3D Printed Train Whistles Sound Out at Full Scale
-
Yesterday, we took a ride along the East Lancashire Railway. My father-in-law used to fire the engines of steam locomotives (in the late 1950s/early 1960s), so this must have brought back fond memories for him. He often tells us about cooking breakfasts on a shovel and goes into great detail when describing the trains he used to help operate. The driver kindly took him onto the footplate, where he could get a closer look at the controls.
Our thoroughly enjoyable journey from Rawtenstall to Heywood (and back) was powered by Tornado. As the Legends of Steam III event was taking place this weekend, there were plenty of rail enthusiasts present 🚂

Sir Nigel Gresley
60007 Sir Nigel Gresley sits on platform at Sheffield Park steaming away to herself ahead of her first service of the day. My favourite steam locomotive. Found In: Bluebell Railway: Giants of Steam 2024 Just a quick note. I've now managed to post on this site every day for 500 consecutive days. I'm very pleased with that achievement, but I am also starting to think it might be time to take another break. I hate to break a streak though, so I might find myself fighting that urge.https://dailyphoto.creativesplurges.com/2026/04/02/sir-nigel-gresley-3/

I was astounded to discover this year's Giants of Steam features 4 newly built steam locos, recreating examples of classes with no survivors. Some use scavenged parts from similar engines, but 60163 Tornado was built completely from scratch.
