Hi Mark, yes when BR twice tried to close the line it caused national outrage and luckily Michael Portillo was transport manager in the 80s and helped stop the closure, such a relaxed train ride through some gorgeous countryside, better late than never Mark enjoy your weekend cheers nigel

@@nigelharness9032 Ah, that makes sense Michael Portillo on the case Nige. It sure is a great ride. I will have a good one. You too.

Hi Alan, thanks and no the other people in the group were not very excitable at the start, was an amazing day and 1 that will live with me forever, yes going up and down the stairs really helped, cant tell you how great it was to see that 1 mile sign LOL, everyone in the group was full of it at the end, walking it with a group was great for morale and getting us all to the finish, all i wanted was to complete the challenge and finish within the 12 hours was a great feeling to do it, cheers for watching nigel

Hi Alan, thank you for watching seeing your busy with the grandson and you must have lots of other peoples videos to watch, anyways Steve from Tramp in the hills also said must be one of the best walks in the whole country, much safer going up base brown up the grassy path and coming back on yourself, your right the views are incredible towards buttermere valley and wastwater without mentioning Scafell pike and everything else, is a steep tough path from windy gap up to Great Gable not sure i will be able to get up there when iam nearly 70 so fair play. must admit i watched your video of this walk before we travelled to the lakes just for reference, thanks for your comments mate cheers nigel

Hi Anna and Alf, it was a great day and journey we had fish and chips in Settle before the ride back, everyone enjoyed the day, it goes without saying i also love the old Victorian Stations and how the men build this line is incredible, will go back soon and check out the signal box, anyways thanks for coming along cheers nigel

Hi Bruce, was a great day travelling and admiring the views thanks for coming along cheers nigel

Hi, thanks, and for coming along, cheers nigel

Thank you K1eran, and nice chatting mate, cheers nigel

Hi Marti, we had best part of 2 days rain before the walk so sour milk gill was at its most powerful, the views from great gable are some of the best in the lake district and just 80 metres short of Englands highest mountain, superb day for me and thank you for coming along cheers nigel

Hi K1eran, you have interesting vids and i also like to support channels that watch and comment on mine so no worries mate cheers nigel ps hope you like the vid tomorrow night

Hi Steve, such a pleasure to be walking in the Borrowdale valley on such a nice day, the two previous were pretty wet, the scenery is pretty special there, thanks for coming along cheers nigel

@@nigelharness9032 enjoyed watching mate

nice one Steve

Hi Bruce, the lakes are a 4 hour drive away from me and only get a couple of times a year so its a real treat to be walking in that area, yes amazing views and waterfalls so thanks for coming along, hope your well cheers nigel

Hi, nice to hear from you, pleased you enjoyed the views, have a great week cheers nigel

Thanks Mark, great you came along for the premiere, the Tarns and waterfalls are just as impressive as the summits, the history of the packhorse bridge makes you think way back to who crossed it before me mindblowing, was a memorable day, thanks again for watching and enjoy your week mate cheers nigel

@@nigelharness9032 A pleasure as always Nige - just good vibes bro. Yes, they are just as impressive - it's all part of the mountain even the bridge. Our imagination is a big part of our walks. I will have a bgood week. Peace.

Thanks mate just watched your wild swim lovely afternoon for it, in todays modern world its hard to slow up and take things in, our walks take us away from modern life and let our imagination take over great hobby to be in, with the countryside and wildlife just love to immerse myself in it, peace mate

@@nigelharness9032 Hey, replied back there Nige. thanks old mate. Yeah, I get your sentiments there totally. And it's always there for us.

hi there, thanks for watching cheers nigel

Thanks, enjoy your weekend cheers nigel

Hi Anna and Alf, yes think doing the walk with a group was good plenty of encouragement, your right was Gods bridge a giant slab of limestone over the water, we got a wonderful day with the weather and views, thanks and was a great experience the only down side was i missed the pub meal at night but was ok the next day, thanks for coming along cheers nigel

Hi Steve, thanks, sure is mate, thats all i wanted to do finish before 12 hours, all the best nigel

Hi Carrie, thanks, i walked up Ingleborough in february and it nearly killed me also LOL, so i knew i had to get much fitter, its an achievement which will last with me forever, if you put in the hard training you could also do it, anyways thanks for watching cheers nigel ps will look out for your ingleborough vid

Hi Mark, such a classic route but its as hard as you imagine, yeh your right was getting the drink down me but maybe my choice of food didnt sustain me very well, yes we will be planning another epic challenge for next year, i remember the days when sportsman were sick after a training session and they thought that was a good one LOL, fantastic experience and thank you for watching all the best mate cheers nigel

@@nigelharness9032 Ah, drink and challenges never mix well Nige - better to stick with the fruit juice. I look forward to the next one sick and all - maybe. I was an elite swimmer and have been sick in training a number of times - that's how hard you can push it. Mad people eh? A pleasure as always.

