"Oh my grease and oil. I wasn't expecting this hill. Oh, what's that?" His wheels slipped forward and then there was trouble.

Nicely done,thanks for sharing,,

nice rake of 1980s livery inter city blue mk2 coaches but them west coast tractors need a better livery as they look very dull & boring in crap west coast livery! good video clip 🥰

It’s ashamed that D829 Magpie and D818 Glory are not in preservation because the preservation team didn’t have any chance of preserving them

Diesel hydraulic beauty 😊

this is stunning , congratulations to all involved in bringing to life

Marvelous

I was on the E.Lancs Invader, what a trip ! Who ever would have believed that a Western and Whistler would traverse the St.Ives branch !,😊

Westerns forever! Simply the best ,!😊

4:50 is that Henry Oakley I spot in the background?

I am from Reading and only just remember how it used to look before the new station was built, gave me lovely memories of watching the trains come through as a kid with my grandpa, fantastic job!

Something special about ARS's. I was stationed on the USS Conserver ARS-39, in Pearl Harbor Hawaii. we went on 2 West-Pac's between 1979, 1nd 1982. Duty in the US Navy was the best time of my life!

There's no such thing as "OO/HO", and the two scales are not interchangeable. This is OO (unless they scratch-built every single locomotive, coach and wagon).

Brilliant

Excellent video. Might I ask, how did you reach the locations at 0:07, 0:46, 1:08 and 2:37? Many thanks.

Very nice indeed 👌 Would love something like this, its finding the Space,

Lucky with the Voyager at Cowley Bridge! 🍺

nice set of thumpers they remind me of a class 20 locomotive especially with the engine sounds!!!

Nice.🍺

This was a great railtour to see early in the year, you got some great shots of her and some great sounds too!

some muppet pouring oil on the tracks?

NICE LAYOUTS SPOILT BY SERIOUS IGNORANCE OF OPERATIONAL RULES !!! Visually a nice layout, & a reasonable recreation of Reading General station area. But like so many layouts today, falls flat on it's face when it comes to Operation. The line through Reading in this era is in reality operating under "Track Circuit Block Rules" !!! At 0:51 the Class 50 hauled train crashes a Red signal, and again at 7:25 & 14:38 & 18:21 with the Class 33 hauled freight. Which reveals there's NO Interlocking built into the wiring system used, which is an absurdly simple addition on 12v DC layouts !!! Red lights visible on the rear of locos hauling trains, would of course quickly result in such trains being stopped by red signals. As this is a serious offence as it implies there has been a collision, and the Driver would most likely have been issued with a "Form 1 charge" meaning suspension & a minimum of 3 days loss of pay pending the results of the necessary Inquiry !!!! Weird use of Plough vans (these look like Brakevans but aren't) with 30mph speed restrictions & tail lamps that shouldn't be there !!! Container trains with 8ft 6in high containers on flat wagons, which means they are "Out of Gauge". These 8ft 6in high containers must be loaded in the "well wagon" type container wagons, the reason why such wagons were built !!! The problem of actually installing ANY type of European Block Signalling System on layouts, is the GAPING HOLE currently with DCC. The reason being that the American NMRA club with around 2 Million members, dictated the requirements of how DCC would be wired, for the whole World. And of course the Americans are totally unfamiliar with ANY of the "Block Signalling systems" used in Europe & many other countries. Instead DCC is wired to allow for the American CTC (Central Traffic Control i.e Radioed instructions to Drivers to permit movement). Which is of course the main reason the US Railroads have more crashes & derailments per month than the whole of Europe in one year !!! So totally unhelpful when building any type of European layout, unless it's an "Industrial" freight only layout !!! Indeed this exact problem was what caused Fleischmann to be virtually bankrupted, as they spent £2 Million in research to add a very clever flexible method into DCC master controllers, to allow most European Block Signalling systems to be added to layouts with a direct interface to connect moving trains with the signals !!!

Awesome Police Car! 🚔

Glad to see em still running

It was my misfortune once to have to work with high-achieving narcissist. One day somehow during a conversation, we got on to the subject of trains and I mentioned the Intercity diesel trains. He pulled me up with the pedantic remark that "Actually, they're diesel electric". Be that though it may; he said it to show off and to humiliate me in front of others, so I quipped "Oh Mike, you anorak". Never heard a peep out of him after that.

THANKS FOR FILMING AND SHARING THE VIDEO, SHE STILL LOOKS GREAT.🇺🇸👍🏻

Nice pictures thank you.🦘🍺

So beautiful. Great scenery. Joe Give u sub.

That's where I used to sit when my Dad was on his route in a Queen Mary around Crawley, early 60's. The Clippy would pass me through the opening behind the doors.

❤️😎

Hymeks are underated . They are overshadowed by the D1000s which is a shame.

👍👍👍👍🦘🐨🤠😎

Brilliant array of workings captured during the summer!! Glad there was action from the railtour season down in my local area of Devon around Teignmouth, the banks and in Keyham too!! You cannot beat shots at Cockwood Harbour its brilliant!

💯👍👍👍👍👍👏👏🍺Well done thank you.🦘

Excellent video!! Some brilliant shots and clips there I love the SVR and their Diesel galas!! The narration is a nice touch too and quite informative

👍👍👍👍

Thanks for uploading. I was in Seat K12

Fantastic noise

Brilliant railway - and only closed I understand because the H & S requirements became so onerous that the owner found it too complex to carry on. Such a shame that everyone lost such a great asset - and all because common sense was over-ruled.

Is the miniture railway still open? Beautiful railway 🛤 🚂🚃🚃🚃

It’s quite cool to see a replica of a steam locomotive, that was built from home country United States of America, that is running here in the UK at the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway. Quite impressive videoing. Lynton & Barnstaple Railway No. 762 “Lyn” is another beautiful steam locomotive.

Those trains look like Diesel.

2:40: That horn was from a automobile or from the cab car of the train? And if is from the cab car of the train, was the predecessor of the current push-pull trains?

The last clip was *insane* 100mph running on a branch line. I didn't know Pinky and Perky now worked on the South Devon!

So glad that I'm old enough to have seen these beasts thunder through Reading in their heyday

Everyone forgets that when you sand the rails u’ve gotta drag the train over it afterwards & it’s not that simples!

Super

Imagine being pulled over by that. Love the Morris minors

Good to see that the Engine of Calcutta is running in England.❤😊
