A Haunted Canal! Carnforth to the end of the Lancaster Canal by Narrowboat - Ep. 53

[@richardishereagain]

Came here for the peace and tranquilty your vids give me. But stayed for the bravery and honesty regarding your mental health. Episode 9 was a game changer for me. Finally someone has put into words how I feel on a daily basis. I've been able to show my partner your vlog and say "this is how I feel, this is what my brain does when things get too much, when I get too many inputs" But not only that but your insight has given me insight, what I need, what I should do to start trucking through life. So thank you so much!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Aww, thanks Richard! I'm really glad a lot of people took a positive from it. x

A lovely ride for an old widow stuck in her home. Thankyou, love you xxx

The music was fantastic! It set the feeling for the cruising. Thanks for the ride-a-long, such beautiful scenery. Have fun!

I love your choice of music for the vids......just the right volume too.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thanks 👍

[@lindastorey6685]

@@FoxesAfloat I agree about the volume of music,its just right.So many vlogs have really loud music,and if you listen with ear buds in like I do its deafening.

[@Phantomthecat]

Question guys that this video made me think about - maybe for your next Q and A? What are your thoughts on the amount of narrow boats on the system - are there too many? Or only in some places? With what looks like quite a few companies making decent amounts of new boats, where’s the tipping point before you can’t get around the system any more without struggling all the time? As always, love your work - Gav.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Great question. The number of boats is rising, but only very gradually.

[@stevesrepairs3815]

Thanks for sharing another great adventure on Silver Fox, a beautiful part of the north west of England. You guys seem to be having a great time there and Dillon looks like he's having fun also. All the best Stevie

[@FoxesAfloat]

Cheers Stevie! We're enjoying it :)

[@terrystephens1102]

Fantastic photography guys, beautiful countryside. Love the commentary and, the zany humour . Your mooring spot is very close to the noisey motorway. ❤️👍👏👏👏

Hey Terry 👋 Yeah, the M6 was really noisy but still a nice spot. x

[@duncanmccloud5012]

I watch a number of the narrowboat vids but this one had great scenery, great set up, music and editing. The only one I have ever watched twice. Good on ya.

Just found this channel,and I couldn’t agree more 😃

[@painmagnet1]

I didn't know anything at all about the canal system in England until finding this channel. Being aboard a narrowboat seems like an idyllic life to choose. Hopefully the plans to maintain and upgrade the canals continues to go forward so that there is room for all who choose it.

[@FoxesAfloat]

We hope so too! x

[@Catonkey1]

Binge watching the series, love it. Talking of creepy theres a section on the Grand Union near me which has 2 trees just full of Crows, and they're proper loud when you approach. Just cawing at each other. Feels like something out of a horror film.

[@fastmower]

Top job on the effects for the Capernwray Arm section! I worked as a ranger on the canal a few years back and that was one of my favourite bits of it - proper backwoods feel to the place. I live not fifty yards from the cut in Carnforth - I'll give you a wave if I see you, but might draw the line at following you along the towpath and stopping every time you look round...:-)

[@FoxesAfloat]

Ha ha! This is my favourite comment so far! 🏆

[@willsgetoff1157]

Lovely to see you both looking so well, beautiful camera work as usual and what stunning views. Can't wait for the next installment.

4,500 views on the day of publication. Well done guys. The quality of your work is fantastic. And all done to such tight timescales.

It's mind-blowing how we get so many views. Totally mind blowing! 🤯

[@markellis4866]

When this was filmed I lived in a house backing onto the canal at Bolton-le-Sands and used to work to walk from one end of the village to the other on the canal path. The woman you thought was stalking you is in fact a man (not me!) who always used to say hello. Brilliant series of videos - thank you

[@angelacross2216]

We used to go there for our holidays. Fifty years ago. I still remember the bay, red squirrels, and sinking sands.

[@berniebne8243]

My parents retired to Slyne, next door to Hest Bank very near the house with direct access to the canal. I've spent many happy hours walking and cycling alongside the Lancaster Canal. There is a fantastic 2nd hand book shop in Carnforth and it was the home of the Flying Scotsman (Steam Town) for many years. I believe that the Lancaster is the longest stretch of canal in the UK without any locks? It's a pity that they lost the section into Kendal when the M6 was built. Thank you for the video it brings back many happy memories.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Yeah, we cover that in next week’s vlog. You’re right about it being a long way without locks!

Outstanding part of the country and what a way to see it.I have been to Carnforth a couple of times I'am a bit of a steam train fan.Vulcan bomber thats one fine aircraft pitty XH558 is no longer flying I saw my first Vulcan B Mk1 XH498 (Dambusters) 617 Sqn as a young kid almost crash at Wellington Airport New Zealand Oct 1959 it undershot runway 34 and damaged the lefthand landing gear and wing tip, the Captain gave it full power and it managed to climb away with fuel leaking from the wing it flew to RNZAF base Ohakea for a safe landing it was repaired and returned to the UK Jan 1960 and remained in service til 1967.Awesome video boys.

[@douglasfrank9323]

At the start of the video it seemed a lovely day and a lovely view. I enjoy the varying views of the countryside. Some of those closed in bits remind me of streams I've canoed.

I thought the spooky jetty looked amazing 😁 it reminded me of parts of the Norfolk Broads. I don’t know if you’ve been but some parts made me feel like I was in the devils bayou, I was sure I could hear banjos! This was a great video and it’s the first time I’ve seen Morecambe Bay from the canal. If I won the lottery I would definitely buy a house with a canal front mooring and imagine being near the sea I would love that. It would have to be away from roads, railway lines and motorways. The number of times I’ve seen fantastic properties on the canal only to find a high speed train goes flying past is unbelievable. I know people say you get used to it but I know I never would! Thanks as always for sharing your adventure. I’m really enjoying it.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thanks Sylvia. It's weird because as much as most noises cause me to meltdown, I could quite happily live right next to a busy railway line. I love trains! Morecambe Bay was lovely and the video/drone shots don't really do it justice. xxxx

[@sylviapage8572]

Foxes Afloat I used to travel between London and Sunderland regularly and every time the train pulled into Stevenage I used to think who would live in those flats right on the main line into London. Then one day as I was heading north to a meeting with a friend and colleague as we pulled into the station he pointed and said I live in that flat. He’s also a train enthusiast and said he loved living there especially as it’s a regular pickup point for charter trains. I have to admit I have been on several charters with the full dining service and they are great. I even did one with several friends for my 50th birthday. The Belmond is a real treat. 😋🥂

[@andrewhaines8603]

We stopped in the Capenwray back in the early eighties when we were teenagers. Only boat there for days. Looks a lot busier these days! Moorings have always been an issue. That's why the Northern reaches needs to open. The canal is just too busy for such a "short" canal.

[@andymoore9977]

Opening the Northern Reaches would be amazing - Kendal then onto Windermere!. But would it just attract more traffic? Making the approaches even busier?

[@FoxesAfloat]

It is quite busy at the moorings. Wouldn't be so bad if the dredged some of the suitable spots to allow more mooring spaces. Would be even better to reopen the whole 14 miles of the north! x

[@FoxesAfloat]

I think it would be easily managed because it can still only be accessed by the Ribble, hence you get a steady flow back and forth. x

[@1964LBH]

Awesome video! Love the scenery & music, also the " haunted movie" vibe!
