Great Railway to finish Your Holiday on our Bob.....A very moreish watch indeed....Loved it !! Loved 'Tom Rolt's' varied Whistle tones...perfecto.!! ..Best regards.....Steve.
Left our Holiday Home at 09.15 and we were still in Tywyn at 17.00 what are we like eh?....a wonderful ending to a great week...Thanks Steve for coming along with us....Best wishes....Bob
I really enjoyed all the videos....Glad You all eventually got back to West Wales...I know it was hard to break away from all those Trains !! lol....**Spent the last two Days behind D6575 plus 'TnT' with 6960 'Raveningham Hall' Minehead to Doniford Halt and back..what strange trips .Instead of DMU...Looked awesome though....Steve.
My father, who died in 2015, worked as a volunteer train guard and stationmaster on the Talyllyn railway for several decades during summer holidays. This video brought back memories and I shed a tear - thank you.
I'm sorry that you lost your Father in 2015, but he obviously loved his involvement with the Talyllyn, and I'm delighted that my video has brought back some Happy Memories for you....Bob
Have to admit I've really overlooked and underestimated how really scenic this small line really is, the on train footages prove it all. The Talyllyn Railway really does put itself on the map for railway preservation.
Thanks Ry, it was the First to set the trend for so many others to follow in later years....You must visit The Great Little Trains of Wales sometime....You'll love them....Regards...Bob
It not a face I'm familiar with Andrei, it's strange how all these small Hunslet locos have such a masculine whistle, then a large loco like Flying Scotsman has a Penny whistle peep!...Bob
Very nicely filmed with steady shots and good editing with no beastly music, just natural location sounds which all add to the pleasant, relaxing atmosphere.
The Talyllyn Railway is indeed the inspiration for the Skarloey Railway in Thomas The Tank Engine, almost a 1:1 reference. The only thing that Rev. Awdry changed were the names (he used to volunteer on the Talyllyn) This engine's name is NOT Petter Sam, its Edward Thomas, however once and a while they change the name and give it a face (usually horrifying) in tribute to Rev. Awdry and Thomas the Tank engine in general.
@@DoctorOblivian it's not as bad as Nene valley railway. They have the first ever "Thomas" and it has a terrifying face. The problem is, the face was put on the loco by the author of the books, so they can't really remove it.
The first and still going strong Bob. I hope you all enjoyed your trip to North Wales. You've certainly collected a load of great railway footage in a few days. Many thanks for sharing them all with us. I hope they inspire many folk to pop out to visit a few,. Take care - Chris
Indeed Chris, it's been a fantastic weeks holiday, thanks to Mrs M for her understanding....Sorry for the delay, trying to catch up after my previous Laptop failed on me.....Best wishes...Bob
@@robmasterman There are ladies and there are 'wimmin'. They are mutually exclusive and cannot be conflated. What do you mean by "watch out!!" - for what? - Is that a threat? If so, stuff it & stuff U.
@@freeman8128 Yes, i know, that was meant to be a joke. But fr dude, women worked on the Talyllyn ever since it became a heritage railway. You're gendering a railway, A RAILWAY, and acting as if it's a 'Masculine Activity'. You're acting as if you're at an American Political debate.
Probably fed up with people pointing cameras at her Dave. Looking at the Headboard, it looks like the whole day was operated by the Young members, and an excellent job they did as well....Bob.
Being the oldest preserved Railway in the World Sanjoy, it's a wonderful place to visit, and it's surrounded by beautiful Welsh scenery as well. Thanks for watching.
How is Talyllyn pronounced? I always hear it being pronounced as: Ta-lee-lin, Ta-lee-thlin, Ta-lee-chlin and Ta-lee-klin My humble apologies if I offended anyone
Not at all, split it as follows...Tal as in talcom powder, then y as in er, the final part is the most difficult, put your tongue at the roof of your mouth, and breath out blowing air either side of your tongue, and that will give a very good attempt of Tal Y Llyn, which translates into A high Lake...Hope that helps.
If An individual mans income Raises in poor counntry india we many people can visit here and we travel and enjoy this lovely train. We could only see. Thats our Destiny. We cant afford.
I'm sorry to hear that, but that is where the Internet is a wonderful thing, it allows us to see trains all over the World....Greetings from West Wales.
Just so you know, in your description you've put "Towyn" it's actually spelt "Tywyn". Its the weird Welsh language that does that hahah. Before anyone disagrees, that town has been my holiday town since I was born
A super way to end your series of uploads from your holiday Bob. It' been a real pleasure to see these railways close up and some of them for the first time for me personally. Regards, Jeff.
Thanks very much Jeff, North Wales is a relatively small area, so that you can visit all these great Little Trains of Wales, quite easily, with each one having a character all of its own.....Regards...Bob
Well spotted, but these are spring points, that automatically change when the loco has passed over them, allowing the loco to run round its train with minimum effort.
respected Sir, I would like to tell you that in Indian Railways, changing a locomotive in this manner is considered a mistake and if proven guilty, action is taken against the culprits by the departmental officers🥰
Billiant, thanks for posting this. I can see why Thomas the Tank Engine might have been inspired by this railway. Shame there wasn't a fat controller, but in today's world that would have to be a "calorifically over-enthusiastic team leader".
