Yes I agree. I love the GWR and everything about them. The locomotives, (in real life and the model form), in the authentic GW livery with the golden dome and copper top chimney are brilliant
This is my favourite running session video of all. Your Manor engine Broome Manor stands out from the GWR crowd for me, more than any other model GWR engine you've shown in other videos so far. With the exception of Duck and Oliver from Thomas and Friends, that is. Broome Manor, please run more often on Sam's layout; you are a credit to God's Wonderful Railway (nickname of Great Western Railway). Pretty please Sam, let me see more of Broome Manor on your layout. She's a wonderful example of the 78xx Class, and she's won my heart a thousand times over. I'd be very grateful. Thankyou so much.
Lovely running session mate it does so happen that my great grandad was once a driver of the City of Turo at one time I was suprised to discover, explains my dad side of train loving i guess lol Keep it up all best Dave
Sorry for the late comment but i was in London for a day. This video about the GWR running is great! Yes i have also buying new things for my layout. A Castle class in a trainpack and a rebuilt patriot class.
Hi Sam. Just a line to enforce the fact that I thoroughly enjoy your videos, especially the GWR running sessions. I was lucky enough to pick up the full Lord of the Isles set, complete with the clerestory coaches. If you think the loco is beautiful, you should see it pulling a rake of clerestory coaches behind it. It is awesome. I also picked up another single wheeler, Duke of Edinburgh I think along with a different set of clerestory coaches. They are indeed beautiful locos but I think the coaches really enhance their looks greatly.
I always think of the Deans Goods as the old man from the war. The big strong youngster back in the day but now a small old man who goes at its own pace. And 3 coaches aren't a difficulty for the single in real life, Sterling Singles pulled express trains from London to Edinburgh.
haha absolutely - that's a really good way to think of them, I agree! I know - I've seen some photos of them, I'm amazed by how much they could manage with just the one set of driven wheels! Cheers, Sam :)
The coaches Lord of the Isles was pulling were Lima coaches - continental European Pullman style ones painted in GW colours. But they look just fine behind the single wheeler, almost right for the era!
Hi Sam , thanks for the mention re - my County Class loco and it is still one of my favourites on the layout . Yours with the TTS does sound good , for the price I think they are great value . I have heard about issues with some controllers but since I got the Hornby Elite last year I have had no problems at all with any of my Bachman either . Cheers.......Peter.
Thanks Peter, yeah your County has always stuck in my head - I'm happy with my TTS one, but obviously yours are far superior! Yes I've heard that the Elite is a good controller for compatibility! All the best mate, Sam :)
Wish I'd seen this earlier. Glad I've found it because I love GW engines. I'd love to see your layout and run my own engines on it (though my collection is nothing compared to yours)
That County class made me laugh I was about to ask why it was running so slow I thought it was a funeral train at first but then to my amazement you speeded her up, that made me smile but was not too keen on her whistle . I really enjoyed your Friday super chat and thank you for your nice comments and for taking the time to look at my shelf's on Snupps . Just a little bit of constructive criticism (I know you like a bit of feed back) The 14xx review could of been done on one of your pre recorded episodes we value your live ones and only a couple more to go. only 5 more days until Friday from Michael :)
Thanks so much Michael, haha yes the whistle isn't perfect on that, but I'm quite happy with the sound in general! No problem at all - thank you so much for all your kind support with the superchats, it really really is very generous of you! Yes absolutely - I know that reviews are better suited to being pre-recorded, but I wanted to give it a try live for obvious reasons - it also gave me time to delve deep into those various issues too! 99% of my reviews will be pre-recorded though, don't worry - I'll just do minor ones once in a while during the streams! Thanks again mate, Sam :)
I loved seeing that dean single the manor and the county racing around the layout I think I shall have to get them as I am building a Dawlish sea wall layout
For my birthday, I got some stuff done early, so I looked at my first train, the SP Daylight 4449, and I thought "What if she whistles happy birthday to me?" So I created a recording from different videos, and for a part in my birthday video today, she actually whistles happy birthday to me! However, I use captions at some points to let people know what also needs to be said. So for the 4449 part, while she's whistling, captions will explain in her language what is being said!
Great video of Gods Wonderful Railway engines. Incidentally, the Achilles Class Lord Of The Isles was first made by Triang and later introduced by Hornby in 2000 with a redesigned chassis and metal wheeled front bogie. Several other locos of the class were also produced as limited editions of 2000 each. Some of these were produced in sets with clerestory coaches as well, named Great Western, Royal Sovereign and Lord Of The Isles. Single limited edition locos were Duke of Edinburgh and Lorna Doone, Although none of this class survived, a non working replica of Royal Sovereign, renamed The Queen for Victoria's Golden Jubilee, can be seen today at Windsor Railway Station. The original Royal Sovereign was used to pull the Royal Train, which is at the NRM.
Thanks a lot mate, yes I'm familiar with the redesigned chassis version - it's not perfect, but it's a definite improvement! Didn't know there were that many though - thanks for that! Cheers, Sam :)
HI Josh - really glad you liked it mate! Hope you had fun at Warley - and 300 quid on engines is a good way to be poorer in my book ;D Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Thank you! I was really happy with it too - I don't think the whistles are quite right, but other than that I'm pleased!! :D Thanks for watching, Sam :)
That’s some lovely GWR locomotives, guess l’ve got to be a little biased towards them as many were built in my home town. Nice to see some of my wagons running behind the Ocean ones 😉.
Sam's Trains My number 1 favorite 4-4-0 (American) steam locomotive engine train with tender full of coal and water that's preserved at the National Railway Museum (1975-) in York, England is the GWR 3700 Class 3440 City of Truro (1903).
Hey Sam, just found out that 7802 Bradley Manor and 7819 Hinton Manor are also preserved at SVR. That means 3/9 of the preserved Manor classes are at SVR which runs between Bridgnorth and Kidderminster.
Nice running session! Just ordered a model of the GWR 43xx #5322 today too so I'll have a GWR locomotive on my roster (although I've only been getting american locomotives so far). It'd actually be pretty nice to see a review on the 43xx too. They are some pretty nice looking engines. Also, I have to do this. XD "There are only two ways of doing things. The Great Western Way or the wrong way."
