    Great video Graeme, and obviously a lot of work has been done on the permanent way and clearing the bush land. It’s a real credit to those guys who have worked so hard restoring historical locos, and obviously take pride in what they’ve done. Have to say that Wauchope’s my favourite!

    I have some work to do on my 45mm trackage in the back yard ! I was going to comment that DCC has come a long way...but I don't know if anyone will get that...

    I like Wauchope. It’s the same class of Locomotive as Fiji (No.11 on the Statfold Barn Railway).
    Also, Wauchope looks almost exactly what my Thomas & Friends OC Blake would look like.
    Also, it’s funny how Fairymeade, a Clearly American Built Locomotive, has a more British style Whistle, while Wauchope, a Clearly British Built Locomotive, has a more American style Whistle. This type of comparison can only happen Down Under in Australia.

    • @alistairwhite2906
      @alistairwhite2906 8 месяцев назад +4

      It's the 5 chime (guessing NSWGR) whistle on Wauchope that makes it sound American, but in NSW and Vic, that was the main whistle used on mainline steam locos.

  • @xot80
    @xot80 8 месяцев назад

    very nice replicas, and if they are originals, they were after very unprofessional renovation. The thing that immediately catches your eye is the welding of boilers. According to art they should be riveted, but I suspect that no one in Australia can make a riveted boiler with the necessary certificates. I recommend a company from Poland, Interlok from Piła. This is the last company in Europe that performs major renovations and new boilers using riveted technology with certificates. They renovate the best locomotives in Europe.

    • @BelbinVideo
      @BelbinVideo  8 месяцев назад +2

      You, clearly, have no idea what you are talking about. All locomotives are originals, as shown by reference to builders numbers and dates of construction, and all boilers are rivetted.
      The three locomotives have current certification.
      I'd love to know how the non existent welding (beneath the cladding), "immediately catches your eye".
      You may want to give your next comment a bit more thought.

    • @MrFishingbros
      @MrFishingbros 8 месяцев назад +2
