  • 🛤️ Time for a trip down the Angerstein Wharf Branch! 🛤️
    🟥 Built to serve Angerstein Wharf, the line opened in 1852 and was a hugely important part of the Greenwich Peninsula, providing a huge variety of freight services for a multitude of different duties. We cover the history of the line, it's present-day operations, and what the future holds for the branch.
    ❌ We also take a look at the branch's popular foot crossing - one of the only crossings of its kind in London. This is the same crossing that has been featured by the likes of Geoff Marshall and Jago Hazzard - links to those excellent pieces are at the bottom of this description!

    Geoff Marshall did a video on that small little freight line in Southeast London going back several years ago.

      Thanks Morthren! You would not believe the heartbreak trying to film material at those different angles away from the physical crossing - the amount of times a timetabled movement would either cancel at the last minute or stop further up the route and take a much later path, I could have cried. Worth the strife though for the end result 👍

      @@trainsonthebrain I can very much believe it! The work that can go into 10 - 20 seconds of footage sometimes can amount to days! Persistence pays off though. 🙂

      Thanks very much CPTrains and agreed, the 66's initial toot did startle me a tad! New content coming soon - not long after I started the channel work became exceptionally busy with a promotion, so I had to put some videos on hold, but getting back into the groove now! 👍
