A full top to bottom permission explore of Manchester's iconic Victoria station including the now derelict B.R.S.A club and its stunning secret underground.
One of the best explores I've done and one I will never forget.
Thanks to Reece Horton Photography and Mr X for the opportunity.
Stunning old school black and whites of the BRSA's regulars courtesy of Mr Robert Wise much appreciated pal.

Wow. I thought that your videos would be great for the future generations to see how our wonderful city used to be. Sorry, I was wrong. It also brings back lovely memories for us that are here now. That was fascinating. The memory for me was meeting my father in law (who worked at Victoria) after his shift had finished and going for a few scoops in the railway men's club down them stairs opposite the station entrance. Thanks for taking me back to those great times Clarky. Keep going R-kid.

Well, I’m a 56 year old woman and I should be outraged or at the very least saying “ Oh you silly lads. You could hurt yourselves!” But guess what? I love, love , love your work. I was glued to it and totally get your enthusiasm and excitement! I too love old buildings and mysterious places and, trust me, I’d be there with you, if I could ( maybe with a flask of tea and a first aid box though) . I’m from Manchester (God’s own city 😄💕) but now live in Liverpool. My husband recently had to survey an empty Georgian townhouse and let me go along too. I was in my element, mooching into every corner. Loved it, so yes, I get your obsession. Keep it up, but stay safe! Just subscribed. X

What a stunning huge building, I never realised about any of it underground. It kept giving. Someone once tried explain to me, When we hear of underground Manchester. It’s us above. Down there was ground level. (In bygone years). I still cannot understand how nowadays built above it, if true what I was told !!! Lol. thoroughly yet again enjoyed it. Keep up the good work.

Great video, very interesting. The room you describe as once housing a full scale model railway was actually the signalling school. I actually visited and saw it in action in the 1960s. Up until about 7 years ago it was in the National Railway Museum. I assume it is still there but it was seven years ago I last visited York.

Have lived in the Far East for nearly 30 years, but have very fond memories of Victoria station, going on holidays to Blackpool by train (normally via the underpass to Platform 13!) as a kid in the 70’s, whe trains still had “3rd Class!” - never for once imagined all that lay beneath and behind what I still remember - thank you so much for arranging this and sharing it with us, which will be especially poignant for us who have know ‘her’ for the last many decades!

Before the station was rebuilt with the arena above there used to be a subway from opposition the dome cafe that gave access to the platforms then numbered 11 to 16. About half way along this underground passage there was a little wooden door near floor level and behind it was a large well which formed part of the water supply for Boddingtons brewery. This whole part of the old station was built on a plague pit and burial ground of the workhouse and chapel that was there even before the railway was built.

I've had many a good pint of Boddingtons bitter in that Staff Club. I think from memory that the wording over that archway might actually read Bottling Store. Back in the 1970s we were installing a fire alarm system in the building and had to find every room and space and there were quite a lot of rooms in the basement used as storage for the refreshment rooms and former first class restaurant.

Some of the unoccupied property above the station would be worth a fortune as an office development or even residential, witness the large blocks of flats recently constructed next to the platforms for Metrolink

I'm from the US. You sound "hard" I think they say in the UK. Like if you and I met in a dark alley at night, and you started getting angry, I'd shit my pants. But we can bond on urban exploration, because this video is excellent. I love this stuff. Thank you.

when i worked there i went down into the club a couple of times (which was unused until a shop called Mace used it for a store room) Also heard about a part of a train is stored in the dungeons of Victoria (under the concourse) which was part of a crash . Also remember when they rebuilt platform 1+2 they found human bones because the site used to be a cemetary and the green railings were still there .

It makes you sad to think back in the day when you had a job most places looked after there workers i mean just in your short video you can see how the workers had there own club and all the other benefits that came with the job that is what we all miss out on these days made to feel you are needed and appreciated now you are lucky if you can find a full time job and if you do you are worked to the ground with hardley any money for treating yourself no wonder no1 wants to work anymor all the jobs are just stuff they can not get robots to do what a sad time we are in just think when you had a job b4 it all started to go to rubbish they even took there workers on days out to build moral all you would get now is sat in a room falling backwards to let your work colleagues catch you Britain has gone downhill and will never be the same
