The S1 had serious adhesion issues IRL since only half of its weight(without the tender) was pressing on the driving wheels, which may explain the slow start. Ideally you want most(atleast 3/4’s)of a steam locomotive’s weight pressing on the driving wheels
some other comenters have pointed it out in the past, but the AI (or Lazerjet himself) is just shit at setting up the S1 which doesn't have these problems for other users
Interesting that the NYC Dreyfuss Hudson beat the Mallard in one of your races and in your American steam race, the S1 just about finished close to the Hudson. So, I am surprised that the S1 lost.
You say that American steam locomotives are big and those in the UK are small, I will agree with that. But you also have to consider "why" they were bigger in the first place. The US cover MUCH more land than the UK and therefore larger engines are used to get things done.
@@oliverwinsper9455 I don't see why people proceed to add *American locomotive are not as Stylish* Of course Not, They were all Built for Fright hauling In tough Conditions, Of course they are going to have So many pipes, air compressors,Valve gears being exposed.
@@oliverwinsper9455there are a few that are quite beautiful. The challenger being one of them. You also have to factor in the fact that US built locomotives weren't built for style they were built for hauling freight not passengers, no need to be stylish or fancy.
If you mean in style and Looks than I see your opinion, but if you mean by hauling freight and passengers, nope Americans win that one. But just because a video or game shows you something, it doesn't mean it's true. The S1 has a slow start to it, but it's faster than the marllard
Hi Lazerjet my name is Nicholas. I liked your race video where it was Big Boy, the Union Pacific Challenger, the Union Pacific 844, Daylight, The New York Central Hudson and the S1. For your next video please could you make a massive track and have the New York Central Hudson vs the S1?
S1 would win if driven by player and not AI. I was in beta testing team and did the screenshot for website. This Steamer really has some serious speed to it hitting even 168mph on my tests and often being at 152-156mph on NEC (Washington-Baltimore)
@user-jh6ik1qd7p acceleration doesn't matter. It's the top speed of the engine that actually matters. And Mallard was going downhill with a tailwind anyway.
@@Fold-103 good question... probably because the British railway systems were so busy (not) that they built a dynamometer car to measure the speed. The S1's was never perfectly run on a dynamometer car, it was simply a speeding ticket they'd received.
the S1 was flawed as all hell, suffering wheel slip issues that mean it's either a slow start or no start for the S1, as such I must vote for the A4 bring in a PRR T1 however...
Lazerjet, could you please run these locomotives at a more realistic power rating? %125? Really? You would find that it is much more interesting when these engines are running at realistic speeds. Just a thought.

actually, it hasn´t been that much of a problem, matter of fact, it had similar adhesion to the later q2 duplex
The S1 was 140 ft long, the longest steam loco ever built, it had 7200 hp, and was rumored to go 156 mph.
I hope LaZeR Jet sees this comment
(The one above mine)
Hard to believe any loco was bigger than the UP Big Boy
It was the longest yes but Big Boy is the biggest ever built and had more driving wheels. S1 just had a longer tender
@@tegusnakegaming1441 But the Blue Ridge locos where the heaviest
@@thunderchief7256Big Boy is still the superior locomotive
The S1 is like the steam equivalent of the bullet train
If bullet trains were steam engines
That's what I keep saying, it's basically a bullet steam engine.
Except it’s not
@@jonathanparry7824 yeah that’s what the word equivalent means

he's shit at seting up the S1.
Yeah. Maybe it is because of the model
While the S1 is problematic because of its size and serious wheel slips, it’s still an amazing train for its speed and streamlined.
the 6-4-4-6 wheel arrangement has a huge design flaw
While the S1 is a beautiful engine its size gives it a painfully slow start in these races
It's been a while since I watched these videos. I forgot how entertaining it is. Nice video!
Yeah, I can agree with you on that...
It's always a good day when lazerjet uploads!
Yea true when he uploads it’s brightens my day
I
I am having a very good day now.
You should do another stream with the S1 using passenger cars. Idk where to get pennsy ones but the empire builder ones are pretty nice.
The gg1 pack has Prr coaches
There's a Broadway Limited pack that comes with one of the Baldwin shark noses.
WELL DONE MALLARD! :D
Junk
1:55 I thought you may leave that second tender on for the race. ;)
The S1 is great, it's just too large to be practical.
No. It's not. It's built for speed & power, unlike mallard, which is more on the speed side of things.
@@knightryder6068yes it was that’s one of the reasons why only one S1 was built. It could only be run on one line
If you had a longer race track i think the s1 could win
Oh if you want to see the S1 in real life, you can't sadly. 😔
She was retired in 1946, and scrapped 3 years later.
Hi lazerjet I’m a huge fan I love your videos and streams
Great video, LaZeR!
Nice I wish I had this game too bad I have no pc
L
U take the L ×2300
i have been watching since 20k keep up the good work!
Apparently PRR were fined for going 135mph - 155mph. Using a watch and timing distance between stations is legitimate way to measure speed.
I think Mallard is the fastest steam engine ever

In my eyes the s1 is better looking
To be fair, I'm an American, and I personally think the UK has better engines than us. And this video proves it. So, A4.
If you mean in style and Looks than I see your opinion,
but if you mean by hauling freight and passengers, nope Americans win that one.