Thanks Andrew - I've always loved that about them too - they all look related! Okay that'd be a good idea - although I'd have to do some research on that myself too! Cheers, Sam :)
All right. For those who doubt new York central 999 100mph claim, to be fair, he was made to pull the empire state express. And people were saying it preformed with great speed!
Sam I think I'm starting to share your love of 4-4-0s. the D16, the K2, the county class, Jupiter... the list goes on. Edit: almost forgot the city class!
If u can synchronize the chafing with the wheel turn, and it should be fine. I do hope once u do the Earl-City classes double-heading. I wonder if locos like the 43XX that has small outer cylinders are Compound locos, or the valve gear just hidden between them (for the twin build).
And our weirdest loco from the 1800's is has to be the 222 class witch is a tandem-compound express loco: www.kosanyo.hu/picture/mozdony/g222e.jpg (look the cylinders) but the 250 class is weirdo too: www.kosanyo.hu/picture/mozdony/g250.jpg
Hi Tom, unfortunately the synchronisation is completely automatic, so there's nothing much you can do about it really! Ooh yeah that would be a nice thing to do - very good idea mate! :D Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Well how about that? I just had my 'Lord of the Isles' out for a run today. Surprisingly she was going very well, but they all seem to make that distinctive noise. Three coaches is about all it can take. 'Little Giant' can take four coaches easily and 5 with a bit of wheel spin.
Lovely sesh. I'm not a GWR fan, by any stretch of the imagination, so the highlight for me was at 23:24 - thinking "He's not gonna sell much ice cream going at that speed." Hahaha 😉
Love the Dean Goods and Single. And the Dukedog is my favorite! Would you considder getting any crews for your engines? Open cabs like that look eerily empty without a driver and fireman in them. I try to fit crews to all my engines where I can, brings so much more life to them.
Thanks Jonatan, glad you liked those! I think I'd go broke if I had to buy crews for all my engines - but I think it would be fun to fit them into the open cabbed ones as you say! All the best mate, Sam :)
haha - Evan's got a point! I think Barrie Davis's video is still there - so check it out on his channel! I also offer a basic explanation on how to do it on my turntable video! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Hi mate - I can't make any guarantees about making that running session - although it's a fantastic idea! I did show your requests during Friday's stream though! :D Cheers, Sam :)
Hey Sam! I have a old tender driven castle (DCC fitted no socket) and the A1 (DCC sound) I showed you is jamming the wheels and gear. How much would it cost to fix them please. Thanks, Callum
Hi Callum, could you possibly send me a photo of the damage? Generally I won't be able to offer repairs on damage as extensive as that, but I can confirm that having seen a photo! All the best, Sam :)
That's an awesome idea! I'm not taking more requests right now, but I'll be opening them up again in the next series of live streams!! Happy New Year - Sam :)
great western ahh the best out of them all ;) but I do love the lms livery haha, I do love me a small little steam loco when I see one, they all ways look amazing with there1/2 coaches when they get the chance :) I think maybe you should get some oxford wagons they really are worth the price ;) I think this is the longest video you have made in a while, superb :)
Does anyone know how I can get hold of a Dean Goods locomotive safety valve cover as I am missing mine? The scale is OO. The model is quite old (50 yrs?). Great video by the way!
That'll probably be the Airfix/Mainline type one then - Ebay is your best bet - try to pick one up for spares, and salvage the parts you need! Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Love the GW in general but the county class with sound was amazing! Another great vid really enjoyed it.
Thanks very much mate - really glad you enjoyed that one! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
No better way then the great western way!
haha absolutely - glad you like them mate! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
that is from thomas and friends
ba dum tss
Yes I agree. I love the GWR and everything about them. The locomotives, (in real life and the model form), in the authentic GW livery with the golden dome and copper top chimney are brilliant
Truer words were never spoken
Excellent, i always loved the Great Western
Thanks mate - me too, such lovely engines!
Cheers,
Sam :)
great running session. long time since you have showed so many great western loco. i really like the county class.
Thanks very much! Yeah it's been a while - glad you enjoyed it mate! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
I like the earl Class. I see one at the Bluebell railway
Thanks a lot Will - yeah I love those too - never seen one in real life before though!! :3
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
If you want to see one go to the Bluebell railway
Ah Sam, a busy day at the radio station and I come home to find your holding a GWR fest.
Thank you
Jon
No problem mate - really hope you like it! :D
All the best,
Sam :)
This is my favourite running session video of all. Your Manor engine Broome Manor stands out from the GWR crowd for me, more than any other model GWR engine you've shown in other videos so far. With the exception of Duck and Oliver from Thomas and Friends, that is. Broome Manor, please run more often on Sam's layout; you are a credit to God's Wonderful Railway (nickname of Great Western Railway). Pretty please Sam, let me see more of Broome Manor on your layout. She's a wonderful example of the 78xx Class, and she's won my heart a thousand times over. I'd be very grateful. Thankyou so much.
Hey Kelly, I'm glad to hear that - and you got your Manor there too! I'll have to get Broome running a bit more often!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Wonderful video. I enjoyed every second if it. Also what beautiful locomotives you got.
Thanks so much mate - I know, some of those GWR engines really were superb!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains how long did it roughly take you to build your railway?
And again very beautiful steam locos. Fantastic.
Thanks a lot Norbert, you're very kind,
Cheers,
Sam :)
Lovely running session mate it does so happen that my great grandad was once a driver of the City of Turo at one time I was suprised to discover, explains my dad side of train loving i guess lol
Keep it up all best
Dave
Thanks mate - ooh that's amazing - thanks for sharing! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
I've been waiting a long time for more GWR locos!
That's good to hear James - sorry for the wait!
All the best,
Sam :)
Great job Sam I love all your videos and love to watch them
Silver
Thanks very much mate - that's very kind of you to say! :D
Cheers,

