My first train set, about 1965, was a blue 0-4-0 diesel (clockwork powered!) with one open wagon and a guard's van! By Tri-ang Hornby naturally. Seeing this really took me back.
You know Lawrie, one thing you've done here is prove to a legion of people that the starter train sets we all had/have, have a prototype. And frankly I fail to see the problem with that. As the old saying goes, "There's a prototype for everything."
I've come across vids of Norfolk and Western 611 hauling 1890s woodside coaches tender first and photos of 4449 in her American Freedom Train getup helping the Burlington Northern with a freight run following her restoration, you look hard enough you can find a prototype for any event, and even if you can't only the most obnoxious rivet counters are gonna be mad, and let them
The more I watch of your channel, Lawrie, the more I hate it that I'm stuck on _entirely_ the wrong side of The Pond to come to these events and help out myself as part of it all. It honestly genuinely almost physically hurts.
@@warhamsterful Been there several times. My mother was a lawyer from 2000 through 2007, made pretty decent money, although nothing like the hotshots you see playing legal eagle on the telly. Middle of 2007 she started acting kinda funny, turns out her primary doc misunderstood something from literally a bit over a decade prior, round about 1994 I'm pretty sure, and over the next half year it really started catching up to her. Things... did not go well. She's badly disabled, now, and I've been disabled in my own way for life. We're now both flat broke, and stuck wasting away in this tiny little hick town in the middle of North Carolina. The people here are so backcountry, in that grand old American way (for the humorless: that was _extremely_ sarcastic) that even their thoughts seem to run backwards. There's nothing to do, no jobs, and almost no housing, and there's hardly even anywhere to go anyways. It's _awful_ -- but I can't afford a plane ticket and I don't know how to sail or swim. Believe me, I'd be there if I could, my soul forever pines for a flat in London. Heck, I'd try for citizenship if I could, no joke. But, alas, it's not to be. I can't afford to go on holiday like that (and the politicians would have a field day with me if I did, look up some time what the term "welfare queen" means in this overly weedy cesspool of a country) and it's not like I can get anyone over there to sponsor me in the way I'd have to if I was able to get serious about immigrating. At least there are people like Lawrie and Jago Hazzard and Dale Charman here on TH-cam where I can sit at my computer screen and remember the good times and try not to cry.
The Colne Valley is the first preservation railway we visited when I was stationed at RAF Bentwaters in 1991. Great save on charming little loco and a fitting farewell. Cheers Terry
At least she is running well and it does look like one of the Hornby sets with the 0-4-0 Barclay or Bagnall diesel shunter from the drone view. One modification I would do is put a tool box cabinet in the cab like what we have in ours at Bewdley, which stores useful tools, battery charger and cleaning items.
Glad to have played a (small) part in helping save her from the scrap yard. Though she looks like she's burning a fair bit of oil that even your Italian tune-up didn't fix :(
Very happy to see this run, even if I missed out on it being mine. Very glad the LMM family brought it and it's running and has a home. Also bit proud to of helping abit to save it
Lawrie, I am stunned. Usually you get things that don't run and restore then!!😂 she's beautiful!! Congratulations!!! Many happy years of operation of the LMM Railroad!!!
Just saw DVT 82121 as you shunted past which i worked many times on the Norwich/Liverpool St run , happily both still here & living the easy life in retirement 😂🎉🎉
Awesome Job, Lawrie! Good job on giving this wonderful fella a new home. If, or more likely, “When” the time comes, when Port Talbot Steelworks decide to replace their old Bagnall Shunters from the mid 1950s with the expanded fleet of Clayton Battery Diesel hybrid shunters, why not contact Port Talbot Steelworks about buying one or two of their Bagnall shunters? They are as follows. The Brush Bagnall 0-4-0DE locos, which are numbers 501, its only working one left, plus there’s 506 and 509 which are up for sale, possibly for preservation, or scrap. Cuz they’re small, they may be the cheapest. Plus there’s the larger Brush Bagnall Bo-Bo diesels, numbers 901, 903, 905 and 906, which are all still working to this day, but their days are most likely numbered. They’re probably more pricey cuz they’re bigger, but never say never. If not you, then let’s hope there are railways willing to preserve all these vintage shunters.
