- It's 26th July, and as we roam around wonderful Yorkshire, we discover a new children's TV programme, chat to the Virgin trains designer, forget to look at something important in Scarborough, get a little bit rained on, and oh - knock out seven very awkward stations!
All The Stations merchandise is available at our online shop, here: allthestations.co.uk/shop/
Geoff and Vicki are visiting ALL 2,563 national railway stations in Britain - view the progress map and loads more information about the project on the website at: allthestations.co.uk/
ROUTE: Knaresborough - York - Scarborough - Bridlington - Hull - Goole - Leeds
Four of the seven awkward stations are Rawcliffe, Snaith, Hensall and Whitley Bridge) which only gets 3 trains a day, one w/b in the morning, and then one e/b in the evening and the return (which we caught) w/b in the evening.

"Britain runs on tea" ... "I thought it was gin...!" Brilliant Vicki!!!! 😃
I run on gin
Sometimes we all a little bit Vicki 🤣
I died at "I love Costa, Costa's my favourite" *drinks from Starbucks cup.
Constantin S. Purcea where in the video
@@SteveFTW5 @3:30 in the video
365 rooms to represent the days of the year.
I'm watching this on 29 February!
It's not long till we get another of those
I can't believe that Vicki didn't mention the most pertinent fact about the Grand Hotel - that when viewed from above it's shaped like a "V" for Victoria! :)
I really wonder why many people rated it so low
It is really impressive seeing both of them still this excited so late in the journey!
My mother met my Dad at a dance in the Grand Hotel during WW2, she was a projectionist in the local cinema and he was at a nearby training camp... I had no idea about its architecture!
A fact about Seamer station. It's not actually in Seamer village which is about 2 miles away.
5:04 this guys passion for his job is just 🙏🏾
Time flies by when you're the driver of a train, speeding out of Trumpton with a cargo of cocaine. I get high when I'm the pilot of a plane, touching down at camberwick, I'm stoned out of my brain.
Careful with that spliff Eugene, it causes condensation.
Every Saturday I get the Chigley skins
And they always smash my windows ‘cos the home side always wins
If you're gonna quote the ever-excellent Half Man Half Biscuit at least give 'em reference
In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, we have two funiculars, only we call them inclines: the Duquesne Incline and the Monongahela Incline. Years ago, there were many more.
Another great video, Geoff and Vicki! York is my favorite city! Always spend at least a few days every time I visit the UK (with obligatory trip to NRM). Agree with Geoff re Costa. No cafes near me in New York (lots of Pret’s, ‘tho), but I can get the beans!
Woke up at 4am... Turned on Radio, and there was Geoff and Vicki being interviewed on the World Service.... World Fame awaits
Do you know where I could find this interview?
www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p059s1pg#play at 28:59
Ahhh The team got in there first. I just prepared the link but don't need it again... You have to live in the UK to listen to it, I think. If you don't there may be another way of getting it because its the world service.
You don't have to be in the UK! I'm in California at the moment and getting it! THANKS for link!
I'm from the Netherlands, and I can listen to It too (2020)
Poppleton was the site of a 'railway nursery', which provided all the flowers for railway station gardens and restaurant car table ornaments. Part of the nursery still exists, with a short narrow gauge railway (made 'infamous' by the Narrow Gauge Railway Modelling Forum's photo quiz where anyone who doesn't know the answer just says "Poppleton Nurseries"!)
When you were travelling on the Scarborough to Hull Line, I was on holiday in bridlington, and alas, it was rainy.
Life for us in the north :/ the rain reflects my everyday mood
11:45 Bridlington beach (either one; personally I'm more familiar with the south beach) is worth a visit, as is the harbour. I have many happy memories there. If you didn't go whilst you were there, I recommend it if you ever make a return visit to the East Yorkshire coast.
It's been claimed that Camberwick Green, Trumpton and Chigley were inspired by the villages of Wivlesfield Green, Plumpton and Chailey in West Sussex. (Railway stations at Plumpton and Wivlesfield of course)
I can't believe that they got a shot of a shorter bench at Scarborough!!
