 Hello, thank you for joining me. Today we're going to Miniature Railway number 5 on our list of all the Miniature Railways and it is the Woking Miniature Railway, also known as the Mizzans or Mizzans Miniature Railway and it is just here and I think I can actually see something over the hedge that looks quite exciting so here we are, we've arrived. Have a look out on the left, it looks like a full-size steam locomotive, it's a three foot six gauge South African steam locomotive built in Glasgow. We'll go out and have a look at that and then we'll go and have a look at the rest of the Miniature Railway and have a ride because it's come here a few years ago and it's quite an exciting place, quite an extensive railway. So here we are, we've arrived in my larder and the steam locomotive is just behind us. So as I said it's the South African Railways locomotive built to the their gauge of three foot six, it was actually built in Britain, built in Glasgow by Doobz. So if you have a look at it in front it appears to be a big loco but you might just be able to see the track is a bit narrower but actually what appears to be a section of British standard gauge track here, I'm not quite sure why. If we stand back here you can sort of see the difference in size between British standard gauge track and the South African three foot six narrow gauge track. See it's got a big light on the front, that's not really feature British locos tended to have. Now if we go a bit closer we can actually see there's a Doobz plate on it, it's got the diamond. If you see that diamond up there, if you ever see a loco of a diamond on it normally means it's built in Glasgow and this was actually built in 1899 so it's over a hundred years old. It was built to works number 3819. It's um it's also got quite unusual wheel arrangement. We stand back a bit we can see it's a 482 so that's I don't think there's any British steam locos with that wheel arrangement so that's really quite a nice introduction. So you arrive at the miniature railway, you park your car over there, most of you probably don't have a larder but you're part of a car, you drive there, you've got a steam locomotive there and if we walk across this field or do you see something else quite unusual. This is before we even got to the miniature railway, I mean it's almost easy to think we're at some kind of um open air railway museum at the moment because we haven't yet actually seen any miniature trains but I promise you we've got a very exciting extensive miniature railway to go and have a look at. So the next thing of interest that's not actually miniature um but appears to be here is this here. It appears to be a sculpture of a steam locomotive, a two-foot gauge, it looks a bit like a badgin' old steam locomotive but it's not a real steam locomotive. I'm not quite sure it's significant so anyone knows how and why that got here um you're more than welcome to comment tell me. Now we're going to follow the path down here and it's becoming quite amusing this still no miniature but here's some standard gauge rolling stock in the form of a southern region electric multiple unit carriage. Now I remember these as a child when we were going down to Eastbourne on one so um that's quite exciting and I think if we get up here onto the bridge we might actually see a train on the miniature railway. There we go so look down there there's a train coming it's going through there into their station so it's really quite um an exciting extensive miniature railway because they've got effectively I think they've got like a big double track main line going around there they've got a loop off around there and they've also got an inner loop I'm not sure if that's running today so let's have another look at the electric multiple unit because as soon as I saw it I heard the train I wanted to go and see that so let's have a closer look so as I said I remember traveling on these down to Eastbourne as a child and that's the carriage number the actual set number is up there I don't know if you can see it but it is number 3568 so the driver would have sat in the front there um you can see it's um for those you don't know too much about furd rail etc that is it's um shoe it's furd rail shoe and they've actually even put a piece of furd rail track so that's how it would have picked up its electricity from the juice rail as it's known it's one of these ones it's got um open carriages in it's got some first class compartments I remember sitting in one of them and there used to be one standard class if I remember rightly I remember sitting in the standard class compartment and traveling down to Eastbourne so that's their station building but now I think let's go for riding the trains we go down here um actually I think this is their departure um their rivals platform in order to catch a train I've got to go over there but one other thing while we're here I do like how they've actually got real platform edgestones so I'm going to go and get on the train so let's enjoy the ride