I seem to recall there was a 'Thin Controller' on the narrow gauge railways of the Isle of Sodor, where the Rev Awdry set the stories using the Talyllyn locomotives
Thanks very much for your kind comments, and that's the wonderful thing about modern technology, we can share material with like minded people all over the World....Bob
You have gone and done it now Bob,we love this railway so much, we will have to make a visit again soon.Your video reminds us so much of our honeymoon at Dolgoch hotel,plus many happy visits with Michelle in our caravan at the Rhydyronen station site and Woodlands,you can see that one at 8.10 in the distance.Did you have a Halo ice cream while visiting? This is without doubt the best ice cream in the world...Thanks for sharing this video.......Best wishes Chris.
How wonderful Chris, happy memories indeed....missed the Halo Ice Cream on this visit as I was too busy filming....we all had a wonderful time....Sorry for the late reply, had to get a new Laptop after my other one gave up....Regards....Bob
A great finale to your holiday Bob, been many years since we rode this one but I feel the lure of those 'Great Little Trains' coming on. Thanks for all your excellent footage which has been most enjoyable & now enjoy a well earned rest!! Regards, Brian.
Thanks Brian, each one is something special in it's own right, and with so many to chose from....it's absolutely wonderful...so go for it...you know you want to...Best wishes....Bob
If I stepped onto the ladder, then pulled on the handle, as if I tried to tilt the train over, would the locomotive ever tip if someone put force on stepping aboard? (Obviously I wouldnt want to derail a train)
Wonderful photography. Brings back memories of a school trip ( Chorlton Grammar School, Manchester) to the Tallyllyn railway in about 1953/4. I think that our woodwork teacher -surname Lloyd- was a member of the preservation society which is how we got to go. I have one small B&W photo showing a saddle tank locomotive and carriages with a header board which I cant read. Looks very much like Peter Sam. I now live in Western Australia so no chance of seeing it again in person.
How wonderful that this has brought back Happy Memories to you out there in Australia David. Who knows what the future will bring..allowing you to return to the Railway once again. Best wishes from Wales.
What a great ride you had on this trip, Bob. The countryside that you went through was beautiful. Some great shots of other engines and carriages, especially the one for wheelchairs. Not many have that. Enjoyed all the videos of your holiday. Regards, Mike.
They were wearing those lookalike faces when I visited. The Rev Audrey, was influenced by his visit to the Railway to write the wonderful Thomas the Tank Engine stories.
Apart from a bit of rain, you seem to have had a great holiday, Bob. Nice to see the intermediate stations on the Talyllyn Railway getting quite a few passengers. Best wishes...Mervyn
The whole week exceeded expectations Mervyn, as most of the Railways were not planned when we booked the holiday, especially the two Main Line runs...Regards...Bob
I don't know if it is just me, but what I find very appealing about narrow gauge railway, is that it's a cross between a model railway, and a full-size railway!
Bloody beautiful railway and I hope to visit it sometime… btw how did they manage to get Prince (the locomotive) there when his gauge is 3 1/2 inches narrower? Btw I’m from Australia
It certainly is, and hopefully one day, you'll have the opportunity to visit this and several other of the Great Little Trains of Wales. All stock is delivered by Road transport.
Thanks both, I'm totally steamed out, what a fantastic week we've had....Far more trains, thank I'd ever thought we'd see on our holdisay...Regards...Bob
Superb Bob! Very pleased to see the wheelchair friendly carriage. Hope to get there later this year. Do you think the sweety in Peter Sam might be around????
Thanks very much, the youth members of the Railway were operating on that day, I'm sure the young lady in question will give you a smile when you visit....Bob
What a wonderful video! Your camera work is fabulous! Such a quaint and beautiful railway that I’ve never seen before. Thank you for sharing this with us. I look forward to watching your other videos. Keep them coming!
Thank you very much Jeffrey, your kind comments are greatly appreciated. I'm not producing so many videos these days, but there is a considerable cataloge for you to sit back and enjoy, when you've got a quiet moment...Bob
Robert Masterman just to to make things clear my friend my volunteer week was just the one week in 1961! I did work on the Festiniog as a volunteer 1969 to 1975 though.......
It's the home of 'The Great Little Train of Wales' and a haven for Railway enthusiasts Russ...It couples stunning scenery with a variety of Railways, each having a very different character.....Bob
Robert Masterman Glad you have a good visit to the line, I volunteer there when I can. Saw many a familiar face doing what we do - running the railway. Tell more people about it, we welcome all.
Thank you. Amazing vedio. Enjoyed. One small suggestion, vedio need bacround music and commentary needed. So children also can see we Indians like that. Here Thomas and Friends in pogo channel is very familiar. Thanks
The young Crew operating on the locos must be over eighteen, but children are allowed to get on the footplate when the locos are stationary at the stations....Bob
I cried and screamed when I saw Peter Sam's face
That face has caused a lot of comments!
1:36 Thomas and friends, starring Nicolás cage

