ABANDONED RAIL TRUCKS

A walk around the MOD at Rhydymwyn, which you a pass to enter, was v very interesting and somewhere I will need to book onto the guided underground tours as & when they are published. After this, we ventured into the woods walking towards Mold to see the abandoned railway & trucks. Shame about the graffiti, but unfortunately part of everyday life wherever you go these days.

One of those locomotives is a rare survivor of WW1 very rare it needs to be recovered and restored Originally they had a petrol engine and were used close to the front lines brining supplies forward it’s quite a find

Absolutely agree. Fantastic history, but such a shame to be left abandoned in the woods.

Great edit and fun day out!

Cheers Dan, it was a great venture around the area, cheers.👍

That stuff should be salvaged and preserved.

[@Asneakypreview-rr2di]

Yes, I agree. Terrific historical value and would grace any museum 😏

Amazing, personally I think that the "patina" on this equipment is great. Mechanically restored it could be a "Rat Rod" railway. To me the nostalgia is lost if everything is restored to a like new condition. 👍

[@Asneakypreview-rr2di]

Yes true Shawn. Interesting thoughts and idea, thanks for watching🙏👍

Where is it? What was it? It interests me……

[@Asneakypreview-rr2di]

Hi Ian, it is situated in the woods between Rhydymwyn & Mold in North Wales. Some believe it was used for transportation of the mustard gas from the MOD depot at Rhydymwyn & the Factory in Mold, but not 100% sure to be honest.👍

Although it would be nice to get more appreciation for the videos, it doesn’t really bother me too much as it may do for others. It is a bit strange, for the want of a more appropriate phrase though that two videos have gone nuts compared to the usual average viewing figures for this small channel. Thank you for your interaction & comment, much appreciated 🙏👍

[@Asneakypreview-rr2di]

Yes,I thought it looked like armour plating & totally agree it should be recovered & cared for in bringing it back to life so to speak. Thanks for watching & your interaction Phil, much appreciated 🙏👍
