Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways Quirks II Gala 28th April to 1st May 2017

We didn't take as much footage as we'd hoped as Tom was working at Dinas and Boston Lodge and I was - well, shattered really. Instead, I enjoyed riding the trains, lazing about and chatting to old friends instead of concentrating on the filming.
We'd like to thank all those people at the FR/WHR who worked so hard to make this another fantastic event - we all really appreciate it. Cheers, Dave

Thank you for a brilliant video. Sitting in my lounge I enjoyed every ride. Excellent scenery to.

[@MiRailOfficial]

Excellent Video. I really love that little 0-4-0 No.1.

[@galbeadon]

Another great video. I love that gravity train and the flying goose!

[@jockmichie8811]

I have enjoyed every bit of these videos I was a a team engine driver on west highland line in scotland

[@cr10001]

I guess when your 'ordinary' engines are double Fairlies, the 'quirks' have to be really weird!

[@KlaxontheImpailr]

Yeah like, what’s with the guys dressed as WWI French soldiers?

[@tracynation239]

A premium showing. ♡ T.E.N.

8:07 the baaing sheep make this the single most Welsh thing ever committed to TH-cam

[@muttt.whopull3252]

With what looked like First World war soldiers being chased by chaps on a motorbike, it seemed I was watching an even madder version of Whacky Races!

[@AndreiTupolev]

It does make a good sound. Seems to be capable of handling a decent load too.

TUDO EM MINIATURA... Tudo incrivelmente limpo, organizado, eficiente, produzindo e trazendo muita economia para o país! Deve ser muito bom morar aí.

[@robnewman6101]

You're a really useful railway.

[@joseantoniodesousaantonios8991]

E muito bom viajar de trem !

[@fcukmegently]

Chuffin eck; that's interesting. Love the way the railway is integrated with road & buildings, or visa versa.

[@martyncandler4435]

i have watched a lot of these type of vids and have noticed that hardly any one driving the loco,s are smiling or looking happy, why is that i for one would have mile wide grin and not be bothered if any one saw that anyway great vid as normal

So is Number 4 a tender tank engine? It seems like that tender is far too small to have a water tank in it.

[@harrytodhunter5078]

Yes, Its a saddle tank engine, and the tender is for coal. Its designated a “0-4-0TT”, with TT meaning Tank engine with Tender.

[@DMW-iq2ie]

Harry Todhunter Well you learn something new everyday, thanks!

[@granskare]

I saw a video of people buying a Chinese C2 loco for the Welsh Highland Railway. Is the C2 loco been modified to run on your trackege?

[@otakurailfan]

granskare there's a whole website dedicated to the c2

[@michaelcoker3197]

Goodness, what a noise! Try bells, as we do in the US

[@gustavthemagician]

Bells are for jesters and morris-dancers, good Sir.

[@fcukmegently]

Impressive. Those little engines are SO powerful; look at all the weight they can pull. Quaint beyond quaint; must pop up there soon.

[@samowen187]

in the first clip had 'the goose' been fried? (again)
