Thank you for joining me on this walk to find Brindley Heath Station. I do have some other Disused Stations videos which you can take a look Manchester Mayfield:th-cam.com/video/GE5E4tZSv6k/w-d-xo.html Derby Friargate: th-cam.com/video/oQhjRVhZWxk/w-d-xo.html
This was an amazing walking journey. What a shame of Bringley Heath only having a very short life on the Chase Line but the remains are still there which looks incredible to see.
impressed, ive always regarded myself as knowledgeable about chase history(mines and railways) but to be honest id not heard about brindley heath station , tho id long suspected there was one, tho i more expected it too have used the old trackbed of the taceroo line, very interesting, thanks for sharing... regards, jenny ps... if you fancy doing the south staffs line stations (fossway crossing, hammerwich b'hills, norton junction, pelsall drop me a pm
I be honest, I never heard about the Tackerloo Line till last week when someone tweeted me, truthfully the Hammerwich is a area I am interested in, I might be interested in doing but think it be done after covid disappears, these kind of videos are currently 'fill ins' while we in lockdown but there some days that I might visit a disused station or Railway
@@Sim0nTrains not many have heard of it to be fair, it was never a rail company line it was a private line built i belive to get spplies and workers to the chase camps (pre ww1)from what i can gather it utilised a spur coming of the back of west cannock number 5 pit, i do have some old photos somehere of a service made up of old 6 wheel wooden bodied coach stock hauled by the ex somewhere down south loco cannock wood, known localy as the tackeroo express, think john bull had some info on it might be worth hitting chasewaters archives
Was Cannock Chase a former royal forest. And is it still a forest or just a nature heritage site and woodland. As it’s known for Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). I still think that is should of been a forest. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannock_Chase

Thank you 🙏 there still a better disused station between Cannock and Landywood
Is there any other disused stations in the area I know there is one at armitage and also colwich. Great video as well
🤫 you lol! But there is a future video walk to another disused station. Thanks 🙏
Great walk, and a lovely bonus. Hoping to visit Rugeley Trent Valley next year, as looks a good spot for filming different trains
It is indeed, thank you for watching.
Interesting Video Sim0n! as well as the name for the bus station
Not Carrot Bus Station lol but Thank you for watching :D

I have driven up and down that A460 countless times and noticed the line.
I do understand that, I can see it from the bus or replacement bus sometimes, thanks for your comment 🙏
