Correction at 2:20 the arrow has glitched!! It's on the West Coast of Wales, NOT Ireland!
Everyone's favourite place, the ‪@TalyllynRailway1865‬ in North Wales, the world's first preserved railway and inspiration for many of the Rev.W.Awdry's The Railway Series (and Thomas the tank engine) as this is the twin of the Skarloey Railway. Many of us know why the TR is so beloved, but I hope this video will let you find out more about the line itself.
They celebrate their Founder's Day on 14th May, so despite being a year later than scheduled, here is part one of probably a few Guide Rail instalments on The Railway with a Heart of Gold.

The Talyllyn Railway is one of history’s most important landmarks for railway restoration

Rail preservation wouldn't exist without it

Been there four years. Still learning about the place. Such a rich and fascinating history, it's such escapism from the fast moving world around us. Been looking forward to this one for a long while, it did not disappoint. Cheers man.

I don't think enough railway enthusiasts realize just how rough the north Welsh slate industry was, and how bereft its death and aftermath has left the region. It's something taken for granted, and there should be far more respect about it.

Although i struggle to not see the Skarloey when thinking of this railway (thomas brainrot) i understand a lot more about this line and its odd track gauge, well done again Max 👏

Nice work! I'd been looking for a video of this kind about the Talyllyn - very thorough, covering all key bullet points about the railway and its history. Some nice footage too. Perhaps I'll see you at Awdry Extravaganza III!

Is there an awdry extravaganza every year? We are planning to go next summer. We are in California, USA. Thanks.

@Terrier55Stepney Жыл бұрын

There isn't a guaranteed one every year, the railway will announce in good time when there will be one confirmed. Certainly talks of doing something for the Railway Series' 80th anniversary year.

Why does the engine whistle when it crosses the viaduct?

@Terrier55Stepney Жыл бұрын

It's to warn anyone before heading across the narrow viaduct and through the cutting just beyond. Also alerts anyone waiting for the train as you can't see it approaching on the platform. ALSO just for a friendly greeting to anyone walking below or on the bridge above.
