S2E4: Travelling To The Summit Of The Most Beautiful Railway In The World: The West Highland Line

[@businessbuilding1]

Happiness is when is when Andy adds a new rail video to his channel! Glad to see you back with more videos!

[@geofftech2]

aaaah, Scotland! Excellent :-D

[@CallingAllStations]

I will never get bored of it!

[@RoddyJenkins]

Really must go back sometime e. Y last (and only) trip north of the border was back 8n 2004, when I flew [yes should’ve got the train] to Glasglow Airport from Bristol Airport and then purchased a Freedom of Scotland (?) travel pass with a railcard discount; think I was on the tail end of a YPRC ownership.the pass allowed free off peak rail travel throughout Scotland and south across the border into northern England, free travel on Scottish CityLink coach services, and ferries to the islands. It also gave a discount on the Caledonian sleepers. I forget how much I paid for it at the time, but I did notice a price hike after First Group took over ScotRail

[@hublanderuk]

Thanks for a Great video makes me want to go there. I have been and stayed at the highest pub in the country. Now want to go there

[@johnnyboy3949]

6 carriage trains? Wow. Would love trains that long in northern England

[@WTG20233]

I did the west highland line at the weekend just gone to mallaig from Glasgow... beautiful

[@tobeytransport2802]

1:47 why do your tickets have TFL roundels

[@CallingAllStations]

I prebooked them and picked them up at a TfL managed station...

[@CallingAllStations]

Also, well spotted

[@DavidShepheard]

Didn't you know that Scotland is in London Travelcard Zone 34? :-P

[@tobeytransport2802]

@@CallingAllStations ahh that explains it, thanks

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

you did that really well. I'm impressed. I have been to Scotland over 50 times and have many train vids on my channel. I have friends of over 60 years living in Dumbarton where your train stopped. That line is so beautiful that i see no point in going elswhere. thanks for sharing

Corrour. Been here this April. It was wonderful.

[@pwhitewick]

Nice one Andy and Team. Very much on our agenda for 2020. (Gorton Station just south of Corrour, UK's most remote Abandoned Station?).

[@CallingAllStations]

Could be onto something here, wow doesn’t even look like a footpath there!.. good luck with that one! 😮

[@pwhitewick]

@@CallingAllStations 8 miles we think. Bothy close by just in case!

[@CallingAllStations]

From Rannoch?

[@Karlinski73]

Ah, Corrour. One can NEVER tire of Corrour. Excellent stuff again, Mr C.

[@harleancarpenter8043]

Looking forward to the 'to be continued' bit as well. This was very enjoyable.

[@finlaycordiner3492]

keep up the good work Andy loved this video today!!

[@kirsteneasdale5707]

Lovely video of my local line, however at the point where you stated that you were above Faslane naval base, you were actually running alongside Loch Long, near Arrochar. Faslane is 15 miles down the road on the Gareloch.

[@actua99]

All those dratted trees :) Had a very similar problem on that line... but damn it's stunning!

[@deltanovember1672]

Great wee film. 👌🏼

[@ghighlandchieftain4462]

Enjoy your self up in highlands it most beautiful railway in Scotland I am big fan of channel

[@unthought_known]

Very nice place, brilliant vlog 👍

[@roboftherock]

Andy, I didn't find anything wrong with your pronunciation of the station names. Callander is Callander though, not Calendar. (6'17-6'25)

[@RoddyJenkins]

Thanks Andy and Rachel for another great video...looking forward to the next instalment!👍

[@w00df0rd]

Great video - You still in Woodford Green?

[@articeddie5494]

Can you leave the subtitles on screen a bit longer

[@darth_cole9581]

Love the videos, keep it up (notification squad)

[@608dave1]

Worked the lines in the 80s & 90s fond memories. Even better value for local rail & subway in a smaller area in Glasgow is the Roundabout ticket. If you like walking take the train to either Gourock or Greenock walk to the Lyle Hill the views are spectacular, from the opposite side of the clyde looking north. An even bigger challenge is to walk the Greenock Aqueduct ,www.theguardian.com/travel/2012/may/12/greenock-cut-inverclyde-walk, breathtaking views,

[@CallingAllStations]

Wow, top tips there. Will remember this for future trips

[@608dave1]

@@CallingAllStations Abandoned stations, lines & tunnels too in this area, google "Newton Street Tunnel" for more info....check the Flickr shots, amazing, signalling gantry's still in place.

[@harrystrains3227]

I want to win. Great video yet again Andy. Looking forward to seeing more.

[@rzholland]

Liked the blue finger nails - or was the the wife's???

[@paulbishop6091]

If I may be so bold, your "other half" is stunning

[@milohrnic2023]

1,350 ft elevation. Make sure your oxygen tanks are topped up.

[@bahnspotterEU]

It might be a beautiful line, but not the most beautiful in the world. For some really spectacular scenery you need to travel to Switzerland.

[@gillchatfield3231]

Why play cards on the 'most beautiful railway in the world'? The journey and scenery surely can't be that boring 😴🏞️

[@rubyait]

Gill Chatfield But such a good view of the six of clubs. I have never seen that on a train video.

[@eddherring4972]

Obviously a beautiful line but zero out of 10 for research, suggest you watch the last episode of All The Station’s Ireland. To be honest there are probably even more scenic railway lines than that even so claiming as you have for the West Highland line is the basis of my comment on research.
