Hey all. Ph4ntomBr4in here!
When I'm not exploring the vast environments of video games and geek culture on my main channel, there is nothing I enjoy more than to fall back into the sounds, sights and comforting history and culture of trains.
My personal favourite type of train is Steam, mostly for its history and intrigue, though I do not deny that electric and Diesel trains have their place as well.

#midsomernorton #heritagerailway #dmu Nestled in the trees of Midsomer Norton is a small station with a single line that runs up and down to give a one mile ride to passengers.

Great video! I've subscribed!
Thank you so much. Really appreciate it. 😁
@@ph4ntomtr4in You're welcome! I saw her at Gerrards Cross.
She is a real beaut. 😁
Looks like a great place to visit. Thanks for sharing 👍
@@johnwoodhouse3369 Absolutely. I recommend it. Thanks for watching. 😁
Yes, please do let us see the backwards view of the return trip. These were fantastic trains, and - if they'd been given a chance, might have generated enough passengers to save lines like the S&D; but the powers that be had decided the car was the future! I remember loving to ride on DMUs like this back in the 1960s and 70s - not all of them on rural branch-lines ....
@ricktownend9144 DMU's are a new thing to me, but in a way, I never realised that I have been travelling on DMU's all along on the main line. You don't really appreciate it until you visit a heritage railway. I'll upload it soon. :)
I've just uploaded it. Hope you enjoy. :) ruclips.net/video/eLoLz9hA9X8/видео.htmlsi=Pg0S2cYw7TqQdu0S
Beautiful sceneries!
@@susannestoffel2534 The amount of detail and inspiration is incredible. 🙂
Man these were some amazing layouts, thanks for sharing.
@@edgein7892 They really were. 😁 Thanks for watching.
@@ph4ntomtr4in Quite some detail too but I absolutely loved the Dads Army setup. I still love that show 🤣
Gordon is an engine I have a soft spot for, as my mother was raised in Liss, which is where the Longmoor Military Railway terminated. admittedly, she was born after the railway closed, but still. There were attempts to preserve a section of the LMR, but local opposition meant that it never got off the ground. Some of the engines currently in the Engine House have been there since it opened (from memory I think they're Gordon, no. 47383 and no. 80079, maybe even 48773), the others have come in over time. It is a useful place to store locos that are so far down the overhaul queue they might not run again. Some engines which were initially in there have been overhauled as well. For instance, GWR 15xx no.1501 was in the museum when it first opened in 2008 before being overhauled and restored to traffic; she's currently under overhaul, her boiler ticket having expired in January 2023. I imagine you read all the various stories of the engines, but my favourite is probably 48773 hitting a camel! She was also stationed on the Longmoor Military Railway for some time after WW2, before being sold to BR. She was then mistaken for a WD 2-8-0 and given the number 90733, before the mistake was rectified and she was assigned 48773. Funnily enough, that number would be given to the one surviving WD 2-8-0, which had never even worked in the UK before preservation!
Thanks for your comment. The first time I entered the Engine House I was overwhelmed with how much stock they had. I adored the tank engines and the Ivatt Class, but Gordon was probably the most impressive one there. It's a shame the railway wasn't preserved, but there seems to be growing hope for the future with Steam and preservation having a strong resurgence. I tried to read as much as possible, but that story was really interesting. I think I somewhat remember reading a little about it.
Bristol is nice. I considered going to university there to study Geography (the grades needed were too ambitious for me, so it was always a long shot; in the end I went to Bangor instead). My godmother lives not too far away from Bristol, near Yate, so I have been into the city on a few occasions, most notably when they had the various Gromit statues dotted around the place (my favourite was Isambark Kingdog Brunel, who they could've put in a few places but ultimately chose to put him outside Temple Meads), and the Shaun the Sheep statues a year or two later.
I studied Animation in Bristol (I should really get back into it) and from there the city took my heart. I have made many friends in the city and no doubt I'll make many more. An old school friend of mine went to Bangor to learn politics. Sadly I don't talk to him nowadays but I hope he is doing well. The Gromit Trails are really fun.
