Is that a z scale scale size coupler I am looking at on the NYC covered hopper?

Yes. i use either MTLs working Magnematics or AZL Autolatch. the NYC hopper couiplers were in pretty poor shape when that photograph was taken, the Nickel Plate bunk car shows them better

What was the 195 passing through Dalton? I didn't think the Furness line had any semi fast services anymore since the BIF-MIA services were handed from TPE to Northern
@kevsmiththai
@kevsmiththai 2 ай бұрын
Nearly all 195s now on the Furness line except the Lancaster-Carlisles which are 156s. 195 133 was the other Civity in the Grange derailment and was finally allowed to go to Newton Heath under its own power with 117 on the back as security. Interstingly,on Sundays they have been putting a pair of 195/0s on a couple of services and a 195/1 on the 18.25 Barrow to Millom on the Cumbrian Coast. 195 104 is still sat at Ulverston engineers sidings following the derailment and will have to come out by road

I was going to see that light locomotive at askam from Workington docks to coleham but it came over an hour early and I was getting the 16 past 5 service to askam but by the time I got to askam, it would’ve passed so I had to sneak on a train to dalton 😂

I must admit, growing up right next to the WCML in the 1960s these bored me to tears. I wanted to see steam engines like my big brother did at the old New Street and Lickey Incline. I was lucky enough to see the odd Western, Warship & Hymek in their proper colour scheme when visiting relatives in Reading. Also lucky enough to have seen a Blue Pullman as it flashed by in the country nearby. Saw one steam engine in service at the new Coventry station in about 1964 and an Up & Dn Bournemouth Belle on their way to Bournemouth West by Meyrick Park while visiting my gran in Winton, Bournemouth. Little did I know that 22 years later I would be working out of Bournemouth West depot (station long gone sadly), as a BR guard. I may well have worked with some of the crews on those Belles, we had a lot of steam boys left, firemen & guards.

So sad to these scrapped,and none preserved even as a static display, As a young lad ,managed to spot almost all of the AL Electrics late 1960s into the 70s as we lived in Stafford and live just up the road from the WCML and Birmingham line ,took them for granted really ,as they were so common,

Hi Colin Well.. apart from 81 002 which, that last time I heard ,was preserved by the A.C traction group at Barrow Hill Roundhouse. Obviously static, No OHL, but in company with 83 012, 86 006, 89 001, 84 001 and 82 008. You can find my footage of it arriving with other Electrics here, Hauled by DRS Class 20s kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rJaAiKRm2LmxdKc.htmlsi=VkZSC3p6fe-XAqvV Well worth a visit to Derbyshire I would think?

I lived in the WCML, too, near Nuneaton. Remember my first day spotting (packed off by my mum with a flask of soup) sitting opposite the defunct Bulkington station, the village where I lived watching the 'lecies come under the bridge. I saw them all in my time between 71 & 74/5, 81 to 87 bar the two 85's (I think) that were in Doncaster works, the only works I never visited. 😃

