I was lucky to see City of Truro at the NRM some time in my youth, but sadly haven't seen it since. And yes, I think this may have been the first steam loco to go 100mph, much more likely than No. 999. Americans only say that one was faster first because they want to be better.

Then again, if you look at LMS 6201 Princess Elizabeth and compare her to any of the GWR King Class 4-6-0's, there are PLENTY of similarities... Most notibaly: 4 cylinders, outside cylinders sitting behind the driving wheels and how those steam pipes feeding the outside cylinders are curved. Heck, William Stannier actually worked on the GWR, under the supervision of G.J. Churchward, I think.
@Rosie6857
@Rosie6857 7 лет назад
Stanier was Collet's deputy. The only way Stanier could get the top job was to move. He went to the LMS in 1932 and turned them into something decent because prior to that LMS locos were a bit of a dog's dinner, with a few exceptions.
@alexwright6038

The Flying Scotsman would never have made the ton without the GWR loaning LNER a castle to try for a fortnight. The LMS were so impressed when they borrowed one, they first asked for 200, when this was rejected they asked for the plans. In the end they just hired the deputy CME from the GWR

When City of Truro was steamed for the last few times (approx 10 years ago) they said it’s a mechanical right-off, beyond repair, so it will never steam again. Regarding its 100mph (or thereabouts) high speed run, it was the first man made machine to do that sort of speed, because planes and helicopters didn’t yet exist, and cars were in their infancy.

It's just the old-fashioned appearance. The factors you mention are much more important but ironically City of Truro has slide valves which means rather tortuous steam passages. If fitted with well-designed piston valves (and there's room for them) less steam would have been needed. As it was, the loco had to be slaughtered (like Mallard later) and could not have kept up that steam rate for long. Unlike Mallard it didn't do itself any damage, GW locos always being robustly engineered.

streamleazefishhouse They certainly were as far as locomotive technology goes. When Collet's first Castle was exhibited next to Flying Scotsman in 1924, there was much debate over who had the better engine. And after a few trials, the Castles proved to match the original A1s on performance but burn less coal. It took some modifications on Gresley's part, inspired (to some degree) by what made the Castles work so well, for the A3s to materialise and improve the LNER's image.

Slight error in your video - Truro's tender is actually only 3,000 gallon capacity. Either that or when I was her fireman they fit a water gauge on the tender that lied about how much water it could take! Also, I believe that the GWR asked the LNER to preserve her, as the former wanted her to live on as evidence that it had been the GWR who broke the ton, but had no desire (or facilities) to retain responsibility for her upkeep! Still, loved the video, and love Truro!
@ChristheXelent
@ChristheXelent 9 лет назад
Jeremy Cooper I'll own up to my ignorance and declare I got my tenders mixed up. My bad. As for the GWR asking the LNER, that makes more sense now you mention it. But given their rivalry by this point (and the fact that Gresley had studied what made the Castles better steamers than his A1s by now), the casual observer could assume the LNER were in a position to say "no". An old Eastern Region driver tipped me off about this story arc, but not those finer details. His views were far more dismissive than my own, so I felt there was a need to redress some balance. Still, I'm glad you enjoyed it despite the niggles.
@WD060T

Chris Eden-Green The story as I understand it was the GWR directors had no interest in the preservation of the engine however the CME Charles Benjamin Collett did, he approached the LNER after suggesting the idea to Sir Nigel Gresley.

It has been proven mathematically that a locomotive of this size taking into consideration the double frames the Stevenson valve gear the boiler pressure size of cyclinder opencab (aerodynamic drag) and the dynamic forces at work with outside connecting rods that it would be beyond the locomotive to exceed 100 mph as claimed Its a matter of pure physics

IDK about this one, it boggles my mind that nobody tried to officially attempt a 100mph run since, either it can't be done, or nobody rich enough to try it is as curious as me, and Occam's razor suggests its the former rather than the latter. But still, compared to the Flying Debtman getting it in tip top condition is pocket change, don't you think it would be great to finally over 100 years later get an answer to the question of if its possible?

+bingola45 Yes, her frames were red with the number 3440 pre 1912. 3717 with black frames after.

City of Truro is England's fourth fastest steam locomotive infront of Flying Scotsman. I don't know which engine are second and third.
@DanielW3440
@DanielW3440 8 лет назад
Probably Mallard (126mph) and Silver Fox (113mph).

DanielW3440 Mallard is first fool. PLUS I SAID Second and third. Not bloody firs
@DanielW3440
@DanielW3440 8 лет назад
Sorry I spoke. My bad, Mallard is indeed first. Second and third are probably Silver Fox (113mph) and Papyrus (108mph). I believe Sir Nigel Gresley also achieved 112mph down Stoke Bank, while on a passenger train but I don't think it was officially recorded.

According to one definition, it is a city if it has a cathedral, and Truro has a cathedral

Scotsmans Claim to fame of speed isnt exactly 100% worthy, It was the first actual full account, but, Truro did achieve 102.3 mph. The time between mile posts was recorded and have been found. Showing that it hit 102.3mph. It was on a downhill section with 4 post sorting offices, 1 Traveling post office (with pick up and drop of net) and 1 van with gold ingots from america. (Not very big train). Then it was achieved going down a steep hill and the tender had just refilled up on water. And the driving wheels are pretty big.
