Great! Bassett was outstanding!

I recently acquired a Basset Lowke mogul in excellent shape, your videos are inspirational

[@mytinplaterailway]

Thank you. To be honest I don't have much competition! I wish there were more old school tinplate films on KZbin. I hope your Mogul runs well.

These British toy train videos are a joy to behold, coupled with soft piano music of course! Bassett-Lowke certainly were an outstanding model railway supplier. To say nothing about the live steam and miniature railway equipment they built.

[@mytinplaterailway]

Thank you. Yes they were. These are small scale compared with many of the trains - and ships - they built. Thank you for watching.

Sheer delight. A journey back to a time now becoming a distant memory. I enjoy your videos more than any others that regularly appear on this platform. I have to admit that I am not familiar with many of the names listed in the description except the 'big' ones, much to my chagrin. By the way...what was the music, Haydn, Clementi? I find that it is only my trains and classical music that keep me from going completely mad at the stupidity and insanity that currently surrounds us.

Hello, you are always very kind. Looking forward to seeing your latest film later this evening. I am a bit of a novice with the classic O gauge - and even more so the gauge 1. Many of these models are very rare, the O gauge BL Castle that's included is one of only two made. The music is free to use form the KZbin music library and should come up on the info bit - might not have been picked up by KZbin yet. It's by Joel Cummins, 'Sonatina No2 in F Major Allegro'. I think it's intended to sound like a famous composer. At these public events I think it's essential to add some music simply to hide peoples conversations. Largely for their privacy. Thank you again. Surprising how few people film these old tinplate events. And yes, I have stopped watching ( or listening to ) the news - I haven't turned the TV on since last July ...

@@mytinplaterailway You're welcome. Thanks for the update on the models and the music. I knew it wasn't Mozart so I guessed at Haydn/Clementi but I had the nagging thought there was a modernish feel to it. 👍.

@@mytinplaterailway Just a small correction, if I may. The 'Sonatina no 2 in F Major' is by Beethoven - the pianist is Joel Cummins. I remember playing this as a young boy in the very early 1960s, and hearing it again just now brought back several memories!! All good wishes, Peter A
