LNER is my favourite out of the Big Four XD.
Very good choice - I can see why! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)

Personally my favourite LNER locomotives were the Ivatt Atlantics, I just love the way they look and the 4-4-2 wheel arrangement is just brilliant
I just picked up a Bachmann C1 and it is one of my favorite models to look at. I just keep staring at it all day!
Ahh good choices - I wish I had one of those in LNER too :(
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
They're of GN design. The '251' class arrived in 1902.
I'm a fan of the LNER, especially for their non-conventional designs, like the L1 and the V2. In the novel I'm writing now, my main character is a station mistress of an LNER station in the Yorkshire Dales. I can say that the LNER is my number one choice in grouping engines. And their green livery is pretty nice too !
My favorite LNER locomotives are the P2, the A4 Mallard, the N2, the D16, and the most famous Flying Scotsman! 👍
Wow Sam, what a collection you have there; a true museum in scale, just wow. The LNER certainly had star status locos with such charisma and quintessence class. The intricate livery alone was/is brilliant. One of course stands out for me, being the A4 in blue. Such a delight to look at :)
Thank you so much - they totally did didn't they? Got to love the A4 of course! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
The LNER is my favorite from the Big Four.
The C1 and the A1 are my favorite locomotives.
Ahh I see. Lucky you. To be honest I was kinda expecting that, you didn't get into trains until Tardisrescue comes along. ^^
That's right - before then I enjoyed them, but wouldn't know the classes etc!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Only one V2 is preserved, the famous ‘Green Arrow’ and I saw it at the NRM a few years ago. Beautiful locomotive, and it’s also famous along with Flying Scotsman, Mallard and the K4, ‘The Great Marquess’ and the K1 2005, in the LNER and also is featured in the Christopher Awdry era of the Railway Series called ‘Thomas & The Great Railway Show’ where Thomas visits the National Railway Museum, when it was released in the 90’s I think.
It's a shame how little of these survived....
My favorite classes are the Peppercorn A1s (and A2s to a lesser extent), the P2 (especially those with the bugatti nose and walschearts gear), the V2, 3 and 4, the Thompson B1, the J39/36, the O4 (and the O1 rebuilt versions), the J94 and the N2. The A4 also has to be there for sheer beauty and speed, but I do like the A1s a lot as well.
Since watching the video, my eyes have been opened to the L1 as well. I don't know why but I really like the look of that thing.
Avoid the L1 - they were nicknamed 'cement mixers' due to the fact that they shook themselves apart. Yet more awful Thompson design.
In my opinion Flying Scotsman is the best engine!!!
I honestly never knew just how beautiful English locos were until I started following your channel.. Found myself just staring at a beautiful pic of the Mallard for 10 minutes like a zombie 😂
That's a very impressive collection that you've built up Sam, a very enjoyable session...Bob
What was the first operational steam loco you saw in real life?
That's a good question - It'll have been when I was tiny, far too young to remember probably!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Thanks for another fab video Sam, highly enjoyable👍
Me: *gets excited for Gordon* Sam: “Only one engine per class” Me: 😐
Gordon is an A0 so technically he could have been included
@@christopherlaycock5993 that’s Victor Tangz’s version of it.. Gordon is a heavily rebuilt A1
@@Foxx_modelling In t1e2h3s nwr origins he classed Gordon as a A0 as well
@@Foxx_modelling it's Awdry's idea as far as I'm concerned
Arry yes I think I saw that Gordon was an a0 in the island of Sodor book but I'm not sure though
So much fun to watch verry interesting. Can't wait for the next video.
Great vid Sam! Can't wait for the LMS version of this!😀 Cheers, Luca
Love that D49, a great looker for such an old model. I’ve had mine for about 25 years and it’s still a reliable runner. Given there’s a preserved member of the class (a rarity for LNER locos), I’m surprised Hornsby hasn’t retooled it.
Very enjoyable video. I look forward to seeing your LMS fleet.
'Favourite LNE engine?' Has to be the N2 - memories or flying out of the Cross up to Potters Bar, normally squashed like a sardine in a QuadArt (later BR Mk1s)...
Now we're talking! A real class act!
These were some awesome engines Sam enjoy the rest of your day
Thanks so much Molly - you too! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
The LNER is my favourite of the big four railways, and has just turned 100. Mallard is my favourite locomotive of all time and I'm fascinated by the GER and also GNR to an extent. I do sometimes fault the designs as locos from other railways can sometimes look better and green isn't my favourite livery, but I love the LNER nevertheless.
