Yeah, but this was not the loco Edward was based on, that'd be the Furness K2 locomotive
@@sir.boxyboi me 2 and Thomas
A rather handsome engine, I like it.
Personally, I think this looks more like Edward unlike the K2s
Superb work mate, another great sole SLIP. Cheers, Jack
This is the blue engine #2 of the NWR, equivalent, by far,
Saw it on swanage
Years built:1899-1901
I like her in pre grouping livery.
Dragon Zilla Utterly appalling that a pre-grouping locomotive should be presented in this non-contemporary livery. Leave BR livery for BR locomotives!
+bingola45 Any engine can any livery as long as it worn during service. The owners decide the colour.
John trainfan101 An engine can have any livery its owner wants. As far as I'm aware, there are no restrictions on the colour of privately-owned railway rolling stock.
In my opinion, it is utterly appalling to present a unique, historic locomotive in a livery which represents that of a second or third owner.
I want to see it as it was when Webb unveiled it, not how it was on its way to scrapping.
Webb? Drummond, you mean. Webb locos, ironically, wore exactly the same livery as this - black with red and white lining. Where do you think it came from? Riddles was a Crewe man through and through. BTW, LSWR livery on this loco would be inauthentic unless the superheater, extended smokebox and stovepipe chimney were removed...
Sole slip on the wainwright D class?
OH MY GOD IS THAT EDWARD BROTHER!?
Why do people get upset when people associate this with Thomas the tank engine? Honestly I highly doubt if I wasn’t introduced to that show I wouldn’t be still at age 35 looking at REAL steam trains to find out the histor.
Not really Thomas, but Edward.
gordon: the driver won’t choose you again he wants strong engines like us
Hello
Hmm…I wonder. Do you have any plans to review the LNER's surviving 0-4-0 tanks? Particularly the Y5?
1:48 real life counterpart of Edward the blue engine
Edward Is A Furness Railway K2 4-4-0
Alco The Train Man still the closest existing engine to Edward
Very nice. How about doing the Peppercorn A1 and A2s next for the next sole slips?
***** It was just a suggestion.
Hi Edward.
T9 is not edward but the shape is perfect for edward
the reason why it could be famous is that it is a 4-4-0 and thanks to a certain E2 painted blue, the young enthusiast take for Edward, plus it could also be that long tender, who knows. But everyone is talking about Edward just because that they are both 4-4-0s, which is like saying that a K1 looks like a mini Henry
omg its edward
No
Edward is back! Yay
Edward Is A Furness Railway K2 4-4-0
@@alco1252 but this one is similar
Looks just like a k2 but different tender
No
the tender wheels. Very unconventional the way they aren't covered in any way, which makes them look kinda weird, but not terrible.
That engine looks like edward
i thought 4-4-0 they never existed nowdays
How old is this locomotive?
I believe T9 no.120 came from a batch of the T9’s created in 1899, so no.120 is now - somewhat amusingly - 120 years old.
@@PGW85Productions wow
Nice One There Mate Can U Do A Video On The M7 Drummonds In The Next Few Episodes Thanks
He's focusing on testing Sole SLIP & getting the DVD Campaign finished before anything else btw.
Technically, he can't, there's 2! :D JK, would love to see that one! Live quite close to 30053!
TTAMTWASOOC Well that's actually true, there has to be a lone survivor to make is a Sole SLIP, aka a locomotive like the LNWR Coal Tank No. 1054 or the L&YR Class 5 No. 1008, those 2 are SOLE survivors, meaning only 1 of its kind is left.
***** I meant that more as, I would love to see it, even though I know it can't happen! :D
It'll happen as a regular SLIPS episode ;).
Edward and the ducks 0:23
What happened to the class 2p?
Edward is that you
Well it isnt Edward's basis since Edward is based of a Furness Railway K2... but i would say this is the closest to represent Edward's real life counterpart
Trains and Music Engine: I think you confused me with a FR K2.
