My bet was on Big Boy, not just because it’s the Strongest but it’s 1 of my all time favorite trains, but the 844 is awesome too when it has never ever been retired and also the PRR S1 is very Good-looking and I quite like the Challenger too, But Big Boy is the Best out of all 4 of them🚂🇺🇸
The reason why the PRR S1 and the UP 844 have a higher top speed is because they are on a rigid frame compared to the articulated, detached frames of the UP Big Boy and Challenger. Big Boy and Challenger can handle curves better due to their detached boilers from the front trunks, but their top speed is significantly nerfed in the process
Our freight trains are extremely important but people don’t care about them. Most people wouldn’t be alive right now if it wasn’t for the railroads. Great video as well!
I call world strength championships!!! Steam vs diesel vs electric; USA vs UK vs Germany vs Japan!!! Well done Mr. Oliver!!! Side challenge: is an E2 tank engine stronger than a Pacific A4 as from the movie “Hero of the Rails”?
The Union Pacific Big Boy was actually meant to haul VERY long trains up steep grades. And when I say that I mean it could go up a 2% grade with a 5 mile long train and still pull it.
You should try the same with the winner here, an then the one with English ones then. You should have the 2-10-10-2 , which is bigger than these are by far.
Hey Oliver just wanted to say the UP 884 is an FEF3 class 4-8-4 class northeren(thats what we call them in america) just so u know mate i love the vids
Should have chosen a PRR Q2 if you wanted strength. While the S1 is fast, its not technically a strong train. Passenger trains are fast yes, but if you want raw power should've chosen the PRR Q2. Also the Virginian 2-10-10-2 would give big boy a run for its money.
A Norfolk and Western Y6b would eat all of them on startup, but the ut'd alwo be the slowest loco in that race. I don't think any real life Y6b passed 55 mph.
I won’t lie, I am and am not surprised with how close the S1 got to Big Boy near the end. The giant 6-4-4-6 was always going to be slow to start, with unbalanced weight and giant wheels. But it’s maximum power output is at high speed, and even at medium speeds it’s higher that the Challenger or the 4-8-4
But In real life the s1 would be kind of under powerd because it would have problems with wheel slipe because the trailing trucks and leading truck would take all of the weight and all the driving wheels would slip because there would not be a lot of weight on them which makes them kind of under powerd
The top speed of the UP big boy Is 80 but it’s recommended to only go 60 and the Challenger Top Speed 70 recommended 50 and for the S 1 100 to 140 and for 844 100 to 120 Top speed
Freight engines vs passenger engines. The PRR S1 with its 4 driving axles stands no chance against Big Boy and Challenger with heavy freight trains. Also, i think the trains used in this race are short for what a muscle engine is built for imo
The reason the s1 and the up 844 caught up is because they are passenger engines/ mixed traffic engines
A BIG mixed traffic engine
The s1 was not built for strength im surprised the 844 is losing to the s1 😮
I agree, 844 and 4014 usually lead trains together and both work well as one
@@stellambetu5139 it's because it has marginally better tractive effort and a fuckton more speed
And from what I know, pass. steam locos are build for a little bit of strength and a LOT for speed. And once they build up that speed, they keep it.
The Big Boy is articulated, so it did not come close to derailing. The front curves without the rest of it.

7:45 yep that is basically what you'll see in America if you come here Oliver
Also can the strength challenge be done uphill? Now that’s a real challenge.
I think these four engines should do a speed challenge
I’m curious if the 844 would/can beat the PRRS1 at 200%
I know what you mean but it is unfair because the 844 has more power
Can already tell this is ganna be a damned good race!! Also keep up the goodwork!
This was quite enjyoable to watch. You should do this with some American diesels next, maybe the ES44AC, SD70ACe, DD40AX, and AC6000CW.
Do you mean DDA40X
And the SD40-2
@@mulletmayhem3812The SD40-2 is smaller than all the Engines listed on the comment, so the it doesn’t count
I call world strength championships!!! Steam vs diesel vs electric; USA vs UK vs Germany vs Japan!!! Well done Mr. Oliver!!!