I love you Sam. :3
You're very kind! :D
Interesting Verity of LNER Sam!!! 🙂🚂🚂🚂
I think the reason the J39 is so popular is because it was a character known as “Tavish” in Simon A Martin’s series “The British Railway Stories”
11:21 this is like thomas puffing by a load of engines that r HUGEEEEEEEEEEEE
Awesome video sam and my favorites liner engines are the flying scottsman and mallard.Plus golden eagle and tornado.
Yesterday I did think of you, Sam. As I found myself in the Adelaide hills.
At one of the very Few Level crossings left on any Mainlines in Suburbia.
A Goods Train probably heading to Melbourne. Hauled by Two monster Diesels, which took a total of 13 mins plus to Pass. With such an Assortment Of Old Wagons and Containers it was mind bending..!
I think I only counted 6 that Didn't have Major Graffiti art on them.
I would have filmed it, But by the time I had thought about it Half had already passed.
I couldn't believe the Sorry state of some of the Rolling stock, it looked like 1950/60's stuff with Container flats following up...!!
Just thought I'd slide this Rail Sighting in. As our Rail system Downunder is much to be Desired..! By maybe India or Nepal..!?
Cheers All. 😎
I literally don't know an LNER loco that I don't like! Great running session Sam!!
Personally, it's got to be the GWR for me.
I've aways loved the GWR styling. The Southern railway is a good second though. Excellent video as always.
All the GW engines look the same - they just get bigger or smaller! Archaic cab design, overcomplicated valve gear arrangements on their bigger engines, and basically sitting on their laurels from 1924 until 1948.
Great video! As a newbie in the hobby I think the Flying Scotsman is a must have loco, so, maybe that will be my next purchase. I'll anxiously wait for the LMS video, it has some of my all time favorite locomotives.
Neat idea seeing as how there are so many locomotives made by the LNER
I know! It's crazy how many there were! :O
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
really good video.I have a BR version of all the locos, plus aJ11 and K3 and C2 Atlantic
hi sam.. again i am impressed with your collection . well done...
Thanks so much my friend!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Really enjoyed this video would love to see a LMS video in the future- Mark
Nice i love models
Thanks Sam, another great session to whisk us away from the madness for a few minutes. A4s all the way for me. Still GWR for me if I had to pick just one, but love em all! Something about Crimson Lake that I am looking forward to! Cheers...
That N2 is gorgeous!
I know - lovely models those! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
My favourite LNER B1, K1, K4, A3, A4 J81, J36 D49, V2 and A1 and A2 from peppercorn my favourite working on the Scottish Region railway
Sam One old newbie hooked :-)
thanks
awesome video today Sam my favourite is flying Scotsman
Thanks James - that's very good to hear! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
nice lner are nice keep up the good vids sam stay safe lee
Thanks a lot Lee, appreciate it!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Hello Sam great video
Hello! Thank you so much! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I like steames. LNER is an exception. I love LNER locomotives. They are in a very beautiful paint scheme.
haha glad to hear that Stefan! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Verry good video Sam so interesting yesterday was my birthday. About 15 years ago I went in the cap of the flying Scotsman.
You legend.
A very good running session i do like your choices my favourite has to be a A1 or a P2
very, very relaxing....... thank you. Southern is still the tops, if only for looking to the future with EMU's
2:06 sam dedicated his first part of train
For me have to be the Mallard and Flying Scotsman. Them two put LNER on the map. Brilliant choices mate 🙂
Yep - easily the two most famous!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Union of South Africa 60009 was by far the most popular A4,not named "Queen of Steam" for nothing and she always had a great crew Too.
@Sam’s Trains The LNER J39 has the power class of 4P5F, tying with the SR Q1 class and appeared about 20 years before than the austerity loco. The LNER J38 is much more both intriguing and interesting, because it has the power class 6F yet it has 28k lbf, which is less than the Q1.
Wow Sam all that Sea of LNER green left me Green with Envy.
I have a Few Loco's but nothing like that lot..!
Forgive my "OO Envy". But I just can't help it..!!
Cheers kim in Oz.😎
Your trains are good
I'd like to see more model manufacturers make more engines in the D series such as the D15, D20, D21, and D40.
