I absolutely love this series and hope you continue with it for a 3rd season. It's always nice to see an old locomotive able to return to the tracks.
Thank you so much David - I am thinking of a 3rd season!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
There it is, my favorite format!
I just love it, especially when I'm on break at work.
It's just so pleasing to watch.
Please make another season, Sam.
That's awesome to hear - thank you so much, really glad you like it!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
This is a really enjoyable concept of a series, the only thing I would like to see more is if there was a minute or two of said saved loco running around the railway with a load, that would be satisfying
I really agree mate!
Thank you for the idea - I'll think about that for next time!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
We had to miss out on this one yesterday, but such a lovely Loco. We just love many 70, 80 and 90s models from the brand we collect. Like this, specially in the 70s, they were simple but super sturdy and just look seriously good quality for what they are. This one looks like a little gem to be had. Gladly you’ve brought it back to life once again 👏👏👏 Cheerio.
Ahh sorry to hear that - but yeah it was a great era you're right!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Heres a fun fact, the creator of Thomas the Tank Engine, the Rev. W. Awdry, made MANY model railways of his books, and one of his Henry models (ironically enough) was a terrible runner, always breaking down, etc. The model seemingly disappeared, and for over 60 years, the history preservation of Awdry's old models figured he threw it away. Until, checking one of his old desks, they found it! Half taken apart with a little box that had "Henry parts" written on it. Even up until his death, Awdry refused to give up on that engine! Now discovered, the partially restored Henry is now on display with the other models.
Although many of the models are old, I am still amazed how you get away with washing and brushing them so vigorously without damaging the finish.
I just feel sorry for the Dock Authority that was not salvaged. I have a soft spot for these.
I cannot wait until the 3rd series if you do decide to do another one.
haha yeah - you probably wouldn't get away with it on modern locos, but I've never damaged an old one doing that... they're tough stuff!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Sam how long will your end of year break be this time? Go spend some quality time with your family and Chloe you deserve it. 😊
Please bring this season back to inspire people in keeping these beautiful models alive! These days it's all about being sustainable and repairing/repurposing/reusing. They're always great entry level models building a fleet quickly as a hobby newb.
And seriously, how good does the electro-plated safety valve bonnet look! Sooo much better than painted.
8:18 I had a model I bought 20 years ago from a model shop, a second hand Triang Jinty. As a kid it was 'Thomas' brother' cos of the shape, but it was £7 because it was a dead non-runner. Well, I kept putting it on the track and for fun, having one of my working models struggle to 'push' it. I liked the wheelslip, haha. Well, few times of doing this, once I noticed the Jinty's wheels start to move. Only a tiny bit. So, I took all other trains off, full power on the controller, and flicked between forwards and reverse. I did this for 3 hours or so, And eventually coaxed the engine back into doing a full wheel rotation. Just amazed me such a stubborn engine was now running. They're tough those motors.!
Ahh yes very similar to this - that's amazing too - what a way to bring it back!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Been waiting for this one. I have a 1980s black Hornby Pannier Tank and it’s a wonderful performer
I was lucky enough to be on the linesides in the 50s true we were losing locos every week but new Standards were being turned out . Your knowledge and enthusiasm Sam is amazing . The repair vids are the creme de la monf
This series is my cup of tea. I have two 64xx pannier tank i have saved from the scrap man both run very well love to double head them hope to see a new series of salvage or scrap
Same as everyone else here really like this series. Hope u bring it back next year.
My dear old dad bought me this model when they first came out. It was indestructible, stupidly fast and could out-pull every locomotive I ever owned. I loved it! Nice work Sam. I'm bidding!
Sam, the ebay link to the repaired loco in these videos is a big spoiler. I suggest moving it down into the 'Show more' section of the description
Nice to see another salvage or scrap video!
I actualy ended up with one of these from a friend who had it in their shed,sadly sparks flew out of it every time the weels went round!
Thanks Ben, glad you liked it! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Love the tank engines. Thanks for trying to save it.
One of my favourites. My first loco in n gauge, a graham farrish made in Poole back in the 90s which got a little tlc to get it running again. I picked up a 64xx oo gauge which still has life in it.
Loved this series! A great way to learn what can and does go wrong with some locos, particularly if they've been left around like mine have been and sadly are probably going to continue to be at least until I end up inheriting my Papa's layout. Not a pleasant thing to think about from all angles but I don't have the electrical intellect to build my own so that's just the situation... Still though, this series has been great at mentally preparing me for the day that comes and I get to move all my trains over there to run! I hope this show does get a season 3 and even hopefully a season 4 in the future! Thanks for all the educational entertainment, Sam!
Salvage or Scrap is some of my favorite Sam's Trains content.
I enjoyed this video as much as all the others in the series. I hope you continue with a third one, I really like seeing these vintage locos coming back to life!
Great series Sam . Always good to see you salvage an old engine . Hope you do another series next year these are fun to watch .
The mending of locos was great to watch, please do another series
Great program as usual.
A few additions...a selection of small Tuna Tinlets to hold all those small Screws...NOT loose on the Bench.
