I wish so badly that we did this in the U.S. these engines look so serious on the main line.. they have the dignity of going fast as they're meant to. That doesn't happen here.
At this point, all of our operable steamers are just getting old. The faster you run them, the more wear, the soon they have to go in for a full overall.. and $$$$ for that isn’t guaranteed. Even in the UK, Tornado is the only engine to my knowledge that can really do mainline running. It’s not just the cost of insurance for someone who might get hurt, it’s the cost of insuring basically the irreplaceable. I hope that the Pennsy T-1 they are building will be allowed to run at line speed at least, but honestly I fear she too will be relegated to 45mph. 😭😭
@@Penryn87 Tornado is not the only locomotive that can "really do mainline running" it's in the same boat as all the other mainline locomotives, which there are many. 35028 'Clan Line' as seen a few times in the video, has run on the mainline since 1974. The big locomotives in the UK can be operated upto 90mph but requires a lot of paperwork and tests. Unofficially, many locomotives have run at that speed.
DOnt agree. The USA J class 611 looks very very dignifiied. Much more so than these, that look like scaled-up HO models. And I'm not even an American :O
@@daitsukishiro1505 American steamers usually weren’t built with elegance in mind, more function over form. It takes quite a bit of brute force to challenge the terrain we have.
I legitimately don't know, so askin lol, why do we not see any Steam engines anymore? I mean even for funsies at this point? I adore the sounds of them. Makes me think of watching Starlight Express when I was little and the fight between steam, electric and diesel engines. Steam always wins :)
When I was a kid, about 9 or 10 maybe, I used to go to a bridge with my pals. A straight one with a sort of metal grid floor. We would stand on it and wait for the express to sweep past at full speed. Incredibly exiting to see these monsters roaring towards you and then pass a few feet beneath you. A blast of noise, smoke, steam, heat, and smell. Incredible memory and sadly one that kids today will never experience.
It's really awesome seeing steam locomotives still being used to this day the British definitely has pushed steam technology over its limits to get up to such speeds
You're seeing steam traction technology at its pinnacle, the highest it ever got. All these locos were withdrawn in the 60's, and many were getting on by then. Most were rebuilt from scrap condition after often years sitting in Barry scrapyard in Wales. As my wallpaper I have 34046 Braunton in very poor condition after being laid up at Barry for 25 or so years. With a click I can bring up Braunton as she is now, if I need cheering up Without Dai Woodham it would have been so very different....
It makes me feel better after having watched a steam engine whizzing and whistling. I have ridden steam engines not quite often during my employment from 1971 to 1975 as a goods train guard in Rawalpindi division of Pakistan. You can not guess the joy of having a warm cup of tea prepared by fireman in winter.
as a child i lived near a train station, and i remember the sound of that trains and lokomotives well. at 03:16 this matches my rememberence best. you could hear the lokomotoves first, with their fast "beat", only later the wheels and cars are audible. i was always fasinated by the sound of the lokomotives....
Same is the case with me. Heavy smoke with cloud like dense steam vapors in the winter emitting from both the leading engines and bankers chugging the goods trains were the common land scape near my Railway quarter in my childhood.
I have grown up around steam and it humbles this 37 year old to see steam engines earning their keep. They are working machines after all. The very intention of their being is being forfilled and that fills me with pride. I still maintain they are alive. They are a living breathing thing and I will never get bored of that.
I'm old enough to remember when steam trains were the only form of motive power in the UK ! This excellent video brought back so many memories - cheers for that. 😎
Bombay Howrah mail used to reach Jabalpur at about 12 noon & it's engine had an unique sound whistle which was so very musical to ears! And soooooo punctual! Thanks for taking to the world of nostalgic memories of childhood.
I will always be amazed and troubled by the view and sound I experienced in my teens when suplying with charcoals the loco engine my father being an engineer in the 60's. Thanks for the opportunity.
Great selection. Some videos of steam locos at speed are not what is claimed, but these all had the hammer down for real. Good stuff. Just booked my first post-lockdown steam trip for July. Can't wait.
A steam train is not supposed to put the hammer down as you call it. These days they provide scenic rail tours in a unique way from a bygone era that isn't so bygone after all!!!!
@Doctor Whos No sir. 1) They need a turnstile to turn around for the return journey, 2) they need water every couple of hundred miles and hence not good for long distance non stop trains, 3) their acceleration to full speed took about 3-5 miles. 4) they spewed a lot of coal dust and smoke, 5) need at least 3 strong men to operate.
It's not about power. Steam locos are actually too powerful for their own good, which you can see by how hard it is to avoid wheelslip when starting from a stop. And ones like these with the large-diameter driver wheels are extremely fast as well. The main reason not to use them is fuel efficiency, only 11% for steam vs 30-35% for diesel. They're also extremely high maintenance and labor intensive, requiring almost a full day to build up steam and requiring lots of water stops along the line as they don't recondense their exhaust steam.
Hearing all the coaches fly by so seamlessly on rail built for high speed is so satisfying. It's wierd hearing it without the clickity clack most would associate with older trains.
I agree it is wonderful to see a powerful steam loco thundering along at full speed like this: the sound, steam and the smell make one nostalgic for an age when travelling by train was wild, romantic and dramatic
I loved this video. Something about British trains that impress me in several ways. Also, it might be because the trips are relatively short and one does not become bored. Additionally, well modulated voices giving information over station loud speakers is quite impressive.

