Nice vid Pete. Great to see the steamer in the winter conditions. Sad to see Thorpe Marsh as it is now. How Britain used to be so Great but is unrecognisable now.
@benGBRf Hi buddy. Thanks alot Ben. Thorpe Marsh has been like that about 10 years now I think. Complete scam 😒 All the Rail infrastructure is there, but nature has taken over.
Good video Pete i bet BP' sounded great climbing the grade a couple of miles from Moorthorpe at a place we used to call slippery bridge a small aquaduct , used to go there as a kid
@@donnypete It's if i remember at royd moor top the hemsworth by-pass cut the road in half go on the west section of the road and you will see the railway bridge a farm lane leads to said bridge mate
A lovely place to capture Blue Peter. Thorpe Marsh is unbelievable, last time I went past that was years ago, I didn't realise they had pulled everything down. Is it the next Amazon site.
@ernestbailey9194 Cheers, Ernest, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, it was a scandal bringing Thorpe Marsh to the ground. They were going to build a gas-fired power station!!! That plan was scrapped. Then there was talks about it being a car hub!!!! The new one now is that there going to turn it in to Europe's largest Battery park!!!! To store electricity...... you just can't make it up mate
Another excellent video Pete ,superb footage of blue peter keep warm you 2 and stay safe a t b Pete 👍🐶
@sydwoods.woodsendjunction9492 Many thanks Syd appreciate that mate. And you keep warm and safe too buddy.

Good vid, Moorthorpe is basically my local station (still a couple of miles for me to travel), nice pint in The Mallard on the station.

Excellent Pete and I hope the gonads are still attached!!😂
@JohnDuncanPeacock 😆 🤣 yes they don't look like plumbs now lol
Thanks for this coverage - fantastic. That site of the power station is that what we can expect when Ratcliffe is demolished?
@roberthoward3723 I'm glad you enjoyed it, Robert. Unfortunately, yes, mate, when they pull Ratcliffe down 😞😞
@ ridiculous
Knew I should have gone Moorthorpe instead of Swinton, thought it might have been a water stop and was correct 🤦♂️
@@mitchellbeardshall6305 shame mate. It was great to see. I think mayflower is stopping there tomorrow
