Not sure if you've ever mentioned it in any of your Piccadilly videos but the opening off to the left at 2:36 was the entrance to the derelict Mayfield station. Never saw the station in use but remember travelling to Salford Central in the early 90s and seeing the large conveyor bridge that ran overhead from the old Parcelforce depot on the right (now the Network Rail offices) to Mayfield station. Left over from the days when trains were used for parcel freight.
@@doncoffey5820 There is a great video about Mayfield Station (including some fantastic drone footage) ruclips.net/video/_YInaz8n9IU/видео.html, made by one of my other favourite RUclipsrs at the moment, Martin Zero. Worth checking out if you like railway history.
I especially enjoy routes through complicated interlocking. Very nice, thanks.
And so your youtube career begins....short and sweet. Thanks.
Yes, thats the one that started it all!
I went and watched a 185 doing the depot run it’s pretty cool
Nice & smooth!
The very first video I posted!

They took it down soon after I started on the railway which was 2003. They are supposed to be redeveloping it. Lets hope so!

Didn't realise MP 313 controlled exit to Ardwick shed
It doesn’t. MP 317 does but then you have to pass MP 313 to get out into the throat.
A zig zag ride to Piccadilly!
It’s what we call a complex route Martin.
Hi

All my videos are 185s unless stated.
