- The forgotten Bishops castle Branch Line in Shropshire 2021
Today's Video with yours truly "Thomas Edward" We look at history of little branch line in Shropshire countryside what's been shut longer than it's actually been open for 1865 to 1935.
We look at each station in detail and as well as soak up the lost atmosphere there still so much to see and lot of original features have been saved throughout the years.

Excellent video. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’m Ken Lucas’s grandson and he would very much approve. ( he sadly passed away in 2011 ) but was totally obsessed with the bishops castle railway. And was one of the founding members of the bishops castle railway society in the late 80s. He also got to ride on the line many times before it was closed down. And his grandfather worked on the construction of it! Best regards!
Another, top video. I might just have a look myself. I read a book on this line with some amazing photos. Enjoy your style of presentation Thomas , all the best, Darren.
Awesome, thank you so much for your kind words Darren means alot to me.
Yeah the line for been shut longer than it was opener for it's amazing how Shropshire landscape has kept intact and there's no big fancy money houses ruining the old stations what's a plus.

Just tiny bit north of Craven Arms but real hidden gem and something highly go look at Neil 😊
Good stuff again! 1 year to build a 9 mile line would take 10 years today!
I know right imagine the health and safety meetings they'd have now just the get the job done?

The Bishops Castle Railway Societys website is very interesting. The Weighbridge building used to be so overgrown. They have done tremendous work to restore it as you see now.
Oh yeah! Unfortunately the week I was filming the weekend I went home they had open day what I would of loved to gone to. Amazing all them years shut and still great appreciate for it within the local folk.
Cracking vid, cracking place shropshire. Did you go over the level crossing at omnibury, on the A49? Guy who has the station house has got some restored trucks & buses, you can see them as you go over it.
Got a track day at the end of the month so expect a vid or 2 lol.
Hey, 👋
Yes when we filmed this we were on my birthday holiday in Shropshire and everyday we drove past omnibury and on last day we
Is that music out of mine craft it sounds familiar
Witch one?
Tbh never played mine craft so I wouldn’t know anyway. I’ve only ever played car games
Top stuff as always. You wont be surprised to hear the publisher of the lost railways book also does ones on airfields and I've found them helpful in looking for disused bases. I see you did get some aviation in when you were outside the church! The inside of that church looks very much like ours.
I need have get that book with lost airfields I'd love to present one to you guys on here and learn because like there stacks of aeroplane wrecks up here we could achieve on film.
Bung it on the future videos list. It’s cool to look for disused airfields on maps. Even if there’s no runways you can make out the perimeter track or loops and hard standings. Like old railway buildings you see them repurposed for other things.
It never paid a dividend to its shareholders during its entire existence.
are there any forgotten railways of the war? that would be interesting...
There's plenty underground bunkers with lines in from what I've seen online.
