I really wish I was old enough to remember some of these locos when they was working (not that you should wish to be older of course). Sadly at 35 I am only really old enough to ever know these as heritage pieces. I just about remember the early Blackpool trams being run daily and they are now run as heritage, that is about as close as I get.
The cameras I use are supposed to have hydrophobic glass, and I have seen water roll off them in the past, but I think the lake district was just a bit too much on this day. I have an entire run that I had to delete because it was a lot worse 😔
@neilforbes416 simple solution simply place a plastic bag over the camera and lens. Next cut a hole for the lens to poke through and secure it with elastic bands. Your lens will stay dry
Lovely.
Thank you 😁
Lovely video. When I was last there it was pouring with rain!
I love that the wet weather just shows this place in a different light, not worse but different.
Nice video sir
Thank you 😁
The end of the line looks a bit hairy😊😊😊. I worked at BICC Erith 1962/1968, remember Sir Tom and WOTO Well, oil fired and 3'-00" gauge as I remember.

Looks like the weather's been a bit wet! Careful now, you don't want these locos and carriages to shrink from spending too long in the wash, now! LOL😁
I also don't think I've fully dried out yet 😂
@@TheTouristLine Take a turn in a spin-drier. That ought to do it!😁
@Neil Forbes or taking it a *spin* dry 😂
Wagga miniature railway is under water
@@top40researcher31 Give 'em some SCUBA gear!
11:08 You might want to get something to stop the drops of rain getting on your video camera lens, perhaps.

@@top40researcher31 Bad idea! The image would be wrecked because the camera is viewing the image through the plastic.
@@neilforbes416 there is a cut a way for the lens
