Legendary Trains in YORK - Is the National RAILWAY Museum Worth a Visit?

[@steve-marsh]

Great place Roger, cheers for a look around!

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Thanks, Steve. Think we need a National Ferry Museum for you! 😀

[@JettTyler17]

Not much of a train spotter or train geek, but after watching this video Roger, I'm certainly going to come and visit this place! You must love this museum as much as I love visiting the RAF Museum in London!

[@Alan.92n]

Great museum, Roger, a definite must when I visit York. The "Rocket" and the "Mallard" plus inside the "bullet" train the highlights. Nice one! 😊 👍

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Thanks Alan. Mallard is superb. 😀

Never get tired of visiting the National Railway Museum, do love visiting it, I'm coming back there in the winter times between November and December.

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Thanks. Enjoy your trip. I’ll definitely be back too!

I can vaguely remember being at the museum with my dad on the day the first 125 prototype was delivered, that was... erm... 48 years ago!

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Time flies! 😮 Thanks for watching.

Great video Roger..... I've visited the museum countless times however looking at your video...their has been a few new additions added..... I always like a Trip to York.😊Richard in Newcastle upon Tyne

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Cheers, Richard it’s such a great place.

Thanks for the video Roger. Must be 25 years since I last visited NRM with the boys. FYI the Alstom Eurostar set was specially constructed to cope with the UK's loading gauge hence it appears narrower than the TGV (on which it is based).

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Cheers, Alex. You must be due another visit! Maybe next year when theyr re-open the station platform area that's undergoing refurbishment!

[@AtlasBaudelaire]

ROG! Come to Severn Valley Railway we have a steam gala and diesel one on in the coming weeks! Would love to have you! :)

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Hey! Will definitely check that out. Thanks for watching and for the tip! 😀

[@cathybonner7888]

Hi Roger, I work at a heritage railway and am keen to travel to the NRM. Yes the modern engines don't have the character of the steam locos

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Hey Cathy - thanks for watching. It must be really interesting working for a heritage railway. I've only been to the Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway so far, but would love to go to more. 😀

[@cathybonner7888]

Hi Roger, I work on the Bluebell Railway here in Sussex, best job I've ever done! Plenty of banter and my colleagues are good company too.

[@RogEdwardsTV]

@cathybonner7888 I just looked that up on Google. Looks awesome.🤩

[@cathybonner7888]

@@RogEdwardsTV it is awesome especially when the bluebells are out and even more so at Christmas.

[@Schools925Cheltenham]

Cheltenham!!!! Hope to see it running at the MHR Again soon! I am aware though that it needs a extensive overhaul.

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Fingers crossed! 🤞

[@Schools925Cheltenham]

Whenever you go back to the NRM. Could you also do a bit about Cheltenham as in my opinion she is a very underrated engine!

[@craiglogistics2092]

Now that you have visited York Railway Museum will you be visiting any others like Barrow Hill and Shildon or maybe go down to Didcot

[@RogEdwardsTV]

Thanks, I’ll check those out for potential future trips! 😀

[@craiglogistics2092]

[@TheUncleGrant]

Thanks Rog. Great memories of my visit in 2019. I agree it's certainly worth a visit, it's a quick 5 minute walk for York Station. Allow yourself plenty of time to see the entire collection.😉🚂🚆

[@RogEdwardsTV]

There's so much to see. I was there nearly 4 hours and don't feel I did it justice. And that was with the Station wing closed for refurbishment. Thanks for watching.
