The Union Pacific Gas Turbine failed here in the states for the same reason, but ours managed to have a decent service life because at first the turbines were run on Bunker C fuel which was a really thick crude fuel that wasn't used at the time so they still managed to turn a profit until it managed to get refined by the plastics industry and they found some other uses for it driving up costs eventually leading to it's end.
from what i have read, the GT 3 may have only been intended as a test bed/display piece for the tech. just my thought, but i bet if BR had expressed interest, EE would probably have made something different as a working model.
in wildnorwester's series of Thomas the Tank Engine (LB&SCR E2 Tank Engine) There's an 8f named Peter (Peter the Heavy Goods) that long train is actually suitable for an 8f
Somebody built a model of GT3, 5 inch gauge I think, with a real gas turbine power plant in it. I saw it some years ago at a model engineering exhibition, and there are videos of it on RUclips.
Edwardzzzz9 Also, the reason why the signal changed so late is because of complicated signalling thing called "checking" which is used to make sure trains stick to speed limit and such.
0.50... "Bit of a laugh".!🤔!. F'ing hilarious.!🤣!. Couldn't stop laughing.!🤣!. Nearly pissed myself.!🤣!. You should do stand-up.! You'd kill it.!🤥🤥🤥🤥🤬! Jesus Christ.🤬🤬!.
+Justin Pearce I imagine you could but why TS2014? TS2016 is the current version and even if you don't want to buy it there should be a free upgrade to make it so.
harrison stewart 18000 and 18001 were built by GWR before nationalisation occured. They were both Gas Turbine locomotives, so when the loco in the video was built, they went for GT3 instead of 18002. 18000 is GT1 and 18001 is GT2, but no officially. Did that make any sense, lol?

And then we got the centennials.
Starting up that train seems so simple compared to starting a PMDG 737 :P
The boiler thingy is for train heating...
THE MORE YOU KNOW
The reason why the Gas Turbine 3 was extremely inefficient was because if it's absolute lack of aerodynamics.

Its the Rolls Royce Dart on rails! Even yhe sounds are the same lol

I love the start up sequence! Love your vids
" it's an A4 Pacific before someone had a go at it with a cheese grater"
LOL

btw the schools class has a wind screen wiper

Alex Paumen Peter The Heavy Goods Engine sorry
What happened to your crash compilation videos?
We need to bring back steam trains I think we should use them for short distance and diesel for long distance
In efficient
Another fantastic video Moleman! Good review!
+Moleman978 YOU ARE THE BEST TS RUclipsR EVER!!! Thank you for the video!!!!
that headcode is the royal train code
no it's the express headcode royal train headcode has a lamp in every space

Its a 76! Excellent video, looking to buy this loco soon!

"The Phantograph"
Long freight train? Come to America and see ours. :)
I’m Canada we also have some really long trains. I once had to wait almost an hour for train in Wetaskiwin, Alberta
main reason it failed was it needed turning and BR was getting rid of turntables so with the lack of cabs at each end it was a waste of time and money
I like the usatc s160 it's a berry detailed steam loco
Can you do a video on the class 350 Stratford to rugby line plz
Reace Phipps You don't have to ask me to cover new DLC, I always will
Makes me wish they would make a APT-E train.

You should do stand-up.! You'd kill it.!🤥🤥🤥🤥🤬!
Jesus Christ.🤬🤬!.
Cool! Still can't beat a Union Pacific gas turbine-electric locomotive. P.S does the GT3 have a simple control version?
A cigarette lighter on wheels I’d describe it as 😂😂😂
EM 1 is a class 76 EM 2 in Class 77
That definitely “not” confusing
Doorbell banter!

158912?
can you use this engine on train simulator 2014 ?
+Justin Pearce I imagine you could but why TS2014? TS2016 is the current version and even if you don't want to buy it there should be a free upgrade to make it so.
+Moleman978 what route can you use this engine?
+Justin Pearce let me know soon
+Moleman978 can i use this on any route tell me what route i can use this engine?
you can use it anywhere..
where do you get the 8F?
Jonathan Liptak I think it comes with the woodhead line
It looks like it's built of legos.

LEGO NOT LEGOS THERE IS NO S IN LEGO
legos
+Yellowstone The Pony Lego themselves say its like the word sheep. the noun and plural are exactly the same.
is there a gt2
Weirdly no, but they had plans for a GT1 but never did it and since the can't count the next one was a GT3

Restore all steamtrains!!!!! OoO
I drive one of them in real life o God get 10 trucks behind it is a nightmare
Do you have kids
no
Yeah I am many, MANY years from that aspect of life :P
