Fascinating and gently funny thanks for making this. The views from behind the loco were quite serene in their way.

I think you could describe Tom Rolt as an 'engineer' having worked at Kerr Stuarts, installing an engine into the narrowboat Cressy, racing a 12/50 Alvis and then working at Rolls Royce on the Merlin engine. Of course it was their enthusiasm that meant that Talyllyn, and by example a good many other railway lines, is alive and well today.

@@TalyllynRailway1865 I thought it was nice how you recreated the last train at the end of 2020 that ran at the end of 1950 before the restoration of the Talyllyn railway began in 1951. had the railway run out of coal by this time or was there some left at Pendre?

I never thought of using a plastic pipe as a resonator for my microphone. Did it improve your overall sound? Up and down the tube would be about 16 feet so that would be about equal to a 16 foot pitch on a pipe organ stop. Brilliant!

It's a simple bit of water pipe so we can socially distance when interviewing! Low tech, low cost!

@@TalyllynRailway1865 do you think they may have used up the last remaing stock of steam coal by then or is it at all possible that the TRPS member may have brought a few bags of coal over with him 70 years ago?

when they ran the last train before preservation did they use the last of the coal to steam Doloch or did the late Mr John Wilkins pay for some more so that he could see what the track was like or had the Talyllyn railway run out of coal by then?

when they ran the last train by the old company did they use the last of the remaining coal to steam Dolgoch? or did the TRPS buy some more so that they could do a inspection trip up the line?

There wasn’t an old and a new company. It was the same company, now supported by the preservation society.

@@davidfuller1038 i am deeply sorry about that mistake. when the railway ran its last train before Preservation did they use the last of the coal that was left to steam Dolgoch or had the Talyllyn railway run out of coal by then or did the newly formed Preservation Society pay for some more so they could see what the track was like? i have my own copy of Railway adventure and i have learned a lot about the railway. but there's not much information about how they how much coal they had left before the Preservation society took over or how much the Preservation society paid for their coal during the 1951 season? i would be greatful for some more information on this subject.
