    Hi Bob and Jenny, great that they have preserved the railway. Such a lovely walk along the trail. They make brilliant jobs out of disused railway lines there’s a few around us. Enjoyed x Julie and Tony x

      Yes, I liked that track, hopefully I'll get to cycle along one day.

    Lovely vlog. So many memories. I took my eldest son to university at Hatfield and he graduated at St Albans in 2013 with a 1st Class Honours degree. I was so proud of him. He died in September last year and your vlog highlighted so much of the time we spent there, when he graduated. We have a similar railway cycle ride up here, on the Wirral Way, via Hadlow Road Station. Beautiful ride and such lovely views up to West Kirby. Brilliant for us old uns!! Thanks so much for sharing 😊

    Such an interesting video Bob and Jenny love those walks it’s amazing what railways we did have and have lost but have been reborn in different ways
    We have a similar walk near us called the south Staffordshire railway walk which is very interesting and is similar how railway heritage has been preserved all the best to you both and poppy Daniel

    I really enjoyed this video. I'm afraid to say (living not far from St Albans) I'd never heard of Alban Way. I will definitely visit there now either to walk or to bring my bike. You two have certainly opened my eyes to so many places .. right on my doorstep .. that I just didn't know existed. Thank you both and of course not forgetting little Poppy.

    Know the area well, my Mum's sister still lives in Digswell & previously in WGC, uncle Wilf worked for the GPO back in the day.
    Trained at the place in Yarnfield Staffs where funnily enough my wife's cousin owns a house 😂

      I went to Stone TTC many times. Always remember how extremely cold it got once in the winter.