Also, at 14:19, it looks like Vicki fell into the gap...
lmao I was thinking that as I just watched it 😂
You should release all these videos on a Blu-ray set when your trip is over. Wonderful stuff 😀📷🏞
Ahh no Knottingley to Wakefield or leeds line... boo. I know they aint exciting in the slightest, was just looking forward to spotting my stations. Looks like you have been having a great time. The Festiniog narrow gauge steam line was epic.
Knaresborough, where I spent the first 5 years of my life. Beautiful town. Bonus fact: The picture framing shop on the platform is owned by my uncle's best friend from school!
You also missed an opportunity for (the ruins of) a castle in Knaresborough, with a fantastic view of the viaduct!
I'm 20 and I LOVE Trumpton ☺️
i love scarborough. I remember the tram in scarborough was 20p when I went in the 90s with my parents, for kids and 50p for adults. I was in Scarborough in 2021 and we could see the castle from the hotel bedroom we were staying in
Guy Fawkes shacked up at Scotton just outside Knaresborough before his demise. Glad you have a shot of Knaresborough black and white buildings at the start. No one knows why some are painted that way!
I remember Chigley! Thank you TH-cam for letting me watch that brilliant old show. Talking of things that are off the quaint scale.
Another great report. Worth every cent, OOPS, penny of my donation.
The Fonuncular! 8:48
I'm going to call them Fonuncular Railways from now on.
Anthony Houghton - it's definitely a fonuncular from now on!
Is the Forn-icular the rail equivalent of the Mile High Club?
*Funicular
Zaman Siddiqui That's not what she said.
#AllTheFonunculars
The blue Costa Coffee reminds me of the brown McDonalds sign in Freiburg City Centre, Germany. It's brown to fit in with the historic half timbered buildings.
some years back they put a 'Mc Donald's' snack bar inside Goodison Park home of Everton Football club but due to local rivalry with neighbours Liverpool F.C. who play in red they had to signage it in blue not traditional MAC red. true!
thats incredible...I never knew that about the Grand Hotel....its just like an the old 78rpm record I've got in my collection..." Deck of Cards " recorded back in 1959..narrating.how a pack of cards works out the same way....amazing man..!!!.
Wow, England is so close to completion (I know you already did it on social media) I'm excited for the end but then I don't want it to end.
Aww made me miss York, where I lived before I moved to Ireland.
"...I thought it was gin!" Good for you, Vicki!
scarborough is great when its not raining! a fine town. Better than the Lancashire resorts like Blackpool.
The grand hotel in Scarborough is an example of a 'calendar house' - as Vicky explained
Argh I've been waiting for you to get to Knaresborough for so long! So nice to see my hometown with you guys whilst watching from Denver! I was shocked that you didn't film the castle though-I felt sure you would be all about the history there! Also can't believe you didn't get an ice cream in The Harbour Bar in Scarborough...
I remember drinking coffee on the balcony of the Grand Hotel a few years back. It was drier and brighter than in this video, but it was extremely windy.
That guard is a legend :-)
Nice. Being I am from Scarborough (Ontario Canada). :)
I love all the station and tea watched this whilst building my giant lego routemaster
Excellent!
That guard at the end though 😍😍😍😍
Oh man, can't get enough of that Malton food. Can't wait to get back and purchase some food.
Really enjoy the videos, was at York station the same time as the video
bridlington is my home station and we all love it
I love how Sam is so passionate about what matters nought to the engineers who actually designed the train platform he's talking about.
Yawn... Can't believe I wasted 3 minutes of my life listening to Sam.
knaresborough is one of my favourite stations. Very quaint
Go back to Scarborough in the summer and visit the park. Viki would love it, its very quaint. You can feed the pigions and squirrels from your hand.
I'm so sad I missed you at york !!
Britain Runs on Rails, Fuelled by Tea
Or gin, depending on the time of day/personal preference. :)
Trumpton, Chigley and Camberwick Green was great to watch.
If Geoff is sad about missing the funicular, he should come back to Bournemouth - we've got the shortest one in the world!
Hinckley has a picture framing shop in the station!!
Whitby did too, but it got turned into a MicroPub recently :)
A pub is better than a picture shop.
A pub makes a better facility for passengers, but if there is enough room, maybe they could have both.
