These two locomotives are literally a night and day experience-how they were treated/modified in their working life and cared for. (Or hammered to death 😂) Can’t wait to see these little guys double heading in the near future!

I would like to see how hammer testing is done. I just can’t get over how cool this is. Did you learn all of this stuff from that book you recommended? How did you learn how to restore this? I’m just so impressed and would love to learn as much as I can!

One of the coolest things in the world right here! Where exactly did you find these things? Were they posted online or through word of mouth?

Even that it’s smaller it is going to cost you as much as a big locomotive

That’s kinda cool stuff

When are you going to have another tutor

Yes I would like to know more about hammer testing as I am a retired steam man

Hey man, really enjoying the series. Glad there’s more detailed train restoration content coming on RUclips.

There's one like it in Brazil in the video => Passeio de maria fumaça na Estrada de Ferro Perus Pirapora

This is so interesting. Thanks for sharing your work with us!!!! Looking forward to more videos!!!!

Fantastic, I wish I could be with you lads

This is some quality content.

I love 0-4-0s

09:38... lower the tire pressure :)

As far as I know there is a Locomotive that resembles that of a Porter in Fairbanks Alaska in Pioneer Park. Worth checking out.

Great episode! Porter Power 💪🚂

the music has got to go. it's not the selection of music, just the music. No insult intended, just my opinion. good luck with the channel.

Great video! I'm enjoying it very much. Looking forward to seeing the machining work.

I just found you guys. Right up my alley. Restore a locomotive

It is my understanding that the Counterweights act as the opposite balancing factor of the weight of the drive and connecting rods for the locomotive. There might be a rotational factor involved in offsetting the centrifugal forces involved.

This is fantastic so far! It's so cool to also see all these small details like the wedges and stuff that were used in steam engines. Can't wait to see the first steps in the restoration direction!

Great update as always! This project looks like it's moving along really quickly!

Great video. Keep up the good work. I really find this material very interesting.

Hello, nice videos and excellent work!! I had been seeing the videos since started with the buy of the loco number 1. I’m from Brazil, and here we had a lot of narrow gauge lines that operate, specially, in sugar mills, bananas plantation and also mines too. Here we have a very famous 2 foot gauge railway in the state of São Paulo, called “Estrada de Ferro Perus Pirapora” EFPP, a mine railway to transport cement and lime. With approximately 15 locomotives, from Baldwin, Alco and german and french manufacturers too. I have some videos in my channel with the operation of a locomotive from Decauville. A little bit of the history to share here! Good luck in the work! Thanks

good work my friend a labour of love

I would love to see the hammer test process.

I love how we're getting loads of little updates for this each week

Yes, hammer testing please. I haven’t seen one in 15 or 18 years.

very cool 😎

Can't wait till the day you do the slip test!

you're a legend, mate. Keep up the hard yakka.

the music issue isn't really an issue. it's nice and quiet compared to your voiceover and that turns it into background noise. I think it might just be that some people detest lite metal/rock or something. It's not THAT bad, folks, you're just nitpicking. It's FINE.

Watched all the videos in this series but only just noticed I wasn't subscribed. Sorted that now, don't want to miss any future vids

if you want to find a mother narrow gauge locomotive you could check out, cool springs park wv and here is the address they have two more locomotives that I think you'll like. 12696 George Washington Hwy, Rowlesburg, WV 26425

Thanks!

that old footage of that steam engine being scrapped genuinely made me quite sad. trains are amazing, and its awful to think how many where abandond or roughly torn apart for the metal

This is going to be a great journey. Thank you for sharing and I’m looking forward to learning more about steam.

Will the part where the conductor stays be built for behind the steam engine?

Try penetrating oil instead of WD-40 for everything! And unless you're replacing studs, don't hammer them without a nut screwed onto the end.

The guru's in the uk will certainly let you know that there are no gaskets on a steam engine. They are called joints

I would love to see how to do the hammer testing!

Bolts can't be stuck if they are liquid. 🔥

This has become a really good series. Thanks very much for all your efforts.

(Warning the video is advritized to not be used as a step) *Little do they know, i'm going to come back to this channel and copy the whole thing they done.*

I'd love to see a hammer testing video! That being said, I'd watch pretty much anything by you guys. I appreciate how clearly explained the restoration process is, which helps someone like me who isn't very knowledgeable about these things.

Is that glorious background noise a hit-n-miss engine powering something???

Please do show us the process of hammer testing. I think that’d be very interesting! This has to be one of the best restoration channels I’ve seen in a long time. I practically stop what I’m doing the moment I see a notification from you. Here’s to continued luck on your restoration journey!

Here's Hoping your documentation and efforts are properly appreciated and preserved for the next hundred or so years, and the collective work of yourself and your friends will last at least a couple hundred more. Thanks for Sharing, God Speed.

👍👍👌👌