Back in the 1960's the place for steam at speed was Brookwood Surrey. The track is almost straight, no real gradient and platforms only on the slow lines so no speed limit of the fast line. A Merchant Navy class hauling the Atlantic Coast Express at over 100 MPH was a delight for any 14 year old snotty nosed train spotter like me.
There is something mystifying and almost hypnotizing watching a steam train chuffing along. Imagine seeing these things thundering down the tracks on a dark night when these engines were new?.

Steam trains at speed on Main Line is a awasome video presentation.

It's really the team spirit the crew and guard and all the operating staff used to unite and ensure the steam locomotive hauling trains with safety and punctuality. The rythamatic beat of the steam locomotives used to vibrate my heart as and when I used to work at way side stations and passing through the said trains. I worked as a station master as well as station manager with all the there types of locomotives i.e. Stem, Diesel & Electrical If any one question which are the most enjoyable times of working with the above three types of locomotives? I prefer to say that the steam locomotive period is the golden period in which we used to have inbuilt zeal, fitness, enthusiasm,encouragement, well sycncronised team work and used to enjoy the work happily even though it's most strenuous compared to the working of the other two types of locomotives.

The diesel loco doesn’t actualy provide assistance, it is only there in case the steam loco fails and to pull the train out of terminating stations. It would be louder if it was actually working
It amazes me how far Japan has come with the development of their Shinkansen. I rode the original back in 1976. I like that Japan has relied on electrification of their train lines. the US has gone with diesel mostly. Anyways, keep going. Good videos. Thanks.
Terrific , but for the pollution ! I recall riding steam trains in India. Coal particles entering through the windows and falling into the eyes( non-ac trains). But the temptation of looking outside to the horizon, moving with the train was irresistible !
I know those diesels on the back of some of those trains are there "just in case," but it's kind of sad anyway. A great video of elegance and power regardless!
Wonderful Video ! As one of those sad old gits who "play with toy trains" this makes a superb background sound. I could listen to it all day... Thanks for posting it, and the other series 2 & 3. Anton, down in Cornwall.
They're really bouncing up and down on entry to some stations 0:371:29 look terrible! Do trains send accelerometer data to a national database to find 'potholes'?

It is extremely efficient streame locomotive. Love to see its great action. What is the model and how it was built and where???? These are still feasible to use in those countries having million of tons of coal???
There are various types shown, I know that the LMS ones (black 5’s, duchesses, princesses, royal Scot’s, jubilee’s) were all built at Crewe works. The LNER ones were built at Darlington, anything great western was Swindon but idk about southern ones. The BR standards were built at all the works, so it depends on the engine
A fun to watch now. Steam train moving fast under an Eectric overhead traction. When I was a child or youth, I used to stop walking g and watch the train puffing more smoke than steam, in a hot country like India.( steam is not visible due to hot air around).That was the nesmerusm of the old Train whistle!😁😷

