A Drivers Eye view from Paignton to Exeter St Davids along the very scenic Devon Sea Wall
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- A beautiful Drivers Eye view along the English Riviera from Paignton through Torquay to Netwon Abbot. Past the National Hunt racecourse then along side the Teign estuary to Teignmouth and along the Sea wall that spectaculary got washed away on the night of Febraury 14th 2014, leaving the line closed for weeks whilst it was rebuilt and re-enforced. We then continue on through Starcross and along side the Exe estuary before crossing the River Exe and our arrival into Exeter St Davids. Watchout for the Bug!

Great video. I live in that part of the world and rate the Teignmouth to past Starcross part as the best train journey possible in this country. Travelled it many times but never seen it from the cab. Thank you for posting it.
That's cool!
I am astounded by how Newton Abbot has changed since I went there in the 70's early 80's. Just 3 plain tracks and not even a single point at the west end now, what a difference. Great video though
Having lived in this part of Devon over 50 years, this was very interesting. Thanks for sharing. God bless you..
Glad you enjoyed it
Went right past our old flat in Dawlish, loved that walk to Dawlish Warren and back we always waved to the train drivers, loved it, just couldn’t cope with the building shaking when the sea hit the sea wall in winter storms! 👍🏻
If there was a storm in the summer during a heat-wave, that would be "Shake n' Bake".
Great views. Thanks so much for posting. We always used to travel from London Paddington to Teignmouth when I wS growing up and we loved going through the five tunnels as we knew then that we were almost there. Thanks so much for naming all the tunnels. Have walked the sea wall many times. Last week was the last time.
I'm glad you've done this. One of my favourite routes I've experienced. From Teignmouth to Star Cross might be the best view you can get on a train in Britain. Top video mate.
Cool, thanks!
Brings back memories of Warships & Westerns and of a cafe that sat beneath the old footbridge on the right as you left Paignton Stn.
I don't get why anyone puts thumbs down when you can watch this cab-ride for free? Instead of paying up to £25 on official carbide websites.
Exactly.
This was filmed over a year ago that's why the dislikes maybe, Dawlish has a new sea wall now and looks totally different
What is a "carbide" website? These videos should be volunteer-driven for the love of and spirit of trains-not to make a buck.
I Spent a many years working this area, one of my favs, from maintaining structures, litter clearing between the platforms and that estuary wall railing between Starcross and the yacht club, what a job that was every weekend during the autumn and winter for about 6 months, still have a core which was drill out of the wall, why couldn't Network Rail asked us to do it during the summer 🤣. Suberb video of one of the best train rides in the country. Thanks
Couldn't agree more!
Very nostalic. This was the latter part of my route from my home in Yorkshire to Agricultural College at Newton Abbott in 1960-61 on, I think, the Sheffield Cutler: a spectacular finale to the journey. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
How things have changed, i can remember the diamond cross-over outside Paignton that allowed trains to leave either platform onto the up line, and lots of people on the footbridge watching every train departure.
Also 4 lines into newton Abott, 4 platforms, a passing line on the up track, and the motorail terminal. Also many more lines in the goods yard opposite the horse racing course, not the few there are now. The empty space says everything about the decline of our railways over the last 40 years :(
Very much rationalised when Exeter panel resignalling came in.
I put on another vid of a train ride and it worked perfectly. I'll always remember this ride as we came from the other direction, from Paddington, as we came out of a tunnel my Mum cried: "the sea, the sea!" It made me a fan of trains, Brunel and of course, the sea. I was 8 at the time.
Magnificent landscape, superb editing - thank you for posting! Theo, Netherlands.
Many thanks!
Lovely videos, and thanks for clarifying regarding the lack of sounds, Totally understandable but yes, it’s lovely to have in cab sounds. Also - we love watching the driver do his stuff too. Most videos catch a 5 second glimpse here and there but it’s great to see extended shots of driving techniques etc
Many thanks!
Always remember the large signal box between Exeter and Starcross, back in the 1950's ,on the river Exe side.
My grandparents had a hotel, in the 1930’s , a beautiful Edwardian building, painted green and cream I think with a verandah. Set back from the sea overlooking a grassy area in front of Goodrington sands. My mother remembered a big storm when she was small. She said in the morning all the sand had been washed away just leaving the stones!! Joan
Love this video .Hope more to come.
Superb cab ride. 1950s holiday route!
