I can't help but wonder if they've ever had a tiny train crash... And then went to fetch some tiny cranes and such.

Live steam is a lot of fun indeed. I used to volunteer at a club here in the US that only had steam locomotives and I always enjoyed being there. While I was there, I got to operate three locomotives. A coal fired 2-6-0 and two oil fired locomotives, a 4-4-2 and a 4-6-2

What an incredible railway in miniature set in equally incredible countryside! Additionally it’s superbly engineered and maintained….my congratulations go to everyone involved. It’s too far away from my home to visit…. so I’m grateful for the team who videoed the system and activities for us to watch. Particularly innovative in this video is the use of the drone…a brilliant idea with some cleverly framed ‘from above’ shots! The light must have been a challenge too….but the result was worth it! Thanks to everyone for a fascinating session on KZfaq. Best wishes from Rob in Bournemouth.

If shrink/growth rays or technology that makes things small or big, i think somebody should try to grow this model railway into a scale sized railway! Sure the tracks might probably break though houses and roads that would take place over the track, but, a frw houses and roads for one giant steam mainline railway!

I'm not surprised the Adams Radial bowed out early on that tank train, given how it was visibly being thrashed to within an inch of its' life.

@joegibbons1159 9 ай бұрын

Just for the record, the Adams Radial didn't bow out early, the footage is the wrong way round. I had been driving the class 4 for a while and the track condition was becoming bad enough it was struggling on the few hills, so I asked for the Adams Radial to help out. After a few circuits we decided that one of the wagons was beginning to drag (hot bearing or brakes dragging) and called it a day. That Adams Radial is a strong loco considering its size and is quite often relied upon to help out at a mainline rally.

@TallboyDave 9 ай бұрын

@@joegibbons1159 Really? From how it looked to me, it looked to be trying to do a "Blue Peter at Durham"- to my eyes, it was constantly slipping its' wheels in most of the footage.

@joegibbons1159 9 ай бұрын

@@TallboyDave Look, I'm not here to argue. I drive that Adams Radial regularly at the Gilling rallies and at plenty other tracks; have done since it was finished in 2002. I've had 7 Mk1's behind it on dry rail, and it'll manage 6 without an issue. The Class 4 has had 10 behind it, but it'll probably take more. Double heading isn't as easy as people might think, it's a balancing act, you have to work together and if you can't hear what your locos doing from the exhaust beats it's hard to stop it slipping. Even so, just because a loco slips, doesn't mean it's not pulling. Just means it not pulling as hard as it could be. The track condition wasn't great by the time we came off, and both me and Dad are convince something in that train was seizing up as each lap was harder than the last. And Lawrie, glad you had a good day, certainly seemed like you enjoyed yourself.

Obviously it is really fun driving them but in a way it's sad they aren't remote control as nothing looks worse than a lovely train with a rake of Mark ones and a huge geezer aitt8ng on the tender.

With the railway switches are they remote controlled or does someone have to run ahead or something like that and change the direction of you plan on switching lines.

N and OO gauge I can understand. Putting together a set and building all the scenery etc is enormous fun. Building a 5in loco from the machining point of view would also be a marvelous challenge. Riding on them though looks daft. A bit like seeing adults dressed as jockeys having races on hobby horses. Yes it is boys and their toys but count me out. If others want to do that then let them To each his own.
