- The lovely South Tynedale Railway runs from Alson up to Slaggyford in the northern part of England, in the North Pennines. This part of the country is beautiful and, as the railway travels up past the South Tyne River, the views from the train are lovely.

A very pretty scenic journey along the river and into the rural landscape. Certainly is a sight to behold these old steam train machinery and journies from the past. Thanks Warren for showcasing this area. Bushyboy Oz.
It is quite a sparse area around the northern side of the North Pennines but so beautiful. Even if I wasn't interested in the railway I think the views from the line are memorable. Cheers, Warren :)
Very interesting video, enjoy your day
Thank you! You too, cheers, Warren :)
Charming line, thanks for sharing 👍😊💜
Thank you! Cheers, Warren :)
Lovely video thanks for posting it.
Thank you for your encouragement, Cheers, Warren.
very interesting vidoe warren been long time since I be on it thanks for sharing cheers Bryan
I will be back up to the North Pennines this year for sure and I'd like to get to Northumberland again. I will let you know what my plans are so we can meet up if that works, Cheers, Warren :)
Excellent video of this beautiful line. I have roots in this area so it’s a special place for me.
Just a couple of points: The standard gauge line didn’t close in the ‘60s it was actually May 1976. Also the plan to reach Haltwhistle is unlikely to be achieved for a couple of reasons - north of Slaggyford there is a huge amount of missing infrastructure including several breaches of the trackbed in addition to this Lambley Station including the trackbed is privately owned.
That being said i do hope that these obstacles can be overcome and the target achieved.
Hats off to the amazing volunteers and supporters of this line whose selfless dedication and generosity make it all possible.
Thank you so much for the extra notes and better details here in your comment. It is such a shame that so much of the section north to Haltwhistle has elements missing. Let's hope that, with the lighter structural engineering needed for the narrow-gauge railway compared to the original line specification, they can fine a way to join back up, even with some local diversions around private land. I'm always the optimist. Cheers, Warren
good vid on channel thanks lee
Glad you enjoyed it Lee, cheers, Warren :)
Looking at that little loco, I was expecting Ringo Starr to narrate this. Lovely railway though,
Hey that's funny, sorry, only me :) Cheers, Warren
The raised cab is very controversial, as they could have made a new regular-looking cab based off the T. Green loco that Barber was based on
I believe the decision to keep the original cab structure and use ‘fabricated’ inserts to increase its height was to retain as much of the original loco in operation as possible. Also the inserts can be removed and the original structure returned to.
Whatever they did would have been controversial and some would be unhappy.
Realistically the original cab was neither practical nor safe for daily running by crews of average height and above.
Failure to adapt would probably have resulted in the loco being withdrawn from service.
Therefore I believe they made the right decision.
@@winco68 No they did not make the right decision, they could have easily made a conventional-style cab as there was a loco called MASHAM built by the same company as BARBER. But they were too lazy and didn't think properly about is heritage.
And now it just looks ugly and ruined
Gosh this is fascinating. I did notice the lines around the cab but they didnt spoil the overall view. Also there is the little hatch and that's what I asked about and the driver told me about the cab height. It is hard to say what the best way forward for them was but a change was needed as the doorways were too low for use on the railway here. I wonder if anyone else can offer an idea. Thanks for following along, much appreciated. Cheers, Warren :)
