Hi, I love reading about your days working for Indian Railways. I hope you are as happy in your retirement as you were working for the Railways. I had intended to join an Indian rail tour, including the Shimla line, but for now Covid it is likely to cause it to be cancelled, hopefully I can do it next year - www.railwaytouring.net/golden-triangle-with-shimla-3-21 The tour included steam on the main line and on the Shimla railway. Take care and stay safe. Tim.
Hi, the people at the Bluebell Railway do a first class job in recreating the past, the stations often appear in British crime and detective series on TV although the names are changed, the filming helps towards the cost of keeping the railway looking good. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Hi Brendan, I'm glad you enjoyed the ride. My favorite signals are those just north of Horsted Keynes as the train runs towards the station, there is even a platform number indicator.
Hi, this railway is in my home country, England. We are very fortunate to have a good number of excellent heritage railways, many of which I haven't visited for a while because I usually spend a lot of time travelling to places like New Zealand, Australia and all over Europe. Covid has stopped me from travelling and now Britain is opening up again as a result of a successful vaccination program I'm taking the opportunity to see local attractions such as the Bluebell Railway.
I grew up in and still live in Sussex, when I return from travelling and catch the train past Arundel castle, I realize there aren't many places I'd rather call home.
Hi Ted, the condition of the locomotives, carriages and infrastructure reflects the care and dedication of the volunteers and staff on the Bluebell Railway, the're recreation of the railways of yesteryear is a credit to everyone involved.
Hi, I hope you are keeping well. This railway is only 40 or so miles from my home, so when I heard about this event, I simply had to visit, I'm glad I did, the railway put on a first class show. Take care and stay safe. Tim.
Hi Tim! Wonderful to see how the machines and wagons are maintained and refurbished. Traditionally, you can also see the well-tried handover of keys, which avoids incorrect journeys. Best regards from Hans from the Mühlviertel🇦🇹. Cheers 🍻
Hello Hans, it is nice to see this railway keep the old traditions alive, especially passing the skills onto the next generation to keep the railway running for many years to come. I think you would love to work the in carriage restoration shop, so nice to watch the skilled carpenters going about their trade. Take care. Tim.
As estações, onde passam os trem antigos, bem preservadas. Os trem antigos, funcionando muito bem, não dando nem um problemas mecânico ao longo da viajem. Isto mostra, há preservação da história de um povo, que ainda tem em suas veias o passado no presente. Continuando assim, o futuro será belo. Parabéns, por mais uma bela imagem e, um, de paisagem.
A preservação da ferrovia junto com as locomotivas e carruagens é ajudada por um esquema de aprendizagem que visa passar as habilidades necessárias para manter tudo em ordem na próxima geração para que a ferrovia continue funcionando por muitos anos. Museus estão bem, mas museus de trabalho de verdade são a melhor maneira de ver e experimentar o mundo em que nossos antepassados cresceram. Preserving the railway along with the locomotives and carriages is helped by an apprenticeship scheme aimed at passing the skills required to keep everything in working order on the the next generation so that the railway will continue running for many years to come. Museums are OK, but real working museums are to best way to see and experience the world our forefathers grew up in.
Hello Julie, I've just returned home after a most enjoyable day at the railway. They were running an intensive timetable with 4 sets of coaching stock in operation and 6 locomotives in steam. I'm just sorting the video and photos into some sort of order to start editing a video of the event, if all goes well it should be ready sometime next weekend. Take care. Tim.
That's unfortunate, I'm sure it won't be long before they put on another special event, even the regular days can be very rewarding, especially if its quiet, because the staff and volunteers have more time to chat.
Hi Bob, we are used to rain here, although the exhibition fields were too wet for a lot of the non railway activities to take place, a nice sunny day would have increased the visitor numbers. The line finally closed in 1958, although the history of its closure is interesting, please click on this link for a brief history of the line - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluebell_Railway
Hi, I looked up Clive Groome - www.steamway.dircon.co.uk/Clive.html His face is familiar, I spoken to him on several occasions, he always looks happy, I often talk to people, but I'm terrible at remembering names. I'm just packing ready to go to Devon with my wife for 9 days, I've book a B&B with balcony overlooking the railway at Dawlish, whilst I'm in the area I hope to visit the South Devon Railway and the West Somerset Railway, if the weather is nice one day it would be nice to do a Round Robin Trip - Totnes to Paignton in a vintage open top bus, steam train to Kingswear for the ferry to Dartmouth followed by a river boat back to Totnes, when the weather is good, it's nice way to spend a day. My other half likes to visit the pretty villages and walk the coastal paths, it's her holiday as much as mine, besides, who doesn't love a genuine cream tea in a picturesque village cafe?
@@Timsvideochannel1 I figured as much, but wasn't sure. I was asking because I think the Grand Canyon Railway trip is worthy of a video. Maybe if you're planning another trip to the US, you might consider it. Just a thought. It's really the Only scenic train in Arizona that I know of. Cheers.
@@joydivisionisnotdead67 I'd like to return to USA some day, not just for the trains, I'd love to visit Yellow Stone Park. I've seen videos showing the Grand Canyon Railroad, It certainly looks worth a visit. Take care. Tim.
@@Timsvideochannel1 As far as I am concerned, the western half of the U S is by far the most beautiful. Pretty much everything west of Kansas (which Americans pronounce incorrectly btw) is breathtaking, because every state has big mountains, forests, rivers and lakes. The down side is the lack of scenic trains. That being said, all of our National Parks have great shuttle bus systems in place. I only have been on the GCR, and it was really nice. Always nice chatting. Take care, as well.
@@joydivisionisnotdead67 Thanks for the advice, big mountains guarantee hard working trains, I'll be looking to book something, maybe as soon as next year so long as there are no new restrictions on travelling. The guy I know who arranges rail tours to the USA lives in New Zealand, so I'll have to wait until New Zealand lifts its draconian travel restrictions. Likewise it's good to chat. Take care and stay safe. Tim.
Hi Julie, I do have a Facebook channel - facebook.com/timsvideochannel1 Running this RUclips channel takes most of my spare time, so I don't pay as much attention to my Facebook channel as I should.

