A beam engine in a pumping station would be an interesting feature. It needn't be in a mine or quarry either, it could be just for town drinking water or even a little machine shop next to an engine shed.

K&WNLR: Back again with an IoM "Peveril" and m

It´s been a while, but there´s been intensive tree planting on the line, and I´ve been running in an Accucraft IoM live steam "Peveril", when it wasn´t running away ...

Was that a Roundhouse "Stanley" I saw in the middle of the video? You don't see one of those every day! And then a new Roundhouse "George"!
You certainly have an exciting engine collection. The Peveril is nice too. I love the coaches it was pulling. It seems to me that there is a different type of engine in almost every one of your videos. I would like to see some of the more unusual ones, like the Stanley. The steam engines are the main reason I am interested in model railways.

Indeed I have a Stanley - it was the first live steam loco I ever bought - and apart from being slightly bent by falling off something back then - is a loyal part of the fleet. There is a video somewhere on Youtube with it in (fast) operation. I´ll see what I can do to improve the number of engines in steam!

The Portmeirion village gets a connection to the rack railway station .... though it´s held there at the moment by faith alone.

Absolutely stunning!!!
Do you ever stop to eat or sleep?
All of these things take time but it must stand still where you live.

Unusually, I am lost for words of admiration!
Everything is just superb and I particularly love the railbus.
