This is great!

Another great episode is it possible to join and lesson into the talks live?

This channel deserves more love

"I don't want to be a moving picture in a book", protested Bert.

I knew Ravenglass sounded familiar, its just been so long since I've seen the name.

Small Railway Engines

something i dont know think ive ever read or heard of thats been puzzling me for years, after Muriel became Irt was the radial articulation removed? does she still have it? or was it removed soon after?

Delighted to see these photos of Terry Whawell and Northern Chief.

I had a footplate ride on the triple header that PVZ refers to. We were just approaching the Warren when Pete said to me “This little engine’s working hard”, and we stood up and looked behind us. The other two drivers were roaring their heads off, neither loco was working and Sooty mimed throwing some coal forwards to help out.

Awesome 👌

Thanks for this. I was wondering what those ruins were and now I know.

Is the picture at 43:44 in the shed road next to the platform at Bure Valley shown in this clip a minute in kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4PYaGpjqL6alcU ? Looks like a slightly different track config but those things change over time and there can’t be many big flat blue background walls about?

Really enjoyed your very informative talk. Just in case anyone is interested there are 2 copies left of my art book at 78 Derngate. Thanks so much for showing my war book. All advertising greatly received. The designer of New Ways BLs second home in Northampton was Peter Behrens a German Architect. Once again great talk. Christine Sanderson

Love these talks! Hope you can keep them coming as they’re very much appreciated! Many thanks

Yes that's me at 23minutes

Thanks for posting

@21:49 That’s the Ōigawa Railway in Shizuoka Prefecture. Ernest was steam tested there before finishing its journey to the Shuzenji Romney Railway, which was its final resting place. @5:21

Thanks Stuart for posting these talks, I was unable to join in at the time as they were done on a Thursday night which is a volunteer night at aylsham. The photo of flower at 43.30 is indeed aylsham, the chap in orange is a young volunteer Chris gilham and the blue background is a grounded lorry body used as the oils and p.w.store.

Had a fantastic time on the railway with my fiancé Friday gone. Was made all the more enjoyable after watching these talks. Thanks for the brilliant info and a wonderful time!

These are great. Thanks for making this info available. Looking forward to our visit this year!

Could that unknown loco at 28:00 mins be from The Kirkstall Abbey light railway?

Thanks for putting these up, fascinating listening

Voices from the past are so evocative. I remember with gratitude that Douglas was very kind to me.

Gents, this and the loco exchanges really good stuff, thank you, Duncan

It'd be great to sit down with Peter van Zeller with a few albums of historic R&ER photos on hand and just listen to him run through them and talk the history of the line and recount his own memories.

For someone who's bee obsessed with the quirky history of the R&ER from the day I was able to begin reading about it these talks have been a wonderful find full of new revelations. Thank you for uploading!

A wonderful film with so much information about times past.

Out of curiosity what record did it break?