Another great video. Thank you for reviving some childhood memories. No mention of the former station at Kingskerswell, though, between Torre and Newton Abbot, the platforms of which are still very distinct and visible. But nitpicking, I know.
Or, for that matter, Exminster, between Starcross and Exeter St. Thomas, the station buildings of which are still there, in another use. More nitpicking! lol
Thanks for the info!
Brilliant.I was born in Exmouth and when I was a kid we used to get the ferry across to Starcross and get the train to Dawlish Warren. Great place before it became a 'holiday destination slum'. Thanks for the memory jog.
Glad you enjoyed it
Very nice clear video thank you. That thing corners like it's on rails.
Many years ago in the 80’s with my late wife we were on a cycle tour of the south coast the hills defeated us so we caught the Teignmouth to Exeter all I can remember we got on with our loaded bikes the train was packed with school kids
Nicely filmed. Liked the map at the start and the comments through the video.
Many thanks!
Many thanks james
A real shame about the sound , this has got to be one of,or possibly the best cab ride on the you tube network . Spot on RailMart .
thanks
I mean you could just put a video of train sound effects on in a different tab. I mean it's not gonna sound much different anyway.
Fantastic views, probably the best views in the U.K. thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Really enjoyed that. I've been on the sea wall a few times but never 'in the cab' before. Love to do it for real. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent, really enjoyed that ride, so many memories and so many good times.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great colour, well filmed, lovely wide-screen view. Just like being in the cab. Very nice trip thank you
Many thanks!
“Oh I do like to be beside the seaside ... “. Thanks for posting a beaut video. 🐨🇦🇺
Thanks for watching!
Really enjoyed that, a lovely part of the country and very good references for us modellers too...subbed, thanks, Chris
Another lovely video. When I was a kid we went on a school trip to Paignton zoo. Used to go to Newton Abbot with my elder brother ( who was a bit of a dell boy ) to the car auctions. This is a beautiful line, just confirms what a beautiful county Devon is. Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing!
I've found in the railway Videos, some will be always negative,, why Ill never know, they are absolutely brilliant, Loved this, I watch the railcams along the Dawlish wall, San Remo is my favourite, see some lovely sunrises too, thanks for posting this video, nice to enjoy the views from lower down,, have been a passenger a few times, but even better to see the views from the cab... many thanks
Glad to be of service.
Brilliant, a few changes since I last rode this line in 1979!! On screen commentary useful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Stayed in a hotel for a week opposite Dawlish station in 1967 , all 5 of us mum, dad, brother and sister. Happy days.
As an ex train driver(Ripple Lane,Norwood, Waterloo, Gillingham) ,I still enjoy going over unfamiliar routes,so thanks for posting!
Used to speak with the TCS at Ripple Lane and Norwood junction during my time in the control!
A very good video, as others have said shame about no sound but it didn't detract from the show, well done
Yep. Sorry bout that, but my hands were tied by HR.
that's ok I understand the reasons. but it was still a good video, I have spent a lot of time over the past 11 years going to those places but only by road, so it was good to see it from a different view, many thanks
Silence is BLISS😋
just after 18:19 the line passes under a footbridge that links to a property overlooking the river estuary near Bishopsteignton. Nearly 60 years ago I had a holiday at that property with my parents and somehow my dad knew that at a certain time each night a mail train from Penzance to London would pass by and we could see the mail being sorted through the windows.
The Mail train ran until early 2000's.
I worked the very last morning SWT service from Paignton before it was withdrawn, hybrid 158/159 6 car due to repairs, (last ever was later at night), really miss that route.
I did that shunt one day that the 143 is doing but we both had the road. It must have looked strange to the people standing at the crossing seeing two trains leaving at the same time and me racing him.
I presume the big herring gull (or one of its mates), still waits by the driver's cab in the up platform to see if you have a bit of a sandwich for it or a chip etc? So funny.
When I first drove over the route in 1999, it was still the regulation to blow the horn entering and leaving tunnels. The four nearest Dawlish though are so close to each other that I would blow one (high or low), on entering, then one in between each one and the final one on exit before reaching the longer Parsons tunnel.
Saw the photo of DAWLISH, had to watch it!! I lived 30 years in Dawlish ,before moving to Norway. Great to see some familiar places 🥰
Oh wow!
Excellent film . It’s a shame to see Newton Abbot as a shadow of its former self . A once great rail centre . What’s also surprising is the lack of crossovers from one line to another .