TRAINS/LOCOS SLIPPING/SLIDING & SOME OF MY OPERATING EXPERIENCES !!! Bulleid locos after rebuilding were NO more likely to slip than any other type. So the idea they were notorious slippers is a typical train spotter fallacy !!! But leaves on the line is a whole different kettle of fish. Which will affect modern trains (with disc brakes) far more readily than older types (including steam) which have classic "Brake Blocks" & not forgetting all locos have sanding gear for just such problems !!! So I'm doubtful the steam loco has been stopped by leaves, as it doesn't even appear autumnal !!!. Leaves on the line becomes a small problem when starting or stopping as skidding & slipping can occur. But again sanding gear on all locos can usually deal with that. The real problems with "leaves" has only begun since they started building locos/power cars with "Disc brakes". Because Disc Brakes do NOT act on the wheel tread like Brake Blocks do. So when you apply the brakes on brake block fitted stock, these grab the wheel, (incidentally both sides of the wheel on Bulleid locos!) & cause the wheel temperature to sky rocket to hundreds of degrees in a matter of seconds. Which meant the leaves & rail head were also rapidly heated, burning the leaves & evaporating the water & simultaneously cleaning the wheel tread. Which after a few seconds reduces any problem to virtually zero. With modern "Disc braked" Trains/Locos, the disc brakes are not dissimilar to road vehicle disc pads. So are fitted either on the inside of the wheel (like cars) or on discs mounted on the the actual axles themselves. Which means there is NO cleaning & very little heating of the wheel tread. Hence these types of train are prone to any problems with leaves sticking to the rail surface. So when Disc braked vehicles began appearing BR had to implement methods to go and deal with the problems of lines affected by leaf fall. This required various types of specially modified or newly built trains to, usually at night, traverse known affected routes. And apply a type of sandy or gritty paste to the rail head. The "sandy" element to give "grip" and the paste element to ensure the "sand" didn't blow away, & also ensure track circuit operation. So the paste part had to be conductive, so the (normally 50v) track circuits would continue to function normally. Or signals would fail to operate correctly !!! In other words in this case modern technology (disc brakes) FAILS considerably and effectively allowed a small issue to become a BIG ONE, costing Millions each year in "Sandite" trains !!! EXAMPLES. Multiple units being generally lighter than locos are more prone to the leaf problem. So two examples one with brake blocks & the second with disc brakes, when I was a BR Top Link Driver on the Southern & Western Regions follow: The first involved a Southern Region 4VEP (Class 423), a 3rd rail electric, four car semi-fast type with 90mph gear ratio, with 1,000 hp in the central 42 ton Motor coach with all four axles powered by 4 x 250hp motors. The Electro-Pneumatic Air Brake fitted to these and many other Southern types (of that era), is probably the Worlds most effective & versatile train brake when working with Brake Blocks. As you can select ANY air pressure to apply instantaneously to ALL wheels in the train. You can put it on & take it off, add a bit, reduce a bit, as many times as you like, without any fear of running out of brake force during braking. The service in question was a Guildford to Waterloo semi-fast service calling all stations to Surbiton & then fast to Waterloo. Approaching Worpledon the first station after leaving Guildford you are on a 90mph line going downhill on a gradient of around 1 in 150, and the approach area is prone to leaf fall in Autumn. So I was actually approaching Worplesdon slightly less than normal at around 70mph, and brought the train to a stand one coach past the 4 car stop mark. There had been a slight bit of sliding for a couple of seconds, when I first applied the brake quite strongly, to knock the train speed down. So I reached the 12 car platform end at about 40mph, and from there in stopped as normal as if it was a dry sunny summer day. The second run a week or so later, on a similar service to Waterloo, involved a Class 455 4-car sliding door type suburban unit. With 75mph gear ratio & again 1,000 hp divided between the four axles on the central motor coach. These units had the notorious Three Step Brake (electrically applied simultaneously on all axles, but with only 3 set choices of brake pressure 18/36 or 50psi possible) & using disc brakes. So approaching Worplesdon and knowing there were leaf fall problems. I approached at 55mph, and applied the brake a good half a mile before the station, in step one. Immediately the whole 4-car train picked up its wheels. This instigated the notorious "Blow Down valves". A protection system to try & prevent wheels sliding and wearing wheel flats on them,.by TAKING OFF the brake on any axles detected as slipping. So the whole four car train merrily reached the station still doing 40mph and slid through the whole 12-car platform and out the other end before finally coming to a halt a few hundred yards further on. Before I had even stopped, I was on the radio phone to the signalman at Woking, who gleefully told me I was the third 455 to experience this problem that morning, and not to worry, just continue to Woking !!!! As a result these 455 units (and certain other types with this type of brake including Class 158/159 DMMU's) were disliked by virtually all drivers who had to drive them at ANY time of year. FOR THE RECORD: I have worked for numerous Railways around the World since 1977. In various departments from signalling to Engineering & even Railway Corporate Economics. And from the driving point of view I have driven Steam/Diesel & Electric traction. Indeed I can even claim to have been the First person to drive one of the then new Brush built Bo-Bo-Bo (Yes that's Tri-Bo) Electric locos, during the implementation of the then New Zealand Government Railways, North Island Main trunk line electrification back in 1987.