@@ph4ntomtr4in Somehow, studying animation in Bristol just seems right, what with Aardman being based there! Bangor was great, and well, being on the doorstep of Snowdonia, it was perfect for Geography! I usually had a a fair journey to get there though, travelling by train. Often at the start of term my parents would drop my sister off at boarding school in Shrewsbury and I'd take the train from there. On the way back I'd either be picked up from there or Smethwick Galton Bridge or just head all the way back to Kidderminster. Coming home for Christmas in my second year was an odyssey though. I think there were engineering works on the North Wales Coast Line between Rhyl and Chester, and there was also chaos from flooding which had affected the line to Wrexham and therefore Shrewsbury. That wasn't an issue, I could go via Crewe instead and still end up at Smethwick. One of my flatmates was in the same boat as me, only instead of going to Kidderminster he was going further, down to Pershore. We got on the train at Bangor and it terminated at Rhyl. We then had some chaos as the replacement bus hadn't arrived. The staff were brilliant, they were trying to call taxis, sorting people out into groups, etc. We eventually got a bus to Chester, then found that trains were being cancelled there so we had to take another bus to Crewe. Then we got on a train, but got stuck at Wolverhampton! In the end I called my dad and he picked me up from there. My flatmate meanwhile stuck it out! He did manage to get home eventually. The whole thing took from around 3pm until somewhere between 9 and 10!
the Ivatt has broken a leaf spring
I guess that would explain why it had running issues? Lately during recent visits she seemed to be running quite well so it musty be fixed?
Hi Daniel, just liked and subbed, so good to see Somerset Andy's layout is still being developed, thanks for sharing, take care, all the best from Scotland, Stephen.
Hiya Stephen. Thanks for the comment. :) I still got some work to go but it's nearing completion now I think.
I’ve been here!
@@rocmonki2099 It's a beautiful ride up and down. :)
Fantastic awesome video Daniel mate and thank you for the mention very much appreciated happy modelling kind regards Danny 😀 😊😃
@IVERJUNCTION Thanks Danny. There's still some work to do but it's sp close now. I can't wait to show off the final result.
I'm pretty sure Country Park Halt is still used, or at least I haven't come across anything recently indicating otherwise. Glad you enjoyed your first visit to the SVR!
@dominicbarden4436 Oh really? Maybe they used it on a different timetable or for certain events? Either way if it is still used from time to time that's pretty cool. Thank you. I am just trying to work out how and when to go back. 😁
@@ph4ntomtr4in Well it's a request stop so people would ask/signal to use it anyway. And like Northwood Halt (between Bewdley and Arley) it's only used during daylight hours. Perhaps no-one wanted to use it when you went! If you do make it back, Bewdley's well worth stopping off at. And at Arley there's the Arboretum over the river at the top of the hill.
@@dominicbarden4436 That does make a lot more sense. I will have to go back and visit those places and so many more. :D
Great video, fantastic bark off 6990 when she is running around at BL. Good choice of beverage for such a sunny day!
Thank you. I always love watching trains coupling up. Can't go wrong with a cider. Maybe one day I'll get to a beer/cider festival at a railway one day and to a tasting session. :P
Great video. Pleased someone has put one of the turntable shots up on RUclips. That was me and the fireman pushing it round though there was a great shot at one point when he wasn't pushing. 😂😂 The buffer isn't bad. It does have a droop on it but it can be rotated a little.
@britishgypsum4347 Thank you. You two did a grand job with the turntable. I had always wanted to see it in action since it was built. 😁 Oh that's good. I was a bit worried about the buffer (don't know why), but if it's as simple as a quick twist then that's all good. :)
@@ph4ntomtr4in it can't go anywhere because the of the spring and the nut holding it inside the buffer shank. Put it down to being 161 years old! 😂
@@ph4ntomtr4inI had never used a turntable until I visited WSR. We have a small one installed at Ribble now but we haven't laid the track to it yet. Job to be done this year
You had a wonderful evening for it for sure! Food looked decent and with beer/cider, can't fault it!
@JBTEvans Absolutely. It is an ideal way to spend a sunny evening. 😁 I totally recommend it. Thanks for watching.
