    Hi from New Zealand! My father, who is 89, was born in Bridgnorth. I used to go to a school called Apley Park, situated just north of the town, on the banks of the river Severn, in the late 1960's. I have not been back there since then, but its on my bucketlist.😊😊😊 A beautiful video, and country side.

      Hello, nice to hear from New Zealand, I'll be over there in October to see my son and his family, I'll also be taking the opportunity to ride one of Steam Incorporated's special trains. Bridgnorth hasn't changed much since the 60's, it's still an attractive town with plenty to see and do. If you do get to ride a Severn Valley train, I'm sure you'll enjoy the experience, not quite the Manawatū Gorge, but never the less it's a scenic ride with some of the prettiest stations to be seen anywhere.

    It's funny how everywhere looks different when viewing it from a train, the Falling Sands Viaduct, for example, is a bridge we drive under all the time because we live very near to this railway but from up above it takes a few seconds to work out where you actually are, the only giveaway here is that big yellow building with 'Stock N Lock' on it!

    • @Timsvideochannel1

      The view from the viaduct is very different, but it doesn't include the best bit, the viaduct arches that can only be seen from road level.

    Thanks Tim, yet another corker production! BUT, something appears wrong with SVR policies, so much shiny rolling stock, super buildings and stations yet a very light train which is one of only a few a day cannot maintain a good speed without numerous restrictions?

    • @Timsvideochannel1
      @Timsvideochannel1  Год назад +19

      Hi, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Like most heritage railways these days the SVR is having to cope with the aftermath of Covid restrictions and the high cost of coal to survive. The train was busy and a number of staff commented on the surprisingly high number of passengers travelling on a weekday before the children had broken up for the holidays. From what I saw the passenger numbers bode well for the future of the railway and I'm sure the timetable will be more intensive once the holidays have started. As for speed limits the railway is governed by the usual 25 mph light railway restriction applied to heritage railways, it also is built on a steep sided valley close to the River Severn, this has given rise to speed restrictions of less than 25 mph in places where the trackbed is unstable due to slow moving landslips. In 2017 repairs to the landslip at County Boundary, between Arley and Highley required a £1 million solution involving soil nails and sinking new piling sheets. I think the railway is doing a very good job under demanding circumstances. On the plus side, who would want to speed through such attractive scenery?

      Thank you Keith, the first time I saw this line, trains had just started running between Bridgenorth and Hampton Loade. As a child my parents used to stop at a transport cafe a mile or so south of Bridgenorth on the road from Kidderminster. My parents couldn't afford to take the family for a ride on the train back then, but the sight of the steam trains on the other side of the valley will always be etched on my memory. Eventually the day came when my parents did take the family for a magical ride on the railway, the line became folklore in my family history. Walking the line must have left you some fascinating memories, we are lucky to live in a country with so many wonderful heritage railways. All the best. Tim.

      Hi, the SVR is one of the best, it must be nice to live close enough to be able to call it your local line, 75069 looked and sounded like new, a real credit to those responsible for looking after her. I visited on a week day and from what I saw, the future looks promising, there were plenty of visitors and they looked to be spending freely in the cafes and souvenir shops at Kidderminster station. The SVR has proved its resilience in the past, this isn't the first time the railway has hit financial issues and I'm sure it will pull through again because it has a strong and loyal membership, coupled with a good public image, who wouldn't want to ride an SVR train? My local railway "the Bluebell Railway" keeps reminding people that it is running trains and staging special events with radio and local newspaper advertising and that is helping to keep visitor numbers at a reasonable level. I'm sure the guys running the SVR are up to the task, I'm looking forward to visiting again.

  • @m.moolhuysen5456
    @m.moolhuysen5456 Год назад +2

    I'm wondering, how does it come that the semaphore signal seen from the rear at 23:12 shows the "off" position (arm tilted in to the lower quadrant) for the opposite direction? Should it not protect against a movement leaving the station in the opposite direction of ours, that potentially could come into conflict with the train we arrive on?

    • @Luigi-uj5ml
      @Luigi-uj5ml Год назад +2

      Here in Italy, along the single-track railway lines without an electrical block (therefore managed with the telephone block or with a similar system), the semaphore-type signals of a given station were set free during the periods in which the station railway was "disabled" (no crossings, right-of-way, shunting, etc.) and the signals were not supposed to protect level crossings.

