Nice vintage footage Chris , shame the Railways closed that large bridge was very impressive nice locos including that Brit ! best wishes Graham

[@wooltman]

Thanks Graham.It's nice to look back on happy times.So nice also to be able to share some of my old videos that have been hiding away for so long.Not the best quality but well worth looking at for the content......Best wishes Chris

[@billycankay]

Nice idea to show these now closed railways, a shame no more especially Pentney of course :-( (and oh dear l spotted numpty self too!). Take care both, Kay xx

[@wooltman]

Lovely memories of a lot of tracks but none more than Pentney....You had a staring roll behind Chuffer!..I think I could make a part two if I dug deep into my collection,Evers old track would be one...Keep watching......Regards Chris

[@billycankay]

@@wooltman oo but you would have several of Evergreens at old home at Stickney... I don't know how you would choose! 🙂

[@robmasterman]

A wonderful video Chris, and lovely to look back on these old Railways, still great quality for the VHS material...Best Wishes....Bob

[@wooltman]

It really is Bob,we have found so many taken over the years..I'm very pleased with the way they turned out....Just finishing off my series of Closed M.R's at the minute.Shame we never ever got to Dodwalls,that would have been nice......Stay safe....We could get down your way later in the year.....Best wishes Chris

As a former Pentney Park volunteer in the early 2000's this was lovely to see! Some familiar faces! A shame it's all gone now. Coming back to Norfolk to visit family I still look in when I'm passing on the A47 out of habit!

[@wooltman]

It's really changed now,not sure when you visited last,but you could get a shock if you do...We don't know where Brian and Hilary live now so we couldn't visit..Cheers Chris

[@samgowler]

Dunhams wood is still open and running

[@wooltman]

Yes I did know that, Sam. Thanks I had forgotten to amend this video or even put a note on the write up. Might even get another visit on the 1st of the month.

Heritage Railway (Mag') reported about six years ago that there was only one Garden Centre railway left ...can't remember where sorry!!!

[@wooltman]

I'm not sure they got that right Mark...I can think of three now,one very near you..The Downs L.R is in a G.C at Pulborough.One at a G.C near Harlow,the Popular M.R is in a G.C as well,I can think of another two as well.....Hope your keeping well?....Regards Chris

nice video there was a k2 in there wich at my local club weve got the sister of it but in LNER apple green LOCH RANOCH as the builder built 3

[@wooltman]

What club is that? Was that in 7 1/4 too? If your building one you might as well build three,sell the others to pay for the builds....Regards Chris

Some nice miniature railways there, at least the Fenland Railway has moved to another site which actually seems better to me. The Postland G. C. railway, looked like quite a lot of money was spent, particularly the large bridge, why didn't that last I wonder.... The Pentney Railway is a big loss, your videos show that, did the group that ran it find another place to set it up.

[@wooltman]

Pentney park railway was owned by the caravan park owner,he sold the whole site to a new developer who didn't want the railway,so it was all sold off..So sad,we loved it.

[@ThatCoalSoul]

9:37 I have never seen a train-departure area like that before with tram tracks in bricks, very interesting.

[@wooltman]

The owner of the railway or the G.C paid out a lot of money on this railway didn't they.

[@ThatCoalSoul]

Oooh, I can feel a Mull Rail snippet coming in part 2!

[@wooltman]

We didn't manage to get to the Mull before it closed.

[@ThatCoalSoul]

@@wooltman Oh that is a shame! Miniature railway closures are rare though.
