Welcome to the Arthur Growler Channel on You Tube, Main focus is freight trains, line side & on railway stations in the North Wales & Cheshire region, including the local borderlands line around Hawarden Bridge. Trains in general !! Try to have a day out on the railway at least once a week. Like to explore Steam + Diesel Galas on preserved Railways and visit the local Llangollen Railway. Hope you like the TH-cam Channel..... Enjoy :-)
VERY BUSY Location for STONE TRAINS - Dove Holes Quarry & Asphalt Plant in Derbyshire
#arthurgrowler
Visit to the road bridge at Dove Holes Quarry (Peak Forest) In Derbyshire. Very busy at times with shunting in and out of the quarry sidings plus passing freight trains to and from Tunstead, Dowlow, Hindlow quarries.
Always worth a visit to this location. No footage from Great Rocks area this time as network rail blocked the parking facility with 3 vans !!

I.still say DB are scum for getting rid of their 90s...couldn't be arsed to look after them. Contrast this with freightliner who still run all theirs on the WCML

Another spectacular layout from Mr Waterman and the Railnuts. Really doesn't feel like a year since the Milton Keynes layout was here last year!
@@theretrocrowe As usual layout was fantastic also young kids (And Grown Ups!!) having fun operating the model trains.
Not only the variety with locos livery, (Ukraine flag) but of rolling stock and its condition. Some ultra clean with no 'extra' paint, others where you can not see the original paintwork, and all in between.
@@briancooper562 fascinating place to visit at times. Always something happening and as mentioned sometimes different liveries
The DB train with the DB loco leading was seen to fail as a double header. Later to leave with the ESW loco leading and the DB loco pushing.
Sounded well up the hill to Peak Forest
Excellent Footage Mate 👏 Brilliant as Always 👍
Cheers Kev Much appreciated 👍 Do like going to this location when the weather is ok !!
great vlog on channel catching trains thanks four the cool vlogs you do on channel thanks lee
No worries Lee Glad you enjoyed it
Great video Arthur in perfect sunny conditions 😎 Although it's now all 66s down there the busyness and variety of liveries keeps up the interest. Nice to see the double headers as well 👍
Always an interesting place Norman. Plenty going on back and too, Driver changes and shunting out the quarry
Great video mate, Fearless looks and sounds absolutely amazing. I was also at Chester that day to see them - I believe I met your dad when I was there, he was telling me about the TH-cam channel 👍
Agree pal. Looked superb 👌 Funny enough he mentioned you on the way to Peak Forest this morning.
Fantastic that. Great video. BTW, Wed 14th Aug 56051/56090 should be on 6J37 Carlisle-Chirk. I know you frequent Chester so thought this may help. JG.
Cheers Pal 👍 At peak Forest today so see how it goes later for the Grids
Brilliant stuff mate, I spent much of this day chasing the 37s around North Wales, I did manage to get back to Chester in time for the return leg of the tour. Shame about that unit getting in the way, would've been a great shot if it was just a bit further back instead of pulling ahead of the 57
@@theretrocrowe Hope enjoyed chasing the tractors 👍enjoy while it lasts…. Yes the 158 unit was parked there for a while then pulled away. I didn’t think it would block the view but the 57 must of started braking. That’s how it goes sometimes 🥹
Much missed up here chief! Thou tbf they did fook all in reality and hardly moved from reception sidings! Still something nice to look at other than sheds of many colours
@@gavin37688 Was good when it lasted 😀
Cracking catches Arthur, especially that top and tail test train. Both locos looked stunning and great to see Fearless back in blue 🎉
Looked stunning Norman. Hopefully performs well today
Amazing ‼️
Looks great 👍
@@arthurgrowler5749 she sure does
Great video, Even greater locos!!! D400, as she should be known looks immaculate! As does the Peak! I heard the 37s later ,when I was working in Knutsford, but not close enough to see them😢
Looks like a great tour. Hopefully all the locos get through the day 👍
How good does 'Fearless' look....... absolutely stunning job.
Done a great job on the hoover.
Busy afternoon indeed, great video. Yes I've been bombed a few times on platform 4 😢. Must admit I like the shot of the 57 and 158 side by side.😀👍, but where is that spot and is it bidirectional track?
Great to see these classic locos coming out for a run, let’s hope all goes well Paul.
Yes Mike! All these classic locos on one tour? WOW!!
Nice I saw the 37s and 50&45 at Crewe

Pair of Class 37’s Top & Tail
Surised they do not have a shunter or guard at the back of the train mentoring and controlling the reverse.
@@tiddles4x4 Shunter is only for taking the steel in & out of the Shotton Works. There was ground staff with the Cement Train
Nice video, that's some really clear footage with the drone. Tried to catch the cement train a couple of times but it's quite elusive. Pity the paper mill binned their rail ops, seeing old photos of the 08 shunting wood wagons in the 80s, would've been nice to see still going in.
@@adamreynolds2372 Yes would be great if it still had the same freight traffic. Used to be 3 steel trains them days too !! Limit access these days too. Never know with the multi million pound investment at the paper mill could connect again
I never knew Hawarden Bridge could be so much fun great video I hope you get to flim where the trains final destination ends up one day

Can people please spell Scrapping with two Ps and not one p? Scraping means something different, as in I scraped my knee. Otherwise, good work!
@@stan5990 Done 👍
A real shame that there are electric locos being scrapped whilst there are still diesels under the wires
@@theretrocrowe absolutely 💯 doesn’t make sense. What is the future of the serviceable 90’s at DB Cargo. Bad news about the Royal Mail units as well. Not going well at the moment
I understand Aggregates Industries have bought Land Recovery. Since they have left the Rail industry (sold all 59s to Freightliner) it doesn't look good for these 60s now.
Think original plan was to have their own locos but as you say new owners now. The quarry were the 60’s are stored weren’t part of the deal so who actual still owns the locos new or original owners. Interesting times. The quarry is closed at the moment
Land recovery only sold the aggregate side of the business.... Hope this helps 😉
They should never been allowed to be put into that state in the first place.
They 'should' be heading to Loughborough for fitting of CAT (class 68) power units and new ancillary equipment. No doubt a new classification to so will be interesting to see which from class 61,62,63,64 & 65! JG.

Absolute disgrace of DB. Glad they aren't my employer! They deserve to lose all UK operations. JG.
@@railfreightdrivergallagherGBRf you would think companies would use the electric locos more than diesel in the world everyone what’s to live in !!! All down to running costs I suppose ? Probably same reason as the class 60’s !!!
@@arthurgrowler5749 What I've heard is electric is too expensive unless running on long distances. The Class 60's I think DB holds a grudge against. It is a pity, however, considering how they have barely had an active career and could be an asset in the future if they were fixed up. Probably would cost too much to do so though. Nice video as always, might have to pop down and see them as they're not far.
