A company in the UK is experimenting on converting a diesel locomotive into a steam locomotive that runs off of hydrogen fuel cells for the firebox. The burning of hydrogen creates water that would be moved to the boiler to be turned into steam. Isn’t that cool?! Why not have one of the Sodor engines undergo a conversion to use hydrogen fuel cells? And Toyota is experimenting with an internal combustion engine that runs off of ammonia.
This was great, stellar work! You know that whole project 2035 that grounds the series in reality, you could have the railway invest in alternative coal for the climate. Also, the way the engines could step down but not out is to pull a less demanding express. For example when Gordon covered a rail tour to Carlisle, Topham can expand the portfolio by running steam to Carlisle so other engines can run through to Edinburgh and/or Glasgow as well as a revamp of the Sudrian to Euston and Plymouth.
About the climate mentioning steam is arguably more environmentally friendly than diesels but the main problem is that most burn coal to function and they cost more to look after.
At the current point in time in Fan of Hiro's series, the _original_ Peppercorn A1s that Tornado was meant to revive didn't even exist yet. The most recent engine arrival video as of this comment was set in 1934, Tornado wasn't even steamed up for the first time until 2008. And the first Peppercorn A1s were built in 1948. So the answer is "we don't know because Fan of Hiro hasn't gotten there yet".
@@VestedUTuber Ah, ok. I was just wondering because it would have made sense to see Tornado appear in the video if he did visit, especially since they’re both A1s.
@@JimmyProductions Only thing to note is that Tornado is a _Peppercorn_ A1, not a _Gresley_ A1. Arthur Peppercorn was an understudy of Sir Nigel Gresley, and the Peppercorn A1 was an, at the time, modernization of Gresley's original design. Additionally, Tornado was built in Darlington, not Doncaster. In essence, that makes Tornado Gordon and Scott's nephew, not their brother. The reason why the A1 trust built a Peppercorn A1 is because, unlike the Gresley A1/A3s, none of the Peppercorn A1s were preserved.
@@VestedUTuber Ah, my bad. However, still, I thought something like that would be mentioned during this since it goes to the modern day. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see for later in the series.
Gordon's story reminds me of that of Manasseh. He was a cavalier and mean-spirited king of either Judah or Samaria according to the Old Testament who offed his kids, sacrificing them to the demon Molech. Nonetheless, he repented of his crime later and probably has made heaven.
Hey FOH, would you be able to add faces to a few models for me? I want to bring some of my OCs to life, and your tutorial didn’t really help me. If you can help me, please list somewhere I can contact you further.
Hey. Quick question for Fan of Hiro: After the more expensive Sodor Profiles for Henry and Gordon, will your be remaking the episodes of Sodor Profile for Thomas and Edward? I don't expect an answer, but I love this channel anyway with the storytelling. I hope everyone has an awesome day/night wherever you are in the world. You deserve it.
Gordon has had the best development of the engines in the series so far
This is why Gordon is one of my top 3 locomotives his character development in this and RWS is so extraordinarily good

Yes they are
And be being from the uk and still live here .. apparently it’s going alright so far
I would pay money to see it
me too
Kinda Reminds me of Steam-Diesel Conversion in the stories of sodor.
@@billygames9161 yeah me too
Ngl Gordon with Smoke Deflectors actually slaps
This was great, stellar work!

i think there are new branches that are big enough and they let the main line engines work on those
Fantastic job on this Sodor Profile. It was interesting to see how Gordon evolved in your universe
This is my favorite NWR Profile on a character.
Fantastic work, it's great to see another one of these videos; keep up the excellent work.
I loved this so much! Definitely the best Sodor Profile episode this far.
That was fantastic dude. I hope you will post the video of Gordon's rebuild soon.
About the climate mentioning steam is arguably more environmentally friendly than diesels but the main problem is that most burn coal to function and they cost more to look after.
I really hope there will be another episode with Flying Scotsman soon. I just love him as a character.
Where would we be without you, Gordon old bean?
I always wonder since Edward was an express engine at one point i womdered if he can be able to travel to London with his modifications?
today is my birthday, seeing your video is a perfect gift
I’m glad you’re still making these :)
I am glad you got my request about Gordon
For Gordon's 100 mph (160 km/h) run, the "works unit coach" was probably a dynamometer car, which was used to measure his speed.
Next Video: Sodor Profile - NWR Locomotives: No. 5 'James'
Just thinking, does Tornado ever come to visit the NWR?

I agree with you

Express coming through!!
There were steam engines that had their boilers heated from electricity directly, meaning if he wanted to then you could look into that?
Very interesting I will have to see myself
I appreciate you using duchess. Nice video as well btw
Great work Adam
I honestly don’t like that steam is being phased out on sodor in your universe. (f word) those parties!
Will we see Gordan with an LNER tender?
2:27 ive had that headcanon before wtf
What are those white lines on the land and in the water?
Can Gordon have two tenders with the smoke detectors to pull the express

how are you using wnw's trs19 models?
YESSSS
Sure has been a while since you last uploaded a video

You know, I’ve been considering it. Since there’s a lot more to those two than I originally put in the video. I might end up doing it, we’ll see
@ Ok! I wasn’t expecting a response, but thanks! I’d expect those two videos will be excellent judging by your Sodor Arrival Series.
No mention of Pip & Emma as part of the modernisation?
We'll now see who else pulls the Wild NorWester on Sodor.
It's pip & Emma than pip and Emma will be retired for class 800s 801s or 802s
Okay Gordon can go 100 mph but can Edward go 100 mph
(Plz answer this I need too know)
what steam diesel conversion of sorts?
Hey pogmas is a good idea you makin a Atlantic henry? Its cuz well... You know you could make the Good Ending of I Wanted an atlantic!
Yo today, let’s go!
Gordon the lner true hero
Can you do video of Profile james the red engine please
Can you do a sodor profile for James the red engine
What’s Gordon’s rebuild like? An A3 or Gresley stanier hybrid?
It's the Gresley/Stanier Hybrid, but between some of us, I prefer the A3 rebuild.
Ngl Gordon pulling only 2 coaches for a “record run” is kinda dumb
Que bonita canciocita de Thomas y sus amigos 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Who is the next engine arrived
We'll have to wait until Fan Of Hiro has finished his big project first.
I’m gonna assume next up on this series is gonna be James
Main likely James, since the Series started with Thomas who is #1, so by Number Order
It's James.
As well even if sodor is electrified the Cumbrian cost line is not electrified
Can you please make the next one Toby
NWR 2035 good plan
Finally
Why don't you give gordon a corridor tender and water tender
Gordon
1966 is was boris rebuild into killdane experiment
Ceefax.
Sorry but where is the Derailed engine from, which site I mean?
It’s private
What are the LNER rules?
Kill Ramsy 4 Macus
