2:55 officer i swear this locomotive was talking to me
I wish one of Johnson’s 0-4-4 tanks had been preserved. They actually did try to put one aside at Crewe in the 1920s (repainted in full MR livery and all), but unfortunately Stanier ordered it to be cut up. Sadly no further efforts were made and now they’re all gone.
Hornby used a photo of this 'Puffing Billy' crossing the bridge on the front cover of one of their toy train sales brochures, a long time ago.
I went on it for a day trip to the seaside in about 1961. 🙂
E2 and friends 💀
Yes, it’s remarkable to see the E2, the USA dock shunter and the Merchant pacific, similar to Thomas, Rosie and Rebecca are like visitors, although the USA shunters are brought to help the E2s because their wheels can go round the tight curves at Southampton harbour, not because of replacement, but it’s good to know the history of the harbour too
2:11 he is the really useful engine that we all know
In 1962 Thornaby had a fleet of 183 steam engines on the books + a couple of dozen diesels (in service) - and a couple of dozen additional diesels (ordered but not yet delivered).
Wouldn't it be wonderful, just for once, that we could get commentary that a) doesn't sound like an utter that from a bygone era but more importantly b) can actually pronounce ANY of the place names. If this guy could get it wrong, he did! Banavie not Bana vie CorpaCH not Corpak Locheil not Lochale Arisaig not Ari Zaig Mallaig not Ma laig It's not difficult.

Wonderful, everything that made this country, including an intelligent clear narrator
This film should be shown in all schools.
Outstanding 💯 what a bit of history
It is a shame, most of the trains here were featured in thomas and friends, and then scrapped
I am a little late commenting on this but as a matter of record I am a Hayling Island lad and lived in the first house over the bridge from Havant. As a lad I could see the old Billy going by from my bedroom window, my playground was underneath the central turntable on the bridge across the langstone harbour crossing, when the train went over, ended up with hair full of rust that dropped from above. When Beecham closed the line it was stated the bridge was weak and could not be repaired so they cut all the timber baulks off the top of the bridge and asked the Royal Navy to blow up the concrete piers below to provide seagoing navigation. On the day of the demolition we were all advised to open our windows and doors prior to the explosion, then at the alotted time there was the biggest bang and shock wave you can imagine, result? Well you can still see those concrete piers still standing today, not a scratch on em! Never trust a bluddy expert.
Beeching. 🙂
Thank you... I use to watch her come past our playground at Bolingbroke Playground in Battersea. Of course no knowledge of her then just she was different looking (Pullman set up). Now of course as you get older you think of these things. 🤔
United Kingdom England Brighton The Lbsc Engine Train 1958 🇬🇧 Playmobil
fun fact: thomas in the day out with thomas event is technically the only existing e2's irl (i think)
My son remembers that Rosie and Fizz and Thomas and Milo are at Southampton Docks
I love how the E2 is technically the most recognized steam locomotive in the world, yet when these things were in service barely anyone paid attention to them.
It's been said before, but I do wish an E2 was preserved. The fact they're the basis for Thomas aside, they were elegantly designed locomotives, and had a surprisingly long and productive career. Whilst not the most amazing or well-performing locomotives ever made, the E2s found good use as shunters and were clearly quite helpful in some scenarios.
If anyone's interested, the unmentioned A4 we briefly saw as Mallard was coming 'off shed' was "Falcon".
E2 Qué es la comolotora más favorita??????
Thomas and his brothers and sisters
People were dressed so well ❤
Taylored for boys and adults? Not for Girls then?

The real Life is Thomas, Rosie, Rebecca, and Henry
*Hop Pickers (not hot pickers. Maybe they were hot, but that's not the point.)
Was this narrated by Nicholas Courtney?
And then theres mauid

I See Henry
Thomas and titanic
1:04: so those white circles on the smoke box door and above the buffers said what jobs the engines were assigned that day. I always wondered what those were.
The beauty of the e2 is stupendous and magnificent
Put one of our E classes (either the 2-4-2 or 0-6-2) and they’d do better than an E2
What nostalgia. Never thought I would see an excerpt of 'Railway Roundabout' again. Some of my earliest TV memories were of this programme and it's just as I remember it: grainy black & white film with a 'received English' commentator. It was still great though.
I also have a Hardback Book called The Railway Policeman. The Story of the Constable on the Track. By J. R. WHITBREAD.
I have a Hardback DORLING KINDERSLEY DK EYEWITNESS GUIDES Book of TRAIN. Discover the story of railways - from the days of steam to the high - speed, sophisticated trains of today. In association with THE NATIONAL RAILWAY MUSEUM.
The E2 tank engine was the best I would like to go back in time to see it + I think this is the only video of the E2 tank btw wheel slip 4:35
There are some short tunnels between Glenfinnan and Lochailort.
Fun fact, E2s No. 32105 and No. 32109 had been modified with bigger ladders for harbour work, weirdly they didn't add bigger buffers, which most harbour shunters had.
Thomas Henry Rosie And Rebecca Were Here!
So are the thomastards
Es Thomas the tank engine
3:01 "Henry says pulling trains is hard, but I think it's easy" ,said Thomas
Bro you look at this e2 backing up with the load off rolling stock, the picture thomas the tank engine shunting coaches at knappford station in season 1 episode 1. Who's your favorite thomas and friends narrator if you have one. 2:35
And also add Thomas grumbling about wanting to " see the world"
At last I see footage of the class of my childhood friend Thomas the tank engine
