Personally working on the railway and having been to rugby I never knew about this line, with its amazingly beautiful viaduct, with you doing a great job of bringing it back to life
I live so close to this viaduct and see it every day of my life. I’ve always wanted to walk along it, so Thankyou for taking me along with you. It was an absolutely beautiful video. I also recently watched your Foxton locks video which was also fascinating and stunning! Many thanks and well done for some fantastic work. Xx
Yet another East/West line that was destroyed by Beeching and Marples. The Rugby to Peterborough line was quite busy yet because it didn't radiate from London it met the same fate as most other non Londoncentric lines. Even today as they are trying to reopen the Oxford to Cambridge line there are major spanners being thrown in the works to try to prevent it. We need proper cross country communications by rail. In my humble opinion that should be a main aim in "levelling up" Britain. For some reason our government is stuck in the past where everything centered on one place, London, to the detriment of the country as a whole. Today we see the Manchester to Leeds and Hull line spending being cut back yet they are pushing for a North/South Cross rail to be built. The first thing required is to get the rest of the rail system up to scratch for future generations to use. Thanks for another great video. The drone shots were superb yet again as they give a real time view much better than any map.
I'm Australian but note that London has only 13 per cent of England's total population (though higher if one discusses 'Greater London'). You have huge numbers of secondary cities and a few thousand smaller villages, so you are on the ball with your comments about more cross-country east-west lines needed.
Couldn't agree more, what you say is absolutely spot on. Our governments seem to be perpetually London-centric, no interest in improving any infrastructure if it's not directly connected to the capital. It's a tragedy so many lines were lost and communities disconnected.
Just something so noble about functional architecture like this. Stylish yet full of purpose. I always think of the man hours to build what was once so useful.
Thanks again, Ant. I always feel so sad to see such a beautiful structure so forgotten about. But as a teenager, I travelled on that Rugby to Peterborough line, so may well have used that lovely viaduct. Lovely footage by your drone, too.
Thank you for drawing our attention to this wonderful structure. I feel ashamed to be honest, a railway fanatic and one time railwayman AND a boater I've been up and down the North Oxford canal many times and never knew this viaduct was there - shame on me. Whilst it wonderful it's still there it's a bit like visiting the grave of an old friend and how sad it doesn't fulfill its purpose any longer. Thank you so much for posting.
Hello Ant - greetings from Poland An absolutley brilliant video. In my opinion, one of your "Top 5 Ever". An astonishing object, built more than 140 years ago. Your camera work, drone footage and commentary were incredible. The opportunity to walk on the top was very unexpected, bearing in mind the canal end was blocked off. Many congratulations on producing this wonderful vlog.
Fantastic! Wonder how long this will stand for. Bricks do crumble over time, but these look like they’re in good condition! Maybe another couple of hundred years.
They are engineering brick and last quite a long time as they repel moisture, they are still used in building projects where water needs to be controlled from ingestion
They aren't in the habit of demolishing these things now, so will likely hope some group takes ownership and finds a use for it and a way to maintain it in the future
Nice one Ant, loving the way you are combining your narrow boat journey, with some great railway finds, anyone would have thought you had planned it, lol
Brilliant 👍🏻 the drone shots are superb Ant and that last still before the video ends is so good with the setting sun on the horizon against the viaduct in the foreground. 🙂
Hello Ant, may i say a massive thank you to for doing this video as it has provided me with a long lost answer to a Question that i asked my late mum on when she lived in Rugby how did she get to Market Harboropugh to give birth to me and then return back to Rugby, and also you are doing some fantastic videos.
That channel carrying the stream is an invert. It's called that because it's an upside-down arch, mirroring the one above. It completes the ellipse and strengthens that particular arch and also protects the piers on either side from the scouring action of the water. It's a sound structure that was built to last.
What a lovely viaduct I think that is one of the best and in good condition too glad you were able to get on it and the views were smashing thanks for sharing the amazing footage of it all xx
Nice Viaduct, nice video Ant, love the railway videos. It looks like a viaduct near me the Clifton viaduct, known locally has 13 arches. It was on the old East Lancashire line, the fence is damaged so you can get on that one and I have been on it. Could you imagine them building a structure like this, I do not think so. Chris
Totally amazing. Music was perfectly chosen for the video. Drone film superb. The viaduct was well built all those years ago. What a fab explore.thank you.
crikey, what a beautifully filmed little adventure of discovery, made me want to cry, I didn't know it was there and stayed in Rugby a few times as well, so a pleasant surprise thanks
Brilliant video again, Ant. There have been so many disused viaducts sadly demolished. one of my favourite ones was the Loudounhill viaduct in Ayrshire. It was supposed to be unsafe, but it took 4 attempts to blow it up! It was 13 arches of blue engineering brick.
What a fantastic video thanks Ant. I hope those trees that are crowded at one end of viaduct are not leaning on it. Would hate to see it break. Everything just awesome. Thanks for taking me along. Please stay safe and take care
Excellent and very informative video! I grew up seeing this viaduct a lot in childhood as my parents were members of the golf club. I even got on top once in about 1982 from the end by the canal, no locked gate then and it wasn't overgrown with weeds, just that heavy grey gravel all along the top. The connecting bridge over the canal was still standing then too, you could literally carry on over it from the viaduct but we didn't dare set foot on it as the brickwork was crumbling badly and there was nothing to stop you falling off at the sides. That was demolished shortly afterwards which I believe involved some sort of inflatable underneath to stop the bricks falling into the canal below.
