    Brilliant video, that Furness Vale No. 20 is truly a special sight, over 160 years old!

    You had a busy weekend. I have not been to this line yet. I have seen a few videos here and it looks interesting, especially if No 20 is running. Good to see the trains looked quite busy

    Excellent video again. Went all the way there from Essex 2 years ago to see the Railbus only to find it not running.
    Still I was offered a complete tour of the stored locomotives.
    Always looking out for your videos as you do get about 😊

    Nice to see the RSR getting some long-overdue publicity. Shame you didn't show a quick look around the museum that is adjacent to the station - you have to pass through it to get to the platform!

      Yes, good to publicise the smaller railways.
      Don't worry I did have a look round the museum, look out for the separate video of it soon 😀
