[@kathrynbrock1558]

I’m going on the Carlisle to Settle railway this year. It’s been on my to do list since childhood. Can’t wait to see Ribblehead viaduct . Going from Settle. Can’t wait !

[@solitaryrambler]

Ribblehead Viaduct is totally stunning, must return myself one day. Enjoy your trip on the railway 👍

Spent the night in Blea Moor signal box once around 1975 talking to the signalman. Wonderful watching the Sunrise over Whernside around 4am

Riblesdale trip was a great set of towns Settel a loverly town and market reminds me of the market in Leek my old tow. Market when. At home in the 195/6/7s before moving to Leeds University .A time of fun and work.Went on the Penineway way with friends at uni during my holiday in 1976 and the 3 peaks walk that gave me the opportunity to go down several mines with marvellous rock formations.At home went to the blue John mines in Buxton area.

What a fabulous video, thanks very much. My goodness those Viaducts are spectacular. The one at Ribblehead in particular. I have never seen it in real life so must do so.

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoyed it, yes the viaducts are wonderful aren't they. Thanks as always for watching :)

@@solitaryrambler Thanks Patrick, I must visit someday.

11:01 - You brought back some great memories from walks we had up there. The Blea Moor signal station mark the half way point to the waterfalls further along that path. In the spring they are often noisy, and in the summer they are ideal to cool off, although you dont get to see them from the path. It carries on in a circle and you end up on the crest of Whernside, with spectacular views, if it isnt clouded over. Ingleborough hill also has a nice walk, as does Pen-y-gent, and much shorter too!

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks, great to know I brought back some good memories for you. Thanks for watching :)

[@pete7179]

What a great film,I'm really enjoying watching these. Although I'v been up Pen-y-ghent I'v never been to the other places featured here so it was interesting to see them,and what a way to end the walk. Thanks Patrick and everyone else involved in making these. Pete.

[@solitaryrambler]

I was very excited to stay in the Yorkshire Dales for a few days to make several films in the area back in 2014, pretty pleased with all of them including this one. Thanks again Pete for watching :)

For some reason, Patrick, I always thought of Settle being just a small village, rather than a town like it is. I got that impression with thinking it was because most other locations on the Settle and Carlisle railway are smaller. Anyway, it looks quite a nice place to visit, and the three notable mountains are all nearby, too. Looks like a grand little market as well. Stainforth Force are impressive warterfalls, and the Ribblehead viaduct is a most classic structure of civil engineering. I have travelled that line once, and I did think that the area looked lovely from the train. Many thanks for an interesting video, Patrick.

[@solitaryrambler]

Settle is a lovely town, would make a great base if I ever return to the Yorkshire Dales. There are so many lovely waterfalls in the Dales, Stainforth Force being another lovely one of course. Yes the Ribblehead viaduct is really impressive, would love to travel on the train over myself one day. Thanks Ffranc for watching 👍

[@Mrade0161]

Another great video, I think I'll be getting my walking boots out of retirement, and you've gained another subscriber 👍🏻

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks Adrian! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching and subscribing! Cheers, Patrick :-)

Not to far from our neck of the woods Patrick , myself and lee , travelled up the settle Carlisle during a week in august -2015 , she,d never been on it before and was blown away with the spectacular sceney , enjoyed on the journey , id forgot just how steep a climb the line took , just after ribblehead , but I hadn't forgot the beautiful landscapes that awaited us .... The ribblehead viaduct is an absolutely wonderful work of art in my opinion , and were planning on gojng back to stand below the arches , and photograph them soon , also I want to show lee the monument built below the central span to mark as a reminder of the guys that built but also lost their life during the construction of this mammoth piece of history... Also nice to see the beginning of the River Ribbles Journey , this same river passes very close to our house , as doe,s the Ribble Steam Railway .... Settle is a charming little town ,and it was nice to see it featured in your film ... Thank you so much once again Patrick a very enjoyable journey .... Frank And lee......

I spent 5 days night in the Yorkshire Dales back in September 2014, so this is the first of 4 films I made in that area during my stay. I've never travelled on the Settle to Carlisle Railway, it's always been on my to-do list, so one day! Having visited most of the area through which it runs I can believe what people say when it's considered the most scenic railway in Britain. As you say the Ribblehead viaduct is a wonderful work of art. I love Settle too and did revisit it briefly when I was back up that way last November. Thank you Frank and Lee. Cheers, Patrick :-)
