What used to be the diesel depot for the maintenance of the locomotives during the 80s 90s is now used for wagon maintenance and you will notice that most of the overhead catenary has been removed just leaving the masts behind

Never new it existed. Quality

A different perspective from normal for me, I drive trains in and out of Whatley.

Nice capture. Its all well hidden amongst the trees. No chance of seeing owt without a drone.

Very nice

701.025 has gone down to Eastleigh

I was at a residential school not far from there forty years ago. I'll look at the site of Merehead on Google maps later tonight......

Just a shame you didn’t get more footage quarry end. Definitely looks a bit different from the air than on the ground.

the open day there many many years ago was awsome !!!

I did some work in this yard installing some track and points. I can see my work in this video

Only if this was taken in 1999

It's a storage depot... Porterbrook Rail own the site and it has around 12 miles of track.

Nice. I always enjoy your vids.

Nice video

Done my apprenticeship there .Starting in 1981 and left in 1987.......wonderful times😊

Are these trains te be scraped?

Is that a T69 remaining?

I saw these two at Melton Mowbray on the 28th of December 2023, got a super loud 2 tone.

Super video, surprised your allowed to fly in that area due to the close proximity of the prison. Well done, glad you enjoyed the ride. 🤓

Which company owns these 69's?

Imassu they will go to Eastleigh to be painted?

Fantastic..just about to start an N scale TMD..loads of grt info....cheers.

Great footage. Out of interest what drone model do you use?

And the worst driver is ?

I work here now. Ten years on the Railway, five of them at Longsight. Interesting aspect. I was showing this to my child who had just asked "dad, where do you work?" Might I suggest Crewe Electric Depot (opposite side of the Chester line to the Old Main Works, now Bombardier) for more variety? Thanks!

Great video. Like me

Glad to see another upload

Living in this quiet railway town from 68 to 73 as a teenager I spent a lot of time hanging around the shed and the locos. Was there at the demise of the BR shed and the early days of Steamtown. Did enquire with West Coast Railways. Someone online had mentioned an earlier open day but the response from WCR was they had no knowledge of it :-(

Not a patch on the old lay out, sad to say - but then the world has changed, and March with it. Nice view though 👍

Not very glamorous, but a much better use of money than HS2!

Great video I spent 35 years trying to see the trains from public footpaths here in all weathers, managed to see all the Class 700 units though....

Only one building left of 31B, Possibly because it contains some bats, Only one Whitemoor building left which is the old watertower

Great Video

Hi from România ❤️My son is there ✌️

What is the red 31 I see there? Also is that privately owned or can that be operated for railtours?

My wife and myself went on the route from York to Carlisle, the journey was amazing rolling by the Yorkshire dales and country side with its green rolling hill dotted with sheep ,we traveled Frist class the carriage set out from 50/60s its was a full day getting back in to york 22:00 hrs a great day 🇬🇧

Got yunlucky there in the shed behind cb1000 was 89 001 in the shed.

do you have the date you filmed this as i need 266107 if its still out side thanks

Hey, is the 93 due to be doing any testing on the WCML anytime soon ? I'd love to catch this for my electric traction RUclips channel..

its a shame GWRs 769s never made it past the teething Problems, would of been great to see them running, ah well, wont be long till they become rasers XD

Good to see… shame about the 60s

been in and out of there a few times delivering much to the dismay of spotters at the gate lol

Cool vid, crap 'musak.' Had to watch with the sound turned off.

Top video. Shame the likes of Tinsley, Immingham, Eastfield, Stratford are no longer with us. Would have been great to have had drone footage of those.

does 081 still run? it looks in quite good condition

Excellent video!

Big TMD. If you’re doing requests could you do Northampton ?

i can't believe they are scraping the 91's 😔 being shunted by a class 37 which dates back to 1960's 60 + years

great video

Apparently one of those cross country voyagers is so broken that its limited to what 14 mph! Edit: have you also heard of the wabtec shunter works not too far away from there?