A selection of Tweezers to hold small screws/parts for disassembly or Re-assembly ( Surgical Forceps are Ideal, as are Self- Holding ones.)
The work style on a Pannier Tank is the same for a 1970s Rivarossi Big Boy...just more screws etc.
My Italian period ( 1974-83) saw a huge collection of American style Plastic and Brass locos accumulated, shifted home to Aussie, and remain in Boxed Storage (1984-2023) since then ( other obligations...Family, Work, University, Health etc)...Now that I am Semi-Retired, I can do a Lazarus on all my HO stuff as well as doing my 0n42 QGR 1930s Diorama ( working, scratchbuilt).
Merry Christmas and a Happy & Prosperous New Year.
BTW, will be getting a Bespoke 3D Printer capable of doing 1:48 scale Colonial type Locos and Rolling Stock
( 40' average).
The Tr-ian/Hornby PannierTank loco was my first proper Electric train, I got it as part of a set. GWR Pick up goods set, c1976/77 ish, included in the set was a wheel wagon the OCAEN wagon, Fine Fish wagon, Kellogs wagon and a GW Brake van, a small station, level crossing junction signals a set of points , an uncoupling ramp, buffer stop, card tunnel (with plastic ends) and a kit form goods shed. gave many years service!
Great video as usual, and we all would love another season of this show. You can't stop making this as it's so much fun to watch. And I'm sure you'll find some more great contenders to fix up again.
Thank you so much Matty, that's awesome to hear! I am thinking of doing one last season next year! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again. You are incredible with this! I couldn’t imagine trying to do this. Great work Sam!
I spy a Ronald Dodd remagnetiser! One of my favourite modelling tools 😎
Love this kind of series , I hope you continue to a new series .
I picked up one of these in a lot from Goodwill here in the US. Mine was completely seized as well. I was able to clean it up and get it to work more or less but is still not a great runner. Will need to tear it down again. Being repainted as Great Northern Railroad US. Take care and all the best and thanks for the great video!
Nice looking engine here Sam, good to see it restored.
Astounding performance ! You're right, this engine is a beauty, and she's great running again.
I'll be there for your third season, I think this is your best idea for your channel outside your tests. Keep the good job done !
Hey Sam! What an honestly great series this was! I certainly hope a 3rd season comes, but remember, you're the one who decides at the end of the day, take a break and come back when you feel the time is right!
I had this exact same engine in the early 90s, was bought from a second hand model railway shop in Bridlington. On their layout it ran superb, on mine it didn't run so well at all. Even back then it wasn't a realistic looking model, and how it ran made it unusable as a shunter on my layout regardless of which power supply I used. Great video BTW, I wonder if it was my old model you have, I never mistreated it but anything could have happened after I parted with it.
Salvage or Scrap is my favourite lets hope there's more series on the way🤞🤞🤞. Cmon Sam.
Great job Sam...well done....I still have the one my Mum got me for Christmas 1975....still going strong....great loco....thanks.
I'm doing a restoration on a late 60s early 70s. The moulding is rubbish by today's standards, so I'm going to try and upgrade as much as I can to make it look a little more realistic. However, removing the paint is a serious challenge. 4 different types of stripper have failed to do anything. I'd be grateful for any hints from viewers.
Another good video Sam.
@@petere1060 Really! Only one small problem, I'm living in Germany atm. I'll look on Amazon.
@@DaiElsan Hi Dave. I live on the French/German border and I normally buy my household cleaning products in Germany. I have seen Dettol available and also the German brand but I forgot it’s name.
It works very well as a paint stripper and doesn’t damage plastic at at all eg the canopies of my model aircraft. I have used other brands (Lidl back home in the UK) which work too but Dettol is the best.
Guten abend!
Ian
@@bugler75 Vielen dank. Schönes Wochenende.
I'm over on the Czech German Border. Lol
@@DaiElsan
Bitte schöne!
The other side of the country from me!
I’m very fortunate, I have an independent Train Shop 15 minutes from me in Überherrn in the Saarland.
Maybe someday our paths will cross!
Tschüss!
Ian
Whoa, I was just watching your videos yesterday, and I was a little sad that the season hadn't been continued in a while.. Lucky me, huh? That pannier tank is such a nice model, I'm glad you're fixing it right up! (hasn't finished the video)
For the next series - can I suggest a brush,bowl of warm soapy water and a bowl of clean water upstairs ready to go? Saves a trip downstairs.
What a perfect finale, really enjoy this series, I do hope you make a 3rd next year, would be really looking forward to it! - TIDS
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed these,
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Love your "quirky side", Sam! 🙃
wonderful sam, cracking good job as always. merry christmas :D
Id like a 3rd season as it gives an insigh in hobto service trains especially when you are short for tie
LOVE THIS SERIES. Please make a season 3!!!
Awesome video today Sam I would love to see another series of salvage or scrap really enjoy them
Very well made and put together
Well done on this job another great repair!
Hi Sam, I was watching your live stream on Friday, I'm sure you remember me, I was the guy who said more Murphy models.
I really thought you had not set yourself enough time to fix this one, but you ended up breezing it. Nicely done.
My Dad's needs something similar. It just suffers from intermittent contact. I've oiled it but sounds like it needs taking apart and a good cleaning down.
