    That's very nostalgic! My dad used to build trains just like those, he died when I was young but I remember him driving me on one at the local park he and his friends had set up. They weren't kits! His trains were made from raw sheet metal with brass and copper pieces he would melt and cast into the various parts he needed, the plans he used were from full sized steam trains, he just scaled them down. It's nice to see that hobby is still going strong.

    I love the switching setup. That's absolutely brilliant! I love the entire thing as a whole. Great job all.

    Wow, you really have to have faith in that track work! If that train derailed, you could really take a bad tumble going that fast! Great video!

      that track work looks better than most of the goods track on american railways to be honest!

    Lovely loco, one of my favourite types. Just running in so going at nowhere near full power. Great piece of workmanship and when she is properly run in she will really go I am sure.

    We all would love to be in the position of having the time and money and most important to have the skill to put it together. I personally do not have those but I am fortunate enough to live near a preserved railway where I go and help all I can. This gets me footplate rides and that is something else.

    My daughter 5 3/4 likes the Duchess the best and that comes from living in a mostly Great Western household which is 3 1/2 miles from the Reading track by road.
    A completed Gemma sits in our living room with several dolls who are trying to drive her.
    Lovely locomotives.

    PS. several others under construction of course.

    Depends on the quality of the coal, and how the fire has been bedded. Sometimes, loco crews will pile a heap of coal on to make a big, smoky fire just for a photo op. For a miniature loco like this, the driver doesn't want a huge cloud of smoke, cinders and sparks blowing back in his face.

  • @jonnyzz139
    @jonnyzz139 Před 11 lety

    I thought the same thing at first but the way the human carrying carriage hangs down either side of the track should make it nicely stable and I bet the locos are heavy as hell.

  • @Subparanon
    @Subparanon Před 11 lety

    I take it they are elevated to keep the center of gravity lower than the rails? Like if you ran this flat on the ground I would imagine the center would be too high and it'd derail and fall over quite easily.

  • @JBofBrisbane
    @JBofBrisbane Před 12 lety

    THIS IS NOT SPAM - You need to research the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch railway - it's a working narrow gauge line that uses beautifully scaled-down replicas of mainline express steam locos.

  • @0903Thomas
    @0903Thomas Před 12 lety

    Gordon and James are some of the mainline/standard gauge engines. I was referring to Mike, Bert and Rex. They were the three original Small Railway Engines that were only ever in The Railway Series by the Rev. W. Awdry and they never appeared on TV. I'm guessing you know who he was, but I'm also guessing that you didn't know who the Small Railway Engines were.

  • @aaronzack14
    @aaronzack14 Před 12 lety

    i think i already know the answer to this question but, what were these used for other than scale recreation? or is this pretty much it? because it seem the larger locomotives, like this or bigger, can pull or push some weight.

  • @fodenscania2

    haha true but its that, that the train is heavy as hell and then kind of tight turns (not tight probably only looks tight going fast) i have a h0 scale modeltrain also heavy as hell, if o go too fast round a corner it will roll over, only why i got the thoughts here too