This engine looks like Edward from thomas though they are different classes Edward was a fr k2 "the larger seagull" this engine is a different class.
Jack Feakes Edward doesn't look as close to his basis in the TV series than the Railway Series.
ua-cam.com/video/w2nMN30foR8/v-deo.html
I think that is the engine Hornby made into their Edward
The Bounty Hunter I Love Edward but His Hornby Model was ugly...
That is true, I would say that Henry is probably the only engine that looks close to his real life counterpart
Another thing I would like to know, even though in this video we see only one LSWR T9 steam locomotive completely restored and in operation.
Can anyone tell me if there is a few more T9 steam locomotives completely restored and in operation, in some Railway Museum and a few British Heritage Railways in the UK ?
I really want to know if there is a few more T9 steam locomotives out there in England, because I'm really hoping if it's not just one.
I'm also hoping if one of the few remaining T9 steam locomotives, can be repainted blue and used as Edward the blue engine. So it could be able to join one of the Tank Engine replicas of Thomas, for a Day Out With Thomas event for the Railway Museum and British Heritage Railways in England.
After all visiting a Day Out With Thomas event at a British Railway Museum, or a British Heritage Railway. Cannot be complete with just Thomas, the event also needs to include some of the other characters, like Edward, Gordon, Henry, James, Percy, Toby and even Duck, Donald and Douglas, Oliver and Emily. That has to be the idea for future Day Out With Thomas events throughout England and perhaps the entire UK.
However they need to find remaining big and little steam locomotives, and turn them into these characters. To be specifically used for a British Day Out With Thomas event, and the steam locomotives need to look exactly like of what the characters are actually based on
Looks just like Edward
This is Edward
Too bad only 1 survives
That looks like Edward this should be Edwards basics
this is like edward
Review the furness railway K2 pls
Not possible, I'm afraid. There's none left
Then use pictures
Like you did in your top 10 video
That's Just Lazy
Why don’t you just review the talyllyn railway
This looks like a Furnace railway K2
Also known as Edward.
Hey that's edward
Edward!
No It Is Not Edward. Edward Is A Furness Railway K2 4-4-0
Edward The Random Engine oh ok
edward...is that you?
wow looks like edward from thomas and friends
*EDWARD!*
no Edward is based on a Sharp-Stewart Larger Seagull K2 Class
this is a T9
KEONETHEBEST 87546 but the t9 looked more accurate
Still Edward Is A Furness Railway K2 4-4-0
Well you cold make Edward this
He looks great
is she more of a passenger engine or goods engine?
Chinedu Eneda 3 "Express" that means she pulls passenger trains which don't stop...
Chinedu Eneda 3 mixed traffic
id say mixed traffic
She's a 3P power class, "P" meaning "Passenger." She was never intended to haul freight
The express could mean freight or passenger so must likely mixed traffic
Is that the real life Edward the blue engene
No
It's looks like Edward from Thomas and friends
APPARENTLY Edward is a Furness Railway K2. but lets be honest, he's a T9 with separated splashers.
NINTENDOSH LEGIT yeah
Edward IS A Furness Railway K2
It looks like edward from thomas and friends
the real edward is actually a furnass k2
And should I say this steam locomotive almost looks like James the red engine
1 word...........................................edward
looks like edwards basis
T9 WAS BASED BY EAGLE
Eagle was based on the ly&r class 28
It looks a lot like Edward
perhaps she is so popular do to having a shape like that of Edward from the RWS
i know, i am just saying it looks like him
Probably because she's an inside cylinder, inside frame 4-4-0 with those large splashers. Apart from that, the T9's have near-direct lineage to the Caledonian Dunalastair's, which are arguably the most elegant 4-4-0's ever to run in Britain. In the case of 120, she's probably popular for the way she looks in general.
It's Edward as black james
Edward IS A FR K2
that engine looks like edward from thomas the tank engine
