Absolutely superb!

Brought back happy memories of some of my stomping grounds, we used to do a lot of ferreting around the tracks and I don't think it bothered anyone as it stopped the rabbits from causing erosion as we never got chased off

A lovely video, Ken, thank you. Parts of it remind me of the legendary O. Winston Link's photos of trains in the landscape. Good to see 66s working hard up the grades, although I kept hoping for the sight and sounds of a pair of 37s!

Hi Ken, great video, plenty of detail. We stayed in Carlin how for 5 nights. I walked dog all over Carlin how and down Skinningrove and behind the steel works cliff top, I regret not going that bit further on past it( but the wind was chuffin strong on those days🤣)I didn't realise the railway goes so close to the cliff corner and foot path. Cheers Grant.

Fantastic film, I am building a model of the Saltburn Station and to see the surrounding area on film is brilliant.

Just found this.I think it's a really nice bit of filming...Looks a nice area... England at it's best...thank you for uploading this.

What the maps don't show is that at viewing point 1 there used to be, until the closure of Saltburn box, 4 tracks. A round the top of Huntcliff there were 2 tracks. The cliff railway was the third method getting from the new town to the pier. It replaced a vertical lift, which replaced walking down. The cliff railway is on a 71% gradient. There was a railway on the breakwater at Skinningrove for the loading and unloading of ships. The line beyond Carlin Howe was originally carried on an embankment, but with the closure of the line beyond the steel works the opportunity came to remove a bottle neck on the road and almost the entire embankment was removed and the road straightened. This meant that when the potash mine was opened the new bridge had to be put in place (the North Yorkshire Moors National Park saw to it that very few lorries ever went to the mine). The old road remains as a lay-by under the bridge.
