Clay Mines, Macaques and Tidmouth Sheds
T9 it’s lost its bits chimney’s gone I mean I found it but it’s an unfinished kit need some super glue Owen’s back up with his Impressions he’s trying to be oh in the incline again there he is going down no don’t do it so we have come to K Castle to scout
Out locations to film the new lswr T3 was not the new one but the newly steamed T3 which will be returning to traffic next week while I been stay in of Mind anyway we thought we’d go and see the U boo which is currently running Today out of 10 it’s going The did they have to whistle right next to us no did they yes did it make me Jump What into the mine it’s not mine but someone owned it at one point oh I know that that’s Jack met him always concerns me when you walk on these floors you just see like daylight down below it’s like ah don’t realize you’re raised up where surprising that who’ have thought
They’ve got dog here what that didn’t happen is it really yeah it’s dog it’s changed a lot though does the site just looks so Different there a truck hoist into there into the N Dragon at the bottom we called it tiny cuz it’s tiny i’ imagine so down we go this is why they said dogs on leads no I’m not made for mining come on my these pools are too Clean wonder how far this still goes now so Russell the engine that’s now at the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway uh used to work here at nordon or F Brook sidings with the clay mines it’s just so strange like obviously you can tell there’s like a big narau influence here
But Russell is such a big Tank Engine it was down here for ages it’s very Strange [Applause] Something I love on old lswr routs is they’ll just paint over the other letters and just have it Sr for Southern Railway train agrees who upset my man Harmon tiny little turntable oh no we’re in the wrong country quick head somewhere else right I go Sh and they’re hardly skyscrapers when the sky up there copied and pasted in my ships too many times everywhere Oh no my Car oh no SC that was such a place jump oh my gosh oh wow okay you’re worry me a bit not much early things to film in pal DEA but this is one little bit of tram line down by the the docks that’s the place to be there you go guide rle
Done hello Portuguese train what’s your name interesting couplings they like partially scre link and partially not I mean they are screw link but they look different they got a handbrake like a p Express just shut that then that be shut it didn’t click I don’t like That thank you train you lie said there was free Wi-Fi there was not but it’s Loco Hall so I’ll take that look old the traines we like those ones please don’t blow the horn that was so loud thank you those in the Wild West it’s so like dry and baren like
Summer but there’s some happy engines Yeehaw we are on our way to the Museo naal ferio which I’m sure you’ll be able to translate as the National Railway Museum of Portugal I’m very excited I know nothing about Portuguese trains so today is the day I’m so glad we were
Able to make it here because uh don’t really know Portuguese can just about possibly speak Spanish and we’ve been trying to do that today cuz we’re like well it’s it’s next to it isn’t it so maybe they’ll know Spanish better than English but it seems a lot of people
Know English anyway we’re like those typical tourists that like you know will say something to them in Spanish or Portuguese and they’ll just reply in straight up English just knowing where we’ve come from I’m sorry we’re not really good at ACC accents not really good at languages in in England are we
We made it to the museum whoa I I didn’t cue that that was that was my chance we don’t know why so dark I can’t see anyway tip for anyone if you’re wanting to come here come by train you get a 50% discount on the tickets apparently Ste this rocket I know that
One that’s not Stevenson ah Vapor steam so many various tools ooh I love that oh it’s a miniature boiler but it’s still huge that’s really fun it’s a naked steam engion don’t look little toy the toy lotive is that what it means a it was a gift from the
King of France to the port his royal family oh wow allowing the princess to play with this modern technology so this was a toy it was just a play thing that’s insane this wasn’t in toy store I love that that’s really sweet it’s so early G surely one of the first miniature steam
Engines that’s nice closeup of the brake Val as well don’t usually see it sort of just disconnected modelers take note ooh I’m Blinded By the Light just one Co Coretta I be quietly in museum so I don’t want to offend anyone and ruin their experience by making cringy jokes hello
Handsome you are lovely wow number 151 oh look at that as I say I don’t know much about like Portuguese steam but this is stylish a lot of brass work to polish my goodness wow that’s that is a lovely design you’re nice too but not as glamorous sorry Trevor’s Portuguese Cousin I’m not sure if we allowed to touch this or not because there’s a handle here can I touch it I’m going to touch It oops not going to touch anymore oh goodness me that looks like a monster here’s our monster this is our tail of the Brave it’s a track lighting vehicle uh you know that makes sense it does look like a glorified wet floor sign but we like look at this wheel this is
