- A visit to Urmston Miniature Railway - Episode 16 of Miniature Railway Britain.
The first miniature railway visit of 2020. We start at the brand new Warrington West Railway Station, travel on a class 150 to Urmston as trains don't stop at Chassen Road on Sundays! We then walk to the Urmston Miniature Railway run by the Urmston & District Model Engineering Society. We see a variety of steam locos including 9F 92245 and a Quarry Hunslet. The railway is 3 1/2" and 5 " gauge.

You' ve got to be in awe of the skills of these guys that build these miniature locos.
I agree, I always admire the skill and dedication these people have.
there is so much to see and do on this miniature railway and the locos looked really great...thanks for posting Henry....
You're welcome! Thank you very much for watching!
What a great little line. Fantastic local facility Which is good to see running on a Sunday in January.
I'm starting to discover a few more miniature railways which run in January!
Hi! I don't usually watch videos like this nor am I a huge fan of trains, but this video definitely got my attention and has given me a fun insight! Very enjoyable! Thank you! 😍🥰
Hi Megan, Thank you for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed it and its really nice to hear that someone who isn't a railway enthusiast has enjoyed this video! :)
@@HenrysAdventures I'll definitely have to watch more! Thanks for such good content!
@@Meggybooz You're welcome! :) I've got some more on the way which I filmed before the lockdown. Not just train stuff to! :) Thanks agian for watching!
Great video. Nice to see standard gauge and miniature in parallel. Some spectacular locomotives and a fascinating route with bridges and inclines. And January has its own beauty. Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much! I always like seeing multiple gauges running side by side!
What a great little line! Steam as well! Superb thank you Henry! 😁👍👊
You're welcome! Thank you for watching! :)
Chassen Road station was built in the 1930's when they built the new houses nearby. The line is the Cheshire Lines Committee route from Liverpool to Manchester and would have been operated by LNER locos when it opened.
Thank you for the info!
it was lovely to see the happy faces of the adults taking their kids on the railway. Going to be interesting as you go through 2020 with covid arriving. Start of 2020 was not good for me high blood pressure high chlorestorol very very high pulse rate and atrial fibrillation followed soon by a diagnosis of needing a triple bypass. I had been wondering why I was finding the chiltern hills harder but at 74 thought it was just old age! You look super fit in early 2020.
Thank you for joining me! It's always nice to see adults enjoying miniature railways. At this time in early 2020 we had no idea of what was just around the corner. I'm glad we're past all that now and can continue to enjoy visiting places like this.
Thanks for a very enjoyable video. Know it well, great place to take the kids on a Sunday afternoon as I did with my two sons when they were younger.
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed watching!
Very enjoyable video with lots of interesting information.
Thank you! :)
CHass en road not Chasaton (Chassen)
Thanks for letting me know. I'm dyslectic so I sometimes don't see words the same as everyone else.
Very enjoyable video! If you ever make it to the States, check out the ILS (Illinois Live Steamers), located in a southwest suburb of Chicago. The Steam Channel has some vids of their operations. Anyway, well done....cheers!
Thank you for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I'll look up Illinois Live Steamers and if I'm in the area I'd love to check it out! :)
Lol. Its Chassen Road. Not Chasterton. Haha
Hi, thank you for your clip.
Just a few points, I'm sorry to write that you have not pronounced 'Chassen' correctly.
Did you not recognise the O1?
About the small circular track outside the club house: prior to our track round the full park we had two circular tracks one inside the other. The one left is not a 'running in' track, anyone can use it just to have a run, some people enjoy driving on this track. Also at certain times we do use it to take passengers.
It can of course be used to test a loco if a driver wishes.
Once again thank you for showing us on you tube.
You're welcome! Thank you for watching and thanks for the info.
They used to have a traction engine rally on this park every year, unfortunately now cancelled. It was going to that when I discovered this railway.
I didn't know about the Traction Engine Rally! Maybe they'll have it in future years when things get back to normal?
@@HenrysAdventures I think it was cost and organisational problems that put an end to it. Was a few years ago now.
It was called May Day Steam. We had much more than just traction engines. It was always a great rally.
@@Gracievision and Fred dibnah coming down the road at 4AM with the whistle going.
Miss may day steam, lymm historic transport day is the closest now
Have you been to America to see some of our trains ?
Not yet but I would like to oneday. We so have some American built S160s at the Churnet Valley Railway which is local to me.
Hey Henry.... This isnt in your 'Minature Railway Britain' play list ! Is there a reason???
Thank you for watching and letting me know. Not sure why it wasn't but it is now.
Not sure what your mystery blue tank engine is.... it's similar to a 0-6-2 U Type used on Austrian Narrow Gauge. These were pretty much the go too/do anything locomotive power of the OBB. I linked to an example below.

Thank you for the info. Lovely loco!
@@HenrysAdventures I have a lovely example in HOe from Lilliput, bought on a whim 30 years ago I have now decided to make a model railway to fit my work bench. One is spending too many hours staring at computer screens, another hobby is needed.
It is chassen road not chasington road
I'm dyslexic so I don't always read it in the same way other people would.
What a load of rubbish, 9 minutes to get there, no such station as Chasaten Road, an awful lot of inane drivel and walking within the confines of the track without getting permission. hope future episodes are an improvement, and presented by paople who are not Dyslectic.
Shut up you sad cretin. At least he tries to do something and you go criticise him and take the piss out of Dyslexic people. You should be ashamed of yourself for putting such a comment which was not needed at all. Grow up.
Its dyslexic, not dyslectic.
If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything. Off you go 🖕
@@sarahbulpin5155 so criticism is not allowed in your world then, without criticism people will never learn or improve. Being "NICE" is not always the best way. Off you go now.
@@philcarlton3212 Sometimes people do things not to be perfect but for enjoyment. Nobody is making you watch these videos so keep your opinions to yourself and stop upsetting people. Off you fuck.
Constructive criticism is fine, saying I walked somewhere without permission (someone from the railway confirmed I've not been anywhere I shouldn't) However hate speech about dyslexic people is completely unacceptable p. I have nothing more to say to you.
