Fun fact about Hamworthy, the station used to be the junction for the original line to Poole. Heading towards London, the original route turned to the north calling at Wimborne Minster and Ringwood before rejoining the current route just before Brockenhurst. The reason being, what we now recognise as Bournemouth and its suburbs, simply didn't exist when the railway arrived. The original Poole Branch still exists, albeit nowadays used by freight trains
Hamworthy station is at the entrance to Turlin Moor, one of the most depraved and crime-ridden areas of Poole. Good job you didn't go exploring round there, as you'd have been mugged for sure. Hamworthy itself is quite nice.
ngl hamworthy station has a soft spot in my heart and my friends don't understand it lol, I used to live literally next to it for a good part of my life so i could hear the trains going through a lot!! also yes good job on the PSA for turlin moor, absolutely crazy area
That industrial site at Holton Heath is a former Royal Naval munitions factory and is a scheduled national monument site too. Probably the very good reason why there is little else in the neighbourhood.
@@timwilliams1693 I know and there has been recent new builds in the village but the immediate area to the station does have the old naval factory and the scheduled monument status on a large part of the industrial area. Nobody would have wanted to live nearby that when it was making bombs. And the old factory site itself will be toxic as H&S wasn't a big feature a 100 years ago and munitions are made from extremely toxic chemicals.
You can tell how old I am! Our family used to get Holiday Runabout Tickets and ply all the lines from Weymouth to Brockenhurst and Lymington. We Generally stayed at my Grandmothers in Ringwood. We walked from Wool to Lulworth Cove once. At least once the train used Broadstone to Hamworthy Junction. Creekmoor Halt, Broadstone, Wimborne, West Moors, Ashley Heath Halt, Ringwood and Holmsley all gone. Two railways that sadly didn’t survive the closures were Lymington Junction to Hamworthy Junction ( and Holes Bay Junction) and Bournemouth West to Bath Green Park. Both would have been useful today even if Bournemouth West was closed.
I'm surprised when you were in Weymouth you didn't follow the route of the abandoned line to Weymouth Harbour - this is the one that ran through the streets with a top speed of 5MPH and had to have someone walking in front with a red flag. Though to be fair, I forgot all about it until we went last year and saw the abandoned tracks and signs telling us all about it
Not outside the station itself - they've preserved some last track before it joined the road section, however they have converted the trackbed into a footpath.
Wool!!! Wool villiage is really nice to walk around and some good places to visit as well. I use Wool station to get to Bovington and the The Tank Muesum (which is about 2ish miles from Wool Station) and that's a pretty nice walk as well! I took my Dad to Dorset one year and he loved Wool, so much so I had to convince him to leave the Black Bear Pub in the centre of the village... There was a Ska band playing outside and he wanted to stay all night, not that we needed to get back to Waterloo that night LOL
Grew up around Wool, currently live in Hamworthy. My kinda train video 😂 The sidings in Wool use to be in constant use until about 7 or 8 years ago with sand being brought in by trucks from nearby quarries to go to Dorchester when Brewery square was being built utilising the sidings you see on approch, recall watching it through my nans window and then coming back in two stages with a light engine movement in-between. Also led to believe it took material towards Wembley at one point
Bournemouth was the station that made me realise I liked trains , every year onward from 2020 we do the Basingstoke - Bournemouth route , and up at Bournemouth trains use to separate , and I always begged my mum to watch it happen (spoiler : I never got to see it , I did see coupling though) early that doesn't happen for me anymore when we get that train , when I'm older I'm going to go find a couple of trains that split and watch it happen like I wanted when I was 10 (I'm 13 now)
Oh Nick such a nostalgic video. Glad it brought back good memories they will probably live in your memory for a long time. Enjoy the rest of your time in Bournemouth, and yes, don,t change into your speedo,s, not this time of year anyway.
