A Goods Guard and a Passenger Guard - the latter being the elite of railway workers. Often paid 30s a week which was more than some Stationmasters received! No wonder he has a bit of swank.

A Victorian Railway Porter on parade at the Bury Transport Museum. I think I'm turning in Jeremiah Harbottle. Answers on a postcard please.

Blasted lack of polls, On the one hand I want to make a video about the Railzeppelin, but then I looked and one was uploaded, like, two weeks ago by a larger creator. But also I kind of want to cover more train games but the ones that interest me are all cozy games so there's only so much to say...

Activate cloaking field!

Last art of 2025.

More than a bit nippy! Freezing outside and inside! No steam heat, and running 40mins late at least. Brrr!

Steam trains seem to be tied to the December season, be it through decorations, Santa Specials or a handful of Christmas films. But why is this the case? Has this always been the case? And what is the situation like in the Southern hemisphere? youtu.be/DSLVcdf5Tag

Can't make money off this video anyway - have some SFM train drifting

I like this livery, could be better, but overall not too bad. Does feel like it was designed for more blocky units though.

There's a funny moment in railway where the fastest Swedish steam locomotive ever had more members built for the Dutch national rail system than would ever be built for any Swedish company! youtu.be/xUEmU5xjuEA

you KNOW I'm posting the SFM version once Dec 5 has passed

here is this guy

Burning tyres again.

Notice how this is unpleasant when loaded upon you because it is a matter of consent. When such a modeller keeps to themselves, or otherwise merely documents their own stuff and doesn't comment on other people, they, hands down, make better model railways than often times a whole club can muster.

very boring lecture lol

Trundling down the tramway #SFM #3D #Trains

I might have disappeared for like 2 months again but hey at least I spent that time productively

What's larger than a Simplex, smaller than a Gronk yet precedes and outlived both of them? Why, a Sik of course! One of NS's great successes! youtu.be/M4Hz7uF0pqQ

The Locomotive - 1922 https://botfrens.com/collections/173/contents/1208010

To some of you, she's old news. Yet whenever I manage to track her down, she's always inaccessible! But at 102, could she evade me forever? youtu.be/YBmWN28Mx18

I think the channel has entered a new era. I used to be quite punctual about upload schedules and topics (mostly...!), not to mention me going out to film as much as possible. But YouTube has become more labour than love. I've already passed 20K, my only goal, so I am to relax the reigns a bit.

Some of the full size wooden models of historic locomotives the Baltimore & Ohio had on display at the 1904 World's Fair.

After 20 years of not having built a LEGO train, I gave it another shot. How has LEGO improved over the years? And can someone even review LEGO trains like one would model trains? #LEGO #trains youtu.be/lo9aqiKl6TE

Had a video planned for tomorrow - will come out eventually but delayed, I was not able to record the debrief today

Not me who just realised that it's more cost effective to buy a LEGO(r) train set, keep the Powered Up elements for later and salvage the rolling stock from it than it is to outright buy a third party locomotive and motorise it yourself

A few years ago, my art peaked I guess lol.

I've tried every hotfix, trouble shoot and reinstall. I've taken out all my mods and tried again, but SFM crashes within seconds of giving it a command or changing a path. I'm at a loss. This can't possibly be the end, but I think I'm going to put a pin on original creations for a while. I'm sorry.

Tis only YouTube's finest tradition to conduct a Q&A when passing a milestone - so let's have at this then! Once again, thank you for 25.000 subscribers. Never in my wildest YouTube dreams did I imagine this could happen. youtu.be/TuCyM7NQdzg

Commission for the amazing @alanthefisher.bsky.social for the first video in his series about US railways electrification. It's really good, you should go watch it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nym3...

My first steam game ISLANDS & TRAINS has just released!! What began as a tiny hobby project has grown into something that I'm so thankful, excited and proud of. It would mean the world if you could give this a repost and try the game on Steam 💌🌻 s.team/a/1957760

Blue Landscape (2024)

Never thought I could reach 25.000 subscribers - yet, here we are! To celebrate, let's have a look behind the curtain of FlyingScott, and muse over some of my most-used footage! youtu.be/vEzAlUJcr24

Some really old illustrations from a series I did about a decade ago. #illustration #penandink

I know some of yous are real into your LEGO or other assorted yet matching types of building blocks, what are some of your BlueBrixx recommendations?

Tornado this morning at Newcastle Central. Camera is shaky but...that's just my hands lol. Still, a real good show, and look at that paintwork. 👌

Pardon me for wanting to save the formalities for the actual Special, but we seem to have surpassed 25.000 subscribers. So, considering it is YouTuber tradition, if you have any questions regarding anything FlyingScott, please feel free to shoot your shot! Q&A goes live 19/05

I always wonder why people act like it is impossible for me to not have a good experience with Rapido Like whenever someone says "You should get the Rapido such and such" and I say "I don't buy Rapido" it is always WHAAAAT? WHY WOULDN'T YOU? THEY TAUGHT MY KIDS HOW TO READ AND MY WIFE HOW TO LOVE

My favourite episode is the one where Poirot gets a shoulder-mounted cannon.

After having a bit of a laugh last week about the existence of ""stolen"" Great Northern Railway Pacific ""drawings"" to be sent off to that little ""spur"" off the Furness Railway, this week we'll take a closer look at the early LNER Pacifics! youtu.be/YRyurd1n9xw

Timeline cleanse: bunny eats carrots

Finished another car for my Turn of the Century train, so another run from last night.

A long time ago, Fraserburgh was the final station on the LNER lines north (we will ignore the West Highland Line being further north as it goes... west). From there, sprouted what was perhaps a branchline even more quint than anything found on GWR metals! youtu.be/8Srho3oaSPM

Time for some doodling I think. www.twitch.tv/old_coal

To build a good 4-6-0 is no mean feat. To build a better version of a good 4-6-0 is even harder. NS was building up a pattern, and with their premier express machine, fell short of the mark. For the final 4-6-0 of the trilogy, the NS 3900. #Trains #NS youtu.be/xGcgSFkGIkY

Hi ho hi ho it's off to York I go. What fun everyone. If anyone fancies a pint later let me know - I'll probably need it

410 LNER B1s built? Small potatoes. 800-odd LMS Black 5s? Psh, cute. Try just shy of 4000 Prussian P8s. Now THAT's a mass-produced 4-6-0! For this week's ten-wheeler, lets look at something borrowed - or more specifically, who did in fact borrow them! #Trains youtu.be/yAwyZcNBbX4
