"I wanted an Atlantic, and that respectable gentleman gave me exactly that! Now can someone get this gas mask off me? I've had it stuck on my face since the Great War, and all I can eat with it are milkshakes!"
Simple answer to the head cannon loophole. Henry starts as a boot leg Small boiler C2 with more problems than usual because of the lack of quality during manufacturing. This causes him to rely on Welsh coal. After the kipper crash he's sent to Doncaster instead of crew and upgraded to a much better quality Large boiler C1. This also makes scone because in awdry's drawing his boiler is rather slim.
I personally don’t like adding to many AU characters because it just becomes a convoluted web of characters, projects and everything else. Buuuut if engineered into the story well and limiting the number of AU characters, it can be pretty cool! I would love to see a j50 or a c1 on sodor
Dude I really respect how you call Henry your rarest and most favorite train to collect. And I say this outta the fact that Henry is my favorite engine of all time😎
If I remember correctly, Christopher Awdry wrote that, in universe, Sir Topham Hat had ordered Henry as a GCR 8B. As for Wilbert Awdry, though his early illustrations definitely show that he originally conceived Henry as an Atlantic, there are no sources for if he had a _specific_ locomotive class in mind. Looking at Awdry's drawings of Henry (plus Edward & Gordon also) they seem fairly generic, not really matching any specific class, so I don't think that he did. Looking forward a bit, Gordon didn't really become an A1 Pacific until Payne's illustrations, & Edward wasn't really a Furness K2 until the TIoS book. If the illustrators hadn't messed up drawing Henry, then it probably would've been the same, with Wilbert Awdry settling on a specific class of Atlantic for Henry later on. And who knows, maybe Awdry _would have_ made Henry a C1, or an 8B, or something else. We can only guess.
I feel like if Henry did remain a C1 Atlantic, he would have a few issues, but not to the point of special coal or a rebuild (though, he probably would get the same slide valve to piston valve upgrade the other C1s got) And I don't know why, but I feel like awdry's spirit is happy about us recognising his idea for Henry better than the RWS illustrators