@@DistanceNsVeterans Yeah, that's what I mean.
@@joeleboeuf did you read the read more?
@@DistanceNsVeterans Yes, that's why I said, "that's what I mean." The American engines are stronger, but the UK engines are more visually appealing.
@@joeleboeuf just making sure
Ok timeout thats not really fair considering the S1 is WAYYYYYYYY heavier than the Mallard
hello i got the mod and put it in the folder for my ts2020 but now it wont start what to do??
Is this available for Trainz simulator 2022

0:50 💥
I love your Merch Lazer
Oliver Do you use the class 47 Diesel to race with as well, or do you just use it to monitor the races.
S1 is the best loco I think
Hey LazerJET how do you prgram what button do you press?
Hello lazer, great video, have a great day.
The programming never gives the S1 a fair chance. It usually shoots off like a rocket whenever I’m driving it
How does go about installing mods like the PRR S1? I've downloaded it but not sure how to install it lol
Wait until you see the big boy in real life.
If there was more track s1 would win
I hope one day you could post these tracks to the Steam Workshop
Nice,
Malard fan here.. It is as it should be. :P
Cool
S1❤
You r raceing two of my favorite trains
This is going to be the best video
I love the modern look of the streamline prr s1
s1 looks really good in my opinion
Mallard: see you later, slow coach.
Prr s1 was catching up
Lazer Mallard is the world fast loco so she will win
All i see in lazer jet comment sections are cringy comments lmao
Мне очень нравятся ваши видео, потому что мне нравятся поезда
Union pacific 844 used to be the quickest and now it is slow
But now there is a new rocket the s1
By a long way, I'd have to choose mallard, I mean it is my 4th favourite train (3rd: city of turo, 2nd: tornado, 1st: flying Scotsman
The Mallard you got was was the Prototype thats why L.N.E.R was Red😂
3:28 to ignore boring part
The best RUclipsr ever
S1 would win if driven by player and not AI. I was in beta testing team and did the screenshot for website.
This Steamer really has some serious speed to it hitting even 168mph on my tests and often being at 152-156mph on NEC (Washington-Baltimore)
Request: PRR T1 Vs PRR S1
there isn't a T1 for TSC yet
@@jaytrain06 Oh
@@jaytrain06 Is there a Mod?
S1 is the steam version of a bullet train
And his Brother the T1
Y E S
I mentioned this in one of my comments in the stream. Thank you.
Well done MALLARD TRAIN 👏
PRR S1
VIDEO IDEA
Flying Scotsman (2 tenders and smoke deflectors) against the S1with Flying Scotsman with coaches and the S1 with freight
Do union pacific 844 vs S1
The battle of the two rocket steam trains
Imagine s1 and up844 both at 200% power
Hi Lazer Jet I’m from America 🇺🇸
Funnily enough the mallards steam speed record might be beat in the coming years now that a group is building a prr T1 4444
Bro u should have a play button by now!
S1
You gotta have 2 races
Drag race and this race
Pre’y
-LaZeR JET
Prr s1
Can my LNER A1 VS GWR Castle idea be next, please?
You should do s1 vs NYC Hudson
The s1 seems like it's bugged, when I drive it without any load full throttle it'll accelerate like a car almost
Have thomas the tank engine in the race in your next video to race
Do it again with a longer track and give the S1 a 3 second head start due to its slow acceleration
s1
Do the s1 and big boy in a rac😁😁
all though i do know an engine that can beat mallard in train sim. classic the good ol, NYC Hudson😶🌫️
of course mallard won 😏
Hey can u make the rails much more longer so the trains can make more speed but if it’s small the trains won’t be able to catch up and get more speed
Cool man
I went to the Mallard 75 Great Gathering.
S1 is a very very popular locomotive
CAN YOU DO FLYING SCOTMAN VS MARLLAD
Nice vid
Race pennsylvania and mallard double head vs big boy and hudson pls
I have to say mallard has to win because of it’s speed and the streamline
The Pennsylvania railroad was actually fined for going 152 mph in the S-1, but nobody seems to care about that.
@@knightryder6068 its just that the s1 had a slow acceleration than the mallard
@user-jh6ik1qd7p acceleration doesn't matter. It's the top speed of the engine that actually matters. And Mallard was going downhill with a tailwind anyway.

bring in a PRR T1 however...
Faster than A4, I'm picking S1 because of its main Ability.
Mallard : 140 mph top
PRR S1 : 160 mph top
Prr s1 is failure IRL
Lazerjet, could you please run these locomotives at a more realistic power rating? %125? Really? You would find that it is much more interesting when these engines are running at realistic speeds. Just a thought.
Oi Lazerjet what's your favorite steam locomotive in the UK
And also I’m a big fan
plz do the bullet train vs s1
first (finally)
Nope. Better luck next Time (not trying to insult or anything).
Do gg1 vs mallard race because the gg1 is apparently faster than the mallard
THE S1
Mallard train It's a best trainer it's really fast
Mallard is slower than s1 because it can got at 126 MPH and the S1can go at 156 MPH
Lazer can you check the S1in Jones 3d modelling club
S1 s1!🎉
Mallard only won because of the short race trCk
AHAHA a missleitete on the tracks