Different than anything I’ve seen before usually you have like a very straight axle and you have the bitty bits going off of that but this one has got a curved axle and then they go in a rotation like that like imagine this going at speed that scent of it whoo
Also these wheels are just huge in general wow this huge roundhouse so the guy was just telling us this is actually a rap flier this was built in 2008 the first one was to bonish in the late ’70s but that’s dedication of the team we work at like theyve built a replica of
The Roundhouse what what a chunk ooh look at that sorry I’m nerding out a little bit this might be the biggest tank engine I’ve ever seen that’s massive the Smoke Box looks so much like a Fairley that’s Narrow Gauge that’s massive just got to take a vot to appreciate how they’re all just
Lined up this makes me quite happy I’ve just realized I don’t think they’ve got the same standard gauge as us that explains a lot they’ve got bigger tracks so their engines are bigger what a hive of activity this would have been back in the age of
Steam how loud it would have been it’s very much like a Tidmouth shed scenario here but like all the engines are so close together but you know preparing them in the morning Goodness Me must been loud and very Compact and they’ve got a little pocket
For the brake b a tiny tiny tiny tiny buffers for this thing oh oh they have one of these is it Lucille the one of the north yorksh MOS like a Belgium tram is this from Belgium it is I know trams it’s so hot even the guards owl has died that thing is
Scary tiny little caps for tiny little engines these look like a hella of fun they make the frame so wavy look at this it’s just as hot as it is in this Museum please excuse me I’m genuinely just geeking out walking around I don’t actually know any of the engines in the
Collection here I didn’t know what to expect enjoying it live basically the guide at the entrance said this is the eldest engine hello eldest engine greetings got a very long number 1857 this has built Big driving wheel and Center and I’ve never seen a camp design like
That I it’s coming out too well on the light but you got the Dome and you got a tiny little spectacle in front and then the C roof you got this like really ornate design at the top like it’s sort of a veranda what looks like an electric
Light in the middle which they did not have at 1857 and other than that yes very bare looking cow but very very spacious one to be fair considering especially in the 1850s a lot of the priorities were still on building tender engines pioneering days of steam have a tank engine like this is
Actually an impressive design for like back then also this what is this it’s like all springy it’s on a it’s on a screw I don’t know what this is at all someone in the comments let me know because I can’t ask the tour guide in Portuguese so I won’t find out until
I upload the video what a brute and I’m glad I came down this way because there’s another little engine hidden back here hello I keep saying hello to them and they’re not answering back but also built in 1918 because that makes this the exact same age as Douglas on the
Talis Lin and Duncan on the scar ly I I don’t understand why there’s such a massive Gap in this one look at this the boiler up there and then the frames are just Hollow oh here’s another one of those Wheels where like it turns like that I feel like they
Have another engine and it’s currently missing you could like have a whole bed just sitting on the front of the foot PL there there’s so much room harary of the pigeon everyone it’s poor engines buffers need a manicure look at that it’s chzo cute or trapello is that an L or a
Zed I read it a z well a little bit littlear trapeo sounded cute and they’ve got a very proud tanker over there just sitting right in the center where are you from little guy it is chapell oh it’s an A and cople German many of these little industrial engines
But you’re still special to me continuing on the theme that this just feels like a virtual game when we just build a Miniature Railway they keep the engine just in this little glass cabinet and the whole train and then the railway just comes out and goes straight around that’s so
Strange look at its little shed that’s cute right oh Shar Corners go there’s the Tuk tuck Instead Traffic jam traffic jam they climb the hill so easily they’re like Goats here we observe a British tourist trying to understand the local map where are we we were so hot and bed yesterday we looked into the distance in the haze and we saw that just behind the crane we thought it looks like Rio we’re last swim Rio and then slide to the right
You’ve got the Golden Gate Bridge where are We Ding Ding we all TR Together oh you can’t get up enough of the damn things now they’re everywhere come on traing enough oh God the road LS here it just concerns Me hello my dear friends if you’ve enjoyed this video wandering around trains in the south of England and the south of Portugal then you might also like to know that there is a hugely Extended Cut of this video exclusive to my channel patrons if you follow the

Terrier Travels vlogs travels terrifically into 2024. We’re all at sea in the south for this one, scouting places along the Swanage Railway and then get to check out Portuguese trains for the 1st time! I had such a blast learning about their fabulous collection and I hope you learn something new too.

