   I remember this ad got it on an old video and transferred to DVD; I used to love my model railway!

   I’ve noticed some mistakes in this ad!

   @0:16, when the narrator said ‘A diesel’, the loco was electric! (pantograph)
   @0:18, “lifting a coach without showing the strain”, the crane was lifting a mineral wagon!

   I like this poem!
