    Really do love the edit you done on this video and it has really been awesome hanging out with GLovesTrains on the Middlewood Way and enjoy the memories from the day coming back and some parts of the video that still made me laugh. Thank you G, it really been a pleasure collabing with you. Also one small mistake on my behalf, High Lane was opened in 1869, not 1969.

    I first walked the Middlewood Way in 1985 when it first opened, there was no dual carriageway then, alas the last mile into Macclesfield was lost as the dual carriageway was built over the trackbed.

    I had to pause and collect myself a couple of times; the humour was better than I was expecting.
    If you ever come to New Zealand, there's a couple of disused railway lines worth talking a walk on, namely Paeroa to Waikino ~ part of the old mainline between Hamilton and Tauranga as well as the Taneatua branch, once part of the East Coast Main Trunk ~ not to be confused with the East Coast Mainline, of course. The Taneatua branch was downgraded to a branchline in 1978 (Kawerau is now the southern terminus) and closed in the early 2000s.

    A good round trip is to walk to Mac on the Middlewood Way then back on the Macclesfield Canal. You cannot see it easily these days due to trees but the Middlewood Way passes over the portal to the Disley tunnel on the line from Chinley to Hazel Grove just before you reach High Lane.

    Haha! Double SBs at Higher Poynton! And it was good to see you both walk the whole Middlewood Way - it certainly is a very pretty walk and well worth the effort. It's slightly downhill walking to Macclesfield, the other way might be a tougher task. The viaduct at Bollington is particularly special with the views also, certainly was a highlight for me. Great stuff!

    So Rose Hill is on a branch of its own - that’s cool, but amazing it survived. Lovely scenery and perfect weather for the walk - thanks for the cheerful vlog ☺️. If you like walking old railway routes, the Wirral Way is worth trying. Links West Kirby to Hooton, though a few sections are now built on. No viaducts I’m afraid, but there are some wonderful views across the Dee estuary to north Wales.
