Myxi hit thevrabbits in 1962. On the walk down to Weedlly springs there were mounds over dead rabbits about every 30 metres. The cutting was free of vegitation and one track remained. A magical place.
Well done, I love to explore world my self, abandoned houses, old tunnels ! I love it all ! Thanks for nice video, currently I live in Doncaster, maybe you know places in Doncaster too, interesting, abandoned ones! We can go together and explore places! Thanks again! I'm enjoyed your video very much. Thanks
Just found your channel, the last time I did that walk must be over thirty years ago , the tunnels were open then , in sugarloaf there was an abandoned burnt out car , how on earth it got there is beyond me . I loved the hawthorn growing in the chalky embankment sides , because of the scarcity of soil in the chalk they were like a natural bonsai , and of of course the complete silence apart from the occasional bird song .
Enjoyed this video Paul - especially (and obviously) the journey through the tunnel - summer looks like the best time to do it actually. You've got the same knack for making on-screen corrections as I have as well lol. Keep it going pal.
Hey there! 🚶♂🌄 Thanks for this awesome exploration video of East Yorkshire's forbidden tunnels and the unexpected detour to the vineyard 🍇🍷. The history and stories you shared about these tunnels and the 1947 winter were so fascinating. 😮 It's a shame we couldn't explore Weedby Tunnel, but Sugarloaf Tunnel was quite the adventure! Can't wait for more of your explorations. 👏👍
Last time I was there Stoneledge were busying themselves slowly landfilling the other end of Sugar loaf (the bit between Sugar loaf and Drewton you refer to as a quarry). Drewton had bats another excuse used to deny access. The work that went into these feats of engineering. They ought to be listed and opened up. When they're gone they're gone. They used to be owned by Drewton estates.🤷♂️
I used to work in South Cave, and went from Little Weighton to South Cave near High Hunsley where the transmitter is situated, but i could not helpt but notice some brick built round objects in the fields, would they be ventilation shafts from the tunnel?
Don't know why this popped up...used to go camping occasionally on this area back in 79/80. Weedly Springs...something like that. Me and my mates were usually a bit pi55ed. Happy days. When was the track abandonded and pulled up?

Thanks for sharing, I live in Hull!
On top of that bridge at the end looks a great place for a stealth camp
Fabulous video. This is one of my local walks but never dared go down onto the railway line or into the tunnels, so thanks for doing it for me 😀
Why wouldn't you dare?
@@paulamess9212 too much of a wuss 😀
@@paulamess9212 I can dare to go there!

Might need these tunnels soon enough if things get any worse
Literally 10 minutes from me, I did this about 2 months ago but only managed the one tunnel due to adhering to signs ect
I have been to this tunnel before the gates were there,I walked through it,its on my videos.
