Springtime steam-up

A great day for steam. The R/H double Fairlie was being tried out after a repair and ran impeccably. My R/H Charles was being run with the new buffer beams I had made to fit my Finescale Engineering chopper couplings and the other two locos were an Accucraft W/L Earl and a R/H Vale of Rheidol loco.

Thought I would give my Genesis a run as hadn’t been steamed for months. It’s 29 years old and the erratic driving is down to me.

SMET open day steam-up 30th July 2023
Thanks for recording some of the action David. As I said on the day it was not the wettest Open Day at SMET that I've attended - however the drive home was certainly challenging!
At least the rain didn’t stop us from running 🚂🚂
Great running session, thank you.
@@geordieceltic2 glad you liked it 🚂🚂
Steam trains out and about in their natural habitat, the landscape and the weather. 😊
@@scottfw7169 thanks for your comments
Thanks for that Chris it was a smashing wee railway and we spent a good few hours at Bletchley Park a very interesting place
A nice visit video summary David. Not been back to this railway for many years. The parallel running with the Simplex's was a nice bonus (curious the drivers swapped ends for the return journey?). I did some written exams at Bletchley Park when I flew Airships at Cardington - managed to visit the code breaking museum.
i just aquired one of these wonderful locomotives, What sourt of run time should i expect? how offen should i top up the water as there is no sight glass? where can i get the wonderful slate wagons please.
@@grahamfordham4510 Just spoke to my mate who’s engine it is and he says he gets up to 35mins run time but he put a Goodal valve in his and runs it for 10 mins then tops the water up ok. He says the slate wagons are from North Pilton Works hope this helps.
@@dbeglin Thank you for taking the trouble to reply.have a wonderful day.
As usual, another good video record of the day David. And at least part of my collection attended - those 7/8ths coaches behind the Large Quarry Hunslet.
@@ChrisCairns59 Thanks Chris sorry to hear you’ve got Covid hopefully not for too long. Yes Dave told me they were your coaches they’re nice coaches and quite heavy and ran well. You missed a good day the weather couldn’t have been any better.
Thanks Dave I don’t hang about 😂😂
Wow, didn't take you long to post this 'Dave B DeMille' 🙂 A lovely day oot in the sunshine. Kathleen did a great job on the garden. Thanks for sharing
Nice, interesting lot of trains, cheers Fabrizio - like 18
Thanks for that glad you like them 👍
I always enjoy your videos🚂🚂🚂

Thanks for that the owner has had a few negative comments about it so glad you liked it
super fun
I really like the BR symbol on the blue loco. Very much the Vale of Rheidal style in the 1970's. Thank you.
Nice movie, cheers Fabrizio - like 3
Thank you! Cheers!
@@dbeglin
Sorry only Playmobile and pottery people were available
Oh, if only one of the characters from the Thomas & Friends franchise was there
The ground level filming is so realistic. Love the crossing shots at 1.1, so like Penrhyn on the FR. Thank you.
Thanks for your comments glad you liked it 👍
All part of the service Chris glad you liked it 🚂🚂
Brilliant David. Great video of my R/C Stirling running including the station stop.
Well done David. Going to send the URL to Peter for distribution to the Group?
Thanks Chris just needs a few tweaks here and there but should be ok
A great visual record of the running day David. Thanks for sharing it. The black Mamod is a Mamod Quarry locomotive, and the other black/red loco is a gas fired Peter Jones 'Dacre' built using several Roundhouse components.
Thanks for that Chris I’ve updated my descriptions glad you liked it 👍
Looks like both Bagnal and Betty had plenty of satisfied passengers. I like the locomotives' colors.
Thanks glad you liked it 🚂🚂
nice video enjoyed it
Thanks glad you liked it 🚂🚂
Nice to see Betty running. That’s a superb loco
Thanks for your comments it’s nice to just sit back and watch it running round the track as it’s manual control
Love that shot at (1:48). If u can add a whistle sound n chuffer, it'll add another dimension of happiness?
Thanks for your comments these locos have chuffers but the loco in question does not have a whistle ok
Excellent layout. Looks like it was fun running the trains all around it. Hopefully my setup will develop to this level some day.
Thanks for your comments glad you liked it 🚂🚂
A nice day,a great railway, and a gathering of friends to run trains with…🚂🚂👍👍
Yes it was hopefully will have a few more this year 🚂🚂
Very nice! Thanks for sharing. 😊
Glad you liked it thanks for watching 🚂🚂
Neato Mosquito!
That Fairlie fairly moves, dunnit? Likely to fly off the dock in Porthmadog!
I don’t think the owner was too bothered about the speed police watching he was more concerned about the loco running after his repair which it did 🚂🚂
live steam is hot
live steam is hot
Nothing better than running live steam in the garden 👍👍
Nice railway, I would like to know how you made all the small stone walls around the track.
Thanks for your nice comments if you you go on to dkl garden railway buildings website you can buy them here ok
Thanks
What a great looking railway. Nice video.
Thanks for that glad you liked it 🚂🚂
It’s too easy too be picky and critical, but the front lamp on Countess should be painted red. It’s a great railway and that Penrhyn lining on Charles is excellent 👍
Back seat driver ?
Most excellent! Can you tell me the radius of the curves at the bottom of the garden please? When I get round to constructing my garden layout, it will be a similar rectangle to yours.
Hi John it’s not my railway and it looks as though Ian who’s railway it is has made the curves himself. Peco do SM-32 set curves at 30 inch and 38 inch and you can also buy SM-32 flexible track and bend the track to suit your garden but the bigger the curve the better for the bigger locos but most loco can handle the 38 inch curves ok.
@@dbeglin Thanks very much dbeglin. That is useful information for me.
Excellent shot. Like😁🤩😄.
Thanks for your comments
Lovely layout / Gardening ❤
Thanks for your comments 👍
Great to see her running again David. A candidate for a Fosworks receiver?
Thanks Chris that’s an idea
I assume, like my Auric, the radio control is on the piston reverser, while the regulator is manual. I think if you have the regulator closed more, you’ll find she runs more smoothly.
On my Genesis it has a single channel control for speed and direction and the other channel is for the whistle so the speed and direction is very sensitive but it works ok
Pearse made some nice looking engines
Yes nice and chunky with good pulling power
The speed seems to be a bit erratic. I’m presuming that’s not deliberate driving?
No that was my fault I hadn’t driven it for a while and I kept pushing the radio control joystick the wrong way but hopefully you liked the footage.
a nice video to watch, lovely locomotives
Thanks glad you liked it 👍
Lovely garden railway you have there, thanks for sharing
Thanks for your comments glad you liked it
That’s a Friog or Essel Harlech Castle, well made models.
Your probably right I didn’t ask the owner before he left I will ask him the next time I see him 👍
Yes it is a Friog Harlech Castle (has a Bala Lake railway cardboard timetable covering the NiCad cells!).