Can I touch it,
I'm gonna touch it
(Bit of valve gear fall off)
I'm not gonna touch it
Also how many more foreign Duncans do you think this man will find
Hey max what happened to harry fenchurch also what is happening with the new layout
Another fantastic vlog video.
It's always so cool and interesting to see your trips to other Railways. We get to learn about the engines that worked there, what kind of railway related operation they have, and the environment around them.
Plus those silly Macaques.
And interesting to see a real life Tidmouth Sheds at that railway.
Keep up the great work and take care!
Max says we are not in the uk british track layer in the back ground
that'll possibly increase the chance of getting a large audience of viewers and people from Brazil, due to that fact Brazil has a much larger population than Portugal, but also because it is one of the most populous countries in the world. However, let alone the Portuguese would have been such a group of people, who would have been the real derivation of many Brazilians alike. Nevertheless, Portuguese is widely spoken too.
portugal!! i can tell you had fun!!
You should visit the Dutch Railway Museum once. It's very interesting
Cool
10:56 Edwards Exploit π
14:55 I don't know the name for that either, but it looks like a traversable jack. Like you use it to jack a train up, and then use the other screw to shift it over back onto the tracks. Quite useful I imagine
As an American, I love watching these. Got into through the Thomas stuff , stayed for the real world stuff. Succefully have made me fall in love with most of British railways (not BR , just the individual railways) , but now I gotta add Spanish and Portuguese rails to the list
If you want to see more trains, come to South Africa we have a lot πΏπ¦
Journey to the real Tidmouth Sheds
0:28 going down,next stop right to the bottom
4:54 quick head, somewhere else, like the island, sodor
10:56 the drop π
Incredible video!
As a Portuguese myself I am very happy and honored that you chose my country of all countries to visit and see our railway artifacts.
I did go to the museum a few years ago and I can see it hasn't change one bit (minus the tender without its engine in the roundhouse).
Funnily enough the green diesel shunter inside the museum is technically a BR Class 04 just modified to be on Iberian-gauge. Iberian-gauge is the gauge that is used here and in Spain hence its name. And funnily enough the eldest engine on the museum was built in England.
Tho mind you, most if not ALL of the engines here in Portugal are from other countries. Portugal never built any locos as far as I'm aware.
I hope you're able to maybe comeback one day to see the "Linha do Douro" (The Douro Line). It's the line where Portugal's only operational steam engine lives and works at.
I really hope you enjoyed your stay in the small country that is Portugal and I hope Portugal treated you well.
And again, thank you so much for visiting my country.
P.S.
Don't worry about our road laws. They're safe. Some people just drive the way they do in big cities π
I recommend a holiday to East Anglia for a GER holiday.
Here you can find GER L77 No. 999 at the East Anglian Railway Museum, GER S69 No. 1572 & Y14 No. 564 at the North Norfolk Railway, and GER T26 No. 490 & S56 No. 87 at Bressingham Steam and Gardens. Along with those 2 is TERRIER 62 MARTELLO! I also recommend visiting the Colne Valley Railway and the Mid Norfolk Railway.
Wait until you see an NS 6300 class tank engine of you think that is a huge tank engine π
Viva Ronaldo
14:55
I believe its a Rerailing Jack.
Harrogate at the Statfold Barn railway has one too.
apparently not many locos still have them
Hey Stepney, funny that you did exactly what I did last October.. the railway museum of portugal is amazing.. there is a video on my channel of the miniature railway running when we visited and went on it.. also the trams are amazing aswell! Did that to the end of the line when we visited portugal.. amazing machines!! Great video! From the cheeky engine (met you at awdry extravaganza π)
I think you should go see lady Lisa the belgian tram at the lavender line
hey i want to go there
3:03 Aww, small doggo!
It unfair how steam engines have lost their privileges to pull local trains instead they only pull passangers
14:46 itβs a jack, they just put them on the running plate at all times, just in case.
Going down next stop right to the bottom
