GCLR Episode 23 - Engineering Work Preparations
Welcome to another episode in the life and times but also the people of the GCLR.
Engineering Work is taking place after the Bank Holiday, and we see here the preparations being made for the work, with a Fika moment, a quantity of Alka Seltzer, and some heavy equipment being bought in ready for the work.
You will see some strange words used which are Railway Codes, so for non railway viewers a quick explanation.
Until the invention of Fax machines and the Internet, the railways used a vital Telegraph Network to connect control rooms, signal boxes, stations together to convey important messages, with were sent at speed and provided clarity and instructions. A lot of code words were used to reduce sentences into a word, here are a few examples.
BOYNE There is no water at the following station. Instruct drivers. (Used for Steam Engines)
CABBAGE Do you agree to following?
CAWSTAB Should the load require to be recessed, great care must be taken to ensure that the load will clear structures and traffic on adjacent tracks.
OPPOS Opposite line to be blocked between the following places.
WALNUT Make all necessary arrangements, as far as you are concerned
REDE Arrange and advise all concerned.
There are many many many more and a fascinating subject just on its own, and some of the messages once sent were a work of art in themselves.
Back to the GCLR, we have received some good feedback on previous episodes, and have acted on that with some changes in this videos to how the story is presented, hopefully making it easier to read.
Next time you will see and hear about the engineering work taking place, and how it all came about, its exciting!
As ever these videos made by us are about making people smile, but also learning how videos are made. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do making them, and please let us know your thoughts in the comments
Thanks for watching and we hope to see you next time.

    The FeckHallBahn’s management have agreed this. Where a guard is visible to signallers AND in the rearmost vehicle of a consist that there is no need for a tail light (daylight working only). Fika and cinnamon buns. You’re making me nostalgic for my days in Sweden!

      Thanks Nigel I like that rule, and have proposed to the Safety Inspector we include that in the next Rule Book update. In this episode even the guard was missing as well so will have to ensure I recruit a new one from next exhibition. I think you should go get some nice cinnamon buns, and have a Fika moment on your bench, one late summer/early autumn morning and watch the milk train do its run, and relive those Sweden times.

But another little joy of mine, that's currently side lined due to lack of time and space, is model making! I love a good Tank kit, where I can get crazy with the weathering, or equally love a good race car kit where I can pick out details and upscale to make more realistic. So I absolutely appreciate the work that goes into keeping any sort of model railway running, let alone an outdoor set up!

      Thanks Nigel, Those levels are made for the job I reckon, perfect for garden railways. my track is far from perfect, but its helped work out the rough spots I can see how you miss Fika, Its been a good many years since I last went to Göteburg, I was in Denmark a few weeks ago, and my train from Kobehavn was direct to Götenburg, but I was only popping over the bridge to Malmö

      Thank You, that is a appreciated, they have worked hard, the railway runs better over that section now, and the General Manager treated them all to an Ice Cream, White Magnums of course.

      Thanks, I used a Bullseye Bubble spirit level from that ever so famous online retailer, and attached to a flat wagon, it helps just see how track is aligned. Mine is far from perfect, but helped me iron out known trouble spots.

      Thank You very much, once we get the autumn here, we will show the glow from the fire, and get some crumpets too! For now we are enjoying the warmer weather and sunshine.

      Thank You very much, its a lovely railway, right at the top of the Welsh valleys, right on top of the hill. The Officers coach was just wonderful, but the whole railway was superb.

    Looking very green and the purple flower s a type of violet I think lovely to see a special train ,but sadly only spotted Uncle Fester,see the love birds romance is progressing,but feel Nervous Nancy shouldn’t hang around the boys so much needs some girlfriends too ,don’t want to get a reputation?😇😇😇…….. great video 😊😊

      The special train is rare to see now, so good it came for a visit. Nervous Nancy, I hope she does not get a reputation, perhaps its just friends with Jonesy, after his help last week. She does need new company, we will have to see what happens over the summer..........

    Never thought as what I call modern trains “ retiring “ where😊😊 do they go ? Train grave yard or sold on ? This design is modern to my way of thinking. When train had separate carriages that my first memory of trains in the 1960s did these types of trains pull them back in the day or was it only steam ??

      Interesting comment, these trains transformed UK train travel, in that it was faster than anything else in use at that time, and made train operations easier. Many have gone to be cut up and made into razor blades, BUT a number have been exported to Mexico, and Nigeria, and now transforming their railways.