gwr locomotives are one of my favourites
That's good to hear Chad - they are really elegant! :D
Cheers,

Sorry for the late comment but i was in London for a day. This video about the GWR running is great! Yes i have also buying new things for my layout. A Castle class in a trainpack and a rebuilt patriot class.
marco honders cool:)
Thanks Marco, no problem mate - ooh sounds great, sounds fantastic!! :D

you have teach me about a lot of engines thank you
That's lovely to hear - glad you learned something mate! :D

Thanks for watching - Sam :)
great thanks for this and have a nice day!
No problem mate - you have a great day too!
Cheers,

I love Great Western Railway
Me too! They really had some very attractive engines :3
Cheers,

Thanks Nick, yes that's right - I know they're not perfect, but they were the closest I had for her!
Thanks a lot for watching,
Sam :)
Very great running session Sam! doing things the Great Western way!
Thanks Ted - absolutely, there's no other way ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Bullmen just had to be part of the running session these are an awsome selection of GWR locomotives!!!!
haha yeah he did - he just can't resist can he?? ;D

Hi Sam really enjoy seeing some GWR locos, and I've just got back from Warley and came out another 300 quid poorer) All the Best Josh
HI Josh - really glad you liked it mate! Hope you had fun at Warley - and 300 quid on engines is a good way to be poorer in my book ;D
Thanks for watching,

i love great western engines !!
Me too! They're such nice looking engines aren't they?? :3
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
the rev. w awdry was a huge great western fan, he had a big model of the city of truro in his study
Ooh wow - I never knew about his city of Truro model!! D:
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Great video! The 43xx is a good looking loco.
Thanks mate - glad you liked that one, that's one of my favourites :3
Cheers,
Sam :)
Very enjoyable Sam. There's something about that GWR green that makes them special. No favourite today. David.
Thanks so much David - I agree, GWR green will always be a favourite for me too!
Cheers,
Sam :)
The County Class sounds great with that decoder!
Thank you! I was really happy with it too - I don't think the whistles are quite right, but other than that I'm pleased!! :D
Thanks for watching,

