Yet another brilliant Simontrains Railways Journey and I found the Disused Railway Lines and Stations pat of the Vlog very interesting indeed my friend it just shows you how many stations and railway lines that sadly closed down due to certain industries that the railway relied on all them years ago and the rest I’m assuming would of been something to do with Dr Beaching I look forward to Part 2 of this Simontrains Railway Journey when it is released on to your channel until then my friend keep up the good work take care and stay safe

Great video, Simon! That whole area seemed to have railways going in every direction, so it's good to understand how the existing lines evolved and how the other lines became disused

I honestly learnt quite a bit making this video and it all started when looking at OS Maps at Ince, my plan was to visit this line but while looking around noticed Lower Ince and tracing the lines from that station, a idea for this video sparked, to bring a active line and a disused line together. thanks barrowc

Thanks for another great video. I didn't realise that Wigan had such an extensive railway heritage. Now I know why G lives there!

i really enjoyed this one its amazing to see Wigan Wallgate and Wigan again i arrived at Wallgate when i visited Wigan back in Sept and i walked passed that multi storey car park for the Grand arcade shopping centre when i was walking back into town from trying to visit the Wigan flashes but failed because it rained anyway Ince and Hindley are lovely stations i travelled passed them on the Salford cres to Wigan line which i rode between said stations and its a nice line to ride with lots of lovely stations im looking forward to the line towards Bolton
