Footage of the locomotive production line at Ipswich workshops. Film shows the production process from the drawing boards to the completed locomotive. Also contains interesting shots of: the old drawing office (now Rollingstock Office), laboratory, schedule office, patternmakers, foundry blacksmith, boiler shop, test pit, machine shop, and Westinghouse brake.
That was interesting and more so because it showed something of our own steam engine design and building. I saw a comment about lack of PPE and thought to myself, these men were men. No safety googles, hard hats, gloves and safety vests and yet they still accomplished their tasks. Aussie workers in their singlets - great.
because of their work ethic noone was ever injured and the unions fought to reject any form of protection so their manhood would not be questioned.
nothing but common sense, and having your wits about you though for a good chunk of time they were pragmatic at least as engine crew as they would have glasses or goggles to keep the dirt out of their eyes, and if they were looking into a blast furnace they would have the dark lenses or goggles, and long sleave shirts to keep the hot materials from burning them as much, or they would stuff cotton in their ears if they were boilermakers running a hammer to rivet or calk flues or run stay bolts over on the ends, but its not like it is today, I do kind of like the more deliberate and detailed pace of this documentry and the pacing of the narrator, usually there is more fast paced and hype in the voice of the narrator in uk or us railroad documentrys or how things were done back in the day, its a nice change, and shows the depth of detail better not just 2 second clips but an actual length of operation, and specificly what the tools were used for, like the wheel lathes not just that its a lathe but that it was used to turn wheels and tires for the wheels.
Back in the day when things were made properly and beautifully . Brilliant engineers with failey basic tools . RAH
We are still using the hammer & butt welder at the Workshops
Wonderful film ,many thanks
1920s? You're off by two decades!
We could once make anything in this great country with its great people. I feel our recent (40 years) short sighted Politians are the problem.
Sounds like Richie Benauds dad commentating. Great footage!
Cool :D I love these 20th century workshop videos with commentator :P
We don't do anything here anymore, sad state of affairs:(
This should lift your spirits: statements.qld.gov.au/statements/91668
Assistant Minister for Regional Roads and Train Manufacturing Bruce Saunders welcomed the new members and said their input would be crucial in delivering the Palaszczuk Government’s commitment to build the next generation of trains in Maryborough.
thanks very much. yes regrettably most of our manufacturing has gone offshore and we now import everything as some say was a result of Australia entering into the U.N Lima Declaration 1975 . most people haven't even heard of it.
All part of the world trade system,after 1976 ,the governments since then are responsible for this Bull shit ,this is part of the reason why a lot of young people can't get a job ,All sent off Shaw ,china in particular ,and the rest is history????
DID ANYONE ELSE SEE THE GUY WEARING SHORTS @ 6:55?
why is that odd
@@theonlysenate5672 Wow, I don't know how that changed. What I had written was "did anyone else notice the guy riding shotgun not wearing his seatbelt?"
Yes indeed ... makes a longer command appearance at ~7:13 and a bit part later again at ~7:30 -- or rather, his lower body goes!
No software !
When an engineer was a true engineer...
Yep. The good ol' days of great machines
Yep. The good ol' days of great machines, from a bunch of piece of paper, to a huge working beautiful machines
Reading some of these comments makes me feel so intelligent 🤣👍
@@adriankingston4338 Too much for you rude sissy boy?
@@trackdusty no far too little including your intellectual waffle !
When Britain was capable.
Not an ounce of fat among them
No such thing such as safety glasses worn...! Back when men were men.
And a lot of men had eye injuries, but they were real men, only they had eye injuries:-)
And blind from industrial accidents
Unions fought long and hard for safety equipment
Fairly stupid auto dribble
Idiot.
