Thanks for this video of Calstock.. and the Tamar Valley Line. I lived in Plymouth from 1974 until 1995 and visited Calstock on a number of occasions, by car and by train. I also took the Bus from Calstock to Tavi, with Student friends from Plymouth Polytechnic, as it was back then. Additionally, I danced at Calstock on a number of occasions with Plymouth Morris Men and Plymouth Maids Cloggies, so lots of happy and pleasant memories of my years in the West Country. I enjoyed the first episode and am looking forward to the next two episodes. Keep up the good work. Russ. Hampshire.

Thank you for a very informative and enjoyable video. I filmed at Saltash during my holiday at St Germans back in June. Having lived in Plymouth and SE Cornwall for over 30 years I am very familiar with Saltash and both the road and rail crossings. The station is looking much improved since i was last in the area back in the late 1990’s.

Thanks for your kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed it. The state of the station building two or three years ago was awful. Its good the council have given it a new lease of life.

Nice, did it run around to go back to Bodmin? Bean. 😁

Yes. I've included that, as well as this, on my Bodmin Parkway video. Made a nice change to the almost total GWR monopoly!

A charming video of Liskeard station(s). Good information as well. Platform 3 Looe buildings are thankfully still standing and are in use etc. I’ve always wanted to travel to Looe on the railway from Liskeard, maybe this year I will. Just subscribed btw.

@normandunford57476 ай бұрын
At least you can get a train to Liskeard . Pocklington area we're I am you have to rely on buses and there are more times when the a1079 is gridlocked with vehicles. There used to be a perfectly good rail line between York & hull until that psycho Beeching fkd it all up.
@tadpole1969uk6 ай бұрын
Yup. I live about 8 miles away and we lost our service thanks to Beeching. Nobody predicted that cars would become so prevalent. Bus companies will only run a decently frequent service if it makes them a decent profit.