Quite a sight to see you exploring a forest in a video but once a gain another laid back great video, genuinely love the vibe in your videos down south especially when it has no music because it just feels calming.
i love Bournemouth station its a lovely station & lots of eccos from the anouncements & im loving all the stations along this line & i like the SWR 444s they are great trains & def are very warm in the winter & are very cool in the warmer months & are better than the class 150s brilliant vlog
I think Moreton is where Top Gear filmed their caravan holiday disaster. I only know because they mention a train passing by and the pub holds the same name.
That door jamming thing happened to a friend's daughter, who couldn't get off at her stop so ended up going all the way to Bristol. That was an unexpected drive for him, going all the way up there to pick her up! Fun fact about Moreton: Lawrence of Arabia is buried in the church yard there. 🙂
Been to Bournemouth and it’s quite nice. And the Class 444 Desiro trains are also very nice. Never been to Moreton before and the train announcement does get very annoying at times.
Fun fact: The caravan site you mentioned, was the same caravan site that Top Gear visited, and they ended up burning down their caravan and someone else's caravan.
The map shows Hartland Moor National Nature Reserve and further connecting to others. Houlton Heath would be a great station for nature lovers , particularly tourists who wish to visit these natural areas for birding and botanizing.
I live in wareham and seeing the 444’s everyday and nothing else does get a bit boring… The doors frequently get stuck on the 444’s as well so not surprising it happened to you! Good video!
A few minutes walk up the hill from Moreton station you'll find Crossways. A really weird place, it's like a suburb of Dorchester but instead of putting it next to the bypass like a normal suburb they built it five miles away down a farm track.
Also odd to add 2 comments but i genuinely love the calm videos like this eith no background music and just shots of scenery and small touches that make the video nicer, amazing video nick
It Feels Weird Of You Visiting The Stations Near Weymouth (and Weymouth Itself) And Just Exploring What I Normally Pass Now And Then. Very Nice Video :)
ahh love seeing a hamworthy station mention, my old local 😭 to be honest glad you went through the tunnel to hamworthy and not turlin moor! fun fact, locals called the tunnel/underpass under the station the "mickey mouse tunnel" - i have no idea why - im not sure if many people on the moor or around still call it that but i do and older people i know who are also from there do - just a bit of vaguely interesting local lore from probably one of the worst places in poole... still love hamworthy station though
Looking forward to these videos as its the local line! Also if the door gets stuck, just give it a little nudge and it should open although they do have a tendency to start closing or get stuck again 😅
Holton Heath was built to serve a Royal Navy Cordire Depot in 1924. It's a legacy station that never closed. The wood is (forest) is the actual Holton Heath. The 442's used to have the delayed door issues too. Moreton is often used in TV drama as various locations. You're probably too young to remember class 33/73 towing 4-CEP's and 4-TC to Weymouth before the juice rail was extended.
Wow that part of Dorset hasn’t changed much since the early 90s (although back then it was Network SouthEast, prior the privatisation of BR, with the colourful NSE liveries) Ahh Weymouth beach…how many times have I been there out of season, taking “moody” photographs as part of my media courses at Weymouth College between 1992 and 95. There used to be a footbridge up the line from Weymouth station, where I’d happily while away time watching trains going to and from London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads
I know how you feel about Moreton. I have visited Moreton in the summer. been to the pub which is great. There is not much going in Moreton apart from a few villages.
Really surprised that you didn't get oof at Wareham instead of Pramworthy (as we used to call it on the railway). Nice little town with a lot of history & a river. I really can't understand this love for Disastros, I hate the bloody things. I'd rather drive a slam door than a Disastro. Pity that you couldn't experience the Class 33s & TCs, 400s and 442 Pigs that we used to run on that line. They blow Disastros away any day.
Love your videos, I know that line so well. Look forward to your next adventure. Could you please tell me how much your ticket was and what area it covers. Thank you.
