Roundhouse video.

Post by Matt » Mon Jun 09, 2008 9:59 pm

I've just been on the railway channel, and I've found this video about the roundhouse factory in Doncaster.  It shows how they make the engines, and also there's a look at a loco they're going to relaunch.

enjoy!

This was made and appeared on DVD last year, before Taliesin came along. Its is thought that Roundhouse just said they were going to relaunch Argyle just to throw everyone off that they were making a model of Taliesin. Although it might reappear at some point....
"What the hell is that?"
"It's a model icebreaker sir."
"It's a bit big isn't it?"
"It's a full scale model sir....."
