  • Part of the National Railway Museum's Miniature and Model Railway Show's "Driver Experience" weekend, 18yr old Arnold took the controls of a two car diesel 'Red Hen' railcar set on the museum's 1km siding, and did so like a boss!

      He goes to the "Therapy" centers with crayons and paper at a university because he is depressed Trump won. Literally most universities had "adult" therapy centers with crayons and counseling to handle the (devastating) election. My God!

    there's nothing to it but here in the uk they make it out to be a very complex and complicated job and that you need to have all these qualifications but to be honest its an absolute lottery win if you ever manage to secure a job as a train driver or saying that even get to interview stage.

    Red Hens are easy to drive with the self-lapping brake system. Now try with a diesel loco and a pass set up and down some hills using complete different brake system.

    Can somebody explain what the reason is for the squealing of train wheels on the tracks?

    • @williamroberts5826
      @williamroberts5826 Před 6 lety

      The wheels have things called flanges and they keep the train on the track around corners, points and other stuff and they squeal loads. Another reason could just be rusty track.

      Do you know that in Russia, Ukraine and some other CIS states there are so-called "children railways" - 750-mm narrow-gauge lines where 11-15 y.o. kids study different railway professions, and at the age of 14 they can drive diesel loc, and at 15 - retro steam loc! You can see it on CZcams!

    It's not that hard when being told what to do. I don't know why he drove it 'like a boss's because anyone could drive a train like this. What he really needs to try is a full 3-4 hour freight run remembering all speed limits, signals and braking points. Then he would be a boss.