Back in the early '80s, we went on a canal holiday on this section of the Oxford Canal. I remember seeing this disused viaduct from the boat and was fascinated by it and really wanted to learn more about it but in the pre-internet days, it wasn't so easy. I guess there would have been articles on it in our local library. However, only in recent years had I thought to investigate it as I had remembered that it was in Rugby. So good to be able to close that one out ! [ Also in the early-mid '80s, we went past the overgrown entrance to the then-derelict Droitwich Canal, which also fascinated me. I since cycled along the part-restored canal to its end in about 2000, with the lock at the R Severn very derelict and overgrown. ]
What an expense for such a short piece of track, did it really solve a problem? What a fantastic crazy golf course🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for hopping over the hedge to show us Ant👍👍👍
Those Victorians certainly knew how to build things. This is as good today as it was 120 years ago and will probably still be there for another 120 years !!
Fascinating as always for your footage Ant. Surprised to see it open one end. Sad to think it was even electrified and didn't survive. Thanks for sharing though. I knew nothing about it.
There was I watching along thinking 'nice video, such a shame Ant couldn't get up on top', then BOOM!!! So well done on the intrepid explorer count, it is a fantastic sight and well deserves looking at. There is so much going on in and around Rugby when it comes to old railways, definitely needs a separate video covering it - mind you it may be a long one.
Such a solid structure Ant, is this particular viaduct. It is in such a good condition, maybe because it was built with top class bricks - blue engineering bricks are they called I wonder? Another pity that the line had to close when it did to Market Harborough, all those years ago. Rugby lost it's GC connection too, roughly at the same time. Anyhow, glad that you managed to get on to the viaduct, and many thanks for producing this video.
I once delivered supplies from The NHS to a house on the site of the old LMS Clifton Mill Railway Station. Being interested in disused railways & railway stations, I decided to Google this site when I got home & find out the stations history. I then went for my break & sandwiches near Rugby Cemetery. Not a place where I usually went to, but it was peaceful. On arriving home I got my i.pad out & looked up Clifton Station. When it came up, i selected a picture of the station, but kept getting this picture of the stationmaster. No matter what I did, the stationmasters picture was all that I could get. I found myself shouting at my i.pad, “I don’t want him, i want the station!!” In the end I said, “Ok, i give” & read about the Stationmaster. When I reached the end of the information, a chill came over me…….. for it was 100 years to the day that the stationmaster had died. Not only that, he was buried in Rugby Cemetery right by where i had had my break. It all happened on 10th January 2003 ⚰️ www.warwickshirerailways.com/lms/cliftonmill.htm
really good vidio Ant. well produced and informative. bet the local council are scrambling to block access at the southern end now, so we'll probably not be able to go see the views for ourselves.
Ant, there is always a hole in the fence somewhere - - - you just have to look hard enough. This was very enjoyable to watch during our dinner. Thanks for your time and effort......
@@TrekkingExploration I bet my laptop screen doesn't do justice what you saw with your own eyes. Can't wait till videos have "Smell-O-Vison" as the smells are a large part of the experience of the journey. Back to work, lunch is over.....
@@jetsons101 you'd have loved some of the smells in Blisworth Tunnel then 😂 I filmed it and lit it well however the diesel engine may be too loud.... We'll see 🙂
This was a excellent presentation thank you from New Zealand. I was thinking what a great cycle/walk way. Very good drone shots I was thinking how much it cost and long it took to build this viaduct.
Another cracking vid, thanks! At the South end of Rugby station the the formation of this branch still exists for several hundred yards, it passes between what were pillars of the old GC Birdcage Bridge. It is the headshunt & access to Colas Rail's Engineering Depot on Mill Lane in Rugby. I've been along there several times going into the depot.
Another great vid Ant. Wonder if Network Rail are still responsible for a level of upkeep. The fence wasn’t that old and although there are some saplings growing they’ve not really taken hold.
Thank you for another enjoyable video, such a shame this is not an attraction for the area, could have been a good walk. What a waste of BR to put overhead electric wires shortly before closure.
I bet that’s the first former electrified line that you’ve ever walked on? Any evidence of the former catenary how it was attached to the viaduct remaining?
nice to see it's in good condition after all these years and wasn't pulled down hope they keep it maintained and not left to detearate do we know why that section of line closed 🤔
As usual another “Good Un”Ant By the looks of it it’s still being maintained?and also looks a lot like The Sankey Viaduct over in Newton-le-Willows nr St Helen’s. This one of course very much still in use 👍👍
@@TrekkingExploration I can walk out of my house and be on the Great Central Walk in a minute. The old stations and bridges are all lovely to see and the walk to Hilmorton along the canal is also beautiful. I do love this area. Was a lovely video you did ☺️
Funny how these great structures have outlived many of there modern counterparts. They definitely new how to engineer. Shame the lines arnt still running, especially the great central, would have stopped the need to build the white elephant that is HS2.
yet again remains of the old world tartaria 300+ years old. you will not find any recordings of this being built with horse and cart like all the other sand stone structures and builds they were have meant to have built all in the same time space with so few population and recourses it just doesnt make sense. it has to be 300 + years old tartary technologie!!

