    Great to see some unusual diesels on the line but the star of this video Admiral was that amazing patriotic waistcoat. Great stuff.

    How many people know that parts of this line ( around Crowcombe) were used by the Beatles during the making of the movie Hard Days Night ..?

    Ohhh NO🥹.. what's all this then ? A DM invasion or something..? Not a single steam loco in sight .... I've never seen so many DM 's in such a short space of time . What's going on ... Those diesel things should be banned from the WSR . Keeping it a steam only enterprise....
    Blue Anchor is my favourite of all the stations along that line ... It brings memories back of when I was younger and spent a week or so with my auntie who lived in that big house called " The Retreat" in Blue Anchor Bay road next to the station ...it's such a pretty spot which meant I was looking at the station instead of those awful DM things 😃.... a good video as always Mike .. but keep it steam 🚂 ....

      When we were looking for a house in this part of the world we got seriously interested in The Retreat which was for sale at that time but in the end couldn't get enough Mortgage for that to happen. There is a great view from there of the railway and the coast.

      It's the Diesel Gala weekend that's why there are so many Diesels and no Steam.

    Hi Mike , Another great video, The dmu is a bit of a puzzle a few people have wondered why it’s not running, it seems to be in the workshop @ Minehead most of the time, a Hst is Due to run on the line over the weekend , also talk of the wsr maybe having a hst permanently on line although that could be a while away.

    Is there a video of showing how the gates work from inside the tower ?

    • @ADMIRALSCORNER
      @ADMIRALSCORNER  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      No, but its a mechanical system where the signalman turns a large wheel to move the gates.
