Are u using the same santa as last year? Thanks
I'd like to go to Alton Towers please.
Returning to the CVR tomorrow. Last visit 9 years ago. Used to visit quite regularly between 2010 and 2015. Disappointed that it is not longer possible to get on the train at Cheddleton southbound to KF and then walk along the canal towpath back to the Black Lion at Consall, have a few drinks, and then catch a train back to Cheddleton. Timetable is a shadow of its former self. 😕

Will it disturb the huge theme park fans going to Alton towers?
My son is special needs and he loves trains 🚆🚂🚃🚄🚅🚇🚈🚉🚊🚝🚞🚋🛤 and he is overjoyed whenever a once removed railroad track is rebuilt and used again it is one of his dreams for removed railroad tracks 🛤 to be rebuilt and used again.
never seen SO many people standing about ! ...........
I wish they bring the line back leek to stoke they should have kept it open tbh be nice seeing this coming through stoke
And I have drove it
The green train Hotspur's is my uncles
Is the breakfast train the big black tender engine coz if so I'm gonna ask to go on the footplate
I thought trains weren’t supposed to go that way on the CVR yet because the track didn’t yet reach Leek 🤔
There were explosions💥 underneath the loco!
They are called detonators they are normally carried by a guard so that incase a locomotive stops on a line and needs assistance the guard will put detonators on the track behind the locomotive so that any locomotive behind will know that there is an engine stationary ahead very very important pieces of kit
@@steamingaroundbritain detonators are to stop the train
@@transportguy1k635 yes and no they are to notify the driver that there may be an obstruction ahead so therefore he must control the train and be ready to stop in other words proceed under caution
Looks well thought out!
Wow, i used to go to this heritage railway line a kid with my granddad and this has really pulled my heart-strings. Thank you for uploading this
Stubwood hi I’m the video director - I’m glad this touched you. Hopefully you can come back one day and make new memories too 🙂
Fantastic!! Destination leek at last 😁
my grandad said its not nice the line but i love it so much
Chesterfield Radio it’s one of my favourite places to visit 🙂
Some lovely shots from what was a great weekend!
Great job! I can't wait to see Leek Railway Station reopend!
How far does this go towards Leek?
201 Metres towards Leek!
This is the first section of relaid track. Fundraising for the rest is ongoing through events like the triple USATC S160s train on Saturday the 26th Oct 19 for just £20 per adult all day. These funds will go towards new track laying to reach a new proposed station at a large redevelopment in Leek.
This happened on the weekend of my 15th birthday!
Fabulous!
