Thanks for sharing this video so that we can see how the work is done. Tremendous. It was great that Volker Rail came up trumps.

Great to see guys who know what they are about getting the job done efficiently and quietly. As an engineer it is great to watch. Thank you.

Dropping stone is always interesting like using the shark to spread stone dropped from the dogfish centre door.

I was expecting to see a brake van with ballast ploughs fitted!

Nice filming well done 👍

Looks like a bit more ballast on the right of the tamper would help, seems a bit scant

Very well done to all concerned, look a very nice job indeed . 👍

May just be the camera angles but the new track seems better aligned than maybe it did before - a smooth curve. Well done everyone.

Beaver tamper from Volker Rail does a super job.

Great to see this specialised machinery doing a good job.

Hi Neil, I just found this post, and was wondering why was the track realigned? Ah I just heard your comment

You should all be proud of what you have accomplished. Well done👍

This looks more 'main line' than a lot of the railway network.

Hazelwood next then, eh?!

Very good to see this. A timely reminder of difficult and very dirty work needing doing and tackled. Best wishes to the house residents who have been obviously living within a nightmare after the landslips. All being well I shall join you AT DUFFIELD ! -in a short period of time. Aptly for the date, surrender was not an option...............WELL DONE the EVR team.

Thank you Neil for posting this excellent and most informative video. I look forward to taking the train once more from Duffield, courtesy of all the detailed planning and hard work that has gone into re-aligning the track in such a short space of time. Cheers, William Skinner.

I have just stumbled across this lovely time capsule and I'm only the second to comment and the 5th to like, amazing!

What steam train is that

Epic bro

What is the loco is it Cathrine or duke

Chanel Is epic bro

is that a e2 tank engine

Nice to see Eric in action 😊

A good video Neil :)

Its lovely to see the EVR running again, albeit a test run, but nevertheless great to see. :)

Great filming. 2 good tank engines. Both versatile locos and I look forward to a visit later in the year.

Nice to see Cathryn come to fruition, well done to all involved👍 Do you know whether she will be ready in time for the steam gala in September?

"Cate" -just a picnic for the teddy bear ?

What's the bell signal for"Signalbox entering section" then?

Good Video!

Nice clear & plainly presented. Very pleasant to listen to and suits the railway scene perfectly. Were you ever a health and safety officer? Brilliant :)

Absolutely superb Mr F-L.

when I was a small kid, I can remember going up into that Signal Box with, if I remember rightly, a lady called May, I loved watching her pull the levers and turn the big wheel to open the gates, then watch the stone trucks clatter by... I think she lived in the house on the opposite side of the road... 🚂

A pleasant little break from the tedium, Neil ! Tempus has definitely fugitted ! Such a shame the connection was whipped out with such determination... One day ? S.

Excelsior.. (UPARDS!)

I've set a reminder and look forward to it...

Mark Fowler - owner of 7529?

A 'walk and ride' , what a great idea. look forward to doing that.

What happened to Toffo?

Did the owners ego get in the way in the confined space of the engine room?

cool

Great to see this footage. Congratulations on getting to Duffield and the mail line junction. Looking forward to travelling the whole line next spring.

Sounds like a silent footage to me

Could I borrow you to clear my garden?
