Well, I didn't think I would see a 156 described as "heritage" for a few years yet! Thank you for another great video.

Great video, thanks Don. The Hope Valley line is so pretty, especially in nice weather. Nice to see that not quite all the semaphores have disappeared. I wonder if colour light signals will attract the same nostalgia when (if) ERTMS ever takes over.....

I suppose they will. I think for a long time, they will keep the existing signals.

Great to see you Richard. Yes, it was a rare warm day but it’s the middle of summer here and it isn’t brilliant. I keep watching your videos!

That's a line I've not travelled for many, many years! Thanks for taking me down memory line!!! By the way, there is another line that crosses the Pennines, it's the Tyne Valley line from Newcastle to Carlisle.

Much appreciated. The weedkiller does get out and about but they’re not allowed to use anything strong these days, it all has to be environmentally friendly of course.

The improvements at Dore & Totley are good, but not great. Wouldn’t it have been much better to reinstate the mainline platforms to trains to/from Chesterfield, Nottingham and Derby etc. can call?
@doncoffey5820
@doncoffey5820 5 ай бұрын
That’s true but there were about another four stations between Dore and Sheffield, where do you stop and does the cost justify saving a trip to Sheffield? Maybe it does, I don’t know.

A very nice run, clear weather, high def camera and no sun glare. Worth doing the reverse run?

To be honest, all my journeys between Manchester and Sheffield in the early 90's were all via Stockport.

Yes, both TPE and EMR run express from Sheffield to Stockport but that stopping service should go via Romiley.

It really has dropped but they must have been confident it was safe. They are currently driving enormous piles in. I’ll show the finished product in a future video.

Class 156 is now heritage??? there is still a lot of them around along with the 150' and 158's , can we afford to make new ones???, we are still waiting on 'Great British Rail' to arrive.

Is heritage code for old and knackered? These have always been my least favourite stock but appreciate they are needed. Do you miss driving them Don?
@doncoffey5820
@doncoffey5820 5 ай бұрын
Haha, you could say that but they constantly update them so only the frame and shells are original. As you say, they simply can’t do without them. I used to enjoy doing the Blackpool services from Buxton but I struggled with legroom in them and sitting sideways was a sure way to get backache. You can’t beat a 185!

It was yes, they’re all transferring to Northern as they have brand new stock down there.

Your videos contain far too many information bars. I can't concentrate on the god damn trip for them. I don't know what you're on about anyway for most of the time.
