1/3 scale Darjeeling Himalayan Railway B-Class Steam Locomotive in 7.25" gauge

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ก.ค. 2012
- This beautiful locomotive was built by John Heald of Rotorua, New Zealand. In this video we take the B-Class out for a typical day at the track, including a sequence of loading the engine onto a custom made trailer towed behind a Honda Jazz (Fit) with CVT. Then it's off to the beautiful River Edge Park Railway in Whakatane, New Zealand. We also take a look at stability of this remarkable locomotive under high speeds using on board cameras. Special adjustable Danly coil springs prevent the locomotive from porpoising; the leaf springs are dummy and just for show. Plans and castings will be made available for this locomotive, if you are interested check out our website at www.sonadaworks.com.

The video was taken on the Whakatane model engineers track on the north cost of the north island of New Zealand. This was the engines third outing from new. All up weight, including fuel is 750kg's, thus axle loading of 375kg's. John Heald, builder.
Beautiful engine, John!
I literally used to watch this as a little kid around 8, 9 or 10 years old🥺🥺
I show this video to my two year old often. He’ll get to go on a train a couple months from now. I hope he remembers it fondly, as you have!
As a mother, thank you for sharing ❤

I did when I was like 3 or 4.
What a beautiful locomotive, good work John!
Having had the privilege of driving the loco, it is awesome. The power is instant. It takes no notice of the number of loaded ridecars. With vacuum braked ridecars, you have total control with a consist over 2 tonnes on a 1 in 60 descent. I was able to double the speed in less than 4 lengths on a 1 in 60 climb. The engine is great fun on a climb at slow speed as the exhaust note is music as you listen to each beat. John is a very innovative engineer. His engines are extremely well built.

Absolutely beautiful. The 1/3 scale gives plenty of space for extreme fidelity. Lovely steam park, too.

@@vijaykumarsharma8755 Sorry to burst your bubble, but they were actually designed in Britain, with the vast majority also being built there, only three being manufactured in India: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHR_B_Class
Really cool, I wish we had those here in New England.
beautifully built. kudos. the actual darjeeling toy train is a real treat for tourists of darjeeling.

Beautifull model and a really recognizable design that of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway. I admire the skill put into making this model.

That is a beautiful engine you have there. Never seen many of the Darjeeling engines in 7.5"/7.25" gauge.

7:38 is that another train I'm hearing?
Beautiful!

The saddle tank holds 36 litres and well tank 37. This usually gives between 1 and 2 hours running depending on load and track grade. Coal bunker holds a 50kg bag of coal and will easily give an 8 hour run.
How much did it take you to build it. Also, do you make commissions, or atleast a parts list and instructions?
awesome looking engine
I remember when I was like 4 to 6 years old, and I actually was addicted to this video (I watched it like 200 times)
I didn’t understand the English language back then, but I watched it 200 times so I didn’t really care I guess 😆
I saw the video today again and all my memories were coming up again. Thanks for showing me this, now I see it back, it’s also more interesting now because I know the english language now. Thanks for sharing this with TH-cam, bye!
I Remember Watching this ALOT When I was Little! This and your Flintridge and Portola Valley Videos Is Also Was a Big Piece of what Got Me to Railfanning, Thanks for The Good Memories!

Beautiful loco, that's thousands of hours of work and outstanding craftsmanship well done. Great shots of the motion nicely shot video. My Dad rode on number 19 when it was still in service while he did his national service back in the fifties, and last year me and my brother had the opportunity to ride behind the same loco now owned by Mr Adrian Shooter at the Beeches railway, they are outstanding little locos.

Its amazing how small you can make a steam locomotive
That's big for a small loco, believe it or not! Below that there's 5" gauge, 3.5", 2.5" and a few below that too.
Narrow gauge locos end up looking huge compared to standard gauge locos of the same model gauge, and broad gauge locos look small for the same reason.

Superb !
Really good videos
Really nice I only wish I could smell the mix steam and oil !
I'm from Darjeeling and am a teacher currently based in Kathmandu, Nepal. Darjeeling toy train is something Darjeeling folks hold close to our hearts and would probably can't bear to live without. John Heald has done an amazing job; I bow down to him. Unfortunately, though it has been declared a world heritage, the Indian government has channelled very little resources, financial, or otherwise to preserve this tourist draw and an iconic monument. I have even heard that the workshop in Tindharia - a two hour drive from Darjeeling town -is being converted into a museum. Somebody HELP !!
OO a fellow Darjeelingey.. Great to hear you!

Fantastic!
This is a good idea for a public transport system.
coś wspaniałego, pozazdrościć trasy kunsztu wykonania oraz poświęcenia w pracy. Moje najniższe ukłony . (PL)

Que legal gostei, o meu pai era maquinista, quando eu vejo máquina igual a essa , eu me lembro dele, nota 10 para todos.
