Railway Adventure
Фильм және анимация
Skarloey and Rheneas are the oldest engines on the narrow gauge railway. Things haven't always been smooth sailing for them though.
Let us step back in time to when the railway was at a crucial juncture.
Watch out for further stories from the Skarloey Railway, coming from other users soon!
This story is loosely based on the history of the Talyllyn Railway as documented by L. T. C. Rolt in his book "Railway Adventure". The culmination of almost a year's hard graft, this project was originally planned to launch back in May, then September, then... well, you get the idea. In fact, it was only signed off complete eight hours before release!
It's not just been me working on this. There are so many people who have been involved behind-the-scenes that I'd like to thank, not least my voice cast:

And now I think it's time for a well-earned break.

0:48 Guy in hat and coat: "Hmm, what's that on the tracks?"
I actually said “HOLY SHIT!” when I saw the viaduct 😂. Impressive set!
2:28 I was going to mention the guy on the tender but apparently there's nothing to see there so I am not sure now.
12 years, that’s a long time to have been going, and even still we find ourselves leading new things say by day. You really have come far from the early days, and it’s an honor to be presented with yet another installment of those little engines
The set design and cinematography were on a whole new level this time, congrats on the amazing episode! The use of more realistic human models almost gives the whole thing a more railway series feel (although the tv series-esque close up human shots are equally charming). Sound design-wise it did feel like there were a couple of spots where the narration/voice acting was a little low in the mix, don't know if it was just me.

Sound mix is definitely something I need to work on. Thanks for the feedback. :)
This was really fun scoring this, you guys did an awesome job with this project, very "Cup of Coffee" like story, Thank You so much for having me! Looking forward to do more in future! :)
That was, outstanding, over the top, masterpiece. i’m so happy someone finally did the event that happened back in 2015, but I was definitely not expecting the second half. What a twist! Stellar set designs from that extraordinary viaduct set, the beautiful countryside, a lively works station, and the surprising gorge from season 5. And i’m guessing this takes place in 1935 or 1945 since by then the railway was facing hard ship, and it seems rheneas is still here. that’s my guess. I’m getting side tracked. Overall This was a video with a heart of gold. Keep up the outstanding great work, to all of those who have take. part in this masterpiece.
12:43 Truly A Railway with a Heart Of Gold!
That was bloody brilliant! I loved it. the angles, the camera work.. the story was sweet too. this was worth the wait l!
Some of these shots are incredible. The viaduct has been mentioned but the track cut in between the cliffs was awesome too! The shot was perfect and was just like a scene from TRS!
Dude. This is your best video yet. The amount of detail in all these shots is just outstanding like damm, I am very jealous! hahaha!
The 1958 Skarloey Railway quarry accident In July, 1958, the SKR’s number 4, “Peter Sam” was damaged in a quarry incident. During a routine lowering of trucks full of cut slate on the Skarloey Railway Quarry (see: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_railway), several loaded trucks were being lowered, when the cable snapped, letting the trucks roll down the hill with no braked trucks on the train. The SKR’s number 4 was struck by 6 loaded trucks. After the accident, extensive damage was done to number 4, with Peter Sam needing a replacement boiler and a new funnel, the SKR ordered a spare Geisel Ejector from the Talyllyn Railway, who’s number 4 had a Geisel Ejector funnel. The accident lead to the SKR purchasing their number 6, “Duncan”.
This was excellent. It wasn’t too short and long enough. Please do more.
Really good job on this Owen, I enjoyed the use of multiple gauges and I reckon you got the Crovan's Gate sets pretty bang on.
what’s funny is that rheneas taking risks is what saved the railway.
Looking fwd to see more...very well presented
Amazing work truly great loved the sun rise shots those came out amazing what's better is I just found this channel
Amazing. You've really come a long a long way from the old days and it shows. Brilliant story as ever.

When The World Needed Them Most They Returned
What camera lense did you use for this? I love how low to the ground it looks. Did you make your periscope lens like how they used in the show?

The 'real' models of the 'real' locos; not a cgi or - lately - a cheap cartoon imitation. The Ringo Starr and Michael Angelis versions were classics of the genre. Now the shows are just another cartoon clip with characters never even envisaged by the Rev. W Awdry.
Im your old series why did make jock and frank narrow gauge

Wouldn't be much point since they're minimum gauge, not narrow gauge.
make your videos in 35 frames. this derail look like just a model.
