    In 1962 Thornaby had a fleet of 183 steam engines on the books + a couple of dozen diesels (in service) - and a couple of dozen additional diesels (ordered but not yet delivered).

    Wouldn't it be wonderful, just for once, that we could get commentary that a) doesn't sound like an utter that from a bygone era but more importantly b) can actually pronounce ANY of the place names. If this guy could get it wrong, he did! Banavie not Bana vie CorpaCH not Corpak Locheil not Lochale Arisaig not Ari Zaig Mallaig not Ma laig It's not difficult.

    I am a little late commenting on this but as a matter of record I am a Hayling Island lad and lived in the first house over the bridge from Havant. As a lad I could see the old Billy going by from my bedroom window, my playground was underneath the central turntable on the bridge across the langstone harbour crossing, when the train went over, ended up with hair full of rust that dropped from above. When Beecham closed the line it was stated the bridge was weak and could not be repaired so they cut all the timber baulks off the top of the bridge and asked the Royal Navy to blow up the concrete piers below to provide seagoing navigation. On the day of the demolition we were all advised to open our windows and doors prior to the explosion, then at the alotted time there was the biggest bang and shock wave you can imagine, result? Well you can still see those concrete piers still standing today, not a scratch on em! Never trust a bluddy expert.

    I love how the E2 is technically the most recognized steam locomotive in the world, yet when these things were in service barely anyone paid attention to them.

  • @JRS06
    @JRS06 Місяць тому

    It's been said before, but I do wish an E2 was preserved. The fact they're the basis for Thomas aside, they were elegantly designed locomotives, and had a surprisingly long and productive career. Whilst not the most amazing or well-performing locomotives ever made, the E2s found good use as shunters and were clearly quite helpful in some scenarios.

    I visited the area in 1957 and 1958 on cycling/hosteling holidays. We left our bikes at Welsh Bicknor Youth Hostel and walked, returning by train As the film shows the auto-train "pushed" from Ross to Monmouth but it was only a single carriage. An extra one had been added for the enthusiasts. Later we were charmed by this train; one departure from Momoutn at 18.05 we called the "Six-Five Special" - Six-Five Special was the BBC's first attempt at a rock-and-roll programme, launched in February 1957. Its title was derived from its broadcast time, as it aired at 6:05 on Saturday evening. However, the first time we saw it emerging from the tunnel at Symonds Yat we were delighted; We cried "It's one of the new diesels," then as the locomotive end appeared, "Oh it's just a steam train." Most trains in those days were steam hauled. .

    What nostalgia. Never thought I would see an excerpt of 'Railway Roundabout' again. Some of my earliest TV memories were of this programme and it's just as I remember it: grainy black & white film with a 'received English' commentator. It was still great though.