It's nice to see these machines being preserved and not scrapped. Also that engine could use some cleaner in the fuel to help the engine and it needs to be ran for a long time to clean up or it could just be old fuel. Have some people in my area that have steam traction engines and older tractors mainly. Nearest steam preservation railway I know of is the Silverton Durango Trains. Hope to see more of the other train soon as an update on what you have found with it.
Congratulations on Becoming a British sugar loco owner . There definitely loud ours registers about 95 dB in the cab . Ear defenders are a good idea if you can't cope . You will have to return to The DVLR to have a play on our British sugar York 165 . Your going to have many happy days with her I can just see it .
Love the sound of buffers "bonking" together... even vehicles with "Not to be moved" signs attached! Very therapeutic. With that safeworkng breach I see you were in for a penny, in for a pound and had a SPAD at 12:50 just to leave the network in style! 😂 Well done. Regards from Oz. Gaz
Oh this little guy is so cute! Hard worker too. When you mentioned it reminded you of a starter train set and showed the drone footage, I couldn't agree more. Great job saving it!
I think you should try and get really good pictures of the Ruston in it's current state, the idea of someone eventually making the Rusty Ruston trainset sounds wonderful and hilarious.
Ooh that sounds good! Lovely footage and video. Eagle eyed viewers will notice a smaller gauge track right alongside the running line! You can enjoy great lineside views from this miniature railway which will be in operation this coming Sunday 21st July for the DMU gala, where you may also see another of these lovely shunters in operation too 😃
I now see potential for Hornby to make a trainset like this, with their own version of the Ruston 165 plus one open wagon and one brakevan. It could be called "Lawrie's Local Goods" or something like that.
Super look forward see at new home when we visit norwich from leeds with caravan. Re mic set up. Binaural only works with over ear type head phones otherwise just stereo. Wind gag essential stop awful roaring. Love this channel. Quiet charm. Well done that man and the hidden support.
Nope, with your binaural opinion, that's a myth, they work incredibly well with neck speakers, and correctly positioned speakers. You should try it with some examples on our channel, even placing headphones under each ear works quite well, especially with perceptions from above.
Brilliant bit of kit there big fella …she may be able to be adjusted on the 2nd /3rd gear change by the 2 control valve cocks atop of the gearbox …good luck and well done .Dai iawn 🎉
Not sure sizewise if doable, but if you can get both this and the 48 on a lorry in one hit, what about organising a return to CVR some time and do something along with Ollies 88? Im sure the railway would absolutely welcome the help with ticket sales ect. You have a decent reach on here so its worth a shot 👍
nice to see the old beast that Lawrie saved perhaps the Ruston is secretly happy that it was saved from going to the scrappers much as id wanted to contribute to it and went able to still support Lawrie's idea to save it as i kind of do that with model buses in good condition if ive spare bits from scrapped ones ill re use the axels to give them another chance to life or if needs be ill move some to new homes to a few friends for a retake to life 0:33 kind of looks as if Lawrie's other loco is looking happy knowing it was saved from scrap just thought of a name idea for it should Lawrie ever decide to name it could call it ''team LMM ''or just name it Lawrie after him self
It would be lovely to see the 165 at the Nene Valley Railway brought out from its hiding place in the tunnel and returned to working order: I prefer it to the two Sentinel shunters they have.
should really start thinking about an lmm livery for this growing fleet also this is amazing to see should really make some kind of plan to get all 3 together at some point even if just for a photo op but i imagine that's a lot harder than it sounds given the logistics of moving locos about
If Hornby did this as a starter set including the patina on the Ruston I would buy it. Come on there is a Beatles set out there, why not a Lawrie set, we can already get a miniature Lawrie for the cab.
Great video Lawrie and what brilliant test run. Have you decided what paint job you will be giving the 165, will it be back to it's original livery? 🤔.
Really pleased that you saved the old girl and I’m really, really pleased to see you getting some sponsorship!! It’s a bit of a wonky product to introduce to your usual customers, I would argue but it’d be a shame to leave that money or equipment in AWI’s pocket :) :) Best of luck with the restoration(?).
@@lmm but unironically from what I've heard. most companies are willing to get rid of them for basically nothing. because due to the use of asbestos in their construction they are uneconomical to scrap. so as long as you can afford to feed it