I think its called rationalisation.
Absolutely loved this, many thanks.
Your welcome.
I live in Exmouth so seeing this was great!
Great.
beautiful - no more words to describe this.
Cheers!
@@RailMart thank you
Excellent video - one of the best.
Wow, thanks!
Excellent ride especially when the sun came out with blue skies at Dawlish!
Many thanks!
I was a language student in Torquay in 1992. Will have to go back n visit. Now residing in Suffolk
Wonderful scenic journey,cheer's bob.
Many thanks
Whenever I'm down in Torbay, I will always make that journey ( there and back), even if I have no reason to go into Exeter
Excellent 👍👍💕💕👌👌❤️❤️😊😊
Many many thanks
Fantastic quality, thanks for sharing it with us. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
A lovely video and an historical record. Thanks for sharing :)
Glad you enjoyed it
Well filmed, I have ridden this journey many times and done it by road.....pity you cannot see the castle.
As the "English Riviera" you'd think Torquay Station would make a bit of effort ,it's an eyesore
Yes was shocked when i was down there last year. NOT a good first impression.
Yep. Its all about image!
Loved the journey thank you :)
So glad!
Really enjoyed this. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Many thanks great vid!
Glad you liked it!
I can remember being in the old cinema next to the crossing at Paignton in the late 70's, my cousin and I would run to the toilet to look out the window when we heard a Class 50 leaving the station, sod whatever film it was, a big filthy
unrefurbished Hoover was far more entertaining 😂😂. Its sad to think that all the glory days have now gone, no more real locomotive hauled trains of note, only the odd rail tour, it's just a procession of horrid units. 😫 Even a good old HST has more character than any modern plastic monstrosity.
ive just got home from dawlish,it looked funny seeing the train go past some on the places we went to to-day 18/08/20 time 18-04
*bird poo's on the train's windscreen*
Me: Dirty bird
On the other note I love this route, one of my favourite routes in the area
Without the real sound it is just sad. Look forward to real in-cab sound again!
This green and pleasant land.
Not surprisingly, since it's a temperate climate and therefore you will see green fields, valleys, meadows etc. Just as you will see the exact same green fields, valleys, meadows (if not more beautiful) in the Czech Republic, Germany, France, Hungary, Poland, Canada and many more countries around the world.
That was great thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@RailMart I did very much thank you
My father is the chairman of a group by the name of 'Heath Rail Link' on facebook trying to get the disused Newton - Heathfield line back open again, has had a big backing so far, 527 members to date which ain't too bad considering not many people know about this line.
I was the chap that spoke about running the buffet at the Heathfield end.
You forgot to mention Brunel's pump house at Star Cross...
Brilliant. I live in Paignton
Me to,love The Bay,esp when the sun is out,
Nice view, thanks for uploading.
Thanks for watching
Pity it was low tide and no easterly gale blowing - I was looking forward to seeing breakers crash over the train 😀! Memories of my childhood many years ago, both on the train and walking with the dogs along the sea wall.
Another commenter observed how run down Torquay station looks,. In my young days, it used to be very attractive, with gardens tended by the station staff, but I guess that nowadays few people travel to Torquay by train, and it's too expensive to employ porters, etc, who can keep the station looking good in their spare time.
" FIRST CLASS " Is it me, or is this area not magic ? Nice escape in these trouble lockdown times, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
👌👌👌👌
Hi there, great trip thankyou. Understand about your restrictions about sound and I hope you can find a solution to that soon.
Must say I really appreciate the additional captions and descriptions ... a great improvement. As someone mentioned earlier ... you must have been taking notes from Don Coffey ... in my opinion the "master" of cabrides. Have subscribed and look forward to further trips in your company
Thanks. Our later cab rides now are not subject to those restrictions.
Driver keeps his eye rock steady.
As ever!
Just couldnt believe the amount of white painted houses. Is this a Devon fashion?
Reflect the sun's heat in the summer
Interesting to note all the crossovers, in Victoria (au) many crossovers have been removed so most suburban lines are just two tracks with a crossover at the terminus. When operating the weed poison train to Glen Waverley, the VR would run a light engine (another loco) to put the train back out again.
Nowadays the weed spraying is done from Hi-rails which are trucks with rail wheels which can be raised or lowered.
St Thomas station was undercover in the 50's and a ride to St David's cost 1 penny
Bargain!
I live just up the road from Paignton station.
