Hope Valley Railway Upgrade: First track installed at Bamford
And again the same clumsy, ugly and obtrusive mast system as on the GWML. It wouldn't have to be like that. You could ask yourselves why 'they' don't learn?
Have you got any time lapse of bridge replacements?
So where is it? Is that a secret?… knowledge is power… don’t tell anyone…
the Romans built that bridge
And the railway underneath too?
Are the Coal Lines going to be wired up as well?
I agree with you as to the shape and design but the MR did not envisage electrification arriving for many decades. Now it has, if only in rather piecemeal stages, I gather.
😢
After a bit of searching it seem to be the bridge at roughly 52.463927,-0.887338 , and it really wasnt a loss in terms of conectivity since just 1 field further there is an underpass aswell as several other crossings , still very intersting to see such a bridge removal project sped up :)
To be replaced with a concrete toilet.
I thought they'd abandoned the Midland Mainline electrification project north of Kettering, once the branch to Corby had been completed. Is it continuing to Leicester, Nottingham, Derby and Sheffield or is this old footage?
Description says Kettering to Wigston
it’s definitely going to be the full Midland Mainline. Sheffield and Notts to St Pancreas. About a month ago contractors were doing a night time survey in the Beeston area.
@@rockerjim8045 it'll be interesting to see what they do on the apporoach to leicester station as that'll pose a legistical nightmare
@@beardedmonkey1320I wonder if they’ll electrify the rest of the MML to Nottingham/Sheffield then try to make Leicester work. Is a low bridge the problem?
@@alexpeak16 its not just a low bridge its also the concorse, bridge to platforms and main road, the only possible method is lowering the tracks but that would mean either lowering the platforms or moving the platforms to compensate for the tracks being lowered, im not an engineer but there isnt much spacebetween the roof of the trains and the bridge.
Absolute vandalism ...the track could have been lowered....don't raise the bridge lower the river..as they used to say to point out the obvious.
Apparently the bridge was no longer in use. (see comments above). There are plenty of other examples of this type of bridge.
at a significantly higher cost, and who do you think would have to pay for that, bridge removal tens of thousands, lowering the tracks hundreds of thousands if not millions!
What went over the bridge and how does it cross the railway now? Very interesting though.
An unsurfaced farm track, which was not marked as a public footpath on OS maps. It gave access to a field on the north side of the railway which is now a massive National Grid substation, and it had a new road access built.
@@Paul_707Can you say where it is, Paul? If this is recent footage are they continuing to electrify towards Leicester?
@@Paul_707 Thanks.
@@johnm2012Kettering - Wigston is the current section which is going to be energized on July 28th according to Network Rail.

What a lovely bridge... shame it had to go ... bet it must have been at least 2x as old as of the demo team
Where was the bridge located.
Is a replacement planned, or did the bridge carry a highway for which an alternative route is available?
usually if a route is removed they have to reinstate it within a certain time frame
Very impressive. Nice work by the team.
Clearly this nice looking bridge was not worth applying the Bill Harvey ‘lifting’ technique of cutting the piers, raising the arches and inserting extra brickwork to provide enough clearance for the overhead wires.
Bit Sad to lose a nice bridge, would have taken a lot longer to put up than it was to take down.
Typical Midland Main line overbridge. Elegant and sturdy. But electrification will improve services on this important route!
Usually most things are easier and quicker to destroy than build.
Interesting video….👍
The sad thing is that all this work was done to partly allow additional passenger services to run between Manchester and Sheffield but there are no plans to introduce any! Capacity constraints at Stockport and Sheffield make that impossible at the moment. It will, of course, make services more reliable and reduce the delays caused by passenger trains being stuck behind slower freights but it’s a shame the full benefits will not be realised.
IF the Sheffield-Stocksbridge gets passenger service that could take a couple of TpH? Manchester can be reached via Stockport(Hazel Grove) Or the Reddish North or Hyde Routes. (Sending more from Stockport out Reddish South wont be useful as they have to cross the southbounds out of Picc, so not helpful there ? - the world doesnt have to end at Man Picc really.
Although at the junction the line to Sheffield is doubled , the chord to the south has been left single still, why?
Where is Hope Valley? Bill from California
Broadly between Greater Manchester and Sheffield \m/
Look up 'Dore Sheffield' on Google Earth /Maps. If you do 'Hope Valley' it will take you to the centre of the valley. Dore is where the junction is.
@@officialmcdeath Thank you.
South cord single ,l assume, because of the low number of trains which use it.
Why am I hearing Coldplay in this 😅. Not complaining, and good work too.
Great to hear about rail improvements, but too short.
ok, this is epic

Can anybody provide background on what's happening here? Some sort if erosion control?

Great job, but I can't help thinking how little more it would have cost to have them add a pedestrian lane to the bridge.
The pedestrian bridge is on the right, just out of sight
COOL

So now 5 Years old it is still an amazing video. But i'm wondering too that they don't replace the old piers.
Truely wonderful dear
They are stone and didn't need replacing
next time bring a bridge large enough to lift the bridge out of position and ferry it away :0 ahhaha
If the bridge is 140 yrs. old, then so to are the piers. They must be sound, yet no mention of them.
No, the piers are significantly older. The bridge they are removing is not the original span. The piers are stone and didn't need replacing
