Sole Slip examines H class No 263; one of 66 such engines built for the South Eastern & Chatham Railway between 1904-15.
This is an original documentary produced by me and my friends, starring my creations and myself. I required no permission to film on any of the premises featured in this production.

Bluebell is the perfect home for all preserved SECR engines
or just southern/oddities stock ijn general
Didn't the O1's come first though?
I rode behind this locomotive, and I totally agree about that cab, the wood trim inside is excellent!
I really like your closeup shots of this loco, there's so much incredible painted detail that's best appreciated up close.
It's not wood. It's scumbled paint. Looks like wood grain but its all steel
@@highdownmartin Oh, it is? My mistake - When I got a look around the footplate, I assumed it was just thin woodwork. Was that a typical SECR thing?
Id say it's more of a period decorative technique than something the Chatham did to its engine cabs. It's the only antique engine at the bluebell to have that applied and your certainly not the only person to have seen it as wood. Lots of coaches there have it applied, over wood, but it can make plain boring panels look like varnished raw wood teak or oak or pine or whatever you want check out TH-cam for scumbling tutorials. Quite interesting glad you enjoyed your visit. I'm a fireman there. Been on the H many times
Here's a 360 of the cab I shot 3 years ago - www.360cities.net/image/cab-interior-of-h-class-n-263.
Is it mahogany?
I hope theres a Captain Baxter video next, definitely one of my favorite locos
When you have a proven design like the H class, was there ever really a need for the K class?
No, but the Rivers metamorphosed into lovely U Boats....
That’s just the way Railways work with locomotives I’m afraid: no sooner has something come out it is replaced with something new
This was one of the two engines running on my visit to the Bluebell a few years ago. (847 the was the other.) :)
I would have ridden behind this engine on the East Grinstead (High Level) service to and from Three Bridges. There was quite a good service on this line in 1964, half hourly I think, and it was shared between the H class push-pull service and standard DEMUs. We used to wait for the steam service if a DMU came in, as the steamer would be next, and we enjoyed riding behind a steam train. I used to use my pocket money to ride these trains with friends from school, favourite trips were to Three Bridges and Rowfant, and Hartfield in the other direction.- the fares must have been pretty cheap then.
Since the Bluebell now connects to East Grinstead, perhaps it's a little more of a home for this beautiful tank engine. But at the same time, with 4 other SECR engines at the railway and a fifth being built, it wouldn't be right for it to move elsewhere. Great video!
It all that Per-Southern Loco,Wagons and Equipment, The Bulebell Railway is in there back yard
I saw this engine when I was at the Bluebell Railway in August 2018.
Hs in Scotland?
Looks like someone found an excuse to run them on their Scottish layout
It does indeed belong there. It is a lovely tank engine.
So I'm just throwing this one out here
Is it possible to see an edition of S.L.I.P.S about the SECR P class?
epic
Beautiful engine! Great video!
Yes just yes
Are gonna do a Sole SLIP on the Stroudley E1?
The Bluebell Railway has had four tank engines who hailed from the SECR. 263 is not one of those that Stepney mentions in his Railway Series appearance.
Diesel Locos in Profile.. *Cough* question mark?
EG did try one that has been taken down: DEATH; but it doesn't have the same potential as SLIP. Still, I'd be interested in seeing something like that.
Years built:1904-1915
The O1 has an Hclass boiler not the other way around :)
The point remains the same. They share the same boiler. End of
Can you do a SOLE SLIP on the sr q class at the bluebell railway?
Do you think you can do an episode of sole slip on the GSR K2?
Hi Chris do you have any plans to make any more Sole Slips?
Welcome to the bluebell
Will you (eventually) do one of a American steam locomotive like 1225?
1000. must. come. next.
Hi Chris could you do a slip on J94 “Wilbert” at the Dean Forest railway
Hi
My crew and I already made a SLIP on the Austerity saddletanks on SLIPs Volume Four. It's available via the online shop linked in the description.
Is that all??? Disappointed it was such a short video for such an interesting engine.
Haych class?
Metaphors I can do without: Comparing steam locomotives to animals ( especially dogs ).
This makes me wish this was Thomas's basis.
Pleasepleasepleaseplease do a 2857 sole slip
Way ahead of you, buddy. As it happens, 2857 features on SLIPs Volume Two in the 2800s film
