Lovely video, and camera work too! What made you go down the Thomas the tank engine route? Hi, Thanks for the post and the great comment. We have lots of fun making these little videos so it's always nice when folks say nice things. Why Thomas? Well, we started off with our 16mm live steam Roundhou...

That made me smile. Great video...thank you! John Hi John, Thanks for the great comment. These little videos are great fun to make and they make us smile as well.

What a great advert for 16mm garden railways! Tanks for posting I really MUST make the effort and get down to Rothley. Two and a half miles is hardly far to come! Hi, Thanks for the great comment. I'm sure you will be very welcome at the wonderful Charnwood Forest Garden Railway. They are open at w...

ten million ?? Wow. That's a lot of views. Presumably because your videos are worth watching more than once. I especially like the "trains in the rain" one. Very atmospheric. Hi Kieith, Thanks for the post. It's hard to imagine that our little videos have been watched nearly ten million t...

This showreel features our location visits to Charnwood Forest Garden Railway in Leicestershire and the Sandwell Valley Railway in Sandwell ...

I can see you are using a Mtronkis viper speed controller which I am sure helps. It's a shame it's only 45mm :( Thanks for the pics. Hi, Thanks for the reply. The Mtronics speed controllers are great and are now fitted with directional lighting control as well. The first one we fitted to Toby worke...

Excellent slow running at the station. What motor set up does it have.  Does it use a fly wheel? Hi, Thanks for the post. Toby performs really well and now we have converted him to radio control and battery power he runs very smoothly. The motor looks like the other Bachmann Thomas motors but I gue...

Hi Folks,

Toby finally has his radio control and rechargeable batteries fitted and gets out into the garden. He runs really well with lots of control. Here's his first little movie in the sunshine.

Hi Folks, After months of waiting Bachmann's large scale Toby the Tram engine has finally arrived on Pine Tree Junction. He needs to be converted to radio control and battery power before we can make his first little movie but here are some photos of him sitting around the railway in the bright Wint...

Hi Folks,

Our Sandy River 2-6-2 steamer has been out in the garden again. Hope you like our first video of 2014!

Excellent production well thought out and presented. I particularly like the choice of music.... festive and quite moving. First class and a prize winner if there was a category for it. Wow! Peter.