Hi Mark, we already planning next years big challenge, wow an elite swimmer thats impressive, mad people maybe but we make wonderful memories for ourselves, the harder it is to succeed at something and make it is what shapes us, love your feed back cheers mate nigel

@@nigelharness9032 Hey, that's good Nige. Enjoy the planning mate. Yeah, trained every day thousands of meters, was coached by some of the country's top coaches and swam all over. Enjoyed it all - as you say it shapes us. Peace bro.

Hi Richard, was a weekend to remember, everyone made it special as well, cheers for watching nigel

Hi Sharon, beautiful place, ye getting back to normal now thanks, is a tough challenge walking 25 miles plus going up and down them mountains, but a great experience thanks for watching and hope your well cheers nigel

Well done Nigel. That’s one tough challenge. The descents off those hills definitely take more out of you than the climb up. Glad you had such a fab time

Hi Anthony, nice to hear from you mate, yes it is a tough challenge but we did have a great time with the 8 of us and will last in the memory a long time, cheers for watching nigel

Thanks K1eran, pleased you enjoyed the video, and yes nice chatting while the vid was playing, catch you next time cheers nigel

Hi Mark, yes didnt fancy getting bit at all, loved the old water tower, a biplane and of course the steam locomotives really add to the walk, the Orchids were another bonus, was a beautiful day, thanks for watching and hope the weather improves for you guys in the west cheers nigel

@@nigelharness9032 No, neither would I Nige - seen one once though. Yes, the water tower still being used is awesome as was that plane. Orchids and all a result. Grey outside but good.

enjoy the weekend Mark

@@nigelharness9032 I will Nigel. Thanks mate-peace.

Hi Anna, not a problem nice you have watched now, thought you would have loved the bronze age stone circle and standing stones, yes as far as i can find the hollow may well have been an old farm stead, no steam with the 1956 loco was it was running downhill and didnt need to be chugging, pleased you enjoyed this, i have just returned from the 3 peaks challenge and had no internet, enjoy the rest of the weekend cheers nigel

thank you Carrie 3 days til the challenge

Hi Alan, ye still boggy in parts at least it stayed dry LOL, wonderful sight a steam loco going through the british countryside, not very long at all now for the 3 peaks challenge, enjoy your summer visit to Goathland with your grandson cheers nigel

Hi there, thanks for watching enjoy your evening cheers nigel

Hi Bruce and Otis, bit of waiting around for the trains but such a peaceful day didnt mind, thanks for watching cheers nigel

Hi Alan, i dont know either LOL, he didnt start out to do it all but just kept going and did the whole route in less than 9 hrs wow, ye a nice one to do with a bit of scrambling, worth visiting hull pot as well, ye hopefully the weather is kind when we finally get to walk the whole route, cheers for coming along nigel

Hi Bruce, ye we was hoping to get to the summit before the clouds and rain moved in but not fast enough LOL, the drone views were amazing, thanks for watching cheers nigel

Hi Carrie, ye you dont tend to get the camera out as much in them conditions, breathtaking landscape thanks for coming cheers nigel

Hi Richard, the countdown begins, the rain didnt dampen our spirits, Jons drone footage excellent, was another great day out see you up there very soon cheers nigel

Hi there, thanks for coming along, enjoy your weekend cheers nigel

Hi Anna, ye think you would love it in the Yorkshire dales very unspoilt, apparently the 60 foot deep hull pot can completely fill with water, ye more great training done not long now, and Jons drone footage is wonderful, thanks for staying the distance and seeing the train, just made it a perfect day, enjoy your weekend cheers nigel

Hi Mark, your so right could encounter any weather on the day of the challenge, moody weather up in the fells is a special time, ye lovely sink hole and another great training session, hope the weather improves cheers nigel

@@nigelharness9032 That's right Nige - be ready for anything - moody vibes and all. Yeah, how old is that hole? Very old! Here's to more training and good weather.

just a quick google on hull pot, its a collapsed cavern seems 1st mentioned in the 18th century, all that rain in the area keeps changing the landscape mate seeing its limestone county

@@nigelharness9032 Ah, Limestone - makes sense - a very porous rock.

you got it Mark, very porous,

Hi there, pleased you enjoyed the video and of course the Steam loco going past Ribblehead station, thanks for watching, ps more Steam trains in the next vid as heading to the NYMR very soon, cheers nigel