Awesome video you have done well ...good for you keep up the good work ...cheers
Thanks very much for your kind and much appreciated comments....Bob
8:30 hello skarloey
Hello and thanks for watching.
Lovely thing that they have the same Engine that Peter Sam, the only thing is his unnerving face....
Indeed, it may be a copyright issue, as many have commented on Peter Sam's face concerns them.
GREAT
Thank you very much.
3:48 Oh that diarrhea was wonderful coming out.
Nice one Kameren, well spotted.
Robert Masterman Thank you 🙏
3:08 what is that
It's the Railway's version of 'Peter Sam' from Thomas the Tank stories.
Strange face on the front of Peter Sam...
Indeed Adam, but it all adds character to the locos, without infringing on copyright issues I suppose.
@@robmasterman it is a lovely line
My father, who died in 2015, worked as a volunteer train guard and stationmaster on the Talyllyn railway for several decades during summer holidays. This video brought back memories and I shed a tear - thank you.
I'm sorry that you lost your Father in 2015, but he obviously loved his involvement with the Talyllyn, and I'm delighted that my video has brought back some Happy Memories for you....Bob
Ohh. Sad. God bless you
Really I enjoyed it. My father was Indian Railway. Now he is no more
There is an old man with gray hair on the platform and he also controll the switches, he looks very kind. I think it's your father's image.
Have to admit I've really overlooked and underestimated how really scenic this small line really is, the on train footages prove it all. The Talyllyn Railway really does put itself on the map for railway preservation.
Thanks Ry, it was the First to set the trend for so many others to follow in later years....You must visit The Great Little Trains of Wales sometime....You'll love them....Regards...Bob
Enigmatic expression on the face of Peter Sam. There seem to be two whistles on Tom Rolt; nice Stanier hooter it has.
It not a face I'm familiar with Andrei, it's strange how all these small Hunslet locos have such a masculine whistle, then a large loco like Flying Scotsman has a Penny whistle peep!...Bob
it kinda sounds like a southern whistle to me
One is a Stanier hooter, the other is a Puffing Billy whistle from Australia
Very nicely filmed with steady shots and good editing with no beastly music, just natural location sounds which all add to the pleasant, relaxing atmosphere.
Thank you for your kind comments, I'm pleased you've enjoyed my work.
Yes x 100 NO background music except the singing of the wheels and other parts of the mechanical orchestra. ..from Levin NZ
I love how they have an engine named "Peter Sam" as either a reference or inspiration for the Thomas character.
This Railway was the inspiration for Rev W Audry's Thomas the Tank series of books, hence the familiar names on several of the locos....Bob
Robert Masterman why are you saying Bob?
The Talyllyn Railway is indeed the inspiration for the Skarloey Railway in Thomas The Tank Engine, almost a 1:1 reference. The only thing that Rev. Awdry changed were the names (he used to volunteer on the Talyllyn) This engine's name is NOT Petter Sam, its Edward Thomas, however once and a while they change the name and give it a face (usually horrifying) in tribute to Rev.

