Fantastic seeing farther & son bonding together 👍🏻 Bongo looked really well running round the track 🤩

Thanks 👍Yes, it is one of the great benefits of a small railway or workshop - You just have to get the youngsters off their screens!! Thanks for watching! Best wishes, Chris. PS. If you would like to know about the books I write to teach children (age 3 to 90!) about railways, science and engineering, there’s lots of info here: petersrailway.com/ The youngest books are the four "Little" PR, probably age around 3 to 6 years...

Glad you enjoyed the film, this morning we had snow, but remained cloudy so not much point in filming a shot to add to this film. Thanks for watching! Best wishes, Chris. PS.

Thanks for the comment!! Yes, I will have to make lots more videos - it's a bit cold outside at the moment, though. Plenty of ideas, but looking forward to some pleasant weather to shoot them!!... All best, Chris.

Excellent! I dont think i will get away with a steam powered christmas tree, mine runs on magic lol

@PetersRailway 9 месяцев назад

That is a good point! However, unless your electricity comes from Solar or wind power, then most of it is still probably generated by a steam turbine... All best, Chris.

Could you please make a video were you drive around your railway, filming the whole thing?

@PetersRailway 9 месяцев назад

That is an excellent idea, and I will try to film that in the spring. I also want to make a video about all the controls and how you drive the engine. Thanks for watching! Best wishes, Chris. PS.

what is the scale size of your train?

@PetersRailway 9 месяцев назад

Hi, the railway is 1/8 full size, so the gauge of the track is 7.25". Thanks for watching! Best wishes, Chris. PS. If you would like to know about the books I write to teach children (age 3 to 90!) about railways, science and engineering, there’s lots of info here: petersrailway.com/
