Wow, Awdry's model railway still works?

[TheRobin53]

@SegaMario

Probably built to last.

I wonder why Sir Handel has Duncan's face at 0:14 ? Maybe Peter Sam behind him didn't have his own XD

RIP Reverened Wilbert Awdry, don't get writers as good as him or John Sullivan these days they should be taught to kinds in subject English at School

[BillingtonE2]

What type of model loco is the blue 0 6 0 that looks like thomas at 0:41?

[whitehousefilms]

@BillingtonE2 It's an old Stewart Reidpath model. Wilbert bought this one back in the late 40's or the NWR layout and still runs to this day. It had a repaint when it was in preservation and new lining and number 1.

[BillingtonE2]

@whitehousefilms Is it on sale?

[whitehousefilms]

@BillingtonE2 Not any more, the company discontinued I think in the 70's or 80's

[BillingtonE2]

@whitehousefilms I wish i had a engine like that!

[disneyrangerblue02]

TTTE has done wonders for the world but is a shame to think that only for it some of those steam engines would've been broken up :/ Don't get me wrong it's nice that it came to the rescue but I'm a bit mixed on relics being lost to time as I've been into railways for a good portion of my life; not just because of thomas :) Anyway cheers for sharing :D