Really good video of what the weekend was really like not just trains passing by. Lots more to see than I expected with the house shops and police station. A lot of effort putting on those displays and some real interesting posters I have no seen before. My Father was in the blitz in Sheffield he did not say much about it apart from how lucky their house was not hit, others around were destroyed. In the shelter you had no idea what you would find after the raid, he said bombs hit every alternate street and you could tell if it would be your street next or over the top to the next but could not tell which house from the shelter they had to use. There are things I remember from years ago that were still used in our home on display brings back memories of what little we had back then and how house work has changed.
Thank you for your comment. I really learned a lot from the 1940's experience. As someone who was born in the 1990's it was a real culture shock to see what life was like that time. I would hear stories from my grandparents about how countryside towns and villages managed, especially with new additions to the household and the friendships formed long after. What striked me as powerful was the resilience of the people to carry on as best you could up until the very end. There was so much to take away from that day.
@@ph4ntomtr4in It is hard to imagine how people coped. It is sad our community spirit is not as strong as it was back then, people coming together to help one another. Both my parents had experience of life through the war My Father as I said in Sheffield and my Mother as a land girl working on farms in North East. Quite a contrast. Neither had any of life's luxuries, Mother got a job that meant moving to Sheffield to try and get a better life. For a young lady that was very ambitious. It took years of working and saving before we had our own house. We don't realise how lucky we are now and should remember those days through events like this.
When millions and billions of young teenagers gets up really early in the morning for School days from September to Christmas break ups 🏫🎄⬆️
Awesome Daniel mate I love the new camera angle by the town scene with your trains approaching kind regards Danny 😀 😊😃
Thanks a bundle Danny. I'll try and upload some more shorts with a different variety of locos and rolling stock.
Hi Daniel I'm very pleased to subscri8e to your channel. Wonderful to see Andy's layout up & running again. Andy was a great friend, knowing eachother through our RUclips channels. Unfortunately we never met in person, but we did talk quite a lot on the phone. He's very sadly missed. Great tribute to Andy. May you & your dad have many hours of fun on your new layout. Best wishes I send to you both. Happy modelling & ATB Kevin 🙋♂️👍🤝
Hiya mate. Glad to meet you. :) Thanks for the kind words as well. :) I'm looking forward to showing off more of this train set and different trains running on it.
@@ph4ntomtr4in look forward to seeing more videos Daniel. Cheers Kevin 🤝
Wow fantastic tribute and video. Love seeing frome parkway being brought back to life by yourself and your dad, sand just messaged me saying that andys layout is now back up and running, splendid job and well done, Andy was such a fantastic friend, really miss our chats on the phone, I was honoured and privileged to have met him and getting to see frome parkway at his house, forever missed 😢 RIP Andy 🙏 hope you have hours of fun running all those amazing trains, just subscribed and will look forward to seeing more videos kind regards Danny 😀 😊😃
Hiya mate. Good to chat to you. Thanks for the kind comment as well. ☺️ Andy was a real passionate guy and his admiration for trains is incredibly inspiring. Working on his train set has taught me loads already about scale modelling.
It actually looks quite a beefy thing. You see a little OO model of one yet you don’t realise the actual size of the real engine.
I've not seen a OO model one, but you do have a point. It's quite beefy for a tank engine.
Lovely. Thanks for sharing
Thank you. 😁
excellent video, never heard of this place before!
Thank you. 😁 It was a new discovery for me too.
i had a footplate ride on this loco last month
I just discovered last week that footplate experiences were a thing. I hear they can be a little pricy?
I hope you enjoyed driving Lady Nan
I did. It was amazing to live a childhood dream. 😊 It's interesting because Lady Nan is quite an easy train to drive as it has fewer controls than larger trains. But I don't know if that is to do with it being initially a shunter engine.
Thank you for your informative comments ...... but please leave them up there for a couple seconds longer.
Gotcha. 😁👍
BRAKES vs breaks ...... there's a difference
absoloutely gorgeous old station house there i love the approach up the hill
It's an absolutely stunning, peaceful line.
