The Last ever Train of the Ruston 165 saved from Scrap on the Colne Valley Railway 

I can dream!

we should name is the 'LRIRM' Lawries Ruston Industrial Railway Museum' also known as the witwell and reetham railway XD

Three engines is a helluva lot closer to private railway than most people 😂

Maybe we don't give him ideas? Great ideas, sure...but still

​@@schwarzermoritz three engines is more than some 'real' railway companies owned...

It's nice to give it a good send off

Lovely machine

Coastal or western?

take a wee trip mate, the pond is small and time is short.. :D get amongst it!

@@warhamsterful Been there several times. My mother was a lawyer from 2000 through 2007, made pretty decent money, although nothing like the hotshots you see playing legal eagle on the telly. Middle of 2007 she started acting kinda funny, turns out her primary doc misunderstood something from literally a bit over a decade prior, round about 1994 I'm pretty sure, and over the next half year it really started catching up to her. Things... did not go well. She's badly disabled, now, and I've been disabled in my own way for life. We're now both flat broke, and stuck wasting away in this tiny little hick town in the middle of North Carolina. The people here are so backcountry, in that grand old American way (for the humorless: that was _extremely_ sarcastic) that even their thoughts seem to run backwards. There's nothing to do, no jobs, and almost no housing, and there's hardly even anywhere to go anyways. It's _awful_ -- but I can't afford a plane ticket and I don't know how to sail or swim. Believe me, I'd be there if I could, my soul forever pines for a flat in London. Heck, I'd try for citizenship if I could, no joke. But, alas, it's not to be. I can't afford to go on holiday like that (and the politicians would have a field day with me if I did, look up some time what the term "welfare queen" means in this overly weedy cesspool of a country) and it's not like I can get anyone over there to sponsor me in the way I'd have to if I was able to get serious about immigrating. At least there are people like Lawrie and Jago Hazzard and Dale Charman here on RU-vid where I can sit at my computer screen and remember the good times and try not to cry.

I've come across vids of Norfolk and Western 611 hauling 1890s woodside coaches tender first and photos of 4449 in her American Freedom Train getup helping the Burlington Northern with a freight run following her restoration, you look hard enough you can find a prototype for any event, and even if you can't only the most obnoxious rivet counters are gonna be mad, and let them

Here's hoping!

Thanks for helping! Looking forward to getting stuck in!

Ah so it's oil that makes it smoke kinda blue. I was wondering about that.

Cinders. It shall go to the ball!

Cinderella. From the hated ash sweeping girl to the most beautiful girl at the ball.

Probably running under a possession (or equivalent) as it's clearly not a normal running day.

It's a really good run on the Miniature railway too!

It's going to fit in well I think!

Nope, with your binaural opinion, that's a myth, they work incredibly well with neck speakers, and correctly positioned speakers. You should try it with some examples on our channel, even placing headphones under each ear works quite well, especially with perceptions from above.

It was put there by the Shunter, who couldn't be bothered to remove it for the sake of moving a meter. So.. It was an authorised ignoring

They're lovely machines! It's a good set up at Mountsorrel!

Does give this kinda... industrial engine going through a yard vibe.

Yeah, I wonder what condition it's in now?

@@lmm I need to find out - a tunnel isn't the greatest place to store things after all.

Thank you!

Not far off

Thank you!

All three will be there at LMM Fest on the 10th August at the Whitwell and Reepham Railway....

@@TheHatMusic i so wish i could be there that is incredible though look forward to seeing the videos at least massive achievement everyone involved 🙂

It's a weird place for them to have started

it will probably be getting a new floor.

Would be great wouldn't it! "Preservation begins set" or something

​@lmm they do the 48 and 88 already, so maybe the bigger ones aren't too infeasible...

We've decided on a livery, I don't think it'll be original

I think green

It's a big channel.

Yeah but audience retention It's always better to put this kind of stuff at the start or the video

We didn't. Just ran without vac

@@lmm TY ...

There is a plan for the livery!

In weirdly has the colours of an 80's Kenner Boba Fett 🤔

No, this will be living at the Whitwell and Reepham Railway along with 393303

Yes, it'll be going into a British Sugar livery

Yes

@@lmm ah ok. Any plans on a steam engine

@@terrier_productions no! Can't afford steam

​@@lmmyet

We've got videos coming out that have used it!

@@lmm Great best of luck with your Ruston's always enjoy your videos. have you ever done videos with Wardle Restorations he is restoring rolling stock and owns a Ruston 88DS

Not done a video yet, but we've hung out

@@lmm Well cheers to you and his efforts for rail preservation would love to see something one day always enjoy you both and your endless and amazing videos.

They're expensive!

@@lmm but unironically from what I've heard. most companies are willing to get rid of them for basically nothing. because due to the use of asbestos in their construction they are uneconomical to scrap. so as long as you can afford to feed it

At a growing selection of railways!

I don't think it's been sold yet

@@lmm hopefully someone can give that one a home and get it into working order as well, much harder work though

No, we just went for 4th to make sure the gearbox would get it!

Binaural audio, or holophonic, indeed, It is quite an amazing way of hearing things, we all hear this way if we have non-malformed ears and both ears are working correctly, it's the ONLY way to perceive 3D audio that is heard externally to our heads. I'm totally obsessed with it.

In what way?

You really need stereo or headphones for the full effect

You could buy a better phone :O) Seriously though, try it with headphones or ear buds, but not at full volume, as the volume is the perspective control.

Because most people can read the title of the video

@@lmm wow.... to the person who is just scrolling through "last ever train" sounds like you're implying that this is the last ever train on the cvr. Can you not see how it could come across. When you put "last EVER....." On a thumbnail or title, it implies that the place is closing down or has already done so.

@@Faulty720 "Last Ever" implies it's the "Last Ever" which for the 165 it is. Which again, it clearly states in the video title. It also doesn't mention the CVR in the thumbnail. To confirm it is the Colne, you'd need to read the title.

@@lmm 🙄 oh well I tried.... Just to clarify, you search for the CVR On RU-vid. Your video pops up and the first thing the viewer is drawn to is the caption "last ever...." In the thumbnail. They Know it's the CVR already, presumably as they've just searched for it.

@@Faulty720 RU-vid will frequently bring up results which are similar to what you searched for. I'm sure someone might look at the thumbnail, and then they'll read the title of the video.

I keep asking them to do a 48 like mine!
