Love the music! Hopeful and foreboding all at the same time!

Very cool! In the 70's when I was a young kid, I saw a rerun of the pilot episode. I thought the chariot was the coolest thing ever when they drove it across a body of water.

Ha. That's pretty good.
Good speed and the tracks stayed on.
I would have loved that as a kid.
So tempted to make a brass tube/ copper disc - 5.5 inch time machine like the model in the film.
But I know it would be one huge amount of work.
The idea that it went from the turn of the century England, through time, to my office is still coo. ha.

Blueprints for the 1/10 scale Chariot!!

Now make 1/10 scale Jupiter 2 (just outer hull) and drive this thing onto the loading platform. Coarse now you have to make it with a foldable top so it will fit when you pull it up to be stowed.
