Midland Compound 1000 why doesn't she run anymore? Or does she? She seems to be silent, at least for now. Will she ever come back? Also, what was it like on her footplate? These engines fascinate me, so I'd love to learn as much as I can about her.
Something I find truly Impressive is that 1054's current boiler is actually from a 17" Coal Engine built in 1876, and that she's still going after over a century of operation!
Chris Eden-Green I pronounce it 'Shroosbury' but my mum says 'Shrowsbury' and my girlfriend told me 'Shrowsbury it is, because your mother, she is ALWAYS right!' D:
oh i just didnt reconize it as ive seen it a few times in the museum thing were they keep tiny & nunlow at ingrow west station as ive last saw it at the rere of nunlow
70 years of service? That's impressive!
She is such a fantasic loco, I once fired her, she was easy to fire, also great sole slip Chris.

As far as i know, she’s still in fairly active service on the KWVR.

She's now running again on the KWVR!
Excellent SOLE SLIP! I was lucky enough to have a Cab Ride on her at Barrow Hill Roundhouse at Model Rail Live in 2014! Thanks for Sharing!
W.A "Cam" Camwell Fav Loco,Which he had on Birthday Train.Thank you for this Film
It’s a beautiful loco
Love riding behind it, what a good chuff she has
Fantastic and impressive
This engine seem just nice. And that's enough for me.
Excellent stuff as always Chris, although most locals pronounce Shrewsbury as it sounds rather than as "Shrowsbury". :)
This is true. Though, I can say that I've heard it both ways from the same people, some even locals.

Can you Do a Paint your engine video of this?
Can you do a sole slip on the LSWR T3 that is currently at Corfe Castle on the Swanage Railway?
Excellent as always! :D
I prefer the look of this to a fancy tender engine 🤷♂️ Unpopular opinion 😂
How odd to make a video of a specific locomotive and then not show any full shots of it.
This may be pretty difficult, but any chance of a SOLE SLIP review of the LSWR T14 class?
MiscMischief48 How could a class of loco entirely scrapped by 1951 appear in a series about locos that are the only surviving examples of their class?
Sorry, I wasn't thinking at the time of posting that comment. I'm just one of the few that love that engine class so much.
absolutely gawjuss pice of kit
XD I know a story of a 2-6-0 Tender engine who had wooden break blocks ;) Anyways she's a beauty!
TheRailwaytales Of Sodor you mean 0-6-2
257 productions or 2-6-0
god damn
MagicOfTheRails Ah, of course, the egoistic punk called James.
James the red engine
Wooden brakes, really who thought that was a good idea until they catch fire, of course.
She's not operational today, is she?
Oh yes, she's fully operational, though mainly used on special events and vintage train days rather than normal service
Wooden brakes you say?
isnt there anouther coal tank on KWVR 0.o
This is the one based at Keighley. But, to the casual eye, it's also easy to confuse this with the TVR tank No 85
oh i just didnt reconize it as ive seen it a few times in the museum thing were they keep tiny & nunlow at ingrow west station as ive last saw it at the rere of nunlow
Chris Eden-Green Speaking of the TVR O2 Class, are you going to make a video about it?