one of your best vids (my opinion) please do more strength chellenges
i would have liked to have seen an alleghany in the lineup but this is Cool!
Fun fact about the big boy, on flat ground he can pull the equivalent of 16 statues of liberty at once and get some speed to
Big boy was supposed to be the strongest cause in real life. He pushed an entire freight train
Let’s be honest America does like to be a show off with it’s locomotives Rockets, and such
Moral to this race:
Sometimes sucess is not needed to surpass but determination leads to sucess

i love your channel!!!
Hey mr Oliver did you plan to do this video Just because i told you do it or it is that you like the idea yes or no?😅 i Just want to know:D
You should try the same with the winner here, an then the one with English ones then. You should have the 2-10-10-2 , which is bigger than these are by far.
Not even the S1 with its power and speed could beat the Big Boy's incredible strength
the S1 did pull freight near the end of its life
Hey Oliver just wanted to say the UP 884 is an FEF3 class 4-8-4 class northeren(thats what we call them in america) just so u know mate i love the vids
YES AND THE BIOG BOY WAS BUILT FOR LARG CARGO RUNS FOR ALOT EVEN TANK TRAINS SO IT WAS BUILT FOR THIS
Can you have a Grate 9f race?
That tight curve part looks like the horseshoe curve
Should have chosen a PRR Q2 if you wanted strength. While the S1 is fast, its not technically a strong train. Passenger trains are fast yes, but if you want raw power should've chosen the PRR Q2. Also the Virginian 2-10-10-2 would give big boy a run for its money.
GOO BIG BOYY
The big boy has got scraped
I want to see it again, but with British Steam locomotives
They are all beautiful locomotives but Big Boy will always have my heart
Are you going to be reviewing that Eurostar in the background?
Big boys very strong but I think that if race track was longer prrs one would surely win my favourite engine is the big boy and prrs one
and also the up844 also did passenger services
You should try tug of war but if it don't work maybe try tow with your irl model trains
Many don't know this fact: Big boy's full speed is of 90 mph/160 kph if it's pulling passenger cars
Whooo PRR!
Big boy still won
keep it up my g
The prrs1 looks like a streamline locomotive
Fun fact about the up 844 my grandpa was the fireman
The contest of strength
if the track was longer the PRR S1would have beaten the UP Big Boy
Bro , please Race All world train and Please please please please please Add VANDA BHARAT EXPRESS Train from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
At least PRR S1 got 2nd.
I drink coke but not that much, my guy, are you ok?
Please include Indian train ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like the S1 but still I like big great working engines not flunks
from what I know the 844 was an express train
fun fact: american steam trains are so damn reliable because the boilers are almost 10 inches thick on the walls.
At the end, The PRRS1 is faster than Big as a boy
Did you know tha I LOVE UNION PACIFIC TRAIN
Laser jet I am a fan
My favourite engine is PR S1
I like union Videos 44Videos
yeah the S1 is a passenger engine
If you are adding the prr s1 add the t1
Oof! I wish I has coke😂

4014 Big boy rocks
Put it up against the mallard I want to see if they destroy it or if it destroys them
Do you know what causes them to be so powerful....TORQUE MF torque is the main ingredient, and the big boy exceeds in that. By a lot.
ALSO DONT CRITISIZE OWER TRAINS NOW WE HAVE HORS POWER
What about a 1400x vs a 5700 Pannier
Lazer lisin to roll on big boy song
s1 and big boy are the best
Long live the Big Boy
what about Allegheny
Hey Oliver gargle salt water it works every time
The s1 is a passenger train
Is there any difference between big boy and challenger? They both look the same, why the names are the only difference?
The bigboy is stronger and the challanger is a bit faster but weaker its like a older brother stuff
Is that the big boy
Big boy should win
You never know, 844 won a race against big boy with 100 freight cars.
This one's under the Pennsylvania railroad
If you had made the race track 5 miles longer….
I knew the big boy is best
Bg boy
I think the Challenger will win
Ps1 and 844
Has anyone ever seen big boy? I have
Hi
Big boy❤😂😂😂
The PRR S1 is 13 percent more powerful than the big boy
Is their any fast engines then prrs one
The number is 4000 is the first big boy
X40000 unipacipick big boy won❤
Blyt am the like 12th person
*TREN*
844
The average train in the US is 2 miles long

Hey the game is in phone 😂
It’s a she not a he okay
Shows TSC is not a realistic sim. The S1 should've won. It had 7200 horsepower
Fun Fact: It's speculated the PRR S1, the real life one, broke Mallard's record
Seriously 😳 that's soo cool
@@bluecomet1982 Did you miss where I said speculated?
Yeah there have been claims that the S1 touched 140 mph, but they have never been confirmed
@@wolfzillaproductions4563The fastest it was ever rumored to go was 156MPH.
@@wolfzillaproductions4563 same with the T1

Not trying to be annoying, but the challengers regularly operated at 70 mph on passenger trains
@@crocowithaglocko5876hes talking aboute the freight operation
Freight engines vs passenger engines. The PRR S1 with its 4 driving axles stands no chance against Big Boy and Challenger with heavy freight trains.
Also, i think the trains used in this race are short for what a muscle engine is built for imo
The Union Pacific big boy would easily be able to pull 100-200+ pieces of rolling stock with EASE.
No up to 1,000
It's my favorite train in the world