As a picture framer I wish our framing shop was on a station platform 🙁 that would be much more fun. And I'm old enough to have enjoyed Camberwick Green and Trumpton. We used to listen to them on LP's!
Classic Scarborough in the summer
90p! I remember when it was 10p! #old
I also used to work at the Grand Hotel but got fired for some long forgotten reason. Sadly the inside has not been cared for in the way you'd hope by a succession of terrible owners. The bottom 4 floors are basically flooded and water damaged.
Glad Geoff got to visit the castle. I grew up 10 mins away and it was all my childhood playground.
Certainly a case of riches to rags, inside is actually ordinary in no way special except in parts eg the Dining Room view. Now an 'economy' type hotel.
Tony Skinner Owned by the vile Britannia group. Their hotels around Manchester are appalling.
The rooms in the turrets of the hotel are nice at least.
Mark - I remember it being 14p for adults and 9p for kids - 1988. I've still got the tickets in a tupperware box at mum's house!
Hey, and there's those 'teeth' stickers on the door as talked about on a much earlier episode!
@AllTheStaitions I go to Scarborough quite a lot to see my granny and we go to the Royal Hotel and the castle and they are both amazing the painting of constructing the hotel in the rooms and the castle has quite a few big walls as the castle has been falling down.
Was I the only one who noticed this? 'I love Costa Coffee!' *drinks Starbucks coffee*
The irony's in the Gag
Peter Bartlett Yeah, I know. :D.
Whacking Badge I totally noticed the greeniee Starbucks logo too..
This is yet another little twiggler in this video...but it does seem "All the stations" is powered by Costa ..chuckle.
Beaker998 Gaming People may have. However, at the time I posted this comment nobody had said anything about it.
Sigh ...
Knaresborough very quaint. Must visit one day.
Quaintness overload!
I live near malton station It’s very windy and rainy but when it’s warm and the suns out it is a very good area also the food festival is amazing
wow saw on your website your in Scotland already! tips
1.recommended getting out at Stirling and Wemyss bay because they have stunning ticket offices
2. at stranraer there is a wonderful cafe called the fig & olive a short walk up the road from the station
3. springfield has a low platform were the building is and then raises to a high platform
4. dundee has a fantastic waterfront for Vicki to explore
5. perth and dunkeld have stunning cathedrals and st.johns kirk in perth to explore
would have loved to have meet you in perth son is a huge fan -a.douglas
There's actually two cliff railways in Scarborough, the other one being at the Pavilion at South Bay. But there were once four! There was one the other side of the Grand that was mostly in position but unoperational in 2012 (the last time I went to Scarborough), whilst the other was at North Bay.
There was a fifth one - it ran from Queen's Parade down to the pier in the North Bay. Absolutely no evidence of it now - it closed in 1887 after a landslip :)
Saltburn has a picture framing shop on its platform.
Seen your tweets! Good luck with your day!
Poppleton even has a village green and a maypole !!!
Title should be changed to "It's not cool, Marshall"
They did
Was the title originally "We are Ruth less"?
Shaun House When I hear the name Ruth, I think of one of the main characters in the movie Threads, one of the greatest feel-good movies of the 1980s.
@@tomsmith5584 ROFL "feel-good"! XD
She can't chat, she went on the funicular (or the fonuncular as she calls it) without him too
We've stayed in the grand hotel about 7000000 times growing up and we were surprised to find a photo of a relative who played cricket for England in one of the stairwells
Geoff if you look at the old tile NER maps that are on the wall of the NRM ,Scarborough ,Filey Bridlington & Beverley there is a railway shown but never built from Beverley via Tickton ,Leven ,Brandesburton and terminates at North Frodingham ! I know you like this type of fact ! I think it was to be called the North Holderness railway ?
There's also an NER map on a wall at York station, or at least there was. Had all the railways around Eston and Guisboro which ended up only being half built.
I saw you on itv meridian yesterday!
Poppleton should certainly be on Trumptonshire
When I last went to Scarborough, it still had a blue Police Box. :)
Mortimer50145 Oh. Okay. :S
Next time you visit Scarborough you must have fish and chips in Whackers! There the best in Yorkshire! 😋😋😋😋😋
Hugh, Pugh, Barney, McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, Grub. or something like that. I remember.
