Glad you enjoyed. We had fun making it.

You are always so kind. I have the same amount of fun making both my caving and my Thomas the Tank Engine videos. 😁

I agree. I think you can see from the video that they both had enormous fun. They both are turning out to be very competent cavers.

Because, because, BECCAAUUUSSSEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😁

Thank you.

I vividly remember doing this for the first time. I was very nervous and very apprehensive. That was over 35 years ago!

@@CaverKeithwe had no knee or elbow pads so the hardness of the rock killed me. But a lot of our group wouldn’t go through that bit but proud I managed to do it. It was hard to breath after the exertion.

It's just a tiny bit cosy.

It's a very niche sport.

Thanks for the suggestion, but at almost £1200, I don't think I can afford it. Also my railway is a British railway so I'm afraid it wouldn't fit in.

😢

This echos most people's sentiment, but for those of us who 'do these caves so that you don't have to', we love it!

😢

Guess exploring caves isn't for you then?

Simple. It was to help him celebrate his 70th birthday. 😀

😀

Possibly.

A very sad tale.

It's a very popular place for adventure groups. I went with a Scouts group and visited all of the above places in the cave.

Would love to have visited both railways but neither were running during my short stay on the island.

I didn't know this! Thanks for pointing it out. I'm a fan of the original books and haven't followed any of the films or TV series. I can see why Castletown Station was used. It is a lovely location.

I've just had it explained to me why you have said this. I hadn't realised that Castletown Station is a location in Thomas and the Magic Railroad.

@@CaverKeith Yeah :)

I agree.

There’s really no need for such a puerile comment, and it’s not if I haven’t heard it hundreds of times.

@@CaverKeith sorry about that

You are too kind, sir.

It does seem like that.

Yes, it can.

@@CaverKeith cool, thanks

Thank you. As you know, half of the fun is in building a garden railway. 🙂

Thanks for watching. Yes, new discoveries are still being made. The longest cave in Wales wasn't entered until 1994. When I started caving most people still wore wetsuits, but in the early nineties people started wearing fleece onesies with either Cordura or PVC over-suits. This combination works in a similar way to wetsuits but is much more comfortable.

Thank you. 90% of the fun for me is in building a railway. I don't often ran trains unless I'm making videos. When people visit, it's nice when they spot little details like the refuges in the tunnel.

I was in hospital for three weeks followed by six months convalescing at home. I was caving again after this. However, it took about eighteen months to fully recover. I broke my pelvis, fractured my spine and damaged my urethra.

@@CaverKeith OMG! But good thing you’re still better.

@@thomastheconjunctionfriend7908 Yeah. Fully recovered now, thanks.

Thank you. I think it was a good decision too.

@@CaverKeith You’re Welcome!☺️☺️😊😊

I would love more G Scale Thomas characters. Unfortunately I do not have the skill to be able to convert other locos. 😕 I will just have to hope that Bachmann produce more G Scale Thomas locos. My wish list is Edward, Donald and Douglas, Duck and Oliver.

I was impressed too.

Thanks. I assume you are talking about Devious Diesel's Disaster? My voice actor let me down so I had to step in at short notice. 🤣
