Really enjoyed this video, especially the old stories and old footage. I wonder if station master John Harrison was a relative? My grandfather was Chief Inspector at Liverpool Exchange Station John Henry(Jack)Harrison, my dad Ken was a Porter and guard in the 1940s (and loved the Festy!). I worked as a volunteer at Bala with Dave Black in the 1990s to early 2000s learning to fire and drive dream and Diesel locos. One of my favourite locos to drive was LILLA when she was there in 1992

Love Garretts ❤️. My pops was a driver of 59 class Garrett.

Great video! Always good to see Fred, he was the one that started me volunteering with the Civil Engineering dept

Fantastic. Very proud of the fantastic achievements of all the generations of volunteers and staff. As a family we are on the third generation of volunteers.

Congratulations 🎉 and a big thankyou to all the volunteers, and in the words of Mr. Grace, you have all done well !. Regard Ray.

Any idea when K1 will be visiting the railway again? Still waiting to see it on the railway.

Very well done film. I'd like to know how to obtain reservations, perhaps for 2025. Very good of the National Model Railroad Association (NMRA) to present this in their June Turntable communication to members. Hope fellow members of the 009 Society have an opportunity to share this as well. A big thanks to all involved in the production, good show all👍🚂🚃

Does 134 have an ash pan sprinkler? Handy to assist with the avoidance of line side fires.

31:29 Bless you!

Splendid stuff as usual 🙂

Good video, like !!!

With this net zero, whereby they are determined to ban petrol and diesel cars and by the looks of things EVs not being successful we may see a return to railway travel throughout the country in the near future

134 looks good great job can't wait to see her run

Oh that NG15................WOW!!!!

Now for 133 😈

This the most amazing project I've seen in a long time! I can't wait to ride behind her!

Just awesome

Honestly like the white banding on 134 even if it's just tape to protect the banding

That NG15 locomotive looks great, so far, so good.

Regarding Mountaineer and speculation about when certain parts were fabricated, fixed etc. . . . Shouldn't each loco have some kind of service history documenting these things? Plus drawings, photos, video.

What is the utilitarian diesel seen at about 4:39?

Have an awesome first week of June!! 👌👌☺☺

very good talk about the cab controls

Another good video. Jon mentioned quite a few of your subcontractors and I did think that adding some clips in from their works e.g. casting Linda's cylinder blocks would provide some variety. I am sure that they would provide the footage for the publicity so it isn't as though you'd need to send a camera man.

Will the battery locos be redesigned like Vale of Ffestiniog was with a more conventional and appealing cab?

Being patially-sighted, I enjoy John's verbal narrative(and others). I am finding it more and more difficult to read sub-titles. Keep up the good work and thanks for a great update!

What's the plan for the battery locos? Maintenance locos?

Yet another glimpse as to the reasons why this subject is so popular! Everybody likes an inside look at the sheer amount of hard work that goes on behind the scenes of one of Wales' and the UK's premier narrow-gauge lines. Thanks, Jon.

great footage of two ladies trying their hand at driving a Quarry loco.

how many passenger cars can Lyd pull? I understand that the originals could mange eight

Please, please put her back in FR Green with Red lining? She looked superb in the 1980s in those colours. Everything seems to be shades of Maroon these days, all very nice, but The ALCO looked great in Green with her big Red nameplates! Excellent job so far, cant wait to see her running once more. You will probably finish her before I complete my 16mil model I started in the late 1980s

38:09 That is such an adorable bit of infrastructure, with the line going over the bridge around the loop under itself with the Welsh hills in the distance beyond.

Great video. Like me .

Great video! Only visited the VoR and FR in April and am already missing them. I wonder, when was the last time there were 5 locos at Rhiw Goch simultaneously?

Splendid stuff - as usual! I've still got loads of videos from the weekend to edit and upload to my channel; the first three are on, but not up to your standard of course.

Good video, like!!!

Very good - well worth a watch even without keeping up to date on what's happening. The advent of DIY aerial shots makes a big difference, as does the quality of image - even whilst in motion - from today's sensitive but portable cameras.

It's been my dream since I was little to visit these railways. I hope to do so soon.

I think this every time I watch one of these, but this time I'm going to say it: the quality of your videos is astonishing! There are broadcasters out there that could learn a thing or two. I'm dead impressed.

Excellent as always. The drone footage was stunning!

The sheer dedication surrounding this railway is exemplified by the work of the video team - in the past year or so, they have clearly been looking at how to raise their already impressive game and bring us new ways to tell the stories - the fact that all this solid footage has been assembled into such a pleasing whole in seemingly not much more than 72hrs speaks volumes - well done! \m/

We rode both your railways in 2019. It is delightful to view these videos from our home in Oregon, USA. Keep them coming as I know you will.

I think Google might have it wrong: it translates the Welsh name of Devil's Bridge as " a bridge on a monk"!!

VoR loco in black with lion & wheel crests and a carmine & cream rake; the other train in GWR colours: absolutely love it!

Fantastic video, definitely the best so far. Long shot down the cob was brilliant.

Always look forward to your updates. Thanks.
