There is something about the sounds and watching these huge machines in operation that just leaves me speechless. Such power on show. Awesome stuff to watch, loved every minute of this. Clint
I am a big fan of steam. Amazing. I so enjoyed your tour of the ship. Nothing better then to hear the clanging of the Telegraph bell's. I would feel sailing with the men in charge of the ship! I thank you for a exciting tour of a well operated ship!
Old Number Ten hopper in Dublin Port was only a single engine, but Ronnie McCarthy, the skipper used to think it was a motor boat; you'd barely have got full astern going when "jangle jangle....full ahead. We used to watch the shadows from the skylight to see how fast we were turning....then a deckhand would shout down " Hold on". Then would come the thump and sound of splintering piling, followed by full ahead.....fun times.
The vessels I served on were 1750 -2,200 horsepower triple expansion engines ....the higher horsepower had 2 intermediate stage cylinders....make a total of 4 cylinders
I'm trying to figure out the ship telegram. I know the engine room can see what the bridge wants by the placement of the needle and vice versa and that the bells get the attention of the crew. But is there a procedure or meaning to moving it back and forth before resting on the chosen output or is that just to grab attention?
The point of moving the engine order telegraph further than the required setting is to make the bell ring several times, instead of only once when going from, lets say slow astern to half astern. However, many people working on steam ships today have a "nasty" habit of ringing the telegraph by going to full ahead or astern, before going to for example slow astern. This was never a recommended practice in earlier times. The risk is that the chain for the engine order telegraph could seize up on full astern or ahead, and the engine room would have no way of understanding that this was not the desired setting. The recommended practice at, amongst others White Star Line, was therefore to ring back and forth in the standby-stop-finished with engines area, before proceeding to the desired setting.
I’m inquisitive about the telegraphs being ‘handed’. If an operator changed from one engine to the other was there a short time of confusion in the mind about which direction was being asked? I know its a left/right thing in us but I’ve seen this create problems elsewhere.
👈Well this side listen because the engine room replied to slow ahead and the bridge went on slow ahead or maybe the same thing I don't know I'm just confused

Steam engines have a lot of soul and character.

Lot of white hair in that engine room. My confidence level is at 100%

I notice few strands of white hair stuck to the conn rods 11:10. I guess not the conn rods but maybe a walking beam
It’s not white, it’s platinum.
This video was published on my birthday!!! The people in the engine room, Good Work!
I love the sounds the telegraphs make
I would love to take a trip on this beautiful ship

Amazing footage - could be a great setting for a film!
Death ship is a good watch

FULL ASTERN!!!
This is SOMETHING! Nice video, nice channel, nice moments!
Congrats!🙏👏🤛🤛🤛
8:23 great shot of the humble rudder control. Without this small machine, all the rest of all the other machines is for naught.
!!! Very nice video, likes from me !!!
The Waverley paddle steamer is hard to beat.
I often think of the brains of the people who designed those engines !
This is active duty a steamship, enjoy voyage!
Sehr gut!
Superb video

It's he engine drivers acknowledging the bridge's orders, as it moves a needle on the Bridge's telegraph.

Wait a minute Where's dead slow
