Uncut Driver Experience - Kerr Stuart Cab
So, I'm wanting to buy a gauge 5 steam engine, and it's price is a pretty penny, my mother on the other hand thinks I'm wasting money on something she thinks doesn't move at all, and at first, she thought I was trying to buy a real life, to person scale steam engine.
My Dad was a fireman for 7 years before becoming a steam train driver, which he only got to do for a few years before switching to diesel, but he always said that being a fireman put muscles on his eyebrows! His party trick was crushing someone hand, he was only 5'5" and would challenge strapping body builders to shake his hand but once he started squeezing he'd have them crying like a baby! 🤣His grip was incredible!
A very good film explained in very easy way but don't spring clean pit top to much most pits had little grot spots here n there which does add character the air locks had three doors to go through not 1 and a question for you do you still have the robey steam winding engine from cihber colliery in south Wales it's amazing that the headgears and buildings some how managed to survive and well done 🤝🍻🍻🍻👍🇬🇧
Lovely video . nice to see rolling stock get a mention with Heritage railways the attention always seems to concentrate on the locomotives so it is nice to see the wagon and carriage people getting some recognition for a change.
1:09 is that at Crich tramway
any update?
Thanks for asking - we've been very busy both at and away from the railway, we have also been working with @lmm to provide content to, be sure to be subscribed there. As for coach updates, you can also find a Foxfield C&W facebook group with more regular photo updates. Thanks for watching.
no more updates?
Hope the weather hold for you..
Till what???
Until trains returned.
Merci beaucoup l'Ami
Why can’t you get the pacer pulled by one of your steam locomotives I know you’re probably gonna say oh we can’t because they’re not the same but literally You can get rope
Loved this. Really like your humour and style of editing and comentary too :)
That was cool to see, I can understand the frustration but it's better doing it once and right. Like you, I was loving the thunderbirds vibe :)
Does the line head down here now? or when will it?
The line exists and pway trains do run down, but not currently for passengers
@@bwilesuk Thanks do we know when passenger trains will run down there
@@Jakegriffin2006 Presently it's a long term project, could be years.
@@bwilesuk Oh right thanks gonna be a while then haha
Thank you so much for the staff and volunteers preserving this history. From 1886-1914 their chief engineer was George James Crosbie Dawson my 2nd cousin 4x removed. The North Staffordshire Railway Study Group published an article in Journal 51 written by Mike Fell detailing George’s life. I was able to assist him with files from my genealogy research. Though the NSR is no more, the history lives on in your efforts. Well done!
Will this be this year 2024
Yes this is 18-19th May as mentioned in the video
Hello Foxfield Railway please can you paint the Bass Belle coach number 37519 back in Red, white and black livery and name it the bass belle like in the 1990s if you could
Hi - it's in an interim coat right now, until such time we can get around to putting her back in to service. For now, she's being very useful for our logistics staging for different events in the bay platform.
Well presented
But actually two more days until what?
See the description ;)
Two more days to go, to fix the pacer
Please please please please please please please please please please please please please get the paser out of the siding and fix it
Hi, the upkeep of the unit is up to the owners. After over three years of housing the unit, the Foxfield Board carried out a commercial review of the progress made by the owners and it was decided to ask the owners of the Pacer to find a new home for their unit. We hope it will run again at its new home, wherever that may be in the future.
What's the story with your Pacer today?
After a commercial review of the progress the PRG are making versus the viability of running trains and their demand the Board have decided to ask the PRG to find a new home for their unit.
@@FoxfieldRailwayOfficialdo you know where 055 is going?
Looks like a good day out some lovely cars and bikes there 😊👍🏼
Dont worry i dont do this irl but is it decent practise to use the throttle as a steambrake , for instance to hold a speed of 25 down a 1% line with 15-16% on reversed reverser and full reg on that?
It definitely wears down the cylinders and with time they would have tl be replaced, but it was a real practice that was used on railways and was included in manuals that railway used to train their drivers
@@hectorsendinoserrano8333 cool
0:49 this reminds Hampton The Mine Ghost engine from Somewhere Wales In Roblox.
And moss bay is in pretty good condition too
I came on that day, but I came after it was filmed
There should be turntable at the end of the line near the “mine” (but there is not)
They have a miniature gauge Railway and they barely do anything with it
A Miniature railway that barely runs
I love this and can you fix the pacer
Probably to stop the tracks from moving
And no I wasn’t an elf that year
You foxfiled Fix the pacer that is what I want for Christmas

Hi. The paver belongs to a private group formerly known as the PRG. We can only encourage, ask and set expectations.
Please fix the pacer
@@bwilesuk I know that, and also I volunteer there as well
@@bwilesuk wait, I remember you from somewhere
@@weloveteddy I also volunteer for @lmm and have filmed for Churnet Valley and Apedale railways
you dont drive a train you operate it
My Dad worked on the railways for 49 years and was a driver for 42 years, I never once heard him call himself a train operative, always a driver!
Good to see the shafts are properly capped. How high above the water table are you there in Cheadle? I'm guessing it'll be nearly full of water to the surface anyway?
Bet next time I'm at the rail museum I'm loading up this video and stealing a loco ☠
First be a firemen and shove coal in the firebox and put water in the boiler
I Love this video so well put together 👋
