Da kommen sofort wieder Kindheitserinnerungen hoch. Ich selber habe im Nachbarbetrieb solche Loks gefahren. Als Schuljunge seinerzeit mein erstes Geld verdient. Herrliche Zeit, man hatte noch Spaß an der Arbeit

Some of the smoothest, straightest tracks I have ever seen. Do they run high speed commuter trains over this outside of working hours? It's incredible the investment they've made in this rail line. Must run into the hundreds of dollars.

Einfach herrlich! Diese kleinen Lokomotiven! ❤ Und zum Schluss haben sie die Schiebelok vergessen. Sie eilt hinterher! Super ! 😅😅👍

As I explained in the comments the railway and ironworks has long gone. The system was reported out of use by 2033, and the locos had already been sold.

We actually now have a couple of hetitage tractors, but if we used them through the wet winter months for moving the muck back and forwards on a trailer, then it would make a real mess of the fields. This way there is no impact at all.

It seems to run very smooth! I’ve operated its little brother at a museum as a kid, I think it was a DL6. It had a gear lever instead of a wheel and going from 2nd to 3rd gear was pretty tough. You really had to listen to the engine and the gearbox to get it right… But this thing seems to operate much smoother, it looks great and it sounds awesome!

@gbrlk6532 2 жыл бұрын

Hello! Could you tell me, how this train works? I mean, the big wheel controls the gearbox, and it have [N, 1, 2, 3] speeds. But what is the control you switch at 0:59? There is a label on the gearbox is " Z<->V ". What you switch at 3:40? I would like to know these, because I working on a PC game and I would like to create a train similar to Diema DS 12. I hope you could answer my questions and thank you! Have a nice day!

@thomskutube 2 жыл бұрын

Gbrlk - the lever thrown at 0:59 is the direction lever, either forward or back (Vorwart oder Zuruck). The weighted lever on the back of the cab puts on the brakes. Hope that helps. Steve

What exactly did they used to mine here? Crystals? The little battery locomotive is cute.

@davidnightingale2260 3 жыл бұрын

They would evaporate water from a slurry to make crystals in big steel pans, then the chunks would be processed. The trucks would be tipped in to an elevator that would take the crystals to the top of the grading plant.

@philrobinson8168 19 күн бұрын

The factory outside the soda crystal plant (Wallerscote Works) produced soda ash (sodium carbonate) which is also called washing soda. The plant with the railway was producing the washing soda crystals in the evaporating tanks from soda ash solution, and once crystallised, the washing soda was "dug out" from the pans, crushed and sold in supermarkets in nice clean packets - a far cry from the rust and decay of the soda crystal plant at Winnington. I worked in the Research department just up the road from the plant and remember walking through the site to look at teh railway
