The more I look at it, the more I'm convinced this is from some other rail system, if you look at the bottom of the picture the tracks 'end'. So this is meant to be a terminus by the looks of things, the track also doesn't look like standard plarail. So maybe it is from another maker instead and has either standard type plarail connectors at the other ends or he's used some form of adaptor. Either way the more I look at it the more I like it Big Grin

hello everyone, hope all is well with all of you.

this video is "old" stuff. and is NOT custom made

i cannot say off the top of my head, what that "White knapford" station is or where its from.
my guess... a hospital set. there are a few. there is a set, with "hospital" cars and an airport.
that would put this particular video in a designated timeline.
namely early 1980's

however, i thing did catch my eye.. that satellite station
any info on that would be sweet.

1 thing that's perplexing me...
many say the "domes" are different.
i may be rusty, even out of touch, but i see no difference between these domes or any domes that are similar

@Trevor

Could you please give us more info on these "Hospital Sets" you speak of? Pictures or Links would help.


@ Nigels

I believe those are Plarail Tracks just not the ones we are use to seeing. They are also do not look part of that station.


@Leyland

As far as using Google to write the maker of the video, I don't like using a Translator to send messages in another language as I always fear the writing in the translation I may be offending someone or misunderstood and I have now way of knowing. I basically only use translators for me to read what others say in a different language.
i will try
but i can DEFINITELY tell you all..

that video is circa 1980's

The description of the video stated the video was uploaded 11 years ago as mentioned previously.
I think this may be what the cars look like from the hospital sets he speaks of, but I am not sure on what they are called?

These hospital sets came with buildings?
Upon further research those tracks might not be Plarail but made by a company called Meiji (a toy candy manufacturer) in Japan. The tracks look to be the same gauge as Plarail. Also pictured is the Plarail Knapford Station which is very much different than whats in the video.
