'Tornado' is back! (Very nearly). What still remains to be done?
A1 Peppercorn Pacific No 60163 'Tornado' built in 2008 has been out of traffic for a couple of years for a major overhaul.
Now it's ready for steam again and the trust who look after it tell us what they've done and what their plans are.

The extraordinary story of Test Car 2 - how to make sure a wagon's brakes work!
Просмотров 15 тыс.Год назад
The Great Central Railway is home to many unusual vehicles. Test Car 2 is one of them. Converted from a passenger carriage it was used to 'let go' or 'slip' wagons from the back of a short train to test how effective their brakes were. It was useful for evaluating new designs of wagons before computer modelling was widespread. Rather than be converted back to passenger stock, the vehicle has be...
Tornado hits the East Coast Main Line for the first time ever - November 2008
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.Год назад
A film from the archive. In November 2008, after trials at the Great Central Railway and some shorter main line runs, the brand new A1 Peppercorn Pacific No 60163 'Tornado' took the East Coast Main Line for the first time for performance trials. This was the final one of three main line trials before the locomotive was painted and prepared for its first ever rail tour. There was a load of sever...
Flying Scotsman celebrates its 100th birthday in action at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway!

It's the most famous steam locomotive in the world - probably because it has led an extraordinary and charmed life. In this short film, there's a little bit of history and some great pictures of Flying Scotsman working hard - and at rest.

Here's a more in-depth look at the workings of San Francisco's unique cable cars. What goes on below the slot - how does the cable stay in tension and how does the grip work? I've already looked at the history and taken a ride in this film ruclips.net/video/QtFpFHuy6D0/видео.html This is a closer look at the technology developed in the 1870s and 1880s which keeps them moving for the delight of ...
The incredible San Francisco Cable cars - now 150 years old. A short film by Tom Ingall

Heading to San Francisco? As the song says you'll leave your heart there, particularly if you ride one of the city's unique cable cars. Incredibly they are 150 years old in 2023 and even more incredibly are completely manually controlled. The cable car grips onto a constantly moving underground cable through a 'slot' between the running rails. Unlike a funicular railway, the car isn't permanent...
One modern Sheffield factory - building two brand new steam engines. A short film by Tom Ingall

It's 2023 and perhaps one of the last things you'd expect to find in a modern factory which produces bespoke components for the renewable energy industry is TWO brand new steam engines.

Old trains - new tech for clearing leaves on the line. On test at Wensleydale Railway in Yorkshire.
Просмотров 21 тыс.Год назад
Leaves on the line has become a real problem for Britain's railways. Wet leaf mulch on steel rail reduces friction and can cause trains to slide, leading to delays and cancellations. Units can develop wheel flats which can mean taking them out of traffic. At the moment, areas with high leaf fall are treated overnight by special trains which spray water on the railhead. Here's a different idea w...
Tornado. The 100mph steam engine. Full film by Tom Ingall

A dramatic night out with the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust. I was given exclusive access to their attempt to run their brand new steam engine Tornado at 100mph. In order to gain certification to regularly operate at 90mph, one of the tests required was to check if it continued to operate safely above that speed. This is the first time a British Steam Locomotive has run at such a speed, since the p...

    I needed to know why they couldn’t dig a tunnel and do an extension for most of the mainline Trains so that they could extend the unused abandoned underground train stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock which will include the class 507, class 508, class 313, class 314 and class 315 remix and make them all together and also redesign all of them into an overhead wire line trains and also make most of them into Five carriages per units and also having three Disabled Toilets on those Five cars per units A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Gardner 6LXC, Cummins M11, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner LG1200 and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 8-Speed Voith Gearboxes even Loud 10-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock, class 507, class 508, class 313, class 314, and class 315 and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into 11 carriages per unit so it could have fewer doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers? A Stock Train and 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it even much more Larger and extend it to the bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Railway tunnel into a High-Speed Railway lines? The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Railway line to make it 11 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. Then put the modernised 11 carriages per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbished 11 carriages per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 47 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project if that will be OK for London Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from the Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden more Easily. Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly Line and also build brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street can they also make another brand new underground train station in Chingford and could they extend the Piccadilly Line and the DLR right up to Chingford? All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, and 106, will be replaced by all of the Gardner 6LXC, Cummins M11, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner LG1200 and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Five carriages three disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extended roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and can they order Every 87 Octagon and Every 48 Hexagon shape LNER diagram unique small no.13 and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 147MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 147MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units, can they use those class 55’s, class 44’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 18 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!, oh can you make all of those 18 Tonne Boxes of Coal for all of those 147MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!!!!!!

Could you imagine 3D printed pistons and cylinders, modern composite boilers, laser printed rods, and so on. How much power could be made simply due to the increased efficiency in the system. Not to mention if we could make it a thorium boiler system. . .man, the things we could do. . .

    Amazing choice! We saw loads of Clans in Barrow, on the 6.30 semifast from Manchester, I think it was. A wide range of motive power was used on this; could've been a class 4 mogul. It'd go out double headed on the London train next day at 1.00pm. Sometimes the other engine was a "Brit" so it was a sight not often seen anywhere else - a clan and a Bit double heading, up the steep incline to Dalton in Furness... Most often, they'd be a couple of filthy 5s. . . we all groaned to see those.

      My fullest admiration for those putting in the dedicated work to keep this high speed steam locomotive flying. Steam locomotives always did need a lot of work & this locomotive is no exception.
