On the evening of 20th April 2022 the South Wales to Chirk Log Train failed. It spent 24 hours in the loop at Woofferton. I took the Camera down and made this vlog.

Keith, I loved this for the total obscurity and banality of the subject versus the effort going into documenting it. It's the sort of thing that will be useful to digital archeologists in the future. Two suggestions, one serious, one less so, for the next time:

1. Add timestamps to each pic/vid
2. A nice soundtrack like "The Fletcher Memorial Home" by Pink Floyd

Thank you for your suggestions.

You are right, the Story could be told clearer with timestamps. I will see if I can remake it with those added.

Have you viewed any of my other Videos? Comments welcome.

I am less enthusiastic about added music thou......sorry

How about Soft Machine's 'The man who waved at trains' which John Peel described as having a pleasing air of melancholy?
