    That whistle is lovely, those sar whistles are one of the nicest ever designed

      Yeh the whistle really did add something special to some of the clips, very nice sounding!

    in a scrap Yard for 18 years, somewhat it sounds like its lucky its trip abroad failed as it might have ended up abandoned there and possibly scrapped, the little kiddy running for the easter bunny as he wanted to get on the set was Quite funny XD that converted coach for the guard to sit in aswell looks really impressive and so neat and unique

    Hard to imagine that engine comes from one of my local steam railways, Swindon and Cricklade.

    Thank you for doing this for my Dad's engine, it was nice to see the history of the engine which i was not aware of 😊

      He was great to chat to, I think he enjoyed his day on the footplate too!

    It would be good to see Swordfish running on either HM Dockyard railway in Devonport, Plymouth or on Chatham Dockyard railway. Chatham at least has the advantage that it is a museum with a submarine in permanent drydock. A submariners Remembrance service in honour of HMS Swordfish could be held with serving & ex serving submariners in attendance. The hurdle of course, as Ricky mentioned is the transport cost to the site. Thanks to Ricky for keeping this memorial in running order.

    Hi Ollie, an interesting fact that "Swordfish" worked at Stanton and Staveley Iron works in Derbyshire that's just over the boarder from where I live, nice connection to the CVR. A great video Ollie, love the mix of the vintage shots and current day stuff 🤣🤣🤣I hope you and Tianna are both keeping well.

    It looks like that leather? generator belt under the coach needs attention! 🙂 - Nice to see a little steamie doing what it was designed for.

    Great video. I do keep meaning to get up to Hedingham at somepoint as its not to far for me. Ollie do you get involved on the running days volunteering much ?

    • @WardleRestorations
      @WardleRestorations  3 месяца назад +1

      Yes I’m there quite a lot of the running days, whether it’s driving my own loco or working on my own projects / filming, I’m usually about the site somewhere! Just depends if I have to work or not!

      You’re far better at narrating than I! I’ve only tried it last couple of videos, not sure how I feel about it yet!

    Swordfish is a weird name for a steam engine. I think the cutie-pie ought to have been named after you, not your RUclips channel name, rather your real name, Ollie. Any scope of Wardle Wednesdays coming back? I really miss the live streams, I hope they haven't gone forever. Besides, I miss singing, Spin me, Ollie, one more time.