This running session is All ship shape in Swindon fashion!
Jolly good show Sam!
TWA ;)
haha thanks a lot mate - much appreciated!
Cheers,

That’s some lovely GWR locomotives, guess l’ve got to be a little biased towards them as many were built in my home town. Nice to see some of my wagons running behind the Ocean ones 😉.
haha absolutely Rob - nothing wrong with loving GWR engines in my opinion! ;D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
25 wagons amazing
I know - I was really impressed by that too! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Some very butiful locos. Great vid sam
Thanks Cooper - really glad you liked seeing them!
All the best,

Sam's Trains My number 1 favorite 4-4-0 (American) steam locomotive engine train with tender full of coal and water that's preserved at the National Railway Museum (1975-) in York, England is the GWR 3700 Class 3440 City of Truro (1903).
Ahh great choice Mark - I love that one too! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Erlestoke manor no. 7812 is one of the 9 preserved and is at the Severn Valley Railway and is in BR Green
I think SVR is mainly GWR and BR but they also do other liveries
Ahh very cool - thanks a lot for the info on that!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hey Sam, just found out that 7802 Bradley Manor and 7819 Hinton Manor are also preserved at SVR. That means 3/9 of the preserved Manor classes are at SVR which runs between Bridgnorth and Kidderminster.
Can't decide they're all very nice
haha that's okay mate - thanks a lot for watching!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Nice running session! Just ordered a model of the GWR 43xx #5322 today too so I'll have a GWR locomotive on my roster (although I've only been getting american locomotives so far). It'd actually be pretty nice to see a review on the 43xx too. They are some pretty nice looking engines.

Thanks a lot Benny, that sounds great - hope you enjoy the 43xx!
And thanks for the famous quote ;D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
I love GWR locos the best and I love the video!
Thank you so much - glad you had fun mate! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hi Sam just saying l love the Berkshire engine so can you do a double header with daylight and the birkshire
Thank you!! That would be fun to do actually - might give that a go some time! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
They were nice locos that they built especially their 4-6-0s
I might get a dean goods because I like the look of them
Thanks a lot David! Ooh I can recommend that - they really are fab! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
LB&SCR FTW! Awesome video!
haha absolutely, lol!
Glad you enjoyed it,
Sam :)
Love GWR and the "family appearance" of their locos. Perhaps yo can do a video pointing out the spotting feature of each different class?
Thanks Andrew - I've always loved that about them too - they all look related! Okay that'd be a good idea - although I'd have to do some research on that myself too!
Cheers,
Sam :)
A double headed drag-freight, real heavy big muscle railroading 🚂 🚂 ✅
haha that'd be awesome! :D
All right. For those who doubt new York central 999 100mph claim, to be fair, he was made to pull the empire state express. And people were saying it preformed with great speed!
haha - I'd still want some actual proof ;)
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Sam's trains I am using GWR locomotives and rolling stock for a layout I am building. It is set during the summer of 1940 and has a Spitfire
That's awesome James - hope it all goes well for you!! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Sam I think I'm starting to share your love of 4-4-0s. the D16, the K2, the county class, Jupiter... the list goes on.
Edit: almost forgot the city class!
Absolutely - I just love 4-4-0s, and I always have done really! :D
Thanks for the comment,

Hello Sam I think I heard fire engine sirens outside your house.I just love fire engines and locomotives!😁
haha you might have done, haha! ;D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Great video I do live some gwr locos and I've settled on the 2P and the j94 for £100
Thanks A - ooh that sounds like a good bargain - well done mate! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Well how about that? I just had my 'Lord of the Isles' out for a run today. Surprisingly she was going very well, but they all seem to make that distinctive noise. Three coaches is about all it can take. 'Little Giant' can take four coaches easily and 5 with a bit of wheel spin.
Blimey, that's a bit spooky Ian! Glad to hear she ran well for you - and yes I know what you mean about the noise!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
I love your vids can you do a race of Thomas and freinds vs there real selves that would be awsome
Thanks Lorri - yes I'll probably do that at some point - lots of people have asked for it :3
Cheers,
Sam :)
great video some lovely locos in there
Thanks very much mate - they were some of my favourites :3
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
thats fine mate
Lovely sesh. I'm not a GWR fan, by any stretch of the imagination, so the highlight for me was at 23:24 - thinking "He's not gonna sell much ice cream going at that speed." Hahaha 😉
haha thanks a lot Phil - congrats for putting up with the GWR nonsense then, haha ;D
I couldn't resist that!!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
A great GWR session Sam
haha thanks Nigel, really glad you liked it! :3
All the best,