I'm old enough to remember when Hamworthy was called Hamworthy Junction. Made it sound important. On the subject of Point to Point, Moreton to Cartsdyke would be a good one. Why? Well it's next to a football club called............
continue up the road from Holton Heath and you come to a parkdean holiday park where I'm going in a few weeks, just after I go to another one at Warmwell, for which I will use.....Moreton 🙂
Obvious choice for a "point to point"- Moreton (Dorset) to Moreton (Wirral). Also, I stayed on a nearby caravan site as a kid too, though I was already a fully fledged railnerd by then!
It's interesting seeing a Class 444 (which by the door positions and the length of the train I would take to be a long-distance express unit) on what appears to be a suburban branch line, rather than say a Class 450 or 455.
Whilst I do not mind the 444s, I do feel (and I speaking from having rode on them from Waterloo to Eastleigh and Southampton Central) that either they are starting to show their age with their rough ride on the SWML or they are just not suited to it
The train splits at Bournemouth, the back half terminates, and the front continues - I'd like to see what happened if that was reversed, the front stopped and the back continued! 🙂 - - -
The front would head in to the siding at Bournemouth, then the back will continue on down the line. Happens a few times, especially if the front half has a fault which means that it cannot proceed on its own
Wool the siding was for the sand trains - they would fill from the Quarry and take the sand up the line - not used anymore. just outside wool you pass the now defunct Atomic Energy site the home to numerous nuclear reactors. Holton Heath was fro the workers trains going tot he Admiralty Cordite Factory during the war, the site was used after that for Admitalty Research the land in the area is contaminated. The woodland is contaminated land.
Nick... Here's an idea for a video. From my comment earlier, I thought this video lacked structure so wasn't one of your best... but I thought it was wrong of me to 'criticise' without suggesting a genuine way you could remake the video. Fans of you, like myself, would like to know, I'm sure, about you and how it all began and your journey from holiday fascination with trains to your your tube channel. So how about remaking the video, starting off at the holiday camp and the train station and use clips of previous videos or even make new clips, to show your fans the 'journey' from little boy at a holiday camp to man with his own You Tube channel? I think you'd find it fun to make and your fans would find it interesting! Certainly more interesting than you just visiting a few random stations and walking about housing estates!!
Isn't Moreton pronounced like Morton? If you've stayed there twice, I assume you know about the somewhat distant Moreton Parish Church, with the engraved glass windows, and the connection with Lawrence of Arabia? If not, take a bike next time and go and have a look - the church window designs won't be what you're expecting!
Oh dear, a whole day in the worst sounding EMU in the world. The Desiro UK sounds like a police car on steroids. So glad German Desiro ML and HC have other frequency inverters.
You do realise that this video hes made is basically explaining when he realised he became a train enthusiast right..? Video doesn’t have to have structure or have to be better he’s just showing us how he first started off being a train enthusiast that’s a big deal for some going back to where they first started & how they got to be where they are today. So less of the negative Nancy mentality and appreciate what he’s showing you as it’s quite personal to him and he’s more than happy to share it with the rest of us which means lot so I thank for him for it even if you don’t.
@@LoneSheWolf09 I do. And the part where he was at the station where it all began was the only interesting bit. All the other stations were just Nick wandering about. No structure. Nick is a big fan, as I am, of Geoff Marshall...I wonder what Geoff would have made of this video. Geoff doesn't make videos where he just randomly wanders about! I like Nick. I'm one of his patreons. I enjoy his videos... Just that this one...was not up to his usual standard!
Looking forward to these videos as its the local line! Also if the door gets stuck, just give it a little nudge and it should open although they do have a tendency to start closing or get stuck again 😅

