Superb video Mike. Love the shots of the shunting in Papworth. You know I love that kind of stuff. Ely has so much railway character that you can't go wrong with a good day out there going to different spots. Top video Mike. Speak soon. Ben

[@antman09ful1]

Glad you enjoyed thought this was a superb video Ben, I did enjoy the afternoon in this area with Matthew. Yes we will speak next week. Mike.

[@colingarwood9971]

Brilliant video Mike. 3 clips of "Cappagh" blue 60028 was very nice mate, and i dunno how you manage to find some of these out of the way locations but i'm glad you do. Thanks for sharing Mike, take care and have a good week, Colin.

[@antman09ful1]

Colin it makes the hobby for me more interesting trying to find different places to film, ok sometime its crap but its worth taking the chance. Thank you for your comment, and yes it was good getting extra shot of the 60. ATB Mike.

[@donnypete]

Fantastic selection there Mike . And you were right about them locations. And semaphores, love it

[@antman09ful1]

Thanks for watching Dave, its a area I do like to get out to as there are lots of places to do our hobby, but you do get the windy days a lot. Regards Mike.👍

[@berksandhantsfreight]

@@antman09ful1 Its rare not to get a windy day wherever you go these days mate

[@SYKAROST]

Very interesting Mike, still looking to head out that way when i can fit it in..... probably when its snowing lol. Regards, Brian.

[@antman09ful1]

I will give it another go Brian, but I think it will be next year now. Regards Mike.

Great set Mike. Well worth the trip, thanks 👍👍👍👍

[@antman09ful1]

Oh yes Robert I will agree with your comment as I enjoyed trying out some new locations, and I want to try another next time in the same area. Take care Mike.

[@johnwhitehouse9885]

Thank you Sir Great video and as always Enjoyed

[@antman09ful1]

Glad you did enjoyed it John, because that tell me its worth sharing my video. Thank you for watching, Mike.

[@MalcolmBoughen]

Great to have content on my doorstep, I live a couple of hundred yards from Ely North Junction, lots of interesting stuff come through Ely. With ref to Angel Trains based at Papworth Sidings quite a lot of interesting units stored there, over on the other side of the side there are at least 3 180's there ex EMR units also several HST Cars and carriage stock. Lots of other great locations in the area to film from.

[@antman09ful1]

That is great information Malcolm, is there anyway of seeing from the other side. I will give the area another go possible next year now, ATB Mike.

[@MalcolmBoughen]

Queen Adelaide Way runs directly along side the side on the other side of the River Great Ouse allowing a view into the site from the road. There is an access bridge over the river into the site now whether Papworths and Angel Trains would allow a member of the public onto the site I don't know but it might be worth finding out. @@antman09ful1

Thank you Malcolm.

Presume middle Rd crossing near march close to where 66 Northampton saints hit tractor in 2021

[@antman09ful1]

I thought the GBRf accident was nearer to Whittlesea, but I could be wrong, thanks for checking out my video.

[@roxycrossdresserinhighheel1272]

@antman09ful1 Yes, just before middle rd was where train came to rest hit it at crossing just before by farm in background I live just down road

Oh really.

[@annamarietrindal1967]

Silly question I know but since WHEN has Ely had an avoiding line? I have filmed there many times and I never saw it.

[@antman09ful1]

Well if a train is travelling from March to Kings Lynn it doesn't have to go to the station to run round.
