I was a bit of a late comer to the event, only arriving just before lunchtime but it was still an amazing day. The GWR king that was newly finished and was going round with a borrowed lms tender was an absolute beauty

[@Parsound]

Amazing day indeed Nicholas. Unfortunately I didn't capture a clip of KGV that I considered good enough to include but agree that it is a superb engine. Alan

[@TheMendipman]

What a great day out! Thanks Alan. Noel

[@Parsound]

My pleasure Noel, it was just like the old days by the main line, only busier! Regards Alan

[@thomasselby4661]

Very well done! Amazing clips

[@Parsound]

Thank you Thomas.

Alan, these days I generally shrink from the word 'amazing' but your use of it is refreshingly and entirely appropriate! A tremendous selection superb standard gauge models, beautifully maintained and turned out. Splendid captures and a mammoth editing task resulting in a really enjoyable video. My overall favourite without question is the GWR pannier tank, then multiple contenders for second place with the A4s and the Duchess at the top end. Thank you for the enjoyment of watching. Kind regards, Bob.

[@Parsound]

Thank you for your kind words Bob. It was so enjoyable watching train after train and wondering what was coming next...just like the old days! Had it not been for the cricket I would have gone back the following day. Kind regards Alan

[@charliestrains9826]

[@wooltman]

Just needed a Royal Scot,sadly we couldn't make it..Nice video Alan thanks for sharing.....Regards Chris

[@Parsound]

I was disappointed Chris, not half as much as you were of course, when Brian told me that the Scot wasn't coming. I hope that my video didn't exacerbate your own disappointment. Regards Alan

[@wooltman]

@@Parsound We are checking the rod this week so keep your fingers crossed for me that it's not cracked...See you next year we hope.....Regards Chris

[@Parsound]

@@wooltman I wasn't aware Chris of what the problem is but fingers are well and truly crossed. Regards Alan

[@chriscaplin9551]

Love it to bits! Big wow to grown up kids! Long live Meccano and all who came after.

[@Parsound]

I'm pleased to hear that Chris.

[@TheAndrewJBaker]

Was that an Ivatt Atlantic? 50 years ago I drove a 71/4 Henry Oakley on a private railway near Bedford, long gone. I was wondering what became of the locos.

[@Parsound]

Yes, it was.

[@TheAndrewJBaker]

Parsound the railway I helped build - but now long gone - belonged to John Crawley. It was a double track line round his Garden with sheds, turntable etc and several locos. I remember a Henry Oakley, the only one I drove in about 1970. I’d be interested to know what happened to it. At one point he planned to buy part of the Bedford Northampton line and run Sir Nigel Gresley on it. He had a huge archive of lner plans and other material. An odd man I feel.

[@allanegleston4931]

i wont even hazzard to guess on how much these models co$t. nice models all.

[@SYKAROST]

Alan, I'm interested to know how you managed to get all your 162 down to 72 but I can see why it took a while to produce as you grouped several loco clips which I know can be hard going. A great production and so glad you enjoyed your....... long but satisfying day!! Regards, Brian.

[@pizzamad3334]

How much do these cost?

[@terrier_productions]

Thousands.. I managed to get my 7 1/4” gauge electric locomotive for £1,000.. I’ve seen some go for well over £10,000

[@pauljohnson8341]

I want a ride

[@peterbuckley265]

WHERE IS THIS LINE, BUT ALAS NO LIST OF MINIATURE RAILWAYS NOR PUBLICITY, SO ONLY LOCALS ARE IN THE KNOW- OUT OF ORDER WITH THE USUAL LACK OF PUBLICITY RIFE IN THE UK. UPPER CASE DUE TO BLURRED DOUBLE VISION.

We also have a Facebook page, and recently an Instagram and Twitter page so if you are a user of any of those you should be able to find us. If you'd like to find more miniature railways, the 7 1/4" gauge society website has a list with locations and addresses. Hope this helps
