    I would love to see shunter shunting old parcel vans at Diggle again, I wished they would reopen Clegg street railway shed in Oldham and shunt parcel vans , I didn’t see much of that when I was a kid , I really missed a lot.

    Nice syncing of track side sound with drone footage 😉...and lucky timing with the 68+70 and those photo-bombing DMUs 😅

      Well noticed mate, it’s not always perfect but can usually get it pretty close. Beats no sound 👍🏻 I could see that 185 coming on traksy, thought a bomb was well on the cards 😂

    Super selection Luke, plenty of variety with the weather as well. This brings back happy memories of last year when my wife and I met up with you on the bridge by the hotel.

    Thanks! Get yourself a sarnie & a coffee in Carlisle. Keep warm & have a great time. Or you could always nip to the Shanghai Shanghai buffet on Botchergate (turn right outside the station). Fed me well on a couple of railtour breaks.

      @DiggleJunction  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Can’t thank you enough for this Tim, it’s very much appreciated. My content is free to all so I’m always very grateful when someone feels it’s worth donating towards 👍🏻 thanks for the tip on the buffet, that sounds exactly like what I’ll need for a break! This will be put towards it. Cheers mate.

    Another brilliant vid, thanks! Looks like the electrifcation works are growing larger on each edition of the diary. Seems like a lot of trees/shrubbery have been sacrificed in this edition?

    • @DiggleJunction
      @DiggleJunction  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks a lot Phil, there’s been a lot of chopping going on down the other side. I think they’re trying to make the entry road to the yard a bit more suitable for bringing in heavy machinery. Hopefully they at least trim some of the trees in the way of the cam! Haha.

    Hi Luke. I've just stumbled across the fact that in 1923, there was a fatal crash at Diggle Junction. Worth looking up if any of your subscribers are unfamiliar with the incident.

    • @DiggleJunction
      @DiggleJunction  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi mate, yeah it sounds like it was a pretty bad one from the various bits and bobs you can still find around the web. Put down to driver/signaller error apparently.
