Великобритания
Добавлен 14 мар 2016
After running #PurpleVision for over a year now. Its seems my passion for the railways deserves its own channel. Here you will find it all abandoned and dismantled railway, walks to discover the industry surrounding them and taking train journeys to discover so much more. Come take a journey with as I go explore our wonderful Island The United Kingdom.
Trains are tested here - R.I.D.C Melton
EMR 810 and LNWR 730 captured on a shunt around the railyard at Asfordby Hill, Melton Mowbray 19th December 2024
The Railway Innovation & Development Centre (RIDC) site at Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire otherwise known as Old Dalby Test track, has been purpose-built to support both high and low speed testing of vehicles and infrastructure using 11 miles of 25kV overhead line equipment and 3rd/4th rail DC equipment.
The Melton facility provides two separate test tracks: a high-speed facility between Melton Junction and Edwalton, incorporating 13 miles of track up to 125mph - 11 miles of this with overhead line equipment - and a slow-speed test track from Old Dalby to Stanton Tunnel, with fou...

Using the DJI Mini 2 SE, I capture Leslie and Hawthorn No.4 steaming out of the New Boughton station and up the hill.

waste soil waste soil try leaving it were it is
I am surprised that they don't have a Gronk to handle the shunting.Does anyone recognise the origin of that yellow shunter?
That's what I'd love to know
Very interesting place this is. The Area 51 of Trains 😂 Thanks Purple 👍 Very good video 😊
Thank you Kirk. Yh curiosity was getting me on this one so I just had to go check it out
Lovely video, quality as always. I feel like spotting the full purple 810's is perfect for this channel 😂
Cheers and most definatly
FFS how long to empty this train. I bet the train driver loves delivering this shite. Feet up ...nice sleep. Surely there is a faster way to empty these wagons. Utter madness.
truthhhh
Hi just found channel its great have subscribed
Welcome aboard!
Leicester was clearly the venue "Du Jour" on this occasion!
Yh and to think my plan was to go Peterborough. Was strange that I didn't wake up in time so I blame the demons under my bed for hiding my phone 😅
Gloopy 😊
Black sheep lead the way by setting an example of freedom. You can quote me on that too 😃
I remember London Underground trains stored there once I think, oh and the yellow old Gatwick express
Really. That's cool and I didn't know that
Over paid and under worked 💪 😊
Hmmm
Brilliant video as always. The unloading was slightly more difficult than expected, as we only found out late in the day, that the trailer didn't have a winch, so the two tippler wagons were used as barrier vehicles along with the Ruston shunting loco to pull Ajax off the trailer. With everyone knowing what was needed, the operation was completed safely and efficiently, start to finish in 4 hours.
That's amazing and you was all on top form. You look good in ya visies 😃
The fat controller still exists
😄 🤣 😂
A great day out, here in LR,again. Some great catches, especially the 47s doing that lovely Big Sulzer pull off. The car park was certainly the place to get the A4 giving it some.
Yh amazing little spot that carpark. I'm glad you enjoyed the video
Excellent...loving all the different view points....
Yh you can thank my ADHD for that.
How lovely that your video inspired that chap to volunteer! Looks like a good place. Really enjoyed the ride and the drone footage.
I'm glad you like the video. Yh they humble me so
Fantastic video, loved every second of it 👍
Good. I'm glad 😊
Jesus they know the trains coming and 3 blokes wombling towards the gate and the train has to stop 🙄 muppetry.
😄 🤣 I know right
Nice to see 1980s blue liveries back in fashion! Although they were never quite that clean…
Hi purple x co 😊 There I was, fast scrolling through all the blxxdy diesels and wow!!! I nearly missed the STEAM TWAIIIIN 🚂🚃🚃🚃😱 🤣🤣🤣
😄 🤣 😂 😆 gotta be one in there for ya
Fantastic photography, looking at that green 47 it could be a mk2 Ford cortina but it’s still in use, like a cortina in a modern taxi rank
😄 🤣 😂 glad you like the video
Congratulations on 4K Subscribers
Thank you Kirk
You r the best in the world
Ah I try
Boring af
😄 🤣 😂 😆
Brilliant 👍
It was an epic moment. I swear down the big boss operators knew I'd be there lol
@@PurpleandCoRailwayAdventures I think they did 😊
What a nice little loco!
It sure is!
That one bloke is wearing Crocks !
Ajax is going to be missed on the island but it will be nice to have her get loved instead of just being a museum peace and a extra buffer in train story for the four wheelers (that was the reason why she was where she was in train story)