@@DoctorOblivianDo they change his funnel to match the Giesl Peter Sam got after his accident at the slate quarry?
@@DoctorOblivian it's not as bad as Nene valley railway. They have the first ever "Thomas" and it has a terrifying face. The problem is, the face was put on the loco by the author of the books, so they can't really remove it.

Peter Sam looks creepy as hell with that face.....
Probably designed with adults in mind!

Next year will not pass without me going on this line. It's beautiful! Thanks for the upload!
You wont't regret it...wonderful Welsh hospitality, and stunning scenery.
Cute little railway originally built to haul slate from the quarry.
Why today must there always be girls pushing in on masculine activities?
The ladies are a force to be reckoned with, so watch out!!
@@robmasterman There are ladies and there are 'wimmin'. They are mutually exclusive and cannot be conflated.
What do you mean by "watch out!!" - for what? - Is that a threat? If so, stuff it & stuff U.
Fun fact, ships and engines are refered to as 'she', so your comment makes no sense.
@@ukaszwalczak1154 Wake up. I was referring to girls and 'wimmin', not ships and engines.
@@freeman8128 Yes, i know, that was meant to be a joke. But fr dude, women worked on the Talyllyn ever since it became a heritage railway. You're gendering a railway, A RAILWAY, and acting as if it's a 'Masculine Activity'. You're acting as if you're at an American Political debate.

And what a smile
It was YMG day, but not operating the whole railway with YM's
Yes it was sir!
Super railway, well preserved, with nice young staff. Would certainly love to see and ride
Being the oldest preserved Railway in the World Sanjoy, it's a wonderful place to visit, and it's surrounded by beautiful Welsh scenery as well. Thanks for watching.
Goodness me, Bob, what a wonderful holiday you've had. And a great record of it in your videos. Keith.
It's been a wonderful holiday Keith, most of which was completely unplanned, but I am delighted with the opporunities that arose...Regards...Bob

He would indeed, and of course this line is what gave him the inspiration for the Thomas Books....Bob
I think he worked here when he was alive. So, he did see it.
Them eyebrows
Indeed lol....Bob
A similar railway in Australia is Puffing Billy on the outer suburbs of Melbourne.puffingbilly.com.au/en/

very old train. all employees are old too except train driver is a beautiful girl. looks like child play. awesome video man.😍
Thanks Charle, glad you liked it.
It’s a shame what they’ve done to Peter Sam, I honestly wish it didn’t have the face. Gotta appeal to kids I guess.
I don't think I've had one comment that was complimentary about that face, but I suppose it's their decision. Thanks for your comment.
Just so you know, in your description you've put "Towyn" it's actually spelt "Tywyn". Its the weird Welsh language that does that hahah.
Before anyone disagrees, that town has been my holiday town since I was born
Sorry about that, I miss-spelt it in the the description but not in the titles, and being a Welsh Speaker, I should have known better!
If it's your "holiday town", try NOT referring to the Welsh language as "weird". That's disrespectful & culturally arrogant.
A super way to end your series of uploads from your holiday Bob. It' been a real pleasure to see these railways close up and some of them for the first time for me personally. Regards, Jeff.

was the ffestiniog railway not the first preserved railway?
The Ffestiniog is the oldest independent Railway, but the Talyllyn is the oldest preserved Railway in the World.

If I stepped onto the ladder, then pulled on the handle, as if I tried to tilt the train over, would the locomotive ever tip if someone put force on stepping aboard?

It's the home of 'The Great Little Train of Wales' and a haven for Railway enthusiasts Russ...It couples stunning scenery with a variety of Railways, each having a very different character.....Bob

It's the face of Peter Sam, although not one I've seen before.
Peter Sam has fallen on hard times as of late...
Good video Bob. I visited this line about 10 years ago.
Thanks very much David, with each Railway having it's own distinct character, they're always worth a visit.

Thanks Max, much appreciated.
Thank you. Amazing vedio. Enjoyed. One small suggestion, vedio need bacround music and commentary needed. So children also can see we Indians like that. Here Thomas and Friends in pogo channel is very familiar. Thanks
Jesus! Over here in the United States, you're lucky if you're under 18 and allowed in the cab of a steam engine!
The young Crew operating on the locos must be over eighteen, but children are allowed to get on the footplate when the locos are stationary at the stations....Bob
When I was 5 I got to be in the cab of a diesel engine and blow the horn.
Nice to see the ladies doing the work.
It looked at though the railway was operated by the young volunteers on this day Doug, with both sexes playing their part without fault....Bob
