Great footage of the work in progress.

Awesome footage!

Yes Brandon it is!

Great footage. I find it hard to believe that we had a mammoth flood in 2009, and one to a lesser extent in 2015. But now they say two of the pillar bases have started to erode. Just doesn't make sense to me as I would assume the bridge would have been inspected numerous time since 2009 and 2015.

you would have thought

So I take it there's no trains to Carlisle for the next couple of weeks

[@OwensTrainAdventures]

Yes that's right, another 4 or 5 weeks I believe. Thanks for watching 👍