Well yeah, you have hundreds while I have.... five. :P
I have a blue coloured Single too
Fantastic! Those are awesome! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
hay sam how do you link a turntable up to work. me noob and dont know wiring (lol). im thinking of getting one.
haha - Evan's got a point! I think Barrie Davis's video is still there - so check it out on his channel! I also offer a basic explanation on how to do it on my turntable video!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
When is Beeching day expected?
also put your spare steam parts in wagons hauled by any diesel.
Hi mate - I can't make any guarantees about making that running session - although it's a fantastic idea! I did show your requests during Friday's stream though! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hey Sam! I have a old tender driven castle (DCC fitted no socket) and the A1 (DCC sound) I showed you is jamming the wheels and gear. How much would it cost to fix them please. Thanks, Callum
Hi Callum, could you possibly send me a photo of the damage? Generally I won't be able to offer repairs on damage as extensive as that, but I can confirm that having seen a photo!

Really enjoyed this video
Thanks Pedro! :D
Would love to see Adderley Hall and Dean Goods with Pullman coaches
That's an awesome idea! I'm not taking more requests right now, but I'll be opening them up again in the next series of live streams!!
Happy New Year - Sam :)
This is so cool Sams Trains
Thanks Michael - that's really kind of you! :D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
You should add a DCC sound chip into Bullman. ;-)
Dharmesh Prakash yeah
haha! That certainly would be entertaining, lol! ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
You could run Duck and Oliver next time double heading that would be awesome, nice video though mate. I liked the Dean Goods class very nice loco.
That would be awesome!! I'll have to try and get an Oliver! :3
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains look on Tootally Thomas uk or Hattons

That's great to hear! Yeah they did own some gorgeous engines! :D

Sam :)
great western ahh the best out of them all ;) but I do love the lms livery haha, I do love me a small little steam loco when I see one, they all ways look amazing with there1/2 coaches when they get the chance :) I think maybe you should get some oxford wagons they really are worth the price ;) I think this is the longest video you have made in a while, superb :)
haha thanks a lot mate! Yes those Oxford wagons do look fantastic actually - I'll take a look at some!
Glad you liked the longer video anyway,
Sam :)
Did you know that William Stanier used to work for the Great Western?
I didn't know that! I only knew that the Halls and the Black 5 were closely related!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)

hmm was it me or was that 3rd train de-railed? it looked to be hard to tell, mind you a good running sesson,
You may be right - that does happen from time to time - very well spotted though! :D

Thanks for watching,

Does anyone know how I can get hold of a Dean Goods locomotive safety valve cover as I am missing mine? The scale is OO. The model is quite old (50 yrs?). Great video by the way!
That'll probably be the Airfix/Mainline type one then - Ebay is your best bet - try to pick one up for spares, and salvage the parts you need!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
My first loco was a deans
Ooh lovely- beautiful way to start! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Can you review the new hornby railroad county class.
Hi Jacob - I reviewed those counties already - you should be able to find those videos on my channel! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Oh I see the tri-ang locomotive in the middle
Well spotted Lizzie! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
there's 2 ways of doing running sessions
the wrong way or
the great western way
:D
haha!! Well I hope this one wasn't the wrong way then, lol ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains It is not the great western way this is the wrong way because there is no duck.
That reminds me, where is oliver and duck/montague!?
Hey Sam, why haven’t you ran Duck or Oliver or Donald or Douglas during the running session?
I wanted this one to be about real trains! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Nice! My channel is a year old and it’s been a great year 👍🏻
Thank you!! Really glad you had a fun first year - good luck with the next one!! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Next time you should add the castle class please or even better a great western shunting video with duck in the background.
Yeah! The Castle would have been a good one to run too! :3
All the best,
Sam :)
As duck would say "there are two ways of doing things the great western way or the wrong way "and"oh dear" #Thomas and friends

Sam have you done any train pulling some trucks or coaches backwards?
Hi Francis - yeah I've done that in the past - it's not something I do terribly often though!
All the best,
Sam :)
I thought the 43xx looked amazing, surprised you didn’t mention ROD 5322 (Even thought she’s not operational currently)
Thanks very much! I don't think I had the ROD when I made this :(
