Hello Tim, an absolute gem of a video. Next time I'm visiting my daughter in Southsea I think I'm going to suggest we make a visit there. I've always had a passion for railways, small or large, steam even better and in more recent years, probably about 30 or so years, the history of what made this country Great Britain.
I live in Shropshire, so not very far from home we have the Ironbridge Gorge Museums with fantastic items from the industrial revolution.
Seeing that steam roller reminds me of, I think Montgomeryshire County Council who decided to pension off theirs and bought a new diesel road roller but found that it was unable climb a certain road because of the steepness. Apparently after several attempts of trying, they contacted the new owner to see if they could borrow it. Fortunately he had just completed a full restoration which then gave him the opportunity to test it out and some years later the council bought another diesel which then did the job.
Right at the end of the video with the radios and TVs I noticed some real to real tape recorders and the very last one in particular looked very much like a Ferrograph which I have 2 of them, they were brilliant for the day when they were made.
Keep them coming Tim, take care and stay safe.

Thank you Tim for an interesting video. However you in my view did spend rather too much time with the trains, which were not particularity interesting. By contrast the two vintage buses which were operating looked absolutely stunning. I was hoping that you would show the interiors of these vehicles. In the early 20th century, British people rarely (if ever) travelled on narrow guage trains similar to those you depict in this video. But they certainly travelled on BUSES like the Worthing Double Deck and the Southdown Leyland Cub single deck.

Lovely video Tim, a place one day I-d like to visit.
I-m a radio ham so seeing the Radio and TV section at the end was a bonus. There is a permanent amateur radio station there which I think you captured.
Once again, we-ll done. Another really entertaining video

32: 16 I remember a line uttered by Derek Fowlds in an episode of -Yes Minister- where he described something as nonsense by saying it's -a consignment of geriatric bootmakers, a load of old cobblers! - that line cracked me up when I heard it.

Right at the end there, something that fascinates me as a one-time electronics tinkerer. I hope to see more.
