- After our miniature train ride we spent a lot of time looking around the model village,you just cannot imagine how much time goes into building these houses and gardens,even the railway is run like the real thing and all the Bonsai trees just amazing.Sorry about the odd shake all my videos are taken hand held these days.
Another great video! I've had a lot of fun being involved with Bekonscot over the years!
Yes it's one of the best we have visited.Some quit funny exhibits if you look for them.
I always will remember coming here as a kid and being forever fascinated by the trains and models and would never want to leave, shame I grew up in some ways as it gave so many days out with fiends and family and never got bored
Great place to visit.
Thank you, you got quite close and let us have a good look, I have been to Babbacombe and is fantastic, not much on Vauxhall park, London, miniature cottages but that is where I used to look at 60 odd years ago and it is still there.
Many Thanks Joan,glad you liked my video.
What a fantastic model village. They must have everything you can think of scaled down to view! One 'lady' even cleaning her window!
+BillycanKay Yes it is fantastic Kay,did you see the guy falling of the ladder? Best model village we have seen....Regards Chris
Now thats what I call a model village , with a rail system , rivers, lakes , everything ...nice place to visit Chris ...Dave
+David Howarth Could you fit one into your lovely garden? but on a smaller scale Dave.You could play outside as well as the loft,great fun!....Regards Chris.
+wooltman Just wish I had the skill to build one Chris ...and the money + her indoors permission LOL ..Dave
Great footage of Bekonscot.
Thanks for sharing.
Love the "oops, pardon" at 4 minutes' in.
+Ed Shunt Thanks Ed,yes kids belching on my video what ever next! Glad you liked my video and thanks for commenting....Regards Chris.
Hi Chris
I could never get any of our kids interested in such outings so my hat is off to you sir and all burpage is excused, of course.
Never heard of it or seen it ,,, looks outstanding and an interesting day out many thanks
+Alan Plumb It really is Alan,well worth a visit,i'm sure we missed a lot of detail......Regards Chris
You MUST see it!!
That's one of the best model villages I've seen Chris, superbly captured, and that railway is something else...so much to see there...Great production...Regards...Bob
+Robert Masterman Thank you for your kind comments Bob,it must be one of the best,I cannot recall a better one. The time that goes into the upkeep of the grounds and buildings,very well done to them......Regards Chris.
I used to bring my children here in the 1980s now my grandchildren. This place is wonderful never mind the scale! Who cares anyway. Let your imagination run wild. Whether you are 3 or 103 this place is superb!!!
I agree,great fun for all the family Derek..........Regards Chris
That's very nice, some lovely little details like the working crossing gates. I like the scale trees.That feller up the ladder would worry a health & safety person though.
They used to have (maybe they still do), a model village near here with a railway and things. They had a building on fire with firemen up a ladder too, but it sprayed actual water when you pressed a button! What fun that was.
+AndreiTupolev They have put a lot of thought into getting this right havn't they Andrei,the railway was all work from it's own signal box as well.Rosie spotted the guy up the ladder so had to take a shot of that.The house fire was great and I agree a button to spray water would be a good finishing touch.........Regards Chris
Hi Chris,another great video in 2 days! It was very impressive in it''s scale and you really did it justice. I particularly liked the houses around the village Green.It is strange I did'nt see one of these when I was a youngster.It must be a wonderland for children,and a great day out.Regards Geoff
+geofflewis1934 Hi Geoff,I think they have one at Babbacombe in Devon is that near you? Thanks for your nice comments Geoff they are much appreciated.....Regards Chris.
Yes we have quite a good one at Babbacombe as you say,but I have not yet felt the urge to video it ! Geoff
I will have to visit this place. Looks amazing.
If your in the area you must visit you won't be disappointed.........Thanks for commenting.......Regards Chris
That is the first time I have laughed at a house on fire..My goodness so cute!
Glad you enjoyed that shot.....Regards Chris
Great video Chris, must get there soon especially the trains are my scale, regards Graham.
+Grahams G1 Trains Thanks Graham glad you liked the video,I thought I had used to many clips of the trains but when watching it through it seems about right.Lovely scale for a garden railway Graham,have you got a layout in your garden? Thanks for commenting.......Best regards Chris.
+wooltman i have a G1 model railway in my garden which my latest video is all about , i am lacking buildings that will be next on the list ,but as you know its all about engeering and the thrill of live steam in the larger scales , all the best Graham
What a superb Model Village this is...far better than the one at Babbacombe in Devon. Love all the Railway footage and many other bits as well....Great video nicely filmed..very steady......Best wishes....Steve.-:)
+Steve Lewis Video Channel. I thought I had overdone the shots of the railway but after watching it again it looks about right.We had a great morning at this Model village and railway,we would have stayed longer but we had a tight schedule so off we went to Watford only to find out the railway wasn't running.Never mind we had a nice walk in the snow showers and we got attacked by two parrots,but that is another story!!.......Regards Chris.
Parrotts..?? Possibly like the Monty Python Sketch years ago !! lol...
+Steve Lewis Video Channel. As we walked through the park we noticed a guy looking up into a tree,he said he had never seen that before and before we could say what! two parrots flew down, the smaller green one landed on my shoulder,it then took a liking to my nose!! The Macaw a large red and blue one landed on the ground,they were very tame so must have escaped from somebody's house.Rosie didn't worry she just wanted the camera to film the nose removal operation!! LOL.
Lol,,,,,.-:)
Midsomer Murder season 12 Small Sacrifices filmed there. Amazing place!
It is an amazing place,we had a great time there Lynda,I didn't know they filmed that Midsummer Murders at Bekonscot.......Many thanks for commenting......Regards Chris
Wow!
Glad you enjoyed the video Deborah.
how did they make that castle
You will have to email them and ask.
Is that where the borrowers live?
It could well be,will check the next time i'm down lol!
Why is the Sydney Harbour Bridge in a British village model?! Lol! :)
Because they think it is wonderful structure and worthy of a place in this model village. Best wishes Chris
My wife wanted us to be shrunken down to size and be able to live there LOL
That would be nice wouldn't it,what a cracking place to live.........Regards Chris.
How to get from London?
M40 to Beaconsfield,or you could catch a train.
Lovely Chris, incredible detail considering it has to withstand the elements too. If ever you're near Bridlington this one is worth a visit albeit on a smaller scale & less railway ua-cam.com/video/63ihOaUupKA/v-deo.html Cheers, Brian.
+SYKAROST Will have a look at that if were ever up at Bridlington Brian........Chris.