I've been on that track when we came back from Guernsey many year's ago
Point to point to point, Moreton to Moreton in the marsh to Moreton (Merseyside)
Yes Moreton Merseyside is where I live so that would be an excellent video!
When the Bletchley to Oxford bit of East West Rail opens, Wilmslow to Winslow needs to happen.
Could you do Point to point to point to point? Moreton to Moreton in the Marsh to Moreton on Lugg to Moreton (Merseyside)?

Also led to believe it took material towards Wembley at one point
If you spend any longer in Bournemouth, people will start to think you study at Bournemouth University: Gateway To Your Future.
Moreton-in-Marsh is a more interesting station name and is actually the location I stayed in back in November, whilst exploring the Cotswolds
It's a beautiful place to end up in. And a great route you have took to Weymouth
The siding at Wool was used to load sand for transportation to the building works for the London Olympics.
Also military vehicles for Wool camp.

Am I right in thinking that the caravan park and pub are the location of the Top Gear caravan holiday episode?
I am thinking along those lines a well.
(most memorable bit is when Hammond gets dragged into the Caravan, by an Elderly Woman 😀😀😀😀)
yes it is, they complain about the noise of the trains going past as they were next to the train line
i love Bournemouth station its a lovely station & lots of eccos from the anouncements & im loving all the stations along this line & i like the SWR 444s they are great trains & def are very warm in the winter & are very cool in the warmer months & are better than the class 150s brilliant vlog
I've been camping to Weymouth many a time in the past. It's a nice place. It's where they had the sailing in the Olympics in 2012. Nice video Nick.

Nice video. I quite like the south you could also explore the Chiltern mainline from Wembley stadium-Denham golf club
I've seen that station on train maps is it actually a Golf Club?
I've been in Denham before and there is a golf club and that station also has a permit to travel machine as well.

Dorchester South to Dorchester West but you're not allowed to touch the Weymouth-Dorchester line... is it time for another pointless journey?! 🤣
Wow that part of Dorset hasn’t changed much since the early 90s (although back then it was Network SouthEast, prior the privatisation of BR, with the colourful NSE liveries)

Nick "old sign" Me - Network South East - I can remember when they were being put up

Great video nick! Very entertaining and interesting as always!
Great video nick looks an great part of the country
love nick bradley, nice thing to watch when ur mental health is lower than brighton
Who's Nick Bradley?
Class 444's to me are a Nostalgia 😭😭.
Holton Heath station was originally built during WW1 to service a Cordite factory.
UNLISTED GANG, this is such an awesome video, i love how calm it is :3
Have you done a point to point from
Morton to Morton? If not, are you considering it for a future video?
Ooh Moreton! Because of the tones
Ha yes yes
Visit Hamworthy! “Definitely a place, that’s for sure!”
Whilst I do not mind the 444s, I do feel (and I speaking from having rode on them from Waterloo to Eastleigh and Southampton Central) that either they are starting to show their age with their rough ride on the SWML or they are just not suited to it
The train splits at Bournemouth, the back half terminates, and the front continues - I'd like to see what happened if that was reversed, the front stopped and the back continued! 🙂 - - -
The front would head in to the siding at Bournemouth, then the back will continue on down the line. Happens a few times, especially if the front half has a fault which means that it cannot proceed on its own
2:38 that face😂😂😂
Wool the siding was for the sand trains - they would fill from the Quarry and take the sand up the line - not used anymore. just outside wool you pass the now defunct Atomic Energy site the home to numerous nuclear reactors. Holton Heath was fro the workers trains going tot he Admiralty Cordite Factory during the war, the site was used after that for Admitalty Research the land in the area is contaminated. The woodland is contaminated land.
The doors on the 444 are getting worse. Apparently First Group don't pay for as much maintenance as Stagecoach did.
the swr mainline is so lovely isn't it
I prefer the term rail enthusiast and when you was in the woods you came across a little bit city slicker
Lol 0:54 I am stood next to a speaker
when i saw the thumbnail, i was like, why is there SWR on the merseyrail network?
The station that made me a railway enthusiast? St James Park Holt, Exeter.
Moreton to Moreton in Marsh a good future Journey.
Don't do moreton to moreton (mersey)... That would be a hell of a journey 🤣
In that forrest, could have shouted "Mortal Kombat", looked erie! :)
I love your channel
Go in the forest! Do it! Touch the moss!
Moreton is decent, I remember the level crossing from the first time I went there as a young kid
Yay my county Dorset
So cute!

Some of those stations you have visited including Moreton are actually in The New Forest. I have been to Bournemouth once.
