I'm a middle aged man who has had a interest in railways from a young age. My videos are mainly days out at mainline railway stations or Diesel/Steam Galas at Preserved Heritage Railways
Thanks for comment @Teamtrains, my Birthday was the 16th ( Friday) bit Barrow Hill not open Fridays so went Saturday 17th. There is still part two to upload yet cheers
😂😂😂 cause it looks like a old cheese grater without a handle and parents will say to their kids "thats what a cheese grater used to look like" cause most modern cheese graters in the shops have a handle on top of them
Very good video there bro.Is Trevor arranging anymore visits to here as even though I been before and in the sheds and some of the yard there were still lots of stuff on your video that I needed.
Great video Andrew!! The fact that you did that magical journey Settle to Carlisle, makes ir very special indeed. Makes sure if time permits you must visit Wemyss Bay
Yes it is run by Mr Andrew Goodman, he is a very nice man always keen to let us look round even if just three of us like myself, brother and dad did last year.
@@andrewscott7092 ah I know Andrew very well, I've done some work with him, if it wasn't for Andrew the Gloucestershire and Warwickshire steam railway would have got as far as it is now,
The next time you come to the severn valley let me know as you could have come up the signal box as i volunteer up there,at kidderminster for the last 5yrs saltley seagull
Peak Rail should have purchased the Woodhead route (which was intact and there for the taking) and run their trains between two great cities. Instead, for 45 years they funneled all their money, time and effort into a totally derelict, impossible pipe dream. What a dreadful, blinkered mistake.
I didn’t know that NER No. 910 was back at Shildon. The worst thing about Shildon is the fact they have a Pacer and a rail bus. Anyone who had the displeasure of riding on one isn’t going to reminisce fondly about it.
Hi Andrew Great Video enjoyed the footage, I think you will agree the Deltic (Class 55 0013) is the Black Watch Regiment) Any way looking forward to more Regards Andy
Yes I seem to recall I called it The Black Witch when I ment to say Black Watch sorry. Hope you enjoy more videos as I got Severn Valley Railway Diesel Gala coming up next week @puffcandy
😮 Locomotion we went past it on our road trip and I only found the brochure after we had gone past it so that’s definitely a next trip attraction for sure Andrew
Hello Andrew great video i see 29:30 minutes of the video 03113 in the shed is one of the one's we had in Gulf Oil Refinery it was used as a parts loco for the other loco that we had i was a shunter from 1990 to 95 it was then gifted to Milford Haven Dock Co were it was for a few years i'm glad it was restored and looks great thanks for a great video.
Hi Satley Seagull, the class 86 locos that had been at Basford Hall all got exported. There is a picture of one having been repainted, even the one from Crewe Heritage Centre went
Well I know talking to Andrew Goodman the main boss at RSS he said majority of stock here will have a future at some point. The 37 and 47 owner has said he definitely was bothe back on mainline so watch this space!!!
@@andrewscott7092is it possible you know andrew goodman. If so ask him does he know jack and jo from winchcombe and let him know jo had a stroke, as ive lost contact with quite some time ago, if you can ,😮

47484 Need to be restored back to its former glory ASAP (LSL need your help! ), alway noted on the GWR Paddington to Swansea Service during the 70/80's in BR Blue standard livery, I believe it was painted in GWR Green for the 150 GWR Celebrations in Late 1984 Early 1985 , I saw it at OOC open day in September 1985 where there was a few of Class 47 in Green & a Class 50 in Green & many BR Class 50's on the depot along with a vast of loco's present, they were the days for the Rail Enthusiast's.
@Mitch-Hendren Thanks very much for your comment means a lot, I honestly love going out filming what ever I see and sharing it with who ever wants to watch it. Please continue watching and supporting me cheers
Hi Andrew. I haven't commented before but just wanted to say thanks for the time and trouble you take making this ( and all your videos). Ive been living in Northern Ireland for some 30 years and rarely get home. You're doing what I did in my younger days, rail trips to exactly the same places. So Im reliving it through your eyes. ( On a much modernised network) Your presentation is great very relaxed Its like having a day out with your mate . Never underestimate the power of u tube. Or the pleasure you're bringin to this now 60 year old 👍👍👍 . Cheers .... Mitch .. p.s I was still using Dore station in the mid 80's when it was singled . Thought at the time it was a stupid decision... Nice to be proved right 😋
As far as I'm aware the locomotives there all have a future. I know the gentleman who owns the 37 and 47 would like both back on the main line. As for the wagons I couldn't give u a answer sorry
Interesting video makes you wonder where all the scrap will go when what's left of our steel industry has gone Scunthorpe blast furnace to go plus the two in South Wales, and yet the company that owns South Wales steelworks still have blast furnace in India TATA steel the company who own British steel from china has over 274 blast furnace working in china,
@@roberthowlett9318 your right china owns British steel Scunthorpe and there shutting down the blast furnaces and yet in china they operate 275 blast furnaces it's the same with TATA steelworks in Wales who are owned by India who also operate lots of blast furnaces, so it seems they want shot of steel making in the UK s that we will end up buying there rubbish steel,
@@andrewchaston503 let's hope your right, that will upset the Chinese, there's a scrap yard in Newport that sends most of there scrap to china, and other countries,
