You have done what most us would hardly dare dream of doing and you are willing to share it with us. Thank you Ian for creating such a delightful railway.

Wonderful stuff! Such an imaginative railway. Those are some very tight radius turns, and derailments don't seem to be a problem. Thank you for sharing it!

@Elvinley 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks Stan! There are occasional derailments but there is always a reason such as uneven track or leaning back too far on the loco. Generally the stock copes very well with the curves.

Another lovely video. You've done a lot of work around the railway since the last video I saw. It looks like a lot of slate stacking work there.

@Elvinley 2 жыл бұрын

Indeed! So much slate-had to put it somewhere so made a feature of it. Thanks again for watching and commenting!

This looks like an amazing bit of British exxentricity - just marvellous! When can we have a cabin ride round the whole track? or is it about to come - I'm not at the end of the video yet. Thanks. Tom (from France)

Hi Tom, On some previous vids I did the whole line but will probably do it again at some point!

@Elvinley 2 жыл бұрын

I have just uploaded a new vid with lots of footage taken with my Go Pro attached to the loco.

@Elvinley ...Now I know why you put a sign up that says "dead slow" ... lol !!! The train entered the curve at a pretty high speed and the driver did not exactly help keeping the weight low...lol. Thanks for the link!
