- A look at 17 preserved Hunslet Austerity 0-6-0ST in action for 2006 to 2020 across the UK. The action includes Norman, Wimblebury & Whiston climbing Foxfield bank, converted 2890 Douglas on the East Lancs, Cumbria and Repulse on the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway, No. 49 in action at Tranfield & the NRM, the Mech Navvies tank at Keighley and 72 & Lord Phil at Peak Rail.
Number 49 is incorrectly labeled as a Hunslet Works Number 5062, it was actually built by Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns Works number 7098 (War Department number 75062, which is where I got 5062 from).

Easily the best short-haul steamer ever made. As evidenced by the fact that many companies were still demanding new ones up into the mid 1960's, when there had been plenty of good diesel options available (including from Hunslet themselves) for 15 years - and still many in use into the 1980s. Forgiving to fire, easy to drive, mostly quite easy to maintain, little to go wrong and fantastic pulling power for an engine of its compact size.
Hunslet really knew what they were doing with this product!
Man!! The sounds these make something else! Number 49 really is a smart looking engine too. Love it!! :-)
3839 sounds awesome
Me in the front window at 31:00!
Very nice done :)
Top of my if i won the lottery shopping list.
Nice video👍, except no.49 is a Robert Stephenson and hawthorns austerity.
Thanks, will update my notes and add a note in description. Also I had the works number down as wrong (I had its WD number down as its works number)
Nice parade of saddles there :)
Almost all saddles😉

Wimblebury sounds decidedly off beat.
What about hunslet austerity Jessie
Jessie is a hunslet 16 inch tank i think.
Did I spy an S160 at 6:15?
Yes you did when whiston went for a visit at a railway close to her home in Staffordshire. The s160 is owned by the Churnet Vally railway. They currently have 1 in operation and 2 under overhaul
