    Calbourne is a lucky tank engine to survive and was never meant to be the only Adams O2 left. Today W24 is the mascot of the Isle of Wight Steam Railway and has even ventured back to the mainland. The railway recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of "The Big Move", where Calbourne was tasked with hauling their entire collection to their new headquarters before the scrap merchants came in to say otherwise!
    Thank you to Alco and Swanage George for their assistance.

    The Adams T3 is literally just a Radial Tank engine with a tender where the bunker and trailing axle would've been.

    I love these types of videos. A perfect casual watch for someone like me who’d love to learn more about these real railways and their stories.

    I got to see 2 of my favorite engines in this.
    No. 1 the 812 class
    No. 2 the Ivatt class 2

    Wow! :O What a brilliant episode to this all-new documentary series. "Calbourne and the Big Move" certainly something that would inspired the Reverend Wilbert Awdry's Railway Series. :)

      Thanks mate! :D I'll definitely be there for the Awdry gala but hoping to be up there sooner as well. Would be good to see you again.

    I had no idea about the story. Great job with your presentation.

    That’s the wonderful thing about steam engines and preservation. Wildlife painters, publishers, oil rig workers, London bankers, so many different kinds of people, all sharing their love of history and historic technology. As much as I love cars and video games, I don’t think I’ve ever heard such amazing stories about people coming together to save a railway. If Calbourne had a personality, they’d be one hell of a worker.

    I just can’t wait for the next very steam engine on the steam railway in its early years bc it’s my favourite Invincible

    I agree with the Lego T3, the resemblance is uncanny to me!

    Whilst I'm more of a fan to the workings of Drummond, I find plenty of Adams designs quite genius and punctual and Calbourne sure is one of those examples alongside 488 and Normandy

  • @VincentBrigance
    @VincentBrigance 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    William Adams designed the Adams Axle, not the Radial Axle(That was designed by William Bridges Adams), and used the radial axle on his engines. It's all a bit confusing

    Do you happen to know when exactly Chale was scrapped? Withdrawal dates obviously say 1967, and you mention it still being around in '69. Was it scrapped sometime during the latter year?

    Hypothetical scenario:
    You´re a railway lover and a business owner in the 1960s. You´ve always loved trains and have longed to own your own railway and locomotives.
    Now thanks to the modernization plan of the 50s and 60s, there is now plenty of spare track for you to build your dream upon. But where do you do it? And what locomotives and rolling stock (that is still around) do you preserve?