The government isn't stuck in the past its planned this way, to deny you transport and its all part of their control mechanisms.
Your absolutely correct.
I totally agree with you.
I'm Australian but note that London has only 13 per cent of England's total population (though higher if one discusses 'Greater London'). You have huge numbers of secondary cities and a few thousand smaller villages, so you are on the ball with your comments about more cross-country east-west lines needed.
Couldn't agree more, what you say is absolutely spot on. Our governments seem to be perpetually London-centric, no interest in improving any infrastructure if it's not directly connected to the capital. It's a tragedy so many lines were lost and communities disconnected.
Just something so noble about functional architecture like this. Stylish yet full of purpose. I always think of the man hours to build what was once so useful.
I absolutley agree. Thanks for watching :)

We also have another viaduct ‘Eleven Arches’ go over the top of Leicester Rd as it’s called in Rugby (A426)
I shall be back in Rugby in the Autumn I'll be sure to take a look. Thank you for watching

Definitely! unfortunately, the old Victorian Viaducts on existing lines cost a fortune to maintain!

They are indeed engineering bricks and they're very hard, but I'd call them "brindles" rather than blue.
Always Great Work

It's in remarkable condition really. I guess if it's just been left alone with hardly anyone walking over that's helped, also no graffiti
The golf club bought the disused viaduct from BR. I guess it's quite a feature of the course.
Great Viaduct this ❤️
Well at least you got some drone footage of that it looks from the top - oh you did manage to find your way on top - well done 🙂🚂🚂🚂

I bet that’s the first former electrified line that you’ve ever walked on? Any evidence of the former catenary how it was attached to the viaduct remaining?
I only found out after I'd visited that it had a few years of electrification. I was rather surprised
He must have walked part of the old Woodhead route that was electrified.
You can see the metal brackets on the sides.
nice to see it's in good condition after all these years and wasn't pulled down hope they keep it maintained and not left to detearate do we know why that section of line closed 🤔
Thanks for watching Barry. Also no sign of a single bit of graffiti 🙂
You can access the viaduct from the top of the golf club on the other side,go in from the Clifton Rd
Hi Paul I did it's later in the video
If no railways were closed we wouldnt be able to mourn their loss, just a thought...
As usual another “Good Un”Ant
By the looks of it it’s still being maintained?and also looks a lot like The Sankey Viaduct over in Newton-le-Willows nr St Helen’s.
