SUMMERLANDS CHUFFERS

Pine Tree Junction Videos 1

To honour the work of the Lindsay Newton's Pine Tree Junction team, I have created a page for their unique style of live steam garden railway video. These create a magical atmosphere and are primarily aimed at the younger train enthusiast.

 

Pine Tree Junction is also world famous for their wonderful series of Thomas the Tank Engine videos, so if you have youg children or grandchildren (or want to see what can be achieved with these superb models) go to their PineTreeJunction  Channel on Youtube here.

"Come and join the Charnwood Forest Garden Railway - Summer Steam Spectacular and celebrate the wonderful hobby of miniature steam railways. All the 'live' steam locomotives in this video have been made by Roundhouse Engineering in Doncaster England, and represent 30 years of expert manufacturing. Listen as they steam around the railway, all fitted with their Summerlands Chuffers, for what was the largest gathering of Roundhouse locos at the Great Central Railway's Rothley Station - ever!"
