      Hello Robert,
      Thanks for your comment. I am glad that you enjoyed the rail scene around Glenapp in 2007. I would appreciate a Thumbs Up if you think it is worthy.
      You might also like some of my other productions on the channel.
      Thanks for watching and I hope to hear from you again.

    Hi Bops,
    Thanks for your comment.
    I am not sure which scene you are referring to but the whole area is quite scenic and well worth a visit.
    I am pleased that you enjoyed the production and I hope you might enjoy some of the other productions on my channel.

    I used to work on the Glenapp to Border loop section, ran the line on an old vispa powered trike, shame they didn’t show inside the signalman’s hut where they put the staff in and pull the change over levers to release the other train.

      Hello Kerry,
      Thank you relating your background. I note your comment re the staff. Sadly, none of the staff were all that keen on me filming that element of the work. Train crews who called were on tight times and again it was not easy. I finally, got one and only opportunity.
      This production was originally intended to be part of something bigger. That idea was not really possible.
      As we communicate, I have creating a much larger production about Glenapp. It features the countryside, the trains and in one part some history. I am looking around for people who worked at Glenapp or passed through as part of the job.
      Perhaps we could catch up sometime.

      Hi Robert,
      I am thinking you mean detailed video. Perhaps not but thanks anyway for your comment.

      Hello Samuel,
      My apologies, I have been away from my office and home for 8 days and I cannot normally respond whilst away.
      Thanks for your comment, I appreciate the Thumbs Up. Glenapp remains a special place and I am working on a new project relating to Glenapp and the surrounding area. It might a few months away yet but is will be long form with a variety of trains. So please look out for this release.
      I also hope you find some of my other productions interesting.

    What's in the open top containers at 4:18 ?

      Hi Samuel,
      I apologise for not responding earlier but I have been away for seven weeks.
      I would have to check again but I believe that containers were filled with quarry products of some sort.

    Lots of standard gauge trains passing through Glenapp :-)

    Can see why Inland Rail will provide a much better route for these heavy intermodal trains than this hilly, slow and old-fashioned line.

      Thank you Marc for your comment.
      Overall the idea of Inland Rail is good but it too has to contend with mountains. Of course, it also needs to be built.
      Thanks for watching this production. I hope you might check out some of my other productions and give any you like a Thumbs Up.
