      Hi, and thanks for subscribing and the super feedback! There will be more heritage railways, I promise. There is a playlist of the ones we have visited so far if you’re interested. There will also be other travel videos as well should that be of interest as well. Best wishes from the UK, Kirk & Bear.

    They deserve more customers!
    Everything clean as a whistle, and a great collection of locos!
    Certain it was a merlin, but I thought it was a Hurricane

      They do indeed. Really friendly team too - we spent 20mins in the signal box chatting.
      You might be right - I didn’t get a close look unfortunately, but it sounded great and turned up at the perfect moment!

      Most likely a dual seat spitfire owned by Aero Legends doing pleasure flights from North Weald airfield. The also offer Tigermoth, Harvard and BAC Strike Master flights.

      Glad you enjoyed the video. We were in the area visiting family so we don’t know it particularly well. Thanks for being part of the team that lays on such a great day out - everyone was really helpful and friendly.

    I see you travelled between Ongar and North Weald. When is it planned to open the whole line to Epping?

    • @kirkandbear
      @kirkandbear  Рік тому

      Hi, and thanks for getting in touch. I’m not sure to be honest - the website suggests that they run a vintage bus service on to Epping, but we didn’t use it on the day that we visited. It would be nice if it went a bit further thought - the end of the line was at a bridge but without a station once we passed through North Weald. All the best, K&B 👋

      Seems like you only go past North Weald on the DMU to give the Steam Loco a chance to swap ends :-) Still very good though.
