      It's pretty much what happens when you take model railways to the next level as it pretty much is a 1:1 scale narrow gauge model railway being built as a play thing originally and then finally advancing into a giant collection.

    That was great thanks. Laurie didn't show us the workshop with its modern CNC machines which is at a different level to any other steam workshop I have visited. When I was there last year there were 1-2 new build steam loco's in the workshop and several being restored/repaired. The enthusiast days are amazing with up to 10 engines in steam, plus the narrow gauge tram/trolley and the garden railway also in use. I understand that they have also recently opened another narrow gauge route on the site. Its well worth a visit but is only open on a limited number of days a year. It wasn't that long ago when you had to write to them for an invitation to be able to visit

In my opinion, despite everything, it is still the best, most durable, most sustainable and most repair-friendly technology there is. I think it's really nice that someone still takes the time to fight. Thanks. Really great post! 👍🏻 Respect!

    Side note, but I’m still finding it mental how many quarry hunslets there are. Statfold alone has like 5-10 if I recall correctly. There’s like 30 others preserved aswell. And I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s actually accurate or even an understatement.

    Can we get a few close up shots of that for those of us that worked and benefited from the work of the Matthews Brothers.
    Charles senior was the father, they were building movers by trade. They also played a large part in the moving of streetcars (trams) for the museum here in Ontario.

    Just wondering, how is there a Sandy River and Rangeley Lakes coach there? I'm with one of the Maine two foot railroad museums and find it neat. I know the Maine two footers started thanks to George Mansfield who was inspired by the Festiniog and started his own in Massachusetts which only lasted nine months by Massachusetts and moved everything to Maine and help start the Sandy River railroad. At its peak Maine had five two foot railroads totaling over two hundred miles.

  • @hugos5114
    @hugos5114 Před 2 měsíci

    interesting to note that the Corpet's brown gear is not the "original" builder's version, as it has been adapted with an Hackworth crank instead of the radial gear that was known as the "Corpet-Brown" valve gear in France. Also, as weird as it looks, Brown locomotives built by Corpet-Louvet were quite numerous and often seen building lines or proceeding with trackwork on secondary railways! A few were even later repurposed as light passenger engines, and would be seen pulling a couple of wooden passenger cars.
