  • Search for "Hornby Live Steam pulling power" or copy paste this into the search bar v=T9jvfSR8vhU and you will see FS starting more slowly and pulling an amazing 30 coaches!

  • @PlanesTV Thank you! suggestiv video for me.

  • FS sure seemed to have trouble with those coaches.

  • No, coaches have no problem.

    I tried several FS of HORNBY LIVE (at least 5 or more) for two years. Unfortunately, There is no FS that ran satisfactorily.

    I think that this FS is a troublesome product.

    Mallard is good!

  • is the train so heavy???

  • Live steam is not easy to controle. Especially, the start is difficult.

  • Even if the model is difficult to operate, I think the wheel-slip there makes it rather realistic, in a way. Most locos do tend to loose grip slightly on starting 8-)

  • Actually the front tender holds water and Coal. The Second tender holds only water.

    And it is a corridor tender, it also has a room where the relief crew can rest.

  • HEVY HANDED FOOL

  • LNER BOARD MEETING:

    HEAD OPERATOR: ok let's talk about wheel slip.

    lolol great video

  • the wheel slip thing was really cool.My live steam golden fleece never does that

  • @TomixNscale89 - no, the electric current used to boil the water is fed through the rails, so you need a unique power supply & controller to operate this loco.

  • so lucky next to the daylight express,one of the famous steam engines here in America i always wanted to get this version of the flying Scotsman,because i always liked the flying scotsman compared ti any other steam engine,other then thomas himself but im talking about real trains lol but i dont have that kind of money he cost for my layout :'(

  • I saw wheelslip

  • Hey topkazfatt was this video tooken before the loco was fully run in? I noticed there was no whistle sounding when it went through the cycle of starting make sure after it has heated for 5-10 minutes that you tap the regulator bar on the controller not hold it down this will cause the engine to slip more than it should at start and go at a high speed also after the engine has heated up and is ready to move move the wheel to the II setting this is for running the loco.
