It's times like this that I wish The Railway Series was still being written. Seeing a parallel story to the Skarloey Railway and a new diesel on the North Western Railway being names Skarloey would be really cool.
I believe 70 years after Christopher’s death somebody could write the railway series again. Not sure though
Don’t think we really need a story based off of everything that happens at Talyllyn
It would be very interesting to see what the potential for the RWS could have been with new engines, Steam or Diesel, new challenges, consequences, a drastic change to the world and much much more.
Oh boi, I already created the headcanon about it.
So, in early 2019, the Class 37 was purchased from the other railway. The Fat Controller didn't have the idea how to name it and created the name contest for him (like it was with Tom Rolt). Mr. Percival was taking a part there and offered to name the diesel "Skarloey". Many people voted for Mr. Percival's the idea and on August 10th 2019, the Class 37 was officially named Skarloey at Crovan's Gate. Skarloey (NG) also was in this ceremony. The diesel officially entered the service later that day.
@@NVRacingProductions wdym by the other railway it’s called British railways/british rail and hasn’t existed since 1997
5:21 "thank you John, you can keep your job"
Ello there hru?
5:10 The Class 37 in departmental use (Class 97) is going to be named after Talyllyn? That's great! Now, I can't wait for naming a Class 47 after Dolgoch!
N° 4’s looking good. Can’t wait to see Peter Sam sport the livery in July.
Will have to come down some other time to see Edward Thomas!
What a wonderful surprise. Such a super railway is Talyllyn . 👋👋
One of these days I will find the time to come from California to see this beautiful Railway.
That is a CUTE diesel
Cant wait to go to the talyllyn railway in July. One of, if not the best heritage railways in the world. I am really proud to be a member of the railway with a heart of gold 💛 🎉
Congrats to the lad on getting to be the second talyllyn
Next month, it’ll be nine years, nearly a whole decade, since I visited the Talyllyn Railway with my parents. They were such a nice summer holidays, right between me finishing primary school and starting secondary school, and we did so many things, among them visiting Wales. Dolgoch pulled the train we rode on that day, seeing her at the beginning was a nice reminder of that. It’s always nice to see videos from you. 😊
I'd no idea that coach 27 was going to be an open one! Love seeing the 97 & I'm very happy to see things going well down in Tywyn! Also very excited to see Edward Thomas back!
1:17
I saw it! It's rather fab. Now who's going to make a kit of it...
Excellent set of news.
Love tallylins deep blue livery, really nice!
I know I'm late but happy founders day! It's cool that there is now a diesel named after the railway! It's cool that you guys fixed up that old coach. It's also cool that you let kids help out on the railway. It's nice to see Talyllyn back in acshin. Hope you all have a great day!
he luke its me jimmy from the slate trail. send my regards to the crew from the dolgnoch/the driver and the fireman

2 Talyllyns = 2 skarloeys
What a reveal at 5:06 !
Now Dosnt this bring back memories RWS fans will know what I mean hopefully
Let's go lads!
Woohoo!!!
Pretty good video i really like this one
Very good!
I like the cage you have for the bad boys and girls 😊
Great video, thanks everyone.
I have a question that seems to be weird but if the tallyllyn railway were to be converted into a 3' 6" railway, what does need to be done in order to make the locomotives function, operate, and look like they were designed to be on 3' 6" railway ( like improvements, changing size, etc). Hopefully I don't weird someone out.
When did Dolgoch’s break pump get moved further back? And why?
There is only one Talyllyn to me
Edward thomas look different I like it
5:25 When the New says hello to the Old.
"New" well 100 years newer than the original Talyllyn locos but still 60 years old
Hey this may be an odd question but i cant seem to find an awnser anywhere. But i was wondering what the loading gauge of the tallylyn is. I know the track gauge is 2ft 3 in but im curious what the loading gauge is as i can't gind an awnser. If someone knows feel free to comment
Nice of rishi sunak to stay for the whole naming ceremony
Huh he was there?
I wonder what r w Awdry would think
I think he would have really enjoyed the naming ceremony for that Class 97.
I was there and, to me, it felt exactly like a scene from one of his Railway Series books. The bit where all the locos saluted by whistling or hooting was particularly evocative of that.
@@derekp2674 This even is definitely going to be in alot of ttte au's also I'm glad you got the chance to be a part of one of those sceenes
@@user-pi2wp8un3f Thanks.
The TR is a magic place to be.
Today we (kind of) saw real life crane shunting as band new carriage No. 25 was delivered by lorry from Porthmadog and then spun though 180 degrees (to get its doors on the correct side) as it was craned onto the middle road of the loop.
I don't think the classic Railway Series ever covered a future in which the road transport of rail locos and carriages would be normalised as common practice.
@@derekp2674 This is what the hit era could have and should have been
So British Rail are naming a new diesel after your old faitful
Caroline on a day out
Ember would be more frustrated if she's a train fan
Dolgokh?
I thought it was pronounced Dolgoch with a /ch/ sound and not a /kh/ sound.
You've got to remember that Dolgoch is a Welsh word, and welsh letters aren't the same as in English!
'Ch' doesn't make a /ch/ sound, but instead the /kh/ sound as you heard.
Another example of Welsh vs English letters is 'F', in Welsh you would pronounce it as /v/ - and to get an /f/ sound you would use the letter 'ff'.