Love salvage or scrap. I find it really interesting. Im not a fan of the timer aspect though and wouldnt mind that getting dropped! Keep up the amazixng vids mate!
Thank you so much! Yes some people aren't a fan, but it is integral to this show/format!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Well done Sam keep up with the good work really enjoy what you are doing
Awesome video Sam's trains
Sam i have just did a gwr pannier tank like yours .i got mine off ebay as spares or repair .after i took body it was carbon brushes where upside down .so cleaned commutator and refitted them so i have a working loco now
I love watching this, it’s probably the only reality show I actually enjoy, I’d love to see a season 3 and maybe see some more different locomotives, maybe some big American steam locomotives or something, give Sam a real challenge haha, amazing work
Wow that's amazing to hear - thank you so much for the kind words!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Yes, do another season, I love this show!😀
I managed to pick up one of these from a second hand shop for £1, the shop owner said it didn’t work, after a good clean it now works beautifully. It’s just missing the metal cap to the chimney but I’m sure I can get something somewhere
I loved the video same I really loved the way you restore old locos
Great little engine... I've got one that I got for my birthday (too many) years ago... very dated by modern standards, but still a fantastic little loco.
Great vid Sam!
I always look forward to Salvage or Scrap. Perhaps, if you are keen you could make a vid called Best of Salvage or Scrap 2022? I am sure that many of your followers would like to see that vid and are looking forward Salvage or Scrap 2023.
I am going to locate my Hornby Christmas trainset (with teddy bear in the parcels) to put around the bottom of our tree.
Regards, Jas.

nice vid of you fix old train up thanks lee
It can’t end now! This series was always the beat lol
I loved what stuff is done on this channel. I hope one day Bachmann or Hornby makes the “Lady” engine. I love the movie and I wish I could make it myself. I am hopeful
Congratulations! Well Done! Todays word is "wiggle". The 3d printer needs to get a wiggle on. No pun intended? LOL
A Very Well Constructed Season This Was! who knows if things will get harder for sam in season 3?
Hey Sam you did great job get tank engine working again
Brilliant again, keep the amazing work coming 😁😁
From watching this series and SMTmainline 's videos... the thing I've learned is... if an engine isn't working, it's probably a dirty commutator
The Pannier Tank was so excited to be working again it literally made a bunch of sparks when Sam tested the model on the rolling road again lol
Quality programming, quality presentation and quality workmanship … the future is bright for you mate 👍🏾
First thing you do, 3D print new couplings...
I made my own 3D printable coupling design too, but they're not exactly great. I'd probably just use two X8031 spares.
If you have fluff in your model train wheels I recommend using tweezers to pull the fluff out and if the motor is corroded buy a new one or use vinegar to clean it
Nice work Sam!
I bought one from an auction that was seized or at least wouldn't move at all. However I felt that the engine was receivng power (slight vibration) so I oiled it and pushed it forward then it worked perfectly. Al done in 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Nice work! I also got one of these! :D
Hey there Sam, isn't it great to restore an old classis? Although new locos have never looked better, sometimes though, they are very highly strung, you can't beat the robust simplicity of an older loco. Regards Terry.
Great video. I didn’t know you could charge a magnet.
Sam, please can you find it in your heart to do a third season of Salvage or Scrap. This is such a fun series. It would be wonderful to see you competing against others, if so possible. You could also try to save some O scale as well, if you wanted to spice it up.
That is so awesome sam!
Great to see these old Tri-ang locos running well again. Just wondering if you've ever considered 3D printing a motor cradle for the old X03/X04 type chassis so you could fit a more modern, motor into them. New finer scale wheels and added pick ups might be good. It would be interesting to see the difference between two, outwardly, similar locos, but one has a more modern mechanism.
I'm thinking Turbo!
i really hope there will be a 3rd season. apparently im getting a dublo 8f for Xmas!
Hopefully Sam If we win this locomotive it will go to a good home and it will be loved by us Sam don't worry :)
Cheers Jasper & Willow
it's insane what people bid for these SOS items... is it just because it featured on a youtube video? love the vids sam, you must make a killing from these SOS items!
Love this sam series 3 please 😁👍
Hey Sam I was wondering what kinda magnet recharging machine you got because after watching this series I've started rebuilding my locos and fixing them up. It would really help out with getting that worked on knowing which would be best to buy
This video is funny. I love the editing
The magnetiser where did you get it from and are they available
I love GWR pannier tanks there like my favourite GWR train
Beautiful shade of green
End of season cliffhanger plot-twist: Sam is just the scrap-man's day-time alter-ego.
This is gonna be epic
what did u do to fix the magnet?
What oil do you use on the axles please?
aaaah, a hot coffee and a great video.
you should do a salvage or scrap rolling stock series
i just bought that exact model the other day
Well that was certainly a interesting episode, would it have been easier to replace the motor with a new one or would it have taken too much time?
Yes season 3!
Can i ask if you print your parts at .01 ? And what size nozzle?
Have you ever thought of making an OO scale scrapman figure, or an O gauge one? Even just the head to put in a bush next to the track?
