Once again a very nice analysis! I'm really enjoying this series. Also wanted to wish a massive congratulations to you on your engagement. I'm so happy for you guys. Keep up the great work!
this series is really great. as i’ve said previously congratulations on your engagement. look forward to seeing you in tywyn soon (as i can’t seem to escape it)
Wow! :O What a brilliant episode to this all-new documentary series. "Calbourne and the Big Move" certainly something that would inspired the Reverend Wilbert Awdry's Railway Series. :)
That’s the wonderful thing about steam engines and preservation. Wildlife painters, publishers, oil rig workers, London bankers, so many different kinds of people, all sharing their love of history and historic technology. As much as I love cars and video games, I don’t think I’ve ever heard such amazing stories about people coming together to save a railway. If Calbourne had a personality, they’d be one hell of a worker.
William Adams designed the Adams Axle, not the Radial Axle(That was designed by William Bridges Adams), and used the radial axle on his engines. It's all a bit confusing
Whilst I'm more of a fan to the workings of Drummond, I find plenty of Adams designs quite genius and punctual and Calbourne sure is one of those examples alongside 488 and Normandy
Do you happen to know when exactly Chale was scrapped? Withdrawal dates obviously say 1967, and you mention it still being around in '69. Was it scrapped sometime during the latter year?
Hypothetical scenario: You´re a railway lover and a business owner in the 1960s. You´ve always loved trains and have longed to own your own railway and locomotives. Now thanks to the modernization plan of the 50s and 60s, there is now plenty of spare track for you to build your dream upon. But where do you do it? And what locomotives and rolling stock (that is still around) do you preserve?
The intro still get's me
I love that you are also doing the Move too. That was so tense from what I hear
The Adams T3 is literally just a Radial Tank engine with a tender where the bunker and trailing axle would've been.
The Big Move, almost the real life Titfield Thunderbolt? Thanks for posting such a brilliant video..
I love these types of videos. A perfect casual watch for someone like me who’d love to learn more about these real railways and their stories.

Thank you so much! May make a video on that, though not sure yet.
Bro yes! I love this series!
This story was so crazy, I love it!
12:58 the trailing wheels aren't moving.
I got to see 2 of my favorite engines in this.
No. 1 the 812 class
No. 2 the Ivatt class 2
Two very lovely locos.
this series is really great.
as i’ve said previously congratulations on your engagement. look forward to seeing you in tywyn soon (as i can’t seem to escape it)
Thanks mate! :D I'll definitely be there for the Awdry gala but hoping to be up there sooner as well. Would be good to see you again.
a very fitting tribute to to the people help save this steam engine

I had no idea about the story. Great job with your presentation.

3:41 I've Might Go To The Isle Of Wight Steam Railway One Day. Thanks Mate. X
I just can’t wait for the next very steam engine on the steam railway in its early years bc it’s my favourite Invincible
Another fantastic video max and a good insight into No24’s history 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video, Max!
Me and my late father walked thru the Wooten station and its cutting in 1975. Wish I had taken pictures
i absolutely loved the video
this gave me so much inspiration. thanks
I agree with the Lego T3, the resemblance is uncanny to me!

A british boi with a hooter, nice
