00:00 Hello, we are here at Edmonton station and we have just seen Sir Nigel Graslie. Now I
00:13 was told I really wanted to do a live video for you but it would not get working, I would
00:17 just go round and round and round and it would not work and usually I have to do all these
00:20 little things to set it up and I don't know how to do it because my mother does that so
00:23 also she was busy filming. It basically never happened because it wouldn't work anyway so
00:26 we would start doing that so I do apologise for that but it doesn't matter because you
00:30 are still getting the video and we are going to be on the set, we actually are going to
00:35 be on Sir Nigel Graslie meaning it's in it, isn't that exciting? And we are going to see
00:39 it coming down, get nearly deaf and aided but the very very exciting thing is Sir Nigel
00:45 Graslie is gone now but I am afraid to say, or am I afraid to say, Scott Scoutsman is
00:51 coming! Are you sure it's Scott Scoutsman? According to my good friend who says it's
00:58 him. I always tell those British Indian lies. I think it's Scott Scoutsman. That's quite
01:03 a surprise isn't it? Anyway there's a steam, another one coming. And then after that apparently
01:11 a train needs to get to Leeds, it's very complicated because of Scott Scoutsman. No it's just a
01:15 passenger train. No no no I'm saying it, Sir Nigel Graslie is gone but then he has to get
01:19 to a petrol station in order for the Scots Scoutsman to set off because there's no signals
01:23 down this line, apparently it's the longest one inside the country. So there's not any
01:28 signals. And then after that one comes a need to get to Leeds running fast so people can
01:32 go to Leeds. So basically. Look at you with all that knowledge. I know, I know, I know.
01:41 So here's Sir Nigel Graslie. Here's Sir Nigel Graslie and then there's Scott Scoutsman.
01:46 British Indian line. H2O. Anyway we'll let you watch the vid. You'll find out. It's great.
01:51 It's awesome. Thank you. You'll enjoy it.