What with WildNorWester's own Atlantic (a GNR C1 named Alice), I can definitely agree that the GNR C1 Atlantics are very beautiful, and I'm lucky to own a Bachmann model myself.
C1 Atlantic is truly a beautiful engine in terms of bases the C1 Atlantic would be better for old shape Henry but story-wise Henry wouldn't be well Henry as we know him today
Given the downsized boiler of the C2, I think it's entirely possible that Henry could be a prototype that's essentially a C2 with a lengthened boiler and frame to accommodate a third driver set. The extra boiler space without a properly enlarged firebox could very easily cause his steaming problems.
Gotta love a good C1 Atlantic! I snagged one of these in the GNR livery for myself earlier this year and it is definitely one of my most treasured models.
Now this I can believe it being your favorite! So far no one produces a GCR Class 8B in OO, so a GNR C1 Larger Boiler is the perfect Awdry style Henry! The fact that the designer for the C1s was named Henry almost seems like writing on the wall! And let's be a opened minded here: 98462 doesn't always have to be a Holden S69/B12...he can be a 4-4-2.
I saw your Tweet and thought you just ripped the door of, I didn’t know it was removable and can be put back on. I have wanted one of these for a long time.
My great grandad drove No. 990 Henry Oakley in service a good number of times, I still have his handmade tin lunchbox with his name stamped in the top from the footplate, it still has coal dust in it!
@@Sodorboy98 oh yeah, I’m American as well, but UK engines definitely have a spot for me. However, my Thomas trains mostly satisfy my UK cravings when they happen. I like both, but if I had to pick one or the other, USA steam wins every time.
All you have to do is pretend that this locomotive was brought to america for a railtour like flying scotsman did. On your layout anything is possible!
there were no companies in UK to EVER have a locomotive poliecy only american and south african railway companies can say they had a large loco poliecy because the LNER had one articulate ONE south Afircan railways had HUNDREDS
The Midland Railway had a small engine policy. It gave rise to the derogatory rhyme: 'M is for Midland with engines galore, 2 on the front & still desperate for more!'
Unfortunately not, that’s one of the biggest blows that the model has. 😭 It’s honestly that and how expensive it is that keep me from giving it a full 10/10!
id rate it a 9/10 by how amazing it looks i actually think it looks better than tv series henry however i still love that version as well mainly cuz i grew up with that version of henry
I think henry is a GNR A1 prototype but with a smaller firebox. You see it took three years to build him so he arrive on sodor the same year he was finished.
Looking at Sam’s review, apparently this model has the same amount of pulling power as the Bachmann Henry, which is really interesting considering Henry was originally meant to be an Atlantic loco.
Even though the C1 Atlantic is truly fascinating, I dont like Herny as a Atlantic to be honest with you. I truly prefer Henry as a Black 5 which fits him perfectly.
something that really bothers me is the fact that the wheels are closer to the centre and you dont see much movement in the siderods but i can see why they've done that, it makes it go faster (im assuming)
A marvelous Atlantic. I may be biased on the Southerns by saying that I believe the H1 is the better Atlantic (in my opinion, of course), but I would not be lying in saying that Henry Oakley is a beautiful locomotive, too.
Also, when typing this, I just realized how perfect Henry being a C1 is because of the name of one of the only ones preserved, “HENRY Oakley”. Coincidence?! Yeah, definitely. However the other preserved C1 looks more like the drawing, though.
I have seen a video someone did 3D print the Atlantic it looks cool in small custom scale but on shapeways pricy and getting a good quality 3D print can have issues
I'm so perplexed by the face. In most of the still shots it looks really lop-sided/swollen, but then in the moving video it looks absolutely fine. Beautiful train regardless.
Hi trainboy will you do a video of the (bachmann) (POLAR EXPRESS 1225 or the PERE MARQUETTE 1225 The (2-8-4) (BERKSHIRE) Locomotive) if you could do a video showcase of the (bachmann) POLAR EXPRESS 1225 / PERE MARQUETTE 1225 for the video and of course it those have a big story about THE PERE MARQUETTE 1225 if you could showcase it for the video.

Lord sakes, Donnie! It's Awdry accurate Henry!
Awdry would probably approve
Definitely a buy I wanna do. They’re beautiful and I hear they run nicely. One day. Also I’ll third it as a face if no one has already
As always you have done it again with your awesome weathering and real life accurate models by the way great new profile it awesome just like you.
This is a model I really like it's so beautiful
Henry the C1 Atlantic
Awdry will be pleased
Thanks for the idea now i need to make a wooden railway one
Finally there is another who can tell everyone of the design qualms Henry has faced
My favorite Thomas TH-camr does it again. Great review of a great model. 👍
Atlantic Henry has joined the battle
This engine is definitely on my list!
I mostly model USA steam, so she might stick out a bit though….
I model UK specifically, even though I am American.
I just love British engines more.

Maybe one day, a group of rws enthusiasts will make “The Classic Railway Series” which took notes from the Reverend’s manuscript.
I'm interested in doing it.
Awesome video
Holding it's own against an A3, now that's impressive.
Henry and Gordon be beefing even in real life
Just yesterday I was thinking about this exact thing 😂
I WANTED A BLACK 5, AND THAT _ _ _ SENT ME THAT!!!
Beautiful model!
YES HE POSTED AGAIN
Great model
And that $@&? sent me that! The c1 is a beauty tho, good model
Love ya big G
Love you big homie 🙏🔥
Loved the video and love the modle
I like to imagine that Henry is always mad because he has to pull heavy goods trains, not exactly what the C1 was built for.
Wasn't this engine used for the OC Alice? Or am I thinking of a different engine?
Very nice
Thank you 😊

C1 Henry? Easy, same thing except without his steaming problems and he's not rebuilt into a black 5. Flying Kipper can stay I just think it's neat
I seen her in Doncaster
so basically the C1 Atlantic is the 6.0 powerstroke of the railway😂