"I love costa, Costas my favourite" and goes and drinks from a Starbucks cup!!!!!!!!
The class 91 will be missed :c The azuma train looks much narrower and yeah
I stayed in the Grand hotel once, lovely on the outside but lots of things went wrong. Bit of a shame.
Of course Malton is known for good food my aunte from there taught me how to make Yorkshires.
I dunno! You go to York, you show the excellent York Tap, with it's real ale and excellent pork pies and you go and have a tea?
All The Seagulls - all of them!
I wish they put as much work into the Southern livery as they do into Virgin Train's. It really tells you something about the franchise when the word 'First Class' is larger than the word 'Southern'
I've trainspotted in Scarborough
Another difference about your two times at hensall, you were on a Pacer in the least Used Station vid.
There also a miniture railway at scarborough and land trains at brid
I live in scarborough and i love 2 c tje scarborough spa express
This was my local one - Driffield
Seamer Station is not at Seamer, it is at Crossgates, but there is already a crossgates station near Leeds so it was called the next village along Seamer
Vicki is right Britain should run on Gin 😁😁😁😁
Down the hill from the Castle is a Church. Across a walk path is the new graveyard . . . where there is a famous Writer buried. Agreed, they recently replaced the headstone. And the edges are already wearing away! (Hint: she died in 1849).
Interesting point of trivia - for a while, Malton was the only station that was in a different county to the town it served.
stevieinselby Yes, Malton is actually in Norton, and to correct Vicky - Seamer is acutually in Crossgates.
I believe the former was at one time (like many of the local organisations) called Malton and Norton. As for the latter, they called it Seamer because there was already a Cross Gates at the Leeds end of the line.
Sorry if already mentioned....The Costa coffee shop on York station is in the former York station signal box!
Geoff mentions this IN the video, yes.
I saw you at Knasebrough!
hey Joel! yes you did!!
@@AllTheStations shocking
Oh yeah, I remember Trumpton.
1:40 Geoff and Vicki, the exit's that way.
Bridlington station really grinds my gears. The platforms are 4, 5 & 6, and there is no platform 3, 2 or 1. Bridlington, please renumber your platforms.
Its a thing that's always been going on - I think the locals are used to the confusion but I get 4 and 6 confused.
Probably know this all ready, but there used to be platform 1,2, 3, 7 and 8. Some of the platforms are longer than usual to accommodate the long special holiday trains that used to come to Bridlington, 7 and 8 were especially long. The concourse is so wide so it could accomodate the huge number of people getting off the holiday trains.
Shrewsbury has 5 platforms numbered 3-7. Platforms 1 and 2 are no longer in use.
Stockport has a platform 0 (zero)...
Odd fact from 2020, the bus at 9:20 belongs to the company I now work for in Clacton running summer open top services
What Vicky failed to mention about the Grand in Scarborough is that it was the largest hotel in Europe.
3:20 ahh the sound of the class 91....
My local Scarborough station. For those who don't know, Scarborough also used to have a branch line which used to run to Whitby via Scalby and Robin Hoods Bay ☺
The Whitby to Scarborough railway (closed by Guess Who) has now been converted to a cycle track called the Cinder Track. We cycled from Ravenscar to Whitby and back, and it was a tough climb for the last mile back to the car. At least, it was for me; my wife has a Cheat Bike (an electric bike) so she found it easy.
I can remember when I was little playing in the stream at Sandsend (just north of Whitby) and jumping off one of the foundation supports of the old viaduct into the water.
The highlight of the Cinder Track is the magnificent view of Whitby Abbey from Larpool Viaduct, especially if there's a steam train from Pickering going under the viaduct on the Grosmont-Whitby line.
Scarborough has the longest bench in europe i thin
Geoff went to the Castle without Vickie? sure that is a crime against Vickmanity, really enjoyed it, sadly my first experience of Scarborough was dull as well, but unlike All the Stations, I travelled there and back by a steam locomotive, West Coast Railway Company do a 'Scarborough Spa Express' was suppose to be in the summer but due to the warm summers ended up doing it half term October and cost around £30 from York to Scarborough by steam