Nice part of the world to live!
Lived in Paignton back in the late 80's and often walked over the level crossing just outside the station.
Music? What music? Enjoyed the view as it reminded me of a holiday in Devon. One thing that driver's eye view videos seem to miss out on is an external view of the train we are to ride on - the view could be at the start or the end of the journey.
Thankyou for this video... enjoyed it very much. Having Google Earth open at the same time helps to cross-reference where 'we' might be on the journey. As a suggestion, would you please indicate the bridges - especially the over-bridges - so we can keep up as the landscape evolves. I think I will have to play this backwards... heading south along the Exe estuary always evokes 'coming home' after an adventure, and by the time I entered the tunnels, I just knew for sure!
Hi Debm. I have Exeter - Newton Abbot yet to edit and post. However noting all the bridges in edit is quite a task.
@@RailMart Being a bit selfish, I admit. Still, it was great to play Clouseau and try to connect Earth to your vid.
The Parson is the large rock which appears to lean against the cliff, I understand. Is The Clerk the smaller one further out to sea which lost its top part a while ago, or is it closer to Dawlish?
Very interesting.video and very interesting info given, with a weather certainly good.
When there is a very bad weather.fron the south east, in certain place the waves do.not temporaly submerged the railway line ?
Another line I know well and have traveled along many, many times. Really great to follow it on my exercise bike today, as I did with your Settle / Carlisle videos. Would love to see a cab ride from Bristol via Weston-S-Mare to Paignton (or Totnes) - pure nostalgia.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for doing this.Great journey and well worth the trip.Are you able to redo this some day with train noise ?,Best wishes
I will try.
Nice. Missed the cab sounds.
Coming soon!
Really magical video, nice to get away from it all! What class of train was this filmed aboard? :)
It was on a GW Sprinter.
The bit at Dawlish doesn't look like anymore
No been rebuilt recently.
what was the miles distance ?
RailMart hello in the previous video of the Barton line I said I’ll pass to purchase, but now I’m actually interested to know what your prices are for the videos you put out on UA-cam, so for the Barton line how much would you ask for if you wanted people to use it? Very good quality as always
Hi. Not going to go into detail here. E mail me. My info E mail is in the About section.
RailMart no worries sent email now
Nice video thanks. Have you made one on the Barnstaple branch. ?
Yes I have
I Bet You Was On A CrossCountry Train?
Watching this video, I can see where your inspiration comes from. Your editing and presentation is similar to that of Don Coffey.
Wow, thanks!
@@RailMart Have you seen any of Don Coffey's videos, by any chance?
When was this video shot please? I love South Devon. Have relatives in North Devon, which is equally pleasant but I know it inside out.
Its now about 3 years old.
Thanks for increasing my knowledge of places in the UK. I had heard of Dawlish, though. Wasn't there a washout of the rail line a few years ago?
Sure was i put a caption about it when we went past that part.
There's a possible way around the recoding audio problem. You need a 'model release' signed by everyone in the cab after they have heard the audio and agreed to deletions. BobUK.
I am hoping to get some more up to date recordings later in the year that will have sound. It was mainly caused by paranoid HR and the new gdpr regulations coming in 2- 3 years ago. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@RailMart Thanks for replying. The other way is an audio recorder in the unoccupied rear cab - if there is one.
The train has more stops, it’s a shame you missed out lympstpone village and exmouth also the train goes past lympstone and commando
Wrong side of the River Exe, you really should know better please do your homework
Surely Lympstone is on the Exmouth line on the other side of the River !.
Roger Cashmore nope I get the train from Paignton to exmouth all the time it’s one train journey
I recommend Musique a Grande Vitesse by Michael Nyman as the soundtrack to cab rides.
Will Have a dig about!
Just found it on u/t thanks but no thanks.Way too dramatic!
Great video, rather similar to the DB Productions of the late 1990s, depicting reinstated railways after German reunification.
One observation, would it be possible to include small notifications of the locations of closed stations on the route.
Thanks for the info!
Hey, would you happen to have a link to those DB Productions? I'd love to see some of the German Railway Network in the '90s!
What was the traction? 143?
Yes it was.
Shout out to my old red car at 14:35 at Newton Abbot station
Ha Ha. Fantastic!
was this video from 2019 as HSTs have finished on GWR
Yes from a couple of years ago.
39:23 HST
It's a pity about the cab sound. Good video though!