I like how you included the art deco parts considering the fact that not many people know about art deco
Sam - the V2 was originally designed for fast freights. The first of the class, 'Green Arrow', was named after the LNE's premium freight service! Both your Gresley unstreamlined Pacifics were A3s LOL! Look at the square covers each side of the smokeboxes - it's present on both, denoting a 220lb boiler (the defining feature of the A3). The Gresley A1 lacks these covers...The 'banjo' dome appeared in 1934, and the absence of such in no way denotes an A1...
You know my favourite of the big four but they all have their own wonderful locos. I am currently enjoying looking into the railways of East Anglia (not far from where I live) so D16's, B17's, J15's are my locos of choice at the moment.
The LNER is my favorite of the big 4, and my top 3 locomotives are the LNER J15, K3, and J94!
Glad to hear that! And great picks too - love those! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Quite the orchard you got there Sam
haha!! See what you did there! ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I'd call your collection a private miniature museum.
My favorite LNER locomotives are the A3,A4,D49 and the V2 locomotive
Great picks there - love them!! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Looking very nice Sam
I’ve got the j50 I got it from hattons and I’m satasvied with hattons delivery service there are soo many locos here I would like lol
Thx Ben :)
A green A4 and a blue Scotsman. What parallel universe did I fall into this time?
there were a lot of steam trams like that in Belgium and the Netherlands, on 1067 and 1000 mm... even a Garrat!
I have to comment this Sam and the Comment Community because I can’t take it anymore: I’ve been very interested in the NER 66 aka “Aerolite”. He was being rebuilt many times until he became a 2-2-4T loco. He pulls the railway’s mechanical engineer on a special train. He is the only loco of his class and was preserved at the NRM. We always forgot that it is this loco that Whiff was based on, though the character himself was quite controversial, imo. I dunno about Mattel or Gullane or Alcroft merchandising T&F but I believe that he should have been part of the T&F model loco fleet, for railway enthusiasts, because of him being very rare and unique. Tbh, after seeing many of his episodes, Whiff is my favorite character in the CGI series, especially his US dub character because the voice actor gave character to him and all the more reason for me to be very interested to him.
LNER is my favourite
Cool video! I really like all the engines you have there! I'm also wondering if you could review some Japanese steam locomotive like a D51 200
My favourite LNER Engine is The B12 with its beautiful apple green color and it’s smooth speed
Actually a Holden design for the Great Eastern...
@paulcaswell2813 oh thanks, I was new to trains, and still am
@@80chic Sorry ;-). Anyway - enjoy the hobby 🙂
Lner takes over Sam's layout and other stories
haha yup... I've been overrun! ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
LNER simply the best!
Nice one again Sam tho I'm a little miffed you have more than me 😭😂
LNER 1935 is a K3 (the only one to carry apple green) - loco in front (62027) is a K1 though this class was built after LNER days
Good one Sam! I love the Southern too but it's so hard to beat a Gresley! ;-)
I bet it is getting rather toasty in the train room right now! terribly hot everywhere! xD
The J83 at 3:38 is an ex North British Railway D class built under CME Matthew Holmes long serving time with the NBR. First delivered in 1901.
These should be more well known as they had one of the lowest maintenance costs of any LNER class, and had the highest mileage of any LNER 0-6-0T. Only three J83s failed to record 1 million miles during their lifetime, and No. 9830 managed to record a total of 2 million miles. Always a desirable feature for a railway. But all scrapped by 1962.
The clever systematic LNER locomotive classification system had all the ex NBR 0-6-0T locos grouped in classes J81 to J88.
The same system with the ex NBR 0-6-0 tender engines grouped from J31 to J37. For example your named Hornby J36 also produced under Holmes. I recall your L&NER lettered one, but missing here.
Pity the Hornby J83 is such an ordinary, inaccurate and basic model. Unlike the outstanding J36 from Hornby.
The LNER classification system also grouped other constituent companies locomotives together.
The LNER encyclopaedia online will open your eyes to the system so that eventually once a class letter and number is given you can tell from this the wheel arrangement, tank or tender and which company it came from.
The variety of LNER Locomotives is an eye opener, as you say, and the class system is so informative in a succinct manner unlike all the qualification and duplication of the others in the big four.
Might be worth a vid explaining the LNER classification system using examples from your fleet and photos to open the eyes of those able to watch and learn.
Maybe a vid on the chaos of the other groups lack of system.
Eg the LMS had about ten or more different locomotive classes as 4F . Some tender some tank. Some 4-6-0, some 0-6-0.
Sam has so much cash for locos I'm sure he could fork out for either the RCTS 'Standard Work' - the full set of 'Locomotives of the LNER' (14 vols), or even the mammoth Yeadon's Register...
