My son got to sit in and drive that miniature railway 47 a few years ago because he stood talking to the men who ran it. It was a real treat for him. He loved it.

When I visited England years ago I wanted to include a visit to the Museum. However, during our visit from Connecticut we did not have time for a day at the Museum. This was a great tour on KZread. Thank you.

The loco in the North Shed is GNR "Henry Oakley", which is still at the museum but not on display sadly, and the North Staffordshire battery loco and Grand Junction Railway travelling post office at 27:24 were temporarily moved to Shildon, but will be returning after the renovations are finished.

I went there in 1999 as part of a day trip to York. I also remember visiting a model railway next to the station. I live in the US and I was amazed at how simple it was to get from my hotel in London to York all by rail. It isn't something that can be done in most parts of the US. Great video, brings back a lot of memories.

Superb this. Done Bewdley in Shrops and Porthmadog North Wales. Fabulous.

I was there last year with my dad, we both love trains and we both love the museum.

I was there nearly 4 weeks ago and it was absolutely amazing It was my first trip outside my home country Ireland for a few days and it was worth it

I love this place, each time I go to York it's a must have visit, I will not leave York without visiting the national train Musium!!

Thanks for the video Shawn, looking forward to visiting the National Rail Museum for the first time as part of my Railway Studies Masters course.

Nice Video, Thank you for this fantastic Insight/Brief Overview in this. Cheers Peter

My father is senior technician at euro tunnel he is in the over head wires department he's been there 27 years. Glad they have a eurostar in there nown

A fabulous video lads. Well done.

Thinking of visiting Youk next summer. Just a quick comment to say thanks lads for a great video, very well put together and also extremely interesting. Thanks again.

Wow Shawn, you and Alex really passed on some great information here. I'm very excited about the new channel and know that it's going to be fantastic. Well done and thumbs up.

Another great AdventureShawn video Shawn mate.

Thank you you made this very interesting I've been to to the national railway museum a few times I live just an hour away thanks.

Definitely a visit for me and my bf next year. We love trains /trams/planes/ships, in fact anything that moves 😂

Haven't been there for years since I was a child. Its got a lot bigger and so many new areas there and more trains ect. The Victorian era steam trains are just the British history itself. Do like they combine the modern and older trains to. Even got the bullet train to see wow. So many things to see and do.

I hope to travel there one day.

One of the best things about this place is it’s FREE. I’ve been 3 or 4 times & it’s well worth a visit.

Stuck in bed 🛏 after hart surgery living vicariously through your family friendly camera 🎥 lens thank you from my family ❤️❤️❤️🎩🛶

Just seen at 16:29 a plaque about a train being built in 1954 was in Annan in Scotland, thats where I am from ☺️. Nice to see that in a museum. Great vlog, my parents went there few years ago when we were in York for the day

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM! I wanna go there again

The National railway museum is my favourite museum in England

I LIKE YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING AMAZING LIKE THIS VIDEO AND ALSO I QUITE LIKE MY TRAINS SO ILL BE REALY FASCINATED THANKS SHAWN YOU ARE A LEGEND AS USUALL THANKS,JAK X =]

I love trains

"really nice and clean" well being a station in the steam era, it should be anything but clean! 😜

Back from holiday at last, very interesting video ( i have a TPW marathon now )

I loved this kind of stuff since I was a kid, we had a railway museum in Belgium but it closed down

The loco that was taken apart was 60007, Sir Nigel Gresley, an A4 that still runs being restored

I went to National Railway Museum in York during me and my mum's holiday at Blue Dolphin near Scarborough 2 years ago. ;) Loved that place and that was probably the most merchandise we bought during our holiday, probably a bit more than my Haven merchandise.

a very good video thankyou

Very interesting video🥇

I am going there soon!

I've just come back from a 2 week holiday in Florida. Since we went before and did most of the theme parks, we took it easier with us spending the first week in the hard rock hotel at universal Orlando and spent the second week outside of the parks. The weird thing is, I've been to Disney world, universal Orlando, seaworld, legoland Florida and Busch gardens but I've never been to Chessington, Thorpe park, legoland Windsor or Paulton's park.

I have been here 4 times before and I want to go again

Great to see it was enjoyed! NRM is a lovely place! Just to let you know you don't steer a train! ;) On the wheels on trains they are flanged on the inside of the wheel ;)

I love the National Railway Museum, but have only been once! 😀

The Mallard looks amazing. Now I wanna play some Locomotion...

