    Great video, really enjoyed it. I will most definatly be making a trip to the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway soon, as it is an amazing railway. I think an other episode of this is in order where you could possibly focus on the small heritage lines perhaps? Anyway, good video and i will tune in for more. All the best

    • @trainsonthebrain
      @trainsonthebrain  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks very much Transport Gamer! That’s a great idea for a follow up - lots of smaller heritage lines are well worth a visit in their own right. Thinking about the likes of the Foxfield and Middleton Railways too which have a real industrial focus. Thanks for tuning in, take care and all the best 👊

      @@D.Salter That’s not a bad start off of one video, your spelling/grammar is very good and I think if you keep active in the community then you can keep growing as you start putting more content out! Tip from me that helped early on - when commenting on videos, comment on something specific, I.e their camerawork, a particular train/item that featured, etc. Sometimes people say ‘great video’ and they may not have watched it - but by mentioning something specific, even if it’s the number of subs as you’ve mentioned here, show’s you’re keen and at tentative and creators like that 👍 Also if someone doesn’t sub back straight away, don’t be disheartened - keep watching (and learning!) about their stuff and build the relationship over time. Never take a single subscription for granted. I’ve subbed to help you on your journey - stick with it and go well!!

      @trainsonthebrain  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hope you’re well Jeff 👍 I don’t know about the narrow gauge lines but I think most of the standard gauge lines have more disability provisions now - The North Norfolk Railway for instance just recently got provided with some new ramps for customers and I think other railways have had similar upgrades - best bet is to get in touch with them beforehand to double check, I’m sure if they know you are coming they will do all they can to make it work for you and to make you feel welcome sir 🙏