I'm moving to England in June/July and I'm excited to start trainspotting like you! [btw I am from south Africa]
Very entertaining, and it's interesting to note that the diesel is noticeably working on several of the clips.
I guess they don't want to wear out the steam locomotive too much. Which is understandable.
The diesel loco doesn’t actualy provide assistance, it is only there in case the steam loco fails and to pull the train out of terminating stations. It would be louder if it was actually working
It's always amazing to me, that as loud as those engines are, once it passes you can no longer hear anything but the rolling cars.
Poetry in motion
What an awesome sight and sound
僕頑張ると言わんばかりに疾走する蒸気機関車が素晴らしい。後ろにヂイーゼルが付いて行くのもかわいい。SLも赤や緑の塗装も美しくて素晴らしい。流石に鉄道の大先輩。今や日本製のアズマが走る時代だけれど立派に整備されて高速で走り去るイギリス🇬🇧のSLと鉄道マンにリスペクト。カッコいいですね。イギリス🇬🇧の栄光の証です。
Oh that’s lovely I love to see the trains whizzing round the corner
Is anyone able to tell me the location of the pub next to the level crossing at 06:19 ? Thank you
भई इसमे रामगढ़ कौन सी ट्रेन जाती है। बसंती से मिलने जाना है।
It amazes me how far Japan has come with the development of their Shinkansen. I rode the original back in 1976. I like that Japan has relied on electrification of their train lines. the US has gone with diesel mostly. Anyways, keep going. Good videos. Thanks.
TECHNOLOGY WAS GIVEN TO THEM BY GERMANY!!!
Some place in Japan still use steam loco
Thank you very much! It' s so pleasure to see a moving piece of America:))
These are all British locomotives.
@@royalbritannium6415 Good observation!.
All British engines mate
Fantastic catches, all of them! Some very bouncy p-way there…
Thanks for sharing
As a 70 y o ex-train driver and my father before , steam = goosebumps .
This steam loco is as good as a bullet train. What is astonishing, no extra locomotive to push from begin.
Impressive, fascinating, beautifull, but it is alarming to see the locomotive bouncing on the uneven track 😲
Love the sound of wagons passing at high speed. Especially at night.
WOW such a wonderful collection of steam hauled tours feels like the 50'6 to the 60's thanks for posting
Terrific , but for the pollution ! I recall riding steam trains in India. Coal particles entering through the windows and falling into the eyes( non-ac trains). But the temptation of looking outside to the horizon, moving with the train was irresistible !
I know those diesels on the back of some of those trains are there "just in case," but it's kind of sad anyway. A great video of elegance and power regardless!
It's mostly not "just in case". I've put the reasons why they're used in the description.
Super video! Greetings from Russia!
for me my favorite run by was 46115 at 2:48 idk i just love the rebuildt royal scots so much and the lighting was perfect around 46115
Simply beautiful.
Very possibly your best video yet!
JIM
That sure exercised the goosebumps!!!
Wonderful Video ! As one of those sad old gits who "play with toy trains" this makes a superb background sound. I could listen to it all day... Thanks for posting it, and the other series 2 & 3. Anton, down in Cornwall.
Stunning speed for a steam engine !
I like the sound of the steam whistles way better than the air horns of today!!!!! Those connecting rods between the wheels are flying, warp speed!!!
🌷🌷🌷The magnificence of difficult files and train quickly a beautiful professional photography
They're really bouncing up and down on entry to some stations 0:37 1:29 look terrible! Do trains send accelerometer data to a national database to find 'potholes'?
Brilliant video well done great camera work as well keep it up bye for now Philip
Liked the train shot at night while passing through stations at full speed.
It reminds me of the Hogwarts express... Absolutely beautiful!
These lovely giants are forever.
I JUST LOVE WATCHING THE HUFFING AND PUFFING!!!!!
Why are some steamers dragging the 65 + ton diesel deadweight at the back and yet others are not?
1. Route have some mountainy gradient
2. Route ends in a terminal station
3. Dynamic brake support
VERY GOOD COLLECTION 👍
Amazing to see them GO!

British steam rules. So fast and graceful.
They are running good and the photo shoots 👍.I enjoyed the video.
What's the Loco at 3:03 ?
Southern railway unrebuilt Battle of Britain class
Absolutely fantastic 😊😊😊😊
It is extremely efficient streame locomotive. Love to see its great action. What is the model and how it was built and where????
These are still feasible to use in those countries having million of tons of coal???
There are various types shown, I know that the LMS ones (black 5’s, duchesses, princesses, royal Scot’s, jubilee’s) were all built at Crewe works. The LNER ones were built at Darlington, anything great western was Swindon but idk about southern ones. The BR standards were built at all the works, so it depends on the engine
Wow that's good. Thanks very much. Never seen the springs on the locos working so much.
Awesome! Great video!
A reason, if one is needed , why we shouldn’t get rid of coal. We can’t afford to get rid of these magnificent examples of British engineering.
Nothing breathes elegance and power like a steam locomotive at speed.
MashaAllah Amazing 👍👍👍👍👍🙏🌹🌹💐🙏
A fun to watch now.
Steam train moving fast under an Eectric overhead traction.
When I was a child or youth, I used to stop walking g and watch the train puffing more smoke than steam, in a hot country like India.( steam is not visible due to hot air around).That was the nesmerusm of the old Train whistle!😁😷
Brilliant piece of film plenty of action and noise. Nice to see Northern based Locos working down South.
I am from the Czech Republic, such machines should ride with us great
Choo choo! I'm a train and I approve this video!!!!
