'Roundhouse The Video' - 1989

Released on VHS in 1989 this video production aimed to give small insight into the world of garden railways and the Roundhouse factory. Many of the core principles expressed here; a love for steam, careful engineering and first rate customer service are still hallmarks of Roundhouse today.

Beautiful historical footage. I saw the Fowler and I assume it was one of your first locomotives built. Over the years I have purchased many of your locos, both steam and diesel and they are all wonderful, they have toured a lot on my garden layaut and have never had any trouble. I also have a Fouler, taken many years ago from ELR, converted to coal, which works very well. I can only congratulate you on your locomotives! Hello Fabrizio

Wow, a proper blast from the past. 1989 was the year I first found out about Roundhouse, though it was unfortunately another 18 years before I was able to buy my first. The collection is growing now though. Keep it going.

Great video, that onboard camera shot was probably difficult to capture back then before the advent of the GoPro and other small cameras. I can imagine quite a large bulky camera strapped on for the ride. I am saving up to purchase a Lady Anne kitset eventually. I'm finding track to be very expensive in here in NZ so the project is on hold until I can justify it with Mrs T.
Greetings from NZ.

I still have the original VHS Tape and I watch it regularly.