@@lmm Well cheers to you and his efforts for rail preservation would love to see something one day always enjoy you both and your endless and amazing videos.
Binaural audio, or holophonic, indeed, It is quite an amazing way of hearing things, we all hear this way if we have non-malformed ears and both ears are working correctly, it's the ONLY way to perceive 3D audio that is heard externally to our heads. I'm totally obsessed with it.
You could buy a better phone :O) Seriously though, try it with headphones or ear buds, but not at full volume, as the volume is the perspective control.
Putting "last ever train" in your caption like that can come across as very misleading. I searched for the CVR and your video, as the most recent upload, came up first.

You obviously know your social media and TH-cam quite well, how did you not think that this could come across as mis leading, or is this to get you more views through a shock header? Clickbait thumbnail, essentially.
@@lmm wow.... to the person who is just scrolling through "last ever train" sounds like you're implying that this is the last ever train on the cvr. Can you not see how it could come across. When you put "last EVER....." On a thumbnail or title, it implies that the place is closing down or has already done so.
@@Faulty720 "Last Ever" implies it's the "Last Ever" which for the 165 it is. Which again, it clearly states in the video title. It also doesn't mention the CVR in the thumbnail. To confirm it is the Colne, you'd need to read the title.
@@lmm 🙄 oh well I tried.... Just to clarify, you search for the CVR On TH-cam. Your video pops up and the first thing the viewer is drawn to is the caption "last ever...." In the thumbnail. They Know it's the CVR already, presumably as they've just searched for it.
@@Faulty720 TH-cam will frequently bring up results which are similar to what you searched for. I'm sure someone might look at the thumbnail, and then they'll read the title of the video.

3:36 you can see a decorative 'Not to be Moved' board on the train being moved :P
It was put there by the Shunter, who couldn't be bothered to remove it for the sake of moving a meter. So.. It was an authorised ignoring

Hi Lawrie. your whitwell locos appeared on a you tube walk on the branch from Norwich to Reepham yesterday from Wobbly walker. Caroline
Oh this little guy is so cute! Hard worker too. When you mentioned it reminded you of a starter train set and showed the drone footage, I couldn't agree more. Great job saving it!
Great to see it with a train! I'm sure it'll look great in a new coat of paint.
Saw the newest Ruston at WRR today, good to see 2 of your engines! Looking good down there with all the stock there
It's going to fit in well I think!
Since that thing is so boxy and it has some gray pannels, maybe you should name it "cinder block"
Cinders. It shall go to the ball!
Cinderella. From the hated ash sweeping girl to the most beautiful girl at the ball.
I think you should try and get really good pictures of the Ruston in it's current state, the idea of someone eventually making the Rusty Ruston trainset sounds wonderful and hilarious.

good vid of as cool train on the channel nice see it run on line will be good when fixed up thanks lee
Seems pretty healthy. I hope this means further restoration work can move forward sooner and more rapidly. Good luck.
we have the exact same locomotive in Belgium, only the cab is made shorter due to a small shed where it is parked in the 80's

Great to see it moving with a train , look forward to seeing it soon feel really happy we were able to help you save it

The running gear is so brightly colored it looks like it doesn't belong in the same picture as the rusty hood.
It's a weird place for them to have started
It runs! That's awesome. The pallet over what I assume is a big hole in the cab floor is a nice touch though, are you gonna keep that? 😂
it will probably be getting a new floor.
shes a beauty! even if a bit rust-ed
come on hornby , hornby train set with a 0-4-0 shunter and low wagon and brakevan called Lawrie Ruston set
Nah i saw the title and jumped i thought you were leaving😂
Can you shut the Donkey engine off early and still air start or does it have to cut out?
I was thinking of wear and tear.
If Hornby did this as a starter set including the patina on the Ruston I would buy it. Come on there is a Beatles set out there, why not a Lawrie set, we can already get a miniature Lawrie for the cab.
Would be great wouldn't it!

No, this will be living at the Whitwell and Reepham Railway along with 393303
Great video Lawrie and what brilliant test run. Have you decided what paint job you will be giving the 165, will it be back to it's original livery? 🤔.
We've decided on a livery, I don't think it'll be original
I wonder if he will end up buying his own railroad
did i see a not to be moved board on the end carriage??
Now the big question...when its repainted will it be in an authentic livery, or will we finally get a vehical in a custom lmm livery
There is a plan for the livery!
In weirdly has the colours of an 80's Kenner Boba Fett 🤔

to the person who is just scrolling through "last ever train" sounds like you're implying that this is the last ever train on the cvr.
Can you not see how it could come across.
When you put "last EVER....." On a thumbnail or title, it implies that the place is closing down or has already done so.
@@Faulty720 "Last Ever" implies it's the "Last Ever" which for the 165 it is.
Which again, it clearly states in the video title.
It also doesn't mention the CVR in the thumbnail.
To confirm it is the Colne, you'd need to read the title.
@@lmm 🙄 oh well I tried....
Just to clarify, you search for the CVR On TH-cam. Your video pops up and the first thing the viewer is drawn to is the caption "last ever...." In the thumbnail. They Know it's the CVR already, presumably as they've just searched for it.
@@Faulty720 TH-cam will frequently bring up results which are similar to what you searched for.
I'm sure someone might look at the thumbnail, and then they'll read the title of the video.
