    Another delightfully video.
    Quite a few years ago I travelled the Settle - Carlisle line. On the train was a member of staff - guard? conductor? ticket collector? passenger assistance operative? He was probably wondering what to do about this lunatic Australian who was taking endless photos out of both sides of the train. My partner sat quietly doing her best "he's not with me" impression.
    As we approached the Ribblehead Viaduct the staff member invited me into the vacant driver's cab at the back of the train. He watched bemused as said railway nutter took many photos of the railway line along the viaduct.
    Keep making videos they are a real entertainment. Oh, you didn't say if you made it to a toilet after you forgot to go before leaving the train at Seascale.

    This was a very enjoyable Vlog G I stayed in Barrow in Furness when I visited the Cumbrian Coast Line the station car park there can be very confusing to exit it to head to the town I also stopped off at Seascale and the beach there is amazing and it was nice to see a steamer at Carlisle I’m assuming that was a rail tour I continued to enjoy watching your Vlogs G carry on being awesome keep up the good work take care and stay safe

    Another latest great vlog G! Free ticket to ride too! Even though there was a bit of rain it still looked fun. We did the same trip last September (rain too). Except we went from Blackpool North to Carlisle along the Cumbrian Coast and then down the S and C line to Leeds and back to BPL North. Carlisle station is always busy and fun. Looks like you got to see the log train going to Chirk Kronospan, the Green Climate Pendo, and BIL 35018 the British India Line with its train. Brought our memories back from our last trip to the UK. Ta muchly!🚂🌧❤

I've been looking at the maps, and a run across the Pennines to Manchester, then up to Carlisle (perhaps via the coast route) than back to Yorkshire via the Settle-Carlisle line looks interesting.

    Yet again, a brilliant vlog around the Cumbrian Coast and on to the S&C from Carlisle G!
    Your frequent habit of venturing out to vlog on cold and very wet days is probably your best protection against being bitten by a snake (unless you accidentally tread on a sleeping one!). They are more sensible than some of us as they hate going out when it's cold; and don't go a bundle on getting wet either! ALSO....
    When you set off to visit the Ribblehead viaduct from ground level one day, DO take waterproofs to wear over your woolies (a 'cagoule' for example) might be a very good idea to help keep you dry?!

    Have they replaced the very bashed buffer stop in the West side bay platform at Carlisle yet? Can’t remember the platform number but it’s the one where the train on the coast line normally comes in.

Squishy boobies in the sand was brilliant, pitty it got very wet and you got drenched though. The Settle and Carlisle route is one I really want to have a ride on, especially after playing on it on Microsoft Train Simulator back in the day.
