When I was 14 and living in swindon I camped along this old line just passed chisledon, During the early hours of the morning as didn’t sleep well I herd a steam train and sounded close ,Within an hour I’d packed up my rucksack and tent and started cycling home,But got stopped by plod at the motorway junction wanting to know what a 14yr old was doing out at 4am lol
Hats off gentlemen - as they say in Poland - absolutely ingenious masterpiece. And what drew my attention and what shocks me is that over 140 years passed and virtually all plots of land borders are the same. And by the way the former railway is now a perfect running or cycling route!
Really good video, is there one from Marlborough to Andover? Considering all the traffic and lorries on this route now, it seems a very daft decision to close the line all those years ago.
Just brilliant. A stretch of the railway I know well. Nostalgic, sad, poignant, part of an England that is gone for ever.
Your videos are so hypnotic. What a fantastic way to document our history and what a fantastic way to educzte people.
Another absorbing and informative example of this creator’s workmanship. First class as ever.

Nice.
A little confusing as there is/was no station at Marlborough, there were two but called Savernake high level and low level.
There were two stations and two lines
