The fact that an absolute powerhouse of a locomotive for its size looks like it was built in Minecraft is definitely something. The Q1's boxy design has made it consistently one of my favourite locomotives, and the fact it was so powerful enhances that. Heck, I can easily see it in BR Blue if BR wanted to keep limited steam use, as its square design gives real diesel vibes.

If the Bluebell find an empty space in their 'recreation shops' at Sheffield Park, they ought to think about recreating another Q1. It's unlikely the NRM will allow C1 back out on the rails and it did so well at the Bluebell in the past (my kids were brought up on the Q1) that they could do worse. They are only ever going to steam the really big engines now and again (when they eventually come back - yes, I know why they have been less than conspicuous for a decade) and a Q1 in another decade would be just perfect.

I recall a ride on a train to Guildford, somewhere around 1966, pulled by 33001 which ended up eventually on the Bluebell Railway. I can even remember the driver stopping to pick up his hat, which had blown off his head and landed by the side of track. The other memorable part of the day was arriving in Guildford to see Britannia (70000) waiting there. The driver kindly let the three of us lads climb up into the cab for a closer inspection. Q1s were a common sight on Southern back in the 1950s and 60s; I thought they were rather lovely.

Q1 class tractive effort: 30080 lb. Black 5 tractive effort: 25455 lb. The Q1 boiler and firebox had a slightly greater heating surface than the Black 5. (Which is what determines sustained steaming capacity). Q1 loco weight (all of it adhesive, i.e. on the driving wheels): 51 tons. Black 5 loco weight 72 tons, but some of that on the leading bogie, so I doubt its adhesive weight would be any more than the Q1. Q1 power class: 5F Black 5: 5P5F. So a Q1 could pull at least as much, if not more, than a Black 5, though the Black 5 may have had a higher allowable maximum speed. The only advantage for a Black 5 would be in an unfitted (unbraked) freight train where its extra weight would give better braking. Not unusual for a freight engine to out-pull a mixed traffic engine.

@cr10001
@cr10001 2 года назад
@@lukythesteamlover There is no simple answer. On the level? Or on a particular line? The allowable load for a particular class of engines would vary according to the nature of the load and the gradients on the line. Someone here may have a schedule for various locos (or power classes) on a particular line, I'm afraid I don't. Allowable loads would be determined by the tractive effort (pull) of the loco, by the weight on the driving wheels, by its power (not quite the same thing as tractive effort, and dependent on its boiler capacity), and by its braking ability. This is why 'power classes' such as 5P (Passenger), 7F (Freight) and the like were developed, to simplify the task of the staff in making up trains. So in theory, a Q1 (class 5F) would be allowed the same load as a Black 5 (also 5F). The Q1 actually had a greater pull than the Black 5, but weighed less (so less braking ability), which is probably why they both got classified as '5F'. There was also Route Availability - where a loco was allowed to go - and in that respect a Q1 probably had a greater availability because it was lighter. So someone may have a 'typical' answer or some specific examples. I'm afraid (without a lot of research) I can't help with that.

The Q1 is far from attractive, but this is part of what makes them unique. The mind of Mr O. S. Bulleid came up with some interesting designs. When I first got deep into British railway modelling I wasn't too keen on these, but when I got heavily into Southern Railway modeling I started to like them. 6 years ago I wasn't a fan of Mr Bulleid's Pacifics. I initially came to prefer the rebuilt version, but after reading in 2017 of the last days of Southern steam 50 years ago, I gained a whole new admiration for the three classes that Mr Bulleid had created, and 4 years later have around 5 of them in OO scale on my layout, only bettered by the LBSCR Terriers at a fleet of about 7!

A mid sized engine that left a MASSIVE footprint. Shame we can't see it under steam.

I'm not really a train person but I think it looks cool. They where light with powerful engines as a car guy it sounds like a hot rod to me

The T-34-85 of British Locomotion. Nothing flashy about them, but the fact that they were used for decades afterwards speak a lot of good about them. //good god, 7 countries STILL officially used T-34-85s as of 2021. Latest war it saw was like 2014 in Yemen. Is there another tank that old that is still in use?!

They are beautiful locos, but in a different way. The Q1 is still my favorite steam loco along with the Big Boy.

The Q1 is basically the Kalashnikov of the locomotive world. Pure industrial efficiency with zero creature comforts.

Incorrect, it used to be there and did run for a number of years, it's been back at the National Railway Museum in York who own it.

If everything in the world looks the same then there is no such thing as beauty or ugliness. These locos proved to be more efficient than any other class of their type. As such, they were far more useful than all the rest. As for beauty, just imagine the most perfect woman on earth. 24 hours later you will have forgotten her as there is nothing that sticks in your mind. You only remember beauty by the small faults that deviate from perfection. As for me, I find these engines beautiful.

There's a heritage railway near me with some very American looking engines, they told me they were specially built in America for British railways. I think they're call S160? They seem quite interesting and likely have a story behind them. It's weird seeing them as you'd usually expect British Steam locos.
@ramdude12
@ramdude12 3 года назад
That would be correct, the USATC S160s were American 2-8-0 Consolidation locomotives built for use in Europe during WWII. They have been used almost all over the world at one point or another now. Wikipedia has everything detailed about them of course.
