Hey purple another fantastic video of Wellingborough Museums amazing model railway layout! I cannot wait for my visit in June and as I said hope to bring some locomotives that would've operated through Wellingborough back in the day. I hope your day has gone really well so far today!

Lovley to see! 1950s and 60s are definitely my favourite era to model. Maybe I should bring my Garrat down, see if I could run it on the layout.

[@PurpleandCoRailwayAdventures]

Please... pretty please with a cherry on top bring your Garrett. I have not got any vids of one working on the track. Legendddddd

I lived in Stamford in the 1950s and my favourite Sunday afternoon trainspotting cycle ride was to Wellingborough sheds, then getting the big Crosti freight engines for the coal trains. You can see one on the model railway which is top class. Those were the days when we thought all those lines in this part of the world would last for ever. Alas, by the 1960s the knives were out and we were well on our way to a car dependent society and the situation we find ourselves in now with climate change challenging our very existance as it is is already in many counrtries.

Have to wonder if an 08 hauling a passenger train would be accurate. Especially at that speed lol

[@Northerner_Transport_Hub]

Dosent have to be 100% accurate all the time 😂

[@simongurden9848]

Of course not! But there must be better things to haul a passenger train with don't you think. Enjoyable none the less 😉
