You could see that you made those old boys day and see how happy they were that young people still show a genuine interest in the bygone steam era. 👍

[@matildariverwaldennews]

I hope I did 😅❤😊

[@peterparsons3297]

hundreds of tons of dancing metal, the pride and skill they had in those days never stops amazing me

[@matildariverwaldennews]

Yes they certainly did an outstanding job 😊

[@johnl1685]

Wow!! Who were the mad geniuses that built things like this??!!. Matilda is the coolest girl in the world for appreciating this stuff!

[@matildariverwaldennews]

I cannot imagine to think how intelligent they were 😊

[@pasha12343]

Incredible machine 👍🙂

Isn’t it just 😊

[@TR1L.16]

Amazing,thankyou for taking us along Matilda. Really enjoyed these. 👍x

Brilliant Thank You 😊

Delightful documentary on this incredible machine. You are a broadcaster!

[@matildariverwaldennews]

Thanks Simon 😊

[@monza1002000]

Love it! Use a small engine to start a bigger engine. The mind boggles at the size of these amazing machines. Thank you😊

[@matildariverwaldennews]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@piers995]

I like that they have to use a steam engine to start each of the main engines. They are truly gargantuan!! Thanks for showing this.

[@matildariverwaldennews]

You’re welcome thanks for watching 😊

[@RileysRamblesCentral]

Wow what a beast of a machine. Thanks for showing us around Matilda 👍😀

Incredible engineering from almost 100 years ago! I never knew it existed. What clever people our ancestors were. Thanks for posting the video.

[@matildariverwaldennews]

I know it’s amazing thanks for watching 👍😊👍

[@robinclayton8284]

We need young enthusiasts to take on the mantle and keep our engineering history preserved , maintained and operational..

[@matildariverwaldennews]

There are a few of us about 😊

[@golden.lights.twinkle2329]

Yes, all the volunteers look to be in their 60s or 70s.

[@rosewood1]

A marvellous steam Cathedral a tribute to the magnificence of the Industrial Revolution and British quality engineering. Acolytes welcome. Great movie clip Matilda. A vast beast moving with precision grace and raw power.

[@matildariverwaldennews]

It definitely is quite breath taking, thanks so much for watching 😊

[@rosewood1]

@@matildariverwaldennews and you got to be chief engineer and tame the beast! I grew up with mechano and a mamod steam engine which i promptly mechanized building steam powered vehicles and other stuff. Today it's classic cars. Real steam is a bit too difficult for this amateur engineer!

[@matildariverwaldennews]

@@rosewood1 😂😍

[@andy2950]

Amazing. To think the many tonnes of iron and steel moving with such precision. And all from the power of a giant kettle 😊.

[@matildariverwaldennews]

Yes imagine the power a normal household kettle produces, imagine blocking the steam outlet off, that’s powerful enough, but this beast ………… 😱

[@Wheels-Wheels-Wheels]

Have just watched parts one and two. Thoroughly enjoyed both and well done on creating such interesting and informative coverage of this wonderful installation.

[@matildariverwaldennews]

Brilliant glad you liked them 😊

[@fredMplanenut]

Excellent Matilda, again. When they built this it was too large for the railways to cope transporting those weights, so it had to be in sections and assembled on site. They do intend restoring more of the light railway. Great access for you and the staff obviously inspired by your enthusiasm were so helpful. Great camera work again. (Kempton is very close to my home)

[@matildariverwaldennews]

I have a vid coming out soon on the railway, glad you enjoyed this one 😊

[@thomasdecker7631]

Thank you very much for posting. I had been aware of Kempton, but your video of the operation was outstanding and very informative. From an ocean away in the U.S., your look at Kempton is very much appreciated.

Brilliant, glad you enjoyed the vid 😊

You put me to shame Matilda, i used to pass it every day to work, and i still live only 15mins away and never been to see those lovely engines, well done you . Clive

[@matildariverwaldennews]

You must go Clive it’s awesome 😊

Thank you Matilda. I learnt a lot from your vid and you made me smile too! Brilliant post.

I learnt a lot from going, 😊. Thanks so much for watching 😊

[@davevan8864]

What a fantastic place!!!! It's hard to believe how close the public is permitted to the running machine. If it was here in America the public would be in a different building watching on a TV!!!! Congrats to the Brits for keeping history alive!!! Thanks

[@matildariverwaldennews]

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhj 😂 Health & Safety is a night mare over here also, we have become where there is a blame there is a claim culture, we are not allowed accidents anymore 😡 it’s like people can be as irresponsible as they choose and it’s always someone else’s fault 😡

Dangerous to be wandering about that machine with long flowing hair.

[@kevinhaigh3962]

🎉Absolutely awesome the size of these engines pure skills in making them keeping them running and it's brilliant that volunteers are operating them, can you imagine the time and effort building these things from the very first piece to the last piece being put together, and many years ago it would have been a lot harder making this I'm totally in ore of the skills involved, well thanks again matilda and mum for your post and take care and be happy 🎉🎉

[@matildariverwaldennews]

I wouldn’t even know where to start, the people who built it are amazing ❤

[@golden.lights.twinkle2329]

No computers or internet to help them back in those days. Everything designed and drawn on paper and them machined or cast in whatever metal suited the particular part.

[@matildariverwaldennews]

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 yes They really we’re craftsmen, absolutely amazing, I think there are pros and cons to computers it’s made some lazy and even made some designs worse, but for people like me I could never have got my name out without been at the mercy and control of mainstream media if at all!

[@andrewofford1533]

I am one of those lucky ones, to see these running in Anger, Pumping Treated Water to London, when it was still Steam.

[@matildariverwaldennews]

Must have been a great experience 😊

[@andrewofford1533]

It was. I was 6 at the time and was Visting my Grandfather who was working on Shift there at the time. It was the late '60s early '70s.@@matildariverwaldennews

Fantastic fantastic video of an unbelievably wonderful machine. I could go on and on!!! I’d be just as excited and happy as you are! My ‘day job’ is an orchestral french horn player. I would absolutely LOVE to play some massively loud piece, Wagner probably, in that space! Beats the opera house hands down

Yeah home educated, I’m so glad I wasn’t in the system, it sucks the life out of you and forms you into what they believe you should be 🤗 my mum said she only started learning after she left school, she’s worked all her life and supported us 🤣
