Hi Jen, This vlog made a lovely change from hopping on and off trains, it was a pity you weren't able to pin-point exactly where the tramway was, but there were plenty of bricks about...you did seem to be heading away from where it was but you did find plenty of water though. Were any of your family sea-farers by any chance? Take care and see you next time, but most of all stay safe. Cheers, Jon B. x
This was such a lovely video. That forest was gorgeous and I love how excited you got about all the little bits and bobs of history, even if you weren't exactly sure what they all were. I do the same. It's still exciting to see and explore and come across stuff like that, even without all of the context. This was a fun little explore. Also, now you've got me thinking and I wonder when the last dam built in the US was either. Now it feels like the only significant public works projects here are roads (yick).
Glad you enjoyed Entwistle so much. For a minute there I thought you were going to get sucked into some sort of twilight zone episode where there's always a reason to just miss one more train ... glad you made it out in the end to continue the journey 😄
Thank you, Jen. I grew up in Blackburn, worked for a few years in Darwen, had lots of walks around those reservoirs. After being away for years, I was shocked to find the line singled and Entwistle station reduced to what it is. You recalled some nice memories.
7:34 is that a Half as Interesting reference? Regardless, this was a great video, Entwistle reservoir is a really nice place to visit 😄. I like these slower paced videos more where it's exploring a nice place in more detail than just ticking off a load of station.
Hey Jen, I want to tell you that I tried to emulate you regarding visiting all the Overground stations from Gospel Oak to Stratford. And I didn't make it further than Camden Road because from there I decided to follow the canal to the Regent's Park. I appreciate your videos even more because regardless of being passionate about trains and public transport, making such videos is still hard work. Especially when the moment you take out a camera at a station, a security announcement is played over loudspeakers. Or if the weather is hot or hottish as in my case. So once more thank you for hard work which involves making great videos like yours. I hope I haven't been too long-winded .
Entwistle def looks like a really nice quet peacefull area & even tho i have traveled up & down that line i def need to get off at Entwistle station at some point brilliant vlog as always
The station at Entwhistle has been a request stop for some time, However not so long ago trains would only stop on request every 3 hours. I could never figure that out! As Jen appeared to discover there's a nice pub by Entwhistle station if you've done with walking and/or missed your train!
That bit at the end: you just know there was somebody listening with a hidden microphone and intentionally started playing that message when you started speaking.
Probably depends what you mean by new dams. The Ben Cruachan power station dam was built in the '60s. It's for hydro electric scheme. The dam in Pitlochry was built in the '50s. It has a power station built in and a fish ladder.
Cracking vid as always Jen. How many of those awesome high rise signal boxes are left nowadays? I know there's a few - Haltwhistle is the only one I have been too but I wonder if there's a number out there?!
A while ago, you did a piece of LNER's 'simplified' fares trial. It's reassuring that MD David Horne speaking in the industry mouthpiece Modern Railways claims the trial has been 'positive'. So reassuring or such rubbish? Discuss!
David Horne has no intention of improving our railways, he's firmly in the camp of extracting as much money as possible out of them to ensure he and his counterparts continue to get paid ridiculous amounts while the real staff on the ground are dealing with a cost of living crisis and fighting to get paid what they're worth.

If you have answers, I'm open to hearing them! (As long as you're respectful 😊)
This was great. Lovely landscape just waiting to be explored.
Imagine having an abandoned tramway back in service. That would be nice to see how the tramway was like back in the good old days.
Great video, love how unplanned it was!
Thank you Jen , your videos are always a joy.
Hi Jen,

Take care and see you next time, but most of all stay safe.

Jen I am not surprised you were reluctant to leave, the place has a magical feel about it, such great commentary too!
Oh, I do love your videos, this is one of the best 🙂 Please don't ever change them.
Don't worry about not being prepared for steps. Its not a Tragedy!

Great vlog exploring Entwistle Jen. It sure looks stunning!

Classic Jen comment - Mills doing Mill stuff
Yes, I thought that was typically classic as well...😅
Lovely music in this. (And I#ve only just started the video.)
Brilliant video Jen and glamorous assistant!
Thank you, Jen. I grew up in Blackburn, worked for a few years in Darwen, had lots of walks around those reservoirs. After being away for years, I was shocked to find the line singled and Entwistle station reduced to what it is. You recalled some nice memories.
Thank you for sharing Jen.
Rumour has it that Jen is still there, walking round the reservoir ;)
Excellent exploration there, Jen!
Another lovely gentle Jen video. Really gre#t
nice one jen,you certainly get around,great stuff.....................jpj
Made a few trips to Entwistle during my time at Salford Uni. All ended up at the Strawbury Duck. which did a mean chile at the time.

Great video Jen. So lovely to see you enjoyed it. The woods look so wonderful.
Excellent video Jen i really enjoyed you both exploring the beautiful place. 😊
Being in such a beautiful place, who can blame you for wanting to spend another hour there, and another..........

It looks a nice area, thanks for the video.
Well that was something 😀! Great video as usual Jen!
We got lost once doing one our vlogs by using Google maps lol looks lovley place it's not far from we live brillant vlog keep up good work
reading the title - has Jen ever been to Weymouth Harbour Tramway?
Many many many years ago!
Great video, Jen!
So beautiful.
Tramway 👀JenOnAbandont 😉. But seriously, I enjoyed this episode
You like a good viaduct - wharrabout a good pair of viaducts?!
Are you flirting with me? 🤣🤣
@@JenOnTheMove of course 😂

As Jen appeared to discover there's a nice pub by Entwhistle station if you've done with walking and/or missed your train!
Jen's continuing search for somewhere nice to retire
Great video! I reccomend you visit thhe beutiful Harrogate line one day!
It’s on my list!
@@JenOnTheMove Great! Knaresborough is amazing!

8:20 very Dollis Brook! \m/

The Claerwen Dam outside Rhyader was completed in 1952. Like the other dams in the Elan Valley, it supplies water to Birmingham.
At the beginning when you said "one Hour" I did think that's not enough time.
All you will be doing is Clock watching, and rushing about.
Interesting that the East Lancashire Line and the East Lancashire Road aren't close together.
Cracking vid as always Jen. How many of those awesome high rise signal boxes are left nowadays? I know there's a few - Haltwhistle is the only one I have been too but I wonder if there's a number out there?!
Sounds Like a case for Paul Whitewick
How about a new series called "Jen Finds Something" ?
Its ok too have more Qs than answers!
You have questions, I have questions. How did Glamorous assistant beat the urge to push you in to the stream?
WWHAT A SOME OF THE PRETIEST BUILD SEABLE FROM A STATION.
