I was also there in time to see the arrival of the late running Kronospan timber train which then set back into the Kronospan siding. A couple of 158`s thrown in for good measure as well.

    The sound seems to disappear for a couple of minutes between 0:36 and 3:26. Other than the loss of sound, this is another brilliant piece by Mr Davies. Really polished, a real pleasure to watch, it gives a real flavour of the day. Its so nice to watch a video where the content is allowed to breathe and stand on its own two feet, without whizzy graphics and mad transitions! And lovely steady shots - some videos the camera operator seems determined to wave the camera about like a flag!! This video is a breath of fresh air. Well up to Broadcast Quality. Well done, as ever Mr D! Kind Regards, Zac

    Llangollen has done an amazing job at Corwen. £2.4 million, including various grants. Of a standard equal to anything Network Rail can produce for probably £15million. Though diesels are also 'heritage', class 31 from 1958, hopefully GWR steam will soon return. From a 30+ years member, well done all, and good luck be with you, onward. Rich T.

      The original station is now a showroom for Ifor Williams Trailers, the railway wouldn't have been allowed there if it was available as the bridge crossing Green Lane would have been too low and impossible to raise the embankment to make it higher.

    A very nice video. When the train approached Deeside Loop on both journeys, the Home signals both displayed a green aspect, with the return journey approach releasing the signal from red. Should they not have displayed a yellow aspect as the Starting signal was at red? Or was the yellow aspect out of use and the signal functioning as a 2 aspect red/green signal only?

    • @DewiHDavies
      @DewiHDavies 2 года назад

      Both up & down signals are are 3 aspect heads but they only display red/green aspects when the signal box is open. The 3rd aspect which is used when the signal box is closed is a white light which is worked from the point detection and proves to the driver that the points are set and locked for the mainline. If no white light shows when the signal box is shut then the driver is obliged to stop and apply point clips to the point blades.
