The Ivy Railway - Minimal / Miniature Garden Railway Short Film.

I have created a short film of the railway using multiple clips from the past and some, as yet unseen footage. The film was inspired by Geoffrey Jones's railway films such as 'Locomotion', 'Rail' and 'Snow'. Most of the footage is my own with a few bits taken by friends. Drone footage by Lawrie Rose.
I hope this serves as a nice introduction to the railway and some of the stuff that has been going on for almost four years here in South West Wales.
Music by me.

Great video! 😊 But I had to mute the music - it gave me headache!😢

Hey bud! Nice as always.
I was trying to explain to my daughter your property... but couldn't quite get a feel for the size of it. How many acres and how long is your loop? 🤘

[@Elvinley]

It is less than an acre and the line itself is about 80 metres long. The balloon loop is about 9' radius and the run round loop is big enough to fit two coaches in.

[@scottmitchell1974]

@@Elvinley Thank you! That helps me visualize it. I remain forever jealous. 😁
