    I am surprised that, unlike other UA-cam channels, you do not include links with each video description such as your website, a PayPal, Kofi or Patreon link and so on. I know you link to your website in your About section - but how many people look at that? I also know you link in the description to your "Become A Friend Of Pendon Museum" site. However, that implies a level of commitment that might not appeal to a casual visitor. Direct links in every video description might bring in additional revenue as some people who cannot visit you in person might well want to send a donation your way to support you. Even with the processor fees, getting something of something has to be better than getting all of nothing! If you go down this route, add the information retrospectively to your already published videos as well. You never know when people will find you.

    I remember unloading parcels (some very heavy) on the up slow platform at Watford Jct. just before the early morning rush of passenger trains to Euston. We worked so fast that parcels were piled up against the Station Master's door and then when the train pulled out much of the pile fell onto the tracks. We then jumped down to clear that and then it was a heckof a rush to barrow (before the B.R.U.T.E.S.) it all down the lift to the parcels office.

    • @ianperryman1078
      @ianperryman1078 4 місяці тому

      As far as I'm aware the only major deposit of Anthracite in Britain is in South West Wales. If you look at the wagons carrying Anthracite they have the name 'Cwmgwrach' on the side, which is a village in Neath Port Talbot county borough, Wales. Like much of western South Wales coalfield, the coal was high quality anthracite. The best coal came from the deepest seam called Big Vein ( also seen on the wagons ). Cefn Coed, about 14 miles from Cwmgwrach, was worked at depths of over 2,500 feet (800m), and was the deepest anthracite mine in the world at that time.

      Many thanks for watching. It is (as @smhorse thought) a Mallard/Blacksmith etched brass model of some vintage. It has been upgraded as with all of our stock with particular attention to valve gear. In fact the model predates the Kernow offering by some decades. If we were to get another model, we would probably choose Jeremy Suter's exquisite etched kit - See Scalefour Society for availability.

    Roye England, a delightful man. His dedication to the vision of Pendon will live for all time. Some years back I did pull his leg about the painters having not yet finished painting the railings around the pond by the pub. The last I saw of them, they were still there enjoying a lunchtime pint.

      Thank you for sharing your memories of times with Roye, his dedication does indeed live on through all of the volunteers at Pendon (and some still enjoy a lunchtime pint)…..

    Despite assertions by some cetain modellers in the USA, THIS is THE epitome of railway mdelling bar NONE.

      Agreed! I live in Canada and have seen many American and Canadian layouts but they cant hold a candle to Pendon Its the lack of historical details that let them down, the likes of Dartmoor and The Vale scene such scenic views let alone the details in the buildings,farms and villages.

      Pendon will ALWAYS be my personal standard of excellence to aim for, but never reach. Indeed, there are (or, alas, have been but are no more) some very fine US layouts which also inspire me - but there's something uniquely different about Pendon, both the Vale of the White Horse and the Dartmoor scenes, and the Madder Valley. Having John Ahern's masterpiece on display beside their own marvels perfectly displays how far the hobby has come in 70 years.
