  • I always forget how small the quarry hunslets are since the 7 1/4" models are large. (That's from their scale I know, but I always think of them as bigger than what they really are...)

  • @DAKOTA56777 - I know what you mean - it's only when you get close up that you realise how small they are - particularly the Alice class.

    Cheers

  • Great video Chris. How much better does it get, you have two amazing Hunslet locos one of which is being driven by a lady who's surname is Bowman a legend in model steam locomotives!

  • @alspcs - Thanks for the comment - and you are right about the Bowman name - though I think these Bowmans (Bowmen?) are something of a legend in their own right! Incidentally, I do have a video of a Bowman 234 fitted with a Chuffer if you have a look back in my video list.

  • A fab production there Chris! A lovely little line that, I will have to visit one day! And they could not have better motive power! You can't beat Hunslet's, Love those engines!

  • @Firrboxfryup - Thanks Jamie - and it really is well worth a visit! Sadly that was the last day of the Summer operation or I would have been in there again today on my way back.....

  • Launceston is a great railway, love it. The owners are so friendly. In that last shot is looked as if there were more people on the footplate than in the train!

  • @DebenValleyLightRail - Yes Zach it is very special - and I think you might be right about that last shot! I kick myself now that I didn't make that trip to balance it up a bit ;-)

    Cheers

  • Wow, !!!! FANTASIC, " I love this in garden, !!!! great video as always Chris,

    this is a great engine, and I take my hat off to the builder, " A great restoration " thanks Roy

  • @DELTA1DSV - Thanks Roy - and yes I should like one of these in my garden too ;-) It is worth checking out their website - the Bowmans created this railway themselves!

    Cheers