She'll be really enjoyed up here. I have no doubt the NLR team will do you all proud
Thankyou for answering a lot of questions regarding this line.I live in Dodford,and have always wondered where the line terminated in Daventry,and where it joins the main line in Northampton?Trains around here are sorely missed,it's true.
You are most welcome. Its the same case for most places. Shame really
Hi purple x Ryan x co 😊 Interesting footage,thanks for sharing 👍 BTW I got notification that a steam TWAIIIIN is now restored and is being moved from Peterboroughs Nene valley railway up north to a museum.It was a small picture but i could see it was green with gold pinstriping.
92 Regiment from NVR went on the same day. NVR would have had lots of promotion from many different people. Where as my favourite railway, the NLR didn't want that and kept Ajax's arrival on the down low. I'm very grateful they chose us to film. Sad I wasn't there in person but very lucky to have Ryan as dedicated as he is
@PurpleandCoRailwayAdventures 92 REGIMENT. Surely a Battle of Britain locomotive bears an RAF, not army, name.
Great Video Ryan and Purple
Thank you Deltic.
Great video all round, I wondered how they would get it off the lorry, and the end with the English electric engine rhythm well done
Proper techno
Hi purple from Dan
Hiya Dan
This was a bit "paint & dry" I'm afraid!!
Try filming being there filming it. Watching paint dry whilst standing in a chiller
Why are we still spending money on the vanity white elephant project?
I don't think we have a choice
Honestly 3 guys probably on 50k a year to open the gate - there is no wonder our Country is in a mess!
There's more to it than that. Back handers left right and centre in Northamptonshire.
Money is no object on HS2. Another billion on the price.
Tornado is a Beast!
Absolutely but I'm going to take your great advice once again and place a microphone away from that boiler. 😄 🤣
Great capture of the process. Thank you for mentioning my name for the recommendation in your video. Best regards to you Purple! Love your videos and enthusiasm for all things train. Keith
Thank you for the recommendation. I do like a good mission to accomplish and I think we pulled it off well. Thanks once again
So unproductive both staff and methodology 🙄
I won't argue those points that's for sure
Getting paid by the hour, obviously.
Aren't most of us
Interesting to see this, I used to pass that site when using the West Coast mainline.
You, me and many others. Atleast we will all know what happened to it in 10years time
Five minutes of faffing about wasting time. If they had been ready, the train could have proceeded straight to the unloading dock.
Probably
When the 3 blokes started they run to the gate to open it now 25 years later they r old and ready to retire but Got a told of money in bank thanks to h s 2 but won't b finished to 2050 good luck
Bless um
Taking their time do they know what they r doing I can do that faster then them getting paid a lot of money
Aye pal
Take them a week to unload that doing it like that,can't believe they are doing it like that.What about some side tippers haven't yous got any in pommy land.Well that's one thing I suppose at least the loco,s not hanging around.
Nah locos on form
This is tories wzsting good soil and our money! WhenBarmy Boris started this, it was to cost 30 billion pounds but it is now over 200 billion of our not so great pounds thanks to them.Sunaak woke up and cancselled phase 2 thanks! But anyone who moans about laubour should realLy take a tablet!
slower than mollases in winter
😆 😆 😆 😆
Jesus Christ that was an ordeal.
Yes! Somebody call my name. No need to be so formal brother. Just Purple will do 😉
Great Video really enjoyed it on my Sunday afternoon. Are you enjoying Panasonic? You didn’t say the model but my VX1 has served me well for the last 5 years! Just remember to bring plenty of batteries 🤣 Cheers 👍🏻
I'm enjoying the Panasonic as much as me and my Tommy enjoy your videos 😃. I have a VX 980. It's hard straight up free hand but with a tri-pod it's an absolute dream. Thank you for the wonderful comment and the epic videos we watch. You legend!
@@PurpleandCoRailwayAdventures Glad you do! No need to compliment me, I'm watching your videos! 😃
The old quarry down the road is now flooding and flooding gardens. Never happened until this started being filled in.
Oh really. Which old quarry is that

The fat man at the gates decides to walk up the middle of the railway track, towards the train ! Then waddles away.
