Wow what it must have been like to be a young boy working on that railroad! I drove tractors small Massy's or Farmall's working in tobacco when I was young and enjoyed it.. as a job. Trains were my life, this would have been a dream!
I remember riding on the 63 coach end of gala special. It was a VERY rapid departure from New Romney when a coupling failed and the front 8 coaches shot off like a bullet under Littlestone Road bridge before the drivers managed to stop! They backed up and reconnected to take the rest of the train with them on the 2nd attempt. A brilliant run then via Dungeness and back to Hythe. Many good memories in that video.
Hello, I remember an old friend had bought a property in W Sussex some good years ago 15 + does anyone know where the minature railway was. The film looks sixties to myself.
This is the now named Synolda which still steams and can be found in the museum at the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway in Cumbria. She's fully restored.
Correction, the line actually still exists. IT is owned by my grandparents and has had a lot of improvements to it. Sadly no steam engine, however plenty of diesels and the original electric seen in the other video.

I have the DORLING KINDERSLEY DK EYEWITNESS GUIDES Book of TRAIN. Discover the story of railways - from the days of steam to the high - speed, sophisticated trains of today. In association with THE NATIONAL RAILWAY.
I particularly favour the 10+1/4" gauge as being ideal as a comfortably sized passenger rider without being over bulky nor too compilcated, each to their own preference I guess! Such a variety of miniature gauges being available to choose from is certainly impressive. A well put together video, top marks.😊
Such a lovely railway and lovely film! What kind of speeds they get up to? Looks like a fair rate of knots, scale makes it hard! I get scared at like 10mph on 7 1/4" stuff because it does feel a lot faster!
Lovely stuff, seeing Heywood in his old original red livery suprised me. Never seen any footage other than rare photos of my favourite 7 1/4 locomotive before her Eastleigh debut!
That is so adorable at 27:00, that family that each went to different spots along the railway to simulate stops on the line. Just for the video! How sweet! I bet that railroad- and the kind of people who love them- have made that a healthy, fun family. Good on them.
@@jakeandfriends3554 It's still undergoing the rebuild. The major delay has been the delivery of a new boiler - the old one having been subjected to a lot of wastage especially at the bottom of the barrel. I hope to be able to get over and see it again soon so will post an update video when I do.
@@jakeandfriends3554 The railway and some of the stock has been sold to the farm owner recently. I'm not sure what is happening with the remainder of the stock although I know that the Barlow/Lakeside stuff is remaining in one place as a collection rather than being sold off.
@@DerekSmith1949 are thats good would be nice if the barlows went to saltburn for a bit as that would mean all the barlows are in once place is there any info on city of london the black 5 out line and batterson as i was following them but but when dead at windmill again same with the 52 however im guessing thats with the lakeside stock
Hercules wasn't available and it was too dull a red. With Samson nearing its overhaul it was easier to paint bits of it red than to do a proper job on Hercules,
@@DerekSmith1949 ah ok thanks Derek. I remember buying a ticket on Hercules in 1981. Both that one and Northern Chief has not long come back from overhaul and they were still being worked back in
