If it came off the tracks nowadays, They would likely fire the Engineer for incompetence. "We have always done it that way with no problems."

Just like after air raids during the war with bits of wood and brick holding the tracks up

My first though t was exaggeration by foreshortening, but no...

I think the cuts hide the driver coming out and taking a long stare at the tough bits.

And the answer is 'because he went very, very slowly'

Presumably this sort of track is only used a few times a year? I expect the cost of the occasional excursion to get a gang to re-rail a loco is less than re-laying teh track, even with rail that seems to have been borrowed from the Talyllyn.

Neil, it was done using 'super slow-mo', the actual speed was 150mph..... with his eyes closed.
