Also The LNER A4 Pacific Silver Link did break all records by going at 112mph but afterwards one of the A4s named Silver Fox broke that record and exceeded by a bit by doing 113mph but later on a few years later the LMS Coronations Scot 6220 broke the record by doing 114mph

Also I would of liked to see a class40 in this list but that's okay considering that you featured city of truro's class. I look forward to seeing more videos like this. The getting started video was really helpful, and I really want go start on a model railway .

I don't know. I like it in BR Green. But I feel it's more cahracterful in LNER green. The problem is though is that she has a double chimney, which she kinda needs as it's more efficient and I think due to mainline regulations (I may be wrong though). Because of that she also needs the smoke deflectors, I first saw her in LNER Green a few years before her overhaul and she also had the smoke deflectors and double chimney and it felt weird seeing her like that as she never had such features when in LNER days, but being like 7 at the time, this really didn't bother me and I quite liked it. And sadly for her to be truly authentic she needs to be in BR Green.

The City of Truro actually did go 100mph as the first, because according the the Great Western Railway history, it fixed the record before the Flying Scotsman, in 1904 or something, but it was never officials recorded , and therefore it was neglected to be the first.

Hi Sam, nice vid, love a loco in full cry... As for City of Truro... well thats a thorny issue, even between us GWR types. For everyone who claims she couldn't have done it you will find one who will claim she could. I tend to fall into the later camp. Reasons? well a lot of the ex-drivers who claim they couldn;t have reached those speeds drove the Cities in the 1930s; long after they had been booted off the fastest trains by the four cylinder 4-6-0s and were ending their days on cross country routes and secondary trains before withdrawal and as they were considered out dated by then were not always in the best condition.. When the claimed 102mph was reached in 1904 they were new, and in peak condition. They had a reputation of being damn fast back in those days. Rous-Martin, the guy who calculated the 102mph was a respected railway man. Her wrote for The Railway magazine, and timed a lot of trains, often at the request of various companies to evaluate their locomotives performance while in service. I believe the NRM has his notes these days and his calculation on the City of Truros speed have been validated. Of course thats if his timings were right in the first place. He recorded several other fast runs behind City class locos, with others being clocked at around the 95 - 97 mph mark, often with heavier trains than that the Truro was hauling that day. Considering Truro was only pulling a very light train, four boogie mail vans, and was on a steep, 1:60 downhill bank at the time I reckon the 102mph was entirely possible. However the speed was calculated by passing times, not by dynameter readings, and errors in timings could have been made, so the truth will never be known, but it does make for interesting discussions in the pub though. Have a great week mate Jon PS, You a bit of a jazz fan? noticed your playing a lot of jazzy stuff on these vids.

Although your area of expertise is UK railroading and mine is USA, I enjoy seeing what the UK has produced and the sorts of Motive Power and Rolling Stock is made for your market. Is there a way to contact you that is NOT public? I have some photos of my era and models I scratch build. Along with questions regarding your layout that may not be suitable for public scrutiny. (as well as posting my eMail addy for spammers to gleefully add to their flood lists. LOL :-P XD )

an old video yes, but I feel the need for correcting. it *was* Flying Scotsman to *officially* clock 100. perhaps not *the* first, but the first to be recorded.

It was the flying Scotsman that first broke the 100 mph record. Papyrus broke flying scotsman’s record doing 108 mph several years later.

I think he gave flying Scotsman extra coaches so that it would be slower than mallard on the model railway.

You are costing me money & space. I live in the colonies, & do you know how hard it' is to find British trains here. I fell in love with the A4s you run, lucky to find the blue scheme. I have to repaint Thomas couches. I live in an apartment (flat) & I ran out of room for trains. You see I'm a Delaware & Hudson RR modeler. Yes being American I have long trains I run at my train club. Mind you at the club you must at least run 2 engines to pull a drag, hills require a helper or 2. For the club a small train 30 or so cars. Our rr product is steel so a coal drag of 100 hoppers is not usual to see. I enjoy your reviews on the models you showcase.

Um, Sam? I'm not too sure u know this but some guys in the States called the T1 Trust are working on building a new steam loco and when they're done, they're gonna try to break Mallard's record. How do you feel about that?

The mallard was fast indeed. But there is rumor that the s-1 class from America went 146 mph. Sadly it never made it to the record books. But I believe it though. There's been talk of other engines that could out run the mallard as well.
