Skye High on the Storr!
Take a 'virtual visit' to this ultra-spectacular place, absolutely unique in Europe.
Situated on the southern end of the Trotternish Ridge, just north of Portree, this volcanic outcrop characterises the Island's fiery past. This 5 minute video doesn't really do justice to the beauty of the area, so go see for yourself!

following a recent documentary on British TV, about this amazing cruise ships maiden voyage to Antarctica, I remembered seeing it off the beautiful coast of Skye, Scotland, UK.

71000. Duke of Gloucester goes to Newcastle
zhlédnutí 18KPřed 11 lety
Like so many main line railtours, the Duke's' run from Manchester to Newcastle, England, in Feb 2002, turned into a mini adventure. The tour encountered hail, rain & snow, oh & a little sun. But something unexpected as well! Spectacular winter scenery helped make it a memorable run, especially over the bridges of Tyneside. Enjoy! Oh! & a very happy new year everyone.
71000, Duke of Gloucester at Toton.
zhlédnutí 2,8KPřed 11 lety
March 2008 & 71000 paid a unique visit to Toton MPD. In its day, Toton was one of the largest coal train marshalling yards in the UK but now it is the main depot for EWS. I have to say that the staff at Toton were unbelievably friendly & helpful during our visit & I'd like to dedicate this video as a tribute to them. On arrival, we were met by almost the entire staff of the depot, including the...
71000, Duke of Gloucester slips up Dainton!
zhlédnutí 49KPřed 11 lety
3 back to back runs in 3 days meant the 'Duke's support crew were stretched to the limits. I've chosen this run because it was, to say the least, eventful as the vid shows. Starting at Bristol Temple Meads, 71000 was accompanied by 'Royal Sovereign' the Queens loco. Unfortunately when it was required to assist on the banks, it failed to power up. With the result that the 'Duke' slipped to a hal...

Seen here, on the 'Dukes' only visit to this amazing rail museum, visitors were treated to a weekend of contrasts. With 71000 taking pride of place along side locos of an even older vintage. Many local rail volunteers got the treat of a lifetime when they were able to actually drive the 'Duke', including yours truly. Also my first visit to the Museum & I have to say, I was most impressed & woul...
Mayflower Power on the ELR
zhlédnutí 799Před 11 lety
Blessed by uncharacteristically good weather, visitors to the East Lancs Autumn Gala were treated to some magic steam events, not least being the appearance of the recently rebuilt, B1 class loco, 'Mayflower'. It looked and sounded as sunny as the weather, in its apple green livery! If you have a surround sound system, give it a work out as Mayflower blasts over the ELR's 'hump'. The reflected ...

During a 1940's war weekend on the East Lancashire Railway, the famous steam loco 71000, 'Duke of Gloucester' hauled a real troop filled with troops from local regiments. This video shows scenes on the railway, in the run up to the actual troop train's departure from 'Ramsdown' and shows the crowds that came to see and take part in the event. Much of this footage is unique and hasn't been seen ...
Highland Fling on a Scottish mountain
zhlédnutí 594Před 11 lety
Young MacBackpackers learn to fling it on the Quiraing, a mountain on the Hebridean Island of Skye. Their tour guide teaches them to 'Strip the willow!' with hilarious results. A local lady said she'd never seen such 'goings on' on the Quiraing. LoL. The backdrop is the Scottish mainland and the volcanic pinnacles of the Trotternish Ridge. If this type of activity appeals to you, contact 'mackb...

    !WARNING! Do not be tempted to visit this beautiful spot after dark because as well as losing the beautiful views to be had looking out over miles of wonderful Lancashire countryside, after dark you are very likely to encounter people who have travelled far miles around to indulge in the pastime known as “dogging”. The majority of those indulging in looking for anonymous sexual partners will be gay men - I can provide this information because I am frequently one of the gay men visiting Crown Point. Ta-ra! 🤣
