  • @TheHoveHeretic
    @TheHoveHeretic 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Looks like a fantastic event. Congratulations folks. Query: The gauge of the RLR is always given as 12" dead, yet visiting LMR loco is from a line always described as 12¼" gauge and which has hosted FMR locos, also 12¼" gauge. Has the RLR gauge been quietly slackened a tad, or are dimensions sufficiently tolerant to allow inter-operation?

  • @TheHoveHeretic
    @TheHoveHeretic 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Lovely clip. Haven't had the chance to visit in 50 years, but I remember the 15in gauge line at Fairbourne and the current line looks great wending it's way across Penrhyn Point. I'm curious (but quite delighted) to see RLR No.6 on tour, as the gauge at Fairbourne - and Littlehampton for that matter - is 12¼in, whilst Mad Bess's stamping ground at Ruislip is still listed as being 12in. Query: Has there been some clever jiggery-pokery with wheel profiles to permit very welcome outings ... or is there a secret set of broad gauge wheels fitted for away matches?

    • @RuislipLidoRailway
      @RuislipLidoRailway 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@TheHoveHeretic There’s no jiggery-pokery here I’m afraid. Although Mad Bess is 12” gauge the we have quite wide wheel treads meaning that the slightly wider gauge at Fairbourne isn’t a problem and even our curves back home at Ruislip are 12 1/4” to ease flange wear. When it comes to the other way around (we’ve had Sherpa from Fairbourne visit for our summer gala) the crucial thing is the back to back wheel measurement which happily is compatible with our track standards so we can have 12 1/4” gauge locos running on our 12” track.

      @RuislipLidoRailway 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      She pulls the same in either direction but the reason she was working as she was that day was because for operational reasons she couldn’t run round her train each time. It was thought better to have the driver facing the wagons when propelling them so he could see the hand signals from the operative tipping the wagons as they were being unloaded and easily spot if anything went wrong while travelling to/from the worksite. This just so happened to be in the direction of the empty train going back to be loaded.

    20:00 As much as I don't want to be "some jerk on the internet who thinks he knows best", I'm somewhat concerned by what I see here and feel I need to bring it up. Admitting trains into a passing loop from both ends at once has the risk that in the event of driver error, brake failure or similar, one train will collide into the side of the other, almost certainly causing a derailment (and potentially striking a passenger carriage from a direction that offers little protection to the occupants). The normal practice I have seen on other UK railways is to hold one train outside the loop and only admit it once the first is fully stationary. In the event of an emergency, this then gives slightly longer for the train to stop (hopefully avoiding harm entirely) and, should a collision occur anyway, ensures there is less kinetic energy involved (as only one train is moving).

      @RuislipLidoRailway 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The method adopted here is fully approved for our operations and risk assessed, run off distance is provided for a train which is only going at 5mph. Appreciate the feedback on the BR days, but thankfully we aren't living in those days or indeed a BR railway. Safety is a balance of risk (likelihood and severity) with mitigations to provide a latent risk profile. You can't compare our railway at a maximum speed of 8mph with processes and procedures adopted for railways which run at 125mph...
