    I’d just like to say thank you for wonderful collection of videos of some of our greatest locos in our most beautiful countryside. My favourite? The king (?) crossing the viaduct with the river boat passing underneath. Simply stunning. Thanks so much for this. Thoroughly enjoyed in its entirety.

    What's the most likely thing to go wrong when a steam loco tries to maintain those sort of speeds for a prolonged period?

    • @acw71000
      @acw71000  Před 7 lety

      I would suspect a hot axle box would be one of the most common things to go wrong

    • @markturner4219
      @markturner4219 Před 5 lety +1

      Not tries, but does maintain those sorts of speeds. They are designed for those speeds (and faster) so nothing is expected to go wrong and rarely does with correct maintenance. Agree, if there should be a rare breakdown related to speed an over heated axle bearing due to a lubrication failure is the most likely.

    • @ollylewin

    • @acw71000
      @acw71000  Před 4 lety

      Various reasons, diesels help with shunting at certain locations and in times of fire risk can be attached to give some power to the steam loco. They can also provide heat to the train if there is no steam heating
