 Hello, thank you for joining me. I'm outside St. Peter and St. Paul's Church in Harlington in West London. I've just been inside the church. I had a look. It's really nice inside. I'm not going to do a video inside. I'm going to post some pictures on the Facebook page to have a look at them. The reason we've come to Harlington is because we're going to a miniature railway, the Harlington Locomotive Society Which is just up here now. This bit of road I'm walking on has a bit of a rural feel to it This is actually the old road because what happened was the M4 was put through just up there So the new road is just over behind this head which we shall come to in a minute So this would have been the old road from Harlington up to the railway station at Haystown, Harlington So we're now going to wander up here And we're going to go and find the Harlington Locomotive Society Which has been around since 1947 and today as it's almost Christmas now It's their mince pie run. So hopefully we're going to go and get a mince pie and have a Christmas trip on the miniature railway So my plan is to cross the road somewhere here. It's not too busy today. It's um, because it is a Sunday The road then we shall Make our way to the Locomotive Society. So this is the new bit of road. That's the old bit of road down there So there's a rural feeling. We've got a field here So you can see what I mean, although we're in suburban London, we're not in a really built up area of suburban London So the miniature railway isn't far now. It's just about 200 yards up here So we're about to cross the road. It was us talking. We're almost at the Harlington Locomotive Society now So what I'm looking for is I have been to this railway once before It's a really pleasant little railway in this fairly built up area It's um, it used to be an orchard. So they've built the railway around the orchard, which makes it quite a pleasant ride. So if we get here, look here we are Harlington Locomotive Society open this Sunday miniature steam train rides So there's loads of stuff here Talbusk or silhouette of a great western prairie locomotive. So here we are. Let's go and see now. So as we arrive into their car park, there's a lot of people here today. Let's hope we won't be able to get to see it I like this thing here because it's a race track. It effectively crosses like a fence. They've got swing bridge. So as you can see the bridge is currently in the closed position and it's interlocked with the signals So the train can't come through. So that allows some people to cross here. Once they swing this bridge back the gates will go down and down the train. So you see that, hopefully the train should come along and hear the steam so it must be coming to you. So the train goes off under the bridge. I'm going to take you over the bridge. We're going to go to the station and we're going to get kind of gone. An old signal, for real, right away. This is Fordham. Watch this train get passed. So as we come up to here, that is their station over there. Now here there's all these locos waiting on the shed to go out. There's um covo loco there, like Boko in Tom's tank engine. He was called Boko but the real one's called covos because they have six wheels and two wheels. We've got class 20. We've got class 31. And let's talk about something completely different, the South African loco. I'm coming to try and get a trip on that. I'm not sure how many trains are out. So there's at least three steam locos out here. You can just see the fare is pulled up there. So you get on the railway at this station and you get off just over there. So there's three steam locos out. So I think it's time I went and got my trip on the Harlington locomotive society's miniature railway. It takes another group of passengers for a trip around the railway. I think it's time for me to end my visit. It's been a very enjoyable afternoon here at the Harlington locomotive society's miniature railway. I've had three winning locos, South African loco over there being one of them. I had a great Western prairie and another little 060 tank engine. So I'm going to go back over. I like that footbridge. It gives a nice view of the railway. We're going to go out of here and I'm going to, I still think no. Every time I come over this bridge, I always wonder what the people, those houses think about having a little miniature railway at the bottom of their garden. I know if I lived there, I would be quite happy to have a model railway or miniature railway society as my next door neighbors. So I might just see over here one more train. I see one more train and it's time to go. So from the Harlington locomotive society, thank you very much for watching. I hope you enjoyed this video. If you're in West London, then do come and visit them. As you can see, buses pass the site. Do come visit them, have a ride. It's a really nice afternoon and thank you for watching.