Great LNER collection you have there. Good info. Think you should have added the Evening Star also.
Thanks very much - sadly Evening Star was BR loco, so not suitable for this vid!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains thanks for reverting.. Didn't know that.
the applegreen livery of the LNER clinched it for me many (many..!!!) years ago......been a sucker for it ever since.....
but i do like the "other" railways too......:-)
My favorite are the A4, B12,j50 and the Flying scottman
The V2 was designed as a fast freight, although it was used on passenger trains. You are right to be confused with LNER classification because locos would change so A1 Gresley or A1 Thompson. As far as Thompson being contentious, it has to be remembered that the LNER had the least standardised fleet of all the pre-nationalised companies, with the GWR having the greatest standardisation and the LMS following suit. Thompson knew from experience the maintenance and costs related to this with the high cost of spares. His 2 cylinder B1 was on par with the Black 5 and Hall and there were frame issues with the P2 so perhaps there were reasons to rebuild them. His desire was to build a range of standard designs in the same way as the GW and LMS. He also realised the cost of having 3 cylinder locomotives hence the production of the L1 and B 12. Maybe it was the way he set about the changes that he is such a contentious character.
Absolutely love the LNER. Love the LMS even more - waiting for that one!
Beautiful locos, those last two tank engines looked like tender engines shrunken down
haha yeah they do actually! xD
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
My favourite LNER locomotives are the A1-3, the B12, the D16, the A4 and the J50.
i believe i have seen or heard of the golden eagle and i am still miffed that its green not even attempting to look golden.
LNER is one of most recognizable names in steam locomotive world i reckon (even made cameo of flying Scotsman in LNER colours in racing game - Forza horizon 4), so i appreciate the informative video beefing up my knowledge in the field is also welcome.
You are very lucky to have these well done ur the best -James the class 28
Thanks so much James - I do feel very lucky! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I like them all equally.
Flying scotsman and Mallard is my favourite locomotive

And what are those
They sure did! Glad to hear you've got some too! :D

5 A4s: Mallard, Silver link, Dominion of Canada, Falcon, Peregrine
2 A3s: both Flying Scotsman but one of them has smoke deflectors fitted
1 A1: Royal Lancer
2 P2s: Cock of the north and Wolf of Badenoch, this one is made from a streamlined P2 kit
A D49 Cheshire
A peppercorn A2 AH Peppercorn

Dont own any but I love looking at these engines.
You are awesome
Awhh thank you! :D
I love LNER just like I love you and your videos keep it up. Mabye you could make a 3D print express coach but love the videos - James :)
Thank you so much James - and sure, great idea!! :D

Great video Sam i hope that someone restarts the j50 project because the j50s are my favourite lner loco
Thanks so much! I agree - would be lovely to see one some day! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I would love to see an LNER A5, undoubtedly the most successful 4-6-2T class in the UK. O.S Nock the great railway writer said they were capable of at least 60mph.
LNER is the greatest of the big four. The Flying Scotsman you said was an A1 is an A3 Hornby did produce the A1 in Model form and it did not have the extra plate on the sides of the Smokebox. The Plates were needed to cover the end of the Superheater as it was too wide for the Original Smokebox. Martin. (Thailand) Yorkdale LNER Preservation Railway.
Hornby's original 2004(?) 'Great Northern', in full GN livery was the finest Pacific model Hornby ever made (and of course an A1 too). If you look at the valve gear at the cylinder end, Hornby even correctly modelled the longer Combination Lever which pulled the front of the Union Link lower - which was correct for the short-travel engines. I wonder how many people spotted it... ;-)
book law is an a3 since it has a superheated boiler, it just doesn't have the banjo dome.
Very interesting Sam. My interest in model railways only started midway through 2018 so I am still learning. I still don’t understand how you tell the difference between freight, mixed and passenger locomotives. It would be great if you would cover than sometime. The LMS video is the one I am most looking forward to. I have bought many of these as I live in the East Midlands like you and the exhibition layout I am working on featured LMS, then more military stock.
The difference is down to the power classification assigned by the railway that produced it. A passenger locomotive is one that has a higher power classification for passenger work than frieght, eg LNER class A3 is rated 7P6F so is passenger. Mixed traffic engines have the same power classification for both frieght and passenger work, eg, an LMS black 5 is 5P5F. or 5MT. Frieght locomotives likewise have frieght classification higher then passenger. It is quite unusual for heavy freight engines to display their passenger classification, but they did have them.