Great video... Thank You... For both parts...
Thank you, I'm lucky to live within an hours drive of this fantastic heritage railway.
Love the part where Henry and Colleague walk onto the platform at Grinstead, I'm definitely a Henry fan
Hi, which one is Henry?
The one with the token, my partner talked to him time before last
@@julieblenkinsopp1690 Got it, the guy walking past the seat at 10:27, boiler suit and a tie, that's a combination you don't see very often 🙂
That's the one 🙂
That's right
They really put their All into this place. From the trains to the stations to the uniforms, everything looks great. Talk about Nostalgic..

Great video thank you, and some spectacular camera work too. There's some superb signalling in this line.

Thanks so much! Wonderful video, Tim.
Thank you, I am pleased you enjoyed it.
That brakevan ride was good value for money! You usually go up a siding and back, but that gives you a proper tour of the place
I've done several brake van rides at the Bluebell Railway, but this one was by far the longest and using platform 1 was a very rare event.
Thanks for the videos Tim
You are welcome, I'm pleased you enjoyed them 😊😊
Hi Tim, we went today, 10.00 train, Southern 847, had a nice journey, and took some pics in the steam works
Hi Julie, I hope you an enjoyable day on the railway, 847 is a lovely engine, Southern colours suit it.
We hope to go again before Christmas, just on a regular day
We had a Good dah
This is amazing! I'm glad I live in Sussex, takes me back to my childhood
I grew up in and still live in Sussex, when I return from travelling and catch the train past Arundel castle, I realize there aren't many places I'd rather call home.
Hi Tim, Great video. The restoration of the engines and coaches is wonderful. Thanks for the tour. Ted

Hello great video , like my friend
Thank you, it was an excellent day out.
Another series of videos I love. You did a great job in filming. Tyvm for haring. Be safe in your travels. God bless.

I Guess you're making more videos this weekend, Tim.I looked on the webcam and spotted 3 different trains
Hello Julie, I've just returned home after a most enjoyable day at the railway. They were running an intensive timetable with 4 sets of coaching stock in operation and 6 locomotives in steam. I'm just sorting the video and photos into some sort of order to start editing a video of the event, if all goes well it should be ready sometime next weekend. Take care. Tim.
Terrific film Tim !! This was one of the highlights of our UK trip in 2019. James.
Thanks, I'm pleased you enjoyed it and I'm glad it bought memories from your own visit to the UK.
Would have loved to have gone this weekend Tim, but I am working
That's unfortunate, I'm sure it won't be long before they put on another special event, even the regular days can be very rewarding, especially if its quiet, because the staff and volunteers have more time to chat.
Hi tim,Shame about the rain but it was still a great day out,What year did they close this beautiful line down?cheer's bob.

Have a Good time Tim, and Your Wife,
25:46 I thought that was a bottle of gin they'd provided, but I think it's sanitizer
A bottle of gin would have been a nice touch, but you are correct to identify it as hand sanitizer.
We are going back on the 16th
Hi, I hope you enjoy your return visit, I'll be going on the 9th Oct for the "Giants of Steam" event featuring a couple of visiting engines.
I've been meaning to ask you, do you film all of the videos that you post, or do you also post videos from others?
Everything I post is filmed by me.
