Hiya there, my names Mike & I recently had the pleasure of filming the arrival & installation of P 178 at its current resting place at the One:One Collection in Margate. With your agreeance, I would like to use some clips of footage from one of your videos to show her in her former glory, credit will of course be given as will a link to your video. Please let me know if this is ok. Many thanks, Mike.
All the more mind-boggling as there was literally nothing there other than a bastardised station building! Incredible. (I'm proud to be a member and supporter)
Quite a handsome cove naked, must say. Next time a U comes into service, I'd love to see at least a photo op without deflectors, in the style that the class began (we can forget the smoke box snifters).
Hi John, I didn't know Archie was being tested until I arrived at Kingscote on Wednesday morning. An engine I know nothing about but good to see it on the tracks again
If only there was some way to get the money out of Beeching's estate for that bridge. I heard that the heritage railway have now bought the trackbed which is good news. All we need now is for the cement firm to go bust then it's steam all the way to Haywards heath!
What a lovely line just for the smaller tanks. We totally enjoyed the shunting train stood in the guards van and this could be extended every year as more track is done. David and Lily. Reading.
Fabulous! Where did that miniature lever frame come from originally?
Super good Video! Thumbs Up!
Very nice, like.
Very beautiful landscape in combination with the historic train and the interesting drone views 👍
looks like diesel has been sent with the breakdown crane

yes that is perfectly OK
Thank you!
“Only” 115 years old. Looks much older because of the twiddly cab roof.
It’s a shame that the submitted plans won’t make use of the original station site, for obvious reasons of course
Completely agree!
Great video. Where is this filmed please?
Bluebell Railway

That 'box is an absolute joy.
Maybe electrified for preserved EMUs
Good to see Archie pulling carriages today John
Cathy absolutely right.
Wel done Bluebell restorers %( loking great again

Yikes, budget is getting pretty tight on the Bluebell Railway

The No.34059 (21C159) ‘Sir Archibald Sinclair’, alive’s again!
I was born in Horsted Keynes in 1953 and one of the neighbours was David Harwood, any relation?
Hi John, lovely day to be relaxing at Kingscote, enjoy the sunshine
absolutely Cathy
@@vortigern19 when are you back? Would love to chat
I love working at Kingscote best job I've ever done, out in the sticks and tranquility second to none
Dreadful trains, thankfully gone
Where abouts is this in realateion to the rest of the railway
Great overhead views of Kingscote Station John🙂 Really helps to show thr overall layout of The Station imo🙂
Must have missed you today John, bit too warm to be gardening but with a bit of a breeze it wasn't too bad
great video
Tremendous. Looks like they are all gone home for the weekend.
Seg railtour was 12th March 1988 - The Gyre & Gimble
My father was a goods guard 1935.56 in the brake van Went thru the war Also in home guard!
John, There are many local spellings for this area, but the one used on the Bluebell is the official railway one, Vaux End.
👍 Where can we buy these tracked dumpers?
You're a really useful railway.
There’s no sound
Very nice video thanks. Do you know what the purpose of the work is?
👍👍....
What is the work taking place?
The carriages and wagons that use to be on that siding where have they been moved to?
2 wagons have gone to West Hoathly for storage. Most of the carriages have moved north to behind the signal box and free space in the up yard.
@@mattlander9119 thank you
Train
Southeastern & Chatham Railway C class 0-6-0 locomotive
Interesting video John🙂 Many Thanks🙂
That bridge looks designed for two tracks so why only one?
I think it is to do with the weight plus it would cost more to lay and upkeep two tracks I imagine
If only there was some way to get the money out of Beeching's estate for that bridge. I heard that the heritage railway have now bought the trackbed which is good news. All we need now is for the cement firm to go bust then it's steam all the way to Haywards heath!
Tragic how it has to use a heritage line due to damned Beeching!
i like that gronk
If the public had have supported the railways more in the 1950s and 60s Instead of buying automobiles!
Great to hear audio on this. I presume this was done from the ground?
It was recording I made when travelling for SP to HK previously.
I would love to see the bridge being built over that road! 🙂
