I-m not usually in the country for the Watercress Line-s -Open Weekend-, but this year foreign travel has been off the cards due to Covid, so I took the opportunity to pay an extra visit to the line. Apart from an intensive train service, various behind the scenes locations were open for guided tours. In this video we take a look inside the carriage works and boiler shop to get some idea of the amount of work it takes to keep the trains rolling. All the stations were beautifully presented, the flower beds at Medstead and Four Marks looked particularly attractive in the late summer sunshine, a real credit to the people who look after them. We also take a look at the -Ropley Miniature Railway- including a -Driver-s Eye- view of the extended track. The Watercress Line has matured into a first class tourist attraction; please join me for a look around. To find out more about the line and maybe plan your own visit

Hello Tim, to me, the watercress line is the most beautiful of the historic railways in Great Britain. The name alone (German: -Brunnenkresse-, indicating its former purpose, is unique. Their well-tended train stations, which also show the love the English have for their gardens, go well with this. All in all, this train makes a very neat impression. Many hours of voluntary work are certainly required for this. And again, a look into the workshop should not be missing, where there is still a lot of work to be done. - Cheers, Heinz

Excellent video and the captions provided (in just the right places) were very welcome as not all viewers are locomotive or location buffs.
