@@ParkinsonsWalks Only kidding…. I used to buy lottery tickets regularly but not anymore, winning £10 every few months will never get me what I want, but anyway I loved your little Rail set up so thanks for sharing 👏🏻👏🏻

Now that is absolutely gorgeous , beautiful beautiful house and impeccable gardens all topped off with an absolute gem 💎 of a railway . Whoever owns that should be rightfully very proud . 👏👏👏
Aaow man. Imagine if something as neat as this was an illustrated part of Wilbert Awrdy's stories of _The Railway Series._ If only he could've lived just a lil' longer to actually make interesting real-life events around garden railways and how they're an astounding experience in relation to the life of building, running, and maintainenace about railways. Mhm, the retrospects I see with my very own two eyes of watching how railways around the globe are still a fascination to me and what they embark on when it comes to motive transportation. Gee, railroading is just so cool 😎
What a lovely locomotive and set up. I,m new to steam but been around most things mechanical all my life. I plan to build a loco soon and yours is such an inspiration thankyou. Regards Stuart Bell
@@ParkinsonsWalks You obviuosly know your music. I am/was a string bass player playing all sorts, and your sort conjures up an English country garden without Percy Grainger.which is an advantage.
Nice railway my great great grandfather who was an engine driver built a garden railway before 1920s in his garden he laid tracks down and built train at his house his sons helped him as well (one of them my great grandad) he used railway for a launderette he ran as a business at his house going around garden placing washing onto baskets and taking it to the vans that arrived at the house.
Looks very much like a "Tinkerbell" class engine or something very similar, first developed by Roger Marsh. Some later ones were built by the Moors Valley Railway which I used to visit and later volunteer at as a Guard while my grandparents were still alive.
@@ParkinsonsWalks You are very welcome. It puts my railway to shame.czcams.com/video/7X2bcztohqE/video.html It has been extended since this film, with a branch.
Just brilliant....what a way to relax...here in Northern Spain they had a narrow guage for mountain work...and guess what they took it all down... My hands covered my face in astonishment... I tried to explain just how few narrow lines are running....but it had no effect...beautiful area through the mountains for about 25 miles...most of the buildings left to ruin...some have now been taken over as restaurants...but what a waste...sad...😥😢
omg , havent heard that song in years . speaking of engines , i want 1. lovely vid you get ten likes from me.!! the best music at the end was mr robin bird singing and merlin sizzling happly :)
Why is this man so much better than most of us, like imagine just owning a mini railway in your backyard, front yard, etc. Honestly a great video and I really love the scenery. This earned you a like from all my other CZcams accounts and a subscribe.
Shades of Sir Arthur Heywood, the Sand Hutton Light Railway and other Edwardian geniuses. That little engine is almost pure Heywood in concept - utterly lovely!
Oh how beautiful, its own garden railway. We are an association and have a train park. For you all the best and greetings with a whistle. wheely04 from Germany
What a fantastic video, and a superb little engine, beautiful surroundings to boot, and the sounds of the blackbird just top it off for me, a delightful little railway ride
This is why, if I ever visit England, I don't want to go near London or the big cities. I want to stick to the British Countryside. Those rolling green hills are simply gorgeous. And that's coming from someone who lives in very flat Central Florida. I would like to ask a probably over-asked question, but what is the music you used in this? It really worked well here.
The music at the beginning, Delius? Please let me know, it is so lovely British. Never mind, well put in the end titles, so Eric Coates. I'm not surprised. Just beautiful.
@@ParkinsonsWalks Closer than you think P.W - Try Alan Keef in Lea, Ross-on-Wye - www.alankeef.co.uk/ They did have open days once upon a time, but either way, there car park is worth a visit in itself!
Hey for the 50 dis likes it’s ok not e every one has the know how or the skill or even the place for a back yard train. I know I don’t but I do enjoy the video still so sit back enjoy and quit crying .
Holy crap he actually has a firebox! he's a absolutely adorable little tank engine! I have so many questions! How much water does he hold, how long does it take to get up to steam and what do you use for tinder? Also what's her track gauge?
@@ParkinsonsWalks I fancy a Station Road Steam Feldbahn 0-6-0, especially rather than despite being rather unwell! If I had not been born a bit too late for a job on the railway in the age of steam I would have liked a life on the footplate but diesel and electric locos just don't have that certain magic for me. It is difficult to explain the appeal of steam to those who don't understand what it's all about 🤔😊😉
This is simply delightful. Beautifully shot and wonderful in terms of atmosphere.
Thanks so much for this video.
You are most welcome. Ron
It's amazing how much personality Merlin has, considering he's not even alive. Such a lovely little engine!
Just like an old friend. P.W.

Hi Paula, I did enjoy making that film, thanks for watching. Ron
That locomotive reminds me of Ivor the engine from that British show. And when I saw the British flag I knew that it could have been inspired by Ivor

Simply what dreams are made of. Passion, dedication and love for stream railways. The garden is amazing.

Did you build all that by your self and did you have to build the train or did you buy it from somewhere ?
