Conisbrough Viaduct & Cadeby Tunnel
Join me as i take a detailed look at this huge disused Railway Viaduct in South Yorkshire.
Built as recently as 1909 and closed 5 decades later we have a look from above and below before moving onto the neighboring Cadeby Tunnel also in Conisbrough.

Been watching your videos for a few months now. I regularly run this route(today being on of those days)and always wanted to know about the old line , viaduct etc. can’t believe this video popped up by chance three years later. Absolutely fascinating

@malcbarrass7090 2 года назад

I used to live at nearby Edlington, on a weekend we would walk through the Air tunnel that goes from Edlington to the start of the viaduct, spending time in the Woods exploring the Banana Cave, lighting a fire and practising with the catapult. A right if passage for any young lad was to walk the length of the Viaduct wall, don't advise it on a windy day. When the lines came up a group of Lads threw dozens of wooden sleepers into the river completely blocking the locks at Sprotbrough!

@paulprendi2000 3 года назад

Fantastic lighting in the tunnel, you are correct with the Mexborough wragger, a young gypsy girl who was killed in the tunnel at that exact point t where the doll is. In fact there has been a number of deaths in the tunnel.

@paulprendi2000 3 года назад

I walk this route nearly every day, your cinematography is amazing, thank you, our bridge has never looked better

@Enjibenji 3 года назад

I live In Conisbrough and this video was great! Although the people that live here can be a little rough around the edges the history and sights are wonderful, it'd be nice to see you give the castle a similar treatment

@liltbreezyparanormalexplor2287 3 года назад

Just like to add thank you for the old pictures of when it was first being built. Awesome

@HobbiesAndSunshine 3 года назад

How to make half an hour seem like no time at all! So interesting, great music, drone work and research with lovely old pictures. Thank you Ant, a total pleasure to watch.

@TrekkingExploration 3 года назад

Thank you so much. This is also one of my favourites 🙂 The big circle shot with the drone was scary at the time but worth it

@paulprendi2000 3 года назад

That bridge led all the way down to a part of the river where there were boats, a mill and sickle works and also where you could board the Conisbrough ferryboat crossing

@telemachus53 3 года назад

Amazing - but I say that about all your vids. The drone footage is breathtaking. Looking at those recesses in the tunnel and seeing how they were almost fashioned to look asthetic goes to show how much work and artifice went into the simplest of engineering works - even for the inside of a tunnel which no one is ever supposed to see as the trains go steaming by.

@shirleylynch7529 3 года назад

Your filming is second to none. The drone footage of that amazing bridge is outstanding. I’m surprised a T.V. Company or film crew hasn’t snapped you up. Thank you. Well done . Tunnel and bricks brilliant. Bit creepy. The lighting in the tunnel just added to the atmosphere.

Breathtaking drone footage second to non I live in Conisbrough and the history is awesome. Amazing filmography and the music finishes it of great choice of music

@johnlaw6369 Год назад

The inclined bridge once carried a rope work railway, to & from a brickworks. BTW, the two photgraphs of Cadeby Tunnel when still in use were taken by me. I dont mind them being used, though a credit would be nice. A great video!

@TrekkingExploration Год назад

Thanks John. I do try to credit on screen when possible. Occasionally information of photographer doesn't seem to present itself. Thank you for watching it's a lovely little area

@joe01zorn 2 года назад

What a great tour! Thank You. In a Facebook comment, one your neighbors took a picture of himself in one of the nearby fields with the Viaduct behind. Reminding me of some of the old Roman structures in Europe, I asked about the Conisbrough Viaduct. He gave a two sentance discription. And advice to Google and check out your RU-vid video.

@chrislaunders8283 Год назад

The inclined bridge that is still there was over the Dearne Valley Railway and the one below it which only the abutments remain was over the LNER Denaby Branch line that went through the tunnel, you can see his by visiting "Old Maps Online"

@darylslinn5704 3 года назад

At the bottom of the steep incline is where the old colliery sidings used to be so i'm thinking it may have been something to do with Cadeby Colliery and the loading sidings. The colliery used to cover a huge expanse of that hillside and valley bottom, although something tells me it was part of a path way down from the village of Cadeby to the colliery.

@lindamccaughey6669 3 года назад

That was another fantastic video thanks Ant. What a huge via duct that was and such beautiful views. Of course the bridge was phenomenal that beautiful stonework. Thought when you were climbing you might have had to quickly turn camera around. Thanks so much for taking me along and please stay safe and take care

@cyberleaderandy1 Год назад

The amazing thing about the viaduct is it is built using blue engineering bricks. These are heavier and harder than normal bricks and gave to be fired at a higher temperature. They also cost more as a result.

Great vid. Ant. It's possible the incline was for a rope hauled tramway serving a quarry above the railway line. There was once a glassworks beside the river.

@andywhite40 3 года назад

Great video really well filmed and as usual your commentary is excellent. The viaduct is an awesome sight and how wonderful that the iron section wasn't removed by British rail. I'm intrigued by those markings on the tunnel floor, clearly it's been surveyed but for what purpose? Looking forward to more great stuff from you this year!!

@bobingram6912 3 года назад

Another great viaduct drone fly by. Cadeby tunnel - is it me or did it look better in black and white days?!!! That incline/gradient looks to be more suited to rack and pinion!! 👍🏻👍🏻

@PaulMaloney 3 года назад

Great video Ant. It’s a shame we don’t put as much effort into the aesthetics of our bridges nowadays, that is one beautiful viaduct.

@MikesFoggyIdea 3 года назад

Fantastic video as always. I was wondering if it was possible to fly drones through the tunnels? That would be some fun footage from an engineers point of view.

@TrekkingExploration 3 года назад

I have a friend that did try this on one of the Monsall Tunnels at night. It worked but had to be done slowly

@russasquith648 3 года назад

An amazing video. Get in touch. I will help fill you in on some of the missing bits. 11:32 - it was totally blockaded with a steel plate wall similar to canal pile. The iron section has a lower catwalk. That is not possible to get to it now as SUSTRANS made safe by pouring concrete on the deck. There used to be two small trap doors to get down. Often ppl would do charity abseils. 😁

@atrampinthehills.841 3 года назад

Not far from me...i often walk over the viaduct but never been through the tunnel...i shall have to check it out.

@socklesslad 3 года назад

I think the good weather definitely contributed to this video - the shadows of the viaduct were amazing. I know you like your mornings but I hope you didn't have to get up too early to film this!

Mate, you'd get a mountsin of views if you covered the ost railways of central norfolk.. From kings lynn to Thetford and up to the coast in a big triangle... As far as i know, NOBODY on youtube has followed any of these central Norfolk lines.... They are forgotten... And as a norfolk boy it bothers me!...
