I love looking at a livestream on KZbin located at the Colyford Station and wondered what the tram ride was like, it’s beautiful! Thank you for filming it :)

I watch it too! Did you see the cam? I'm not sure, but it has to be on that pole on the other side of the road on your right. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6OTp5turNCWY80 Leaves of a tree are always blowing.

Lovely video. I rode the tram myself about 40 years ago, but might have only been as far as the pub. So sad that the branch had to be destroyed first, like so much else, thanks to Marples,Beeching and so many more. Lovely to see some "big railway" bits and pieces still there, and how good Colyford station looks. Great Stuff !! Thank You.

My wife and I took a trip on the tram in May 2023 too, visiting from Canada, so this brought back lots of lovely memories. I enjoy watching the livestream from Riverside.

Thank you, Sir and your family. What a fantastic tram ride you had there. It was longer than I thought. It would be. Great Day and weather you had. Thanks again. Must make that trip. I happen to live in Dawlish. And I have been up that way. To go to Peco Place.

Glad you enjoyed the video. I have to admit, we weren't too impressed with the peco place. I thought you'd get more than just 1 train ride with the entrance ticket.

Claude Lane is responsible for leaving us this wonderful tramway making use of a former branch railway closed by Dr. Beeching in 1963

Nice video, have often thought about going there, but dont know how disabled accessible it is.
@Westierules20007 ай бұрын
Disabled access is very good. There are ramps everywhere and I think they have 3 trams capable of taking wheelchairs on board. Might be worth a phonecall though to make sure the accessible tram is running all the time or if it has to be pre booked.

A lovely ride! Thanks. How do the trolley poles cross over at the bypasses?
@Westierules20007 ай бұрын
They use what's called a "frog" which is basically like a set of points for the wire.

What do you call a tram that bounces? A trampoline Looks like you had a great time guys and a lovely day too. Thanks for sharing your life with us. Looks beautiful countryside and enjoyed watching. Went on the trams at Blackpool in the 1980s and they were fun. Bit bumpy but really enjoyed them.

@@Westierules2000 This is so funny. I have watched it several times and laughed. 🤣🤣 Hopefully the kids father has a band-aid in his backpack. They are sitting by the house near the Buffet sign. At 23:55 the father stands up and turns to his son telling him the tram is arriving. The kid walks away and starts running. He was running for quite some time before he tripped. Poor kid. 🤣🤣🤣

Can anyone tell me what is the white light that flashes on the post as the tram enters some of the passing loops?
@Westierules2000 Жыл бұрын
The white light your referring to... Is that the one at Colyford station? If so, it's to do with the level crossing.
@oldbloke8816 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the response@@Westierules2000 I was thinking about the entrance to Seaton Wetlands loop as an example. I understand the flashing light at the crossing. However, thanks again for the response.