    • @Luigi-uj5ml
      @Luigi-uj5ml Год назад +3

      In fact, in the railway station in question we do not notice the exchange of the token (or the pilot stick) between the traffic operator (in Italy station master or movement manager) and the train driver. Therefore I suppose that at that moment the railway station was actually "disabled" and excluded from the distancing (that is, it did not perform the function of the blocks-system consensus exchange point, through the token-block or similar).

    • @Luigi-uj5ml
      @Luigi-uj5ml Год назад +2

      Signalling block systems enable the safe and efficient operation of railways by preventing collisions between trains. The basic principle is that a track is broken up into a series of sections or "blocks". Only one train may occupy a block at a time, and the blocks are sized to allow a train to stop within them. That ensures that a train always has time to stop before getting dangerously close to another train on the same line. The block system is referred to in the UK as the method of working, in the US as the method of operation, and in Australia as safeworking.

    • @Luigi-uj5ml
      @Luigi-uj5ml Год назад +2

      Token block
      Main article: Token (railway signalling)
      Authority to occupy a block is provided by physical possession of a token by train staff that is obtained in such a way that ensures that only one train is in a section of track at a time.
      Ordinary train staff (OTS)
      A driver approaching a single track section would get the token, and uses it as the authority to enter the block section. He would surrender the token at the other end of the section. This caused problems if one train was to be followed by another in the same direction, as the staff would not be at the correct end after the first train.
      Ordinary train staff and ticket (OTST) or (OTS&T)
      Ordinary train staff (OTS) was therefore extended: if one train was to be followed by another in the same direction, the driver of the first train was required to be shown the token, but not take possession of it (in theory he was supposed to physically touch the token, but this was not strictly followed). He was given a written authority to enter the single line section, referred to as the ticket. He could then proceed, surrendering the ticket at the other end of the section, and a second train could follow in possession of the staff.

    • @Timsvideochannel1
      @Timsvideochannel1  Год назад +4

      There weren't many trains operating at the time, so there wasn't a need for all the block sections to be operational, some were switched out. When this happens the signals in that section are left in the off position almost as if they weren't there.

    Why does the line speed slow to 15 MPH in so many places?

    • @Timsvideochannel1
      @Timsvideochannel1  Год назад +1

      The railway is built on a relatively steep sided valley next to the river Severn, this has resulted in very slow moving landslips such as the one between between Arley and Highley, which required a £1 million solution in 2017 involving soil nails and sinking new piling sheets. The slower speed does give passenger more time to enjoy the attractive scenery.

      Hi, I started to write an explanation, then I checked my facts to make sure I'd got right, in doing so I found this well written description by David A. Davis, so I just copied and pasted it here - The steam you see coming out from the cylinders is actually controlled by the engineer, via what are called the "cylinder cocks". These are ports in the cylinder that can be opened to allow steam and/or water to escape, and the reason you would want to provide them is simple. When starting, a locomotive's cylinders are relatively cool compared to the incoming steam, and water, liquid water, will condense out in the cylinders. These cylinder cocks allow the liquid water, along with some steam of course, to escape, preventing the cylinder heads from damage or being blown off, as liquid water does not compress!

  • @martinbishop3124
    @martinbishop3124 11 месяцев назад

    This could have been a brilliant video, but for the focusing. I'd give it 2 stars out of 5. The video needs to shot again with the point of focus corrected on the camera. The faster the engine the faster the camera has to focus. Consequently, when the engine is moving slowly, everything into the far distance is sharply in focus, but when moving fast the auto focus is only catching up at around 25m away. Just watch the video and at speed you will see the middle distance completely out of focus, only to snap into focus when the engine reaches less than 20/25m distance. This does not make for pleasurable viewing. I would suggest turning off the auto focus and focusing on the hyperfocal distance.

    • @Timsvideochannel1
      @Timsvideochannel1  11 месяцев назад

      Hi, thank you for the advice. This was filmed with a GoPro 11 camera, it uses a fixed focal distance and the result when played directly from the original footage is both good and in focus, although ideally the camera should have been mounted higher. The footage played back from RUclips is never quite as good as that I upload. If the chance comes my away again, I will shoot this film from a higher position. Cheers. Tim.
