Locos - Rolling stock

Last weekend I attended a FREMO meeting in Hanau, with my Isle of Skye Railway modules. There I made a short movie showing my new Class 27 in action.

Very nice looking.

I must admit I do not know much about British rolling stock. What kind of freight cars (trucks) are those?

Thanks for sharing Markus. British railroading has a very unique flavor all it's own. I must admit after traveling to England and riding the railroads extensively to get around, it was very tempting to dive into modeling a British railway. Nicely done!

Great video, Markus. Thanks for sharing.

Geared is the way to tight radii and steep grades. Ghost River Rwy. "The Misty Loggers"

The title threw me off. I saw class 27 and immediately thought of the K-27 Colorado narrow gauge steam engines. I'm not familiar with British prototype, but the modeling and scenery is fantastic!

Thank you for your comments.

Thank you for your comments. The wagons are so called Departmental Wagons, which are used mainly for track maintenance. The Bogie Wagons are so called Seacows, and the two axle Wagons are so called Dogfish.