You should go to Visit the North York Moors Railway heritage railway which runs from grosmont where the locomotive depot and rolling stock yard is based down to pickering which is the southern terminus.

When you visit the Netherlands later this year, are you going to visit the railway museum in Utrecht as well? I think you would really like it. It has some rides (like in a theme park) and of course trains you can look at and go inside of. And lots of information (I think all the information is available in English as well). It is a really cool museum!

Hi Shawn. Have you thought of visiting Chasewater? The steam train is really good there. There is a small museum. Could even go on a speed boat on the reservoir. There are two model railways too. I have done two small Vlogs on my channel for Chasewater. It is also from our homeland, Staffordshire.

I love trains, apart from when they're delayed / late.

I watched your Alton towers videos a bit didn’t know you liked trains, I’m also not proper into them but know my stuff like different classes and dmu’s. I’m coming here on Wednesday and heading from Pickering to Whitby on Thursday. And I also have a model railway with an old french hst, class 47 and a class66 gbrf

Hi Shawn, cool history. I would like your opinion on how it is for you in viewing items... do you pace yourself to take in the history of each item then move on to next... do you stop and have a ponder on history/who was there, or some "old school" point like Alex noted on the hand made craftsmanship in the day(?) How best take in each item/pace yourself for exhibits and time sorta question. Thanks....!

That red engine in station room is an lms crab . The train version of lightning mqueen.

Next time you're in Europa Park, you can go to La Cité Du Train in Mulhouse, which is less than an hour away from the park by car. It's the French railway Museum and it's quite beautiful as well.

The railways only became privatised in 1993. Hopefully they will become nationalised again in the next few years.

You need to go to some preserved railways to see steam locomotives in action like the isle of wight steam railway there is ar the moment 4 steam locos that are steam able next year one loco returns to steam, there is a museum and a train story that has to steam locomotive in both waiting for overhaul one out for overhaul (just the Frames the boiler is out side) if there is only one train run the four wheels are in there and the historic goods set is there, class 05 diesel shunter is left in sid for safety for the loco, the state of what the coaches look like before being preserved. A walk in to C&W , shop and a falconry that you need to pay extra for but seeing the birds fly is free to see

I would love to stand in front of the Eurostar

There are a few locos that are on display in the NRM that have permission to run on the mainline also others get leased out to run on some of the countries many heritage railways up and down the country.

I'm sure it was just a slip of the tongue........... but, you don't "steer" a locomotive.

I must bow my head in shame.....for as an American .... our rail network pales so greatly as compared to UKs..... Such great old and new trains you guys got....American railway is junk......so embarrassing .....we have so very little quantity of movie scenes...with American trains...but Britain......so many movies with the great trains and stations of UK....Shylock Holmes movies...with Reginald Owen, and Basil Rathbone....seeing many great London trains and stations.....Greer Garson and Walter Pigeons... Mrs.Minever......also Ronald Coleman Random Harvest...and so many more movies..with British rail.... Beatle's too!!!!.......also Thomas Tank engine....with sir toppem hats....and Ringo.....America should be so ashamed...... ......Also as im from New York in USA....I would like to thank the people of the city of York in UK.....also the Duke of York.......for giving my city oart of its name.....there would be no 'New York'....unless first there was ' York'... So thank you.....I can't imagine living in New Liverpool or New London...New Manchester....New Bristol..New Surrey.....New Kent......New York sounds best.....thank you people of York..... excellent/educational video Shawn good show old man.....good show.....

I'm from Ashford, Kent but I won't say what Road and house :) I would recommend you as American looking around Ashford because it is the only international "town" in the UK, it's a very historic town too, there's an outlet that looks like a HUGE tent, we have the international station that has Eurostar, Southeastern high speed, Southeastern, southern rail UK, Freight trains, Even steam trains, we have little & often buses which is Kents most famous bus livery for modern liveries I'll tell you all the popular bus liveries in kent: Stagecoach in East Kent Arriva North Kent Little & often Celebrating 100 years of East Kent buses The wave buses Fast track Chalkwell Ashford ( now stagecoach/little & often) The breeze And that is technically all popular Kent bus companies Anyways back to Ashford, we have a cineworld cinema and a new one Theres a bus station and there's a huge suburban area By the way Ashford International railway station is a very good station to Trainspot at, there's examples on my channel

I went today. It was brilliant except this American family who was doing everybody's eding and bing rude.
