for anyone curious, the train's true identity is LMS 45407 "The Royal Fusiliers" a "Black 5" 4-6-0. the *Real* Polar Express is Pierre Marquette 1225, a 2-8-4 Berkshire built by ALCO (NOT Baldwin like the dumb kid in the movie arrogantly asserts) the UK doesn't have any 2-8-4 Berkshire locomotives (though there had been proposals)
I absolutely love your videos on both channels but I especially love this video as I live just outside Bedale. My husband works at RAF Leeming and you were right, there was an exercise on with visiting planes from Switzerland. X
Ohh that looks brilliant, i am a Yorkshire woman living in Liverpool. I found your channel recently with the lapland videos, i can not believe you saw walk with me and waled ight past him ha ha i would have had to say hi or something, anyways subbed
Thanks Catherine for this magical vlog and your Lapland vlogs. ❤️ These bring me Christmas home. My boyfriend and I got Covid so we have to stay at home alone this year but it brings me so much joy watching these Christmas vlogs ❤️ Hugs from Germany, Michi
Oh my goodness so happy you like it thank you so so much for watching! Oh man I’m so sorry you got covid I hope your all rested and recovered for Christmas ❤
No way! 😄 I live just outside of bedale so glad you enjoyed it! It’s a lovely place. We live next to leeming bar raf so we constantly hear the planes going over our house. Tom and Nellies is so good, but unfortunately they’ve just announced that they’ll be closing for good because of staffing issues. So glad you had a good time and great to see the little town shown on camera! 😄
Oh my goodness, looks like you all had so much fun. I loved when they had the snow blowing as you guys were waiting to get on the train. Merry Christmas!
@@catherinekayy it was such a lovely experience. It’s made me want to go to Lapland. Well worth every penny and your video was great to watch beforehand. We didn’t get a giant cookie though like you which I was looking forward to , we got shortbreads but still lovely 💜
I need to do this now!! We also have this in America and I’ve seen other youtubers vlog their experiences but oh jolly yours by far is the most magical! Makes me want to come to the UK one. Haha
Ohhhh you should totally do it! It was a super fun experience the funny thing was all the actors had to put on American accents because the film is set in America! ❤
nah, the Michigan train is the real *real* "polar express" (Pierre Marquette 1225 is the train the author based the story off of and the train they modeled in the movie)
I hope you guys like this vlog It was such a fun experience hahah, how hecking cool are steam trains 🤣🙈
I just love how Dean has fun with the most serious facial expression 🤣
😂😂😂😂 you should see him when he’s having the time of his life too 😂 he’s such a non expressive person 😂❤ it makes me laugh ahahah 😂
Idk why this made me so emotional 😂 I didn’t even grow up watching the movie. But just seeing everyone really enjoy themselves made me so happy 🥰
Hehehe it was such a fun day out ❤❤❤ hehehe I’m so happy you enjoyed it hehe
I went on this when I was younger and it was 10/10
That looked great fun, the cast threw their whole selves into it. Loved that people turned up in their jammies, tfs ⭐️🎄❄️

Hi! A bit random but where did you park? Did you get the park and ride? 😊
Yes! I think we did 💕💕🌸
omg hold up did they do the sonds with sign langugage?
I don’t think they usually do! But my cousin knows sign language so they were doing it together hehe ❤
Glad I watched this before wasting £150 this year, looks absolute rubbish and a cringe fest!
awww sorry you thought that hahah 🤣 we made some great memories!
You probably wouldn’t have got tickets so late in the year anyway. We booked ours in January.
