Funfair Lorrys Arriving and Leaving Wick
I'm rarely up your way, but some of the D Steven fleet come by West of Glasgow sometimes.
Such scenes of joyful celebration. Looked incredible.
That’s about 1/4 the size they were in my childhood days.
Nice video. I bet that fire gave you more of a tan than the Weeker sun ever could 😉
Nice video mate
A fab selection. I look forward to your 2025 work!
Caithness Rail Rambler, that's a great video. Thank you for the Steven inclusion.
@@Onthemove6801 Thanks for visiting and watching!
During a driving holiday in 2012 I was shown around the Steven depot in Scrabster to take photos and was allowed in the vehicle workshop. I was allowed the same privilege again in 2019. Steven are my favourite Scottish haulier, I have every 1:50 model produced.
@Onthemove6801 Brilliant stuff! I also have a model as well but very tempted to get another one yet!
Nice looking outfit👍
@@darrenboston342 Love there fleet always trying to get photos of there lorrys when I can!
Classic trucks one of my favourite companies
@grahamdrummond2149 Thanks for watching! Yes, same here as well and born and live in in town where they based! Might try get up to scrabster soon a visit see if I can film more lorrys up there.
Iconic fleet there, I used to run up to Caithness glass years ago, loved the cafe at Wick harbour, I also done Norfrost in Castletown, very nice people up north. Kind regards, Johnny
@Swimmingforlife. love their fleet! I remember caithness glass when I was younger, too. Harbour cafe there now Is called Wickers world and there food is brilliant! Always busy, too! I also worked at norfrost for a few months, and now it's finished! Thanks for looking, Johnny. Take care!
@Swimmingforlife Johnny, I've travelled around that part of Scotland more since leaving trucking, the furthest north we used to travel was a regular with Michelin tyres to Aberdeen and glass bulbs to Buckie, where they fitted the caps and filaments. Good to see you on here again, best wishes for 2025. Colin
@ Hi Colin, yes as lorry drivers we were all over the U.K. and I did Ireland also, both North and Southern Ireland in the mid 70s, also done Holland, sailed from Hull to Rotterdam, mind you Colin it was a one drop in The Hague. Yes you are right Colin, as drivers we were everywhere but never ever seen the sights, as they say, we were just passing through😂. Like you now Colin, my wife and I seem to do a lot more sight seeing now and visit places and quite often stop over and see a lot more. Colin I would like to wish you and your family all the best for 2025, and as we say up here, have a guid yin. Slainte Mhath, Johnny
Nice video Leon and thanks again for the mention
@@Rachelvehiclespotting No problem!
Excellent video should do more of these
a very nice tour 👍
Great video. Especially from starting off at my hometown in Invergordon and heading north to Sunderland to as far as Brora. It's also a lovely shot at Falls of Shin, too 😃
Nice video Leon
Some good locations there mate
Great shots.
Great video there mate, them joints 😍
With that headline i first thought the Ness bridge or similar had collapsed again.
Super shots and who doesn’t love an egg custard tart?
Cheers, Tim, my mate got me hooked onto them lol 😆 🤣 Now Colin, the driver, likes them too! Every time he sees us, he's inspecting Egg Custard Tarts, lol he's now on holiday 😄
Excellent Over here stateside in Texas Keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
Excellent video, a really good watch.
Living in Ardgay I know the line well and the scenery is ALWAYS awesome! Great video.....keep them coming!
Love it!
Nice video mate
It's a pity there is little non sectional track.
@sammyk.3567 as in jointed track Sound? Some parts of the line is continually Welded track. It will go like this in time. Thanks for your comment 👍 🙂
Great video. At least you managed to have a train ride in the snow on the Far North Line and for this year, too. 😀
Thanks, Brandon. I'm really wanting you for it again lol
I took a run up to Georgemas the other day. It was stunning.
@@Timstravels01 Nice 1 mate 👌 👍

No worries
it's winter and the trains still run! Marvelous!!
They do try their best regardless of how much stick by the public they get.
Great video mate. Love a snowy journey
Cheers yes love a good snowy run myself. Here's to few more hopefully. If not this year maybe next year...
Beautiful and what a cracking day.
@Timstravels01 Cheers Tim!
Music to my ears! Lovely
@TheJamster2006 Glad you like it!
I lived in Thurso from 1970 to 1974. Did the line behind a couple of 26s many a time
Really nice video Leon
Great video, Leon. There's been a lot last decade, and I see that the timber project is on the board, too. 🙂
Nice video mate, capturing history there
Nice video, left hand drive as well
Thanks it is yes. TH-cam didn't like that video. Copy righted already 😂😂 honestly why do I bother half the time lol
@caithnessrailrambler2698 sod the yanks
Nice unit and trailer, left hand drive, on uk plates, must spend alot of time abroad i guess. When i was tramping i used to try and hide away from the fridge/freezer lorries, I never know how the driver sleeps with that behind them running.😊
Nice video mate, you didn't drop your camera 😂
Great video. It's interesting to see it getting an overhaul to the end of the pier. At least it's getting it done. 🙂
Squeebs, miss at.
Brilliant thanks, very interesting stuff, was they repairing an area or what please. Just read the video description 😅
@gone-in-sixty-seconds Hi, yes, they are repairing an area that was ready to clapse. It's now set to be back filled soon with concrete. Next, I would think I was down by the otherday they where welding the metal together to get ready for backfilling, I think, and divers are working under the water, too. Unfortunately, I didn't see that part thanks for your comment 👍 🙂
@@caithnessrailrambler2698 Thanks for the detailed reply, do they weld all the joints then? Above and below water? Thanks 👍
@gone-in-sixty-seconds I think they can also weld in the water as well. Yes I think they are welding the joints together. 🙂
@@caithnessrailrambler2698 thanks for the information 👍
Nice one mate, that was a great day
Super video Leon 👍. Love that view south at Kildonan.
Great video, Leon. What a great couple of months that we have this year. August and September, did have the most best parts of 2024 this year. Along with the engineering trains in June. 😊
