Preserved Railway Narrow Gauge Freight

[@megamanx5760]

Its awsome to see these little guys doin they're business puffing up and down the line doing what they were made to do

[@TylerBenney]

Had this on in the background while doing stuff. Such lovely locos. Fantastic.

6:47 the green engine reminds me of Peter sam, and Edward Thomas.

Narrow gauge freight and an hour of it awsome

Best ASMR

[@I_like_planesandtrains860]

Totally agree

[@wazza33racer]

There is a similar tourist light gauge railway in Australia called the Pichi Richi...........at a place called Quorn. The cane tram rail system in north Queensland by comparison is very extensive and works in a commercial capacity, and is non-steam.

Beautiful!

[@Local_Gamer_kid]

Ik,r? 😉

[@richardjellis9186]

You should have put a label in the top corner of the screen, telling us which railway we were looking at each different clip.! Otherwise... Great video.!😁!.

[@gilbertlong183]

I quite agree - would have been helpful for me on a visit to UK in next few weeks.

[@effenbeezeetravel4474]

Thank you . I appreciate this video so much ! Because I dearly would like to see the narrow gauge trains in the U K . I have read about British steam trains since I was a kid but I do not have time to visit them in England so I will try to view some exported victorian steam next time I am in asia !

Great video :)

Queste locomotive sono dei veri propri gioielli molto interessanti ho molto gradito questo video

Già, è bello lo scartamento 600 mm. anche se in Italia ce n'erano solo 3/4 di ferrovie con questo scartamento (oggi tutte chiuse e demolite)

[@dacartrainguy]

Io vivo nel sud Italia, in Calabria, e proprio nel territorio del mio paese c'era una ferrovia del tipo Decauville, con lo scartamento a 600mm, e veniva utilizzata per il trasporto di tronchi dalle zone di taglio fino alle segherie dove venivano pre-lavorati e stoccati, per poi essere trasformati in traverse ferroviarie a scartamento ordinario

[@giacomomonti2240]

@@dacartrainguy Ferrovia San Paola - Lagonegro?

[@dacartrainguy]

@@giacomomonti2240 non esattamente: si tratta di una ferrovia industriale appartenuta alla ormai dismessa ditta boschiva tedesca Rüeping. La linea Paola - Lagonegro era si a scartamento ridotto, ma di 950mm, ed é di tipo "permanente", con massicciata e segnaletica. La peculiaritá delle ferrovie del tipo Decauville, con scartamento di 600mm, é che sono delle ferrovie prefabbricate in fabbrica, un po come i trenini giocattolo per intenderci. Le sezioni di binario erano giá preassemblate in fabbrica e venivano posizionate sul terreno battuto senza la necessitá di massicciata, e potevano essere montate e smontate velocemente, in base alle necessitá del cantiere. In questo caso, la linea ferroviaria poteva essere allungata a mano a mano che i lavori di taglio proseguivano all'interno del bosco, fino a dove era necessario arrivare. E questo tipo di ferrovie, per il fatto che erano di proprietá di industrie private, non avevano bisogno di segnaletica, perché, appunto, venivano utilizzate all'interno della zona industriale. La linea in questione partiva dal comune di Saracena, nella frazione di Zoccalia, ed arrivava nel comune di Spezzano Albanese, e prelevava i tronchi che scendevano dalle montagne tramite una teleferica, e la stessa linea ferroviaria era presente anche in montagna per portare i tronchi dai luoghi di taglio, fino alla stazione a monte della teleferica.

[@giacomomonti2240]

@@dacartrainguy Grazie della spiegazione, sapevo già la differenza tra ferrovia "normale" e decauville (è presente una anche dove abito io però è di neanche 1 km e serviva per collegare una piccola cava ad una ferrovia a scartamento standard)

[@tonyromano6220]

Amazing! UK does something right! This stuff is incredible! How does all this get paid for? Tourists? In the US the taxes on the land alone would kill railroads like this.

[@theautolad9507]

I believe it’s paid partly by the freight the move and some sort of heritage preservation group that the government pay for so they can keep awesome things like this alive 😄 :edit: they also run passenger trains so that will bring some more money in.

[@lincoln9996]

Most railways over here in the UK are funded entirely by the public, be it through ticket sales or donations. Almost none of these actually carry freight for commercial use, hense why all of the wagons in this video are empty. it's just every now and then they'll pull a train of wagons instead of coaches, as it's something you don't usually see. Hope this helped

[@theautolad9507]

@@lincoln9996 oh ok I didn’t know much about how they make money. Thanks

[@olachens]

there is the WW&F railway museum in Maine that you can volunteer at and ride on to travel between small towns, all authentic steam locos.

[@megamanx5760]

Actually I the us you probably could run something like this and keep it going

[@kineticrail]

Excellent as ever. I'm a sucker for some narrow gauge action especially the war department locos. I do like seeing Samson such a quirky little thing. Whats the next subject planned?

[@preservedrailway]

Thanks. Vintage Ffestiniog Freight next week, with some more narrow gauge stuff through September. New video tomorrow from todays The Lakelander with 45231.

by the way... the best vid ever! 😁😄😃😀😉🙂

[@themechbuilder6171]

1:51 those coal cars seen in the video they have a specific design? and what is that design called like?

[@secondvalveservices9856]

Those are general tipper wagons, they were mainly used on small building sites and areas lie, gravel quarry’s and sand quarry’s, they basically have a singular pivot point of which the wagon top moves, making it easier to tip whatever load is in the wagon out

[@donotwantahandle1111]

Ah the little trains that helped build Britain. 3:31 That has to be the smallest Garratt built!

Is this just for show or can you actually pay to have goods shipped by rail?

[@Local_Gamer_kid]

wait... is it called a garret or something else?

[@emil.honganmaki5461]

These small locomotives do not show fuel stores, what are they used to heat them?

[@jeanmeslier9491]

Fuel oil, like Diesel. Some probably have automatic feeders that feed sawdust, wood chips or coal.

Japan is the best example, they're loaded with narrow gauge!

Why pass ten box trucks on your way to work, instead of one narrow gauge train only if you get incredibly unlucky?
