Bob is an absolute talent! He’s a natural in explaining complicated things in an interesting and simple way. Just great! Please can we see more of him?
It has always been my thought, that the Talyllyn Railway treats their engines with the utmost respect purely for the fact that they keep them running. One could have been tempted to retire No 1 and 2 to preserve the original parts in the 50s, but it is far more fitting to preserve in them in running condition. These engines were built to be useful and parts would have to be replaced over time on any working railway. I’d much rather have the chance to one day ride behind No 1 and 2 than see them stuffed and mounted in ‘original condition.’
Mine you comments get lost in UA-cam’s algorithm, but I hope the Talyllyn Railway staff know that their efforts to keeps these old engines running are highly appreciated.
When Tallylyn returns it will be like the Railway Series Story Home at Last.
@Joshua W56 I agree with that Joshua.
@@bridazzel7588 In fact, it may also refer to his return in 1958.
Yeah
Maybe in 2023?
@@danielferrovias Who knows?
Awesome I can’t wait to see tally return to service
Yeah I miss Tallylyn I bet Dolgoch would be happy to see him again!
@@bridazzel7588 Dont think she will sadly! She will be due for overhaul or under overhaul when Talyllyn comes back into action
@@TheMidlandTerrier I guess Dolgoch will be taking Tallylyn place in the workshop by the time the old lady's boiler ticket ends
Dolgoch will be under overhaul when Talyllyn is still
Talyllin comes back in 2022 which is next year
The moment we’ve been waiting for...
Yeah seeing Tallylyn again,
What a brilliant video!
That was well pitched, a good balance of being informative and educational without being too technical. Very accessible with a good sprinkling of humour, please continue to produce more material in a similar vein.
Absolutely brilliant explanation. More Bob please!
that looks so cool
When Talyllyn Returns, I hope she will be painted in Red like she was before this overhaul began. But she could be in either Indian Red or Talyllyn green.
Excellent video, very informative and interesting, thank you.
Absolutely amazing - I learned a lot!
That explanation was awesome. Thanks alot for that!!
Again, quite interesting !
Thank you for your efforts concerning the metric dimensions.
Most appreciated !
Original parts of the loco have been mentioned.
Which parts of that loco date back from 1865, please ?
Cheers
Dirk
Bob is a superb teacher/communicator/presenter. How about a short series on the telly about this sort of work and how it impacts on the railway/staff/volunteers/community....?
that was absolutely mesmerizing
Bob is a total natural in front of the Camera. More please.
so Talyllyn is going to be fitted with new cylinders during this overhaul or are they going be fitting new cylinder linings? its great that they are going to make Talyllyn a better runner for the footplate crews
I hope Talyllyn will be done before August 14th
Unfortunately not - planned to be back sometime in 2022
@@TalyllynRailway1865 yikes
@@TalyllynRailway1865 Huh I thought a 10-year overhaul takes 10 years.
@@jamessmithandgarrettsmith3623 10-year overhauls are named that because they need to happen every 10 years, not that they take 10 years to complete
woooo
Edward Thomas:”when will Daddy puff be becoming home ?” SirHadyn:” Daddy puff what do you mean?” Edward Thomas:” You know we have a Grandpuff right? So what about Daddy puff?!? What about Uncle puff for Dolgoch?” Dolgoch :”Hmmm I wonder what the viewers would think about that?”
So the rods on either side are 90 degrees out of phase.
I thought that you'd want them to be 180 degrees out of phase due to the sinusoidal power curve from the pistons, in order for the average power to be constant.
Or is there something I'm not seeing?
(Probably that if I'm completely honest)
That would perhaps be the case if each cylinder were single-acting, i.e. only delivering one power impulse per cylinder per axle revolution. Most steam locos (including this one) are double acting, with power being applied alternately to both front and back sides of the piston, giving two impulses per cylinder per revolution. These impulses are by nature 180 degrees out of phase, and with two such cylinders we end up with four power impulses per revolution- hence the 90 degree phase shift.
is the picture at the top at 11:16 a picture of talyllyn or another Fletcher Jennings loco?
Its Talyllyn in her original 0 4 0 state from what I can make out
@@nweston99 its not tallyllyn apparently its called Plymouth but same class of tallylln
@@fx6r I tried looking it up all I got was an 0-4-0 diesel not a 0-4-0 counterpart.
Plymouth was a locally built engine but the line had received Fletcher Jennings locos prior so can be considered an 'inspired' A Class.
I say, the Talyllyn railway should extend more upward into the mountains, the more scenic views, the more people will come, and the more people will come, you need another engine and a few more coaches. Maybe you can build your own locomotive or maybe borrow the Blue Prints for another locomotive and than build that locomotive for your railway. The higher up into the mountains, the more opportunity’s to bring in more tourists and also on the way up to the mountains, someone will be speaking on a microphone and talk about the history of the Talyllyn railway and also talk about the history of the locomotive’s working on the Talyllyn.
If I may inquire, at 11:16 an engine appears in a photo, a brown photo, I've known for quite a while it used to work in Neath, an area I myself live in, do you have any other info on the Locomotive, I am fascinated about engines that worked within my area.
@@yeo5811 Sadly its not, the engine is called 'Plymouth'
