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.

Constructed by a highly skilled model engineer over several years, this beautiful working model is loved by young & old as it gives rides on Southport model engineering club's outdoor layout. Based on a 'Britannia' class loco, see it progress to a complete, working model in this unique video.
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...
71000, Duke of Gloucester at Shildon RM
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 11 lety
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 ...

With lots of fog developing over parts of Lancashire, it was like looking out over a bright sea from Winter Hill.
71000 Hauls ELR Troop Train
zhlédnutí 704Před 11 lety
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...

Following a complete rebuild between 1996 & 2004, on the East Lancashire railway, the 'Duke of Gloucester' steam locomotive is seen in this clip being trialed, prior to its return to mainline service. Apologies for the sound quality on the clip and note it was shot in 4/3 format.

Manchester Modelling Exhibition

The Manchester Modelling Exbibition was held for the first time at Event City on Trafford Park and the scale of it was breathtaking. As was the skill & inguinuity of those who brought along the hundreds of superb models, exhibits & display. Outstanding models included the 'Air Atlantic' Dakota, a large scale flying replica of a Vulcan Bomber, powered by 2 jet turbine engines and what must have ...
Those water troughs must have created HUGE resistance!
I courted my girlfriend up at Crown Point back in the late 60s. This might have been quite distracting if it had been there back then 😳 Great work for a forward thinking town though. 👍
sound like the wind is trapped inside and screaming for help.
I can't believe it's eight years old, it would seem that every wind direction, would give it a different sound. It's in America?
Excellent.
Was it playing Paranoid? or Iron Man?
I expected to hear a symphony from Mozart. Actually.
So creepy
It’s ashamed that Papyrus, Doncaster, Cameronian, Salmon Trout, Great Northern, Silver Link, Quicksilver, Silver King, Silver Fox, Empire of India, Commonwealth of Australia, and Dominion of New Zealand are not in preservation
Horrible, like everything in the modern architecture, sounds like fucking hell. 🔥🔥
Looks like a tornado; the sound is somewhere between whales and bees. Super interesting!
Singing??? More like the annoying pile of pipe trash.
Tebay is pronounced 'tee-bay', not 'ti - BAY'. My grandmother lived there when I visited in the 1950s. She lived on Chapel Terrace. As children we used to check off engine numbers. They were wonderful peaceful days.
Creepy🤯🤯🤯😱😱
What is that 😲😮?
My tree over here sounding like a soundtrack to a scary scene in suspense movie
I could meditate next to this. I like it.
Was expecting a better sound. That sounds like wind through a jumbled pile of Pvc pipe on a construction site. I have heard it lol
can you tell me what kind of jet engine is for the hang glider? please tell me if you have time to view this cmt.

Some South African/Rhodesian locomotive videos would be much appreciated. Thanks for taking the time and making the effort to share this with us all.
I miss the majesty and allure of these great steam locks. Modern trains just don't have the same attraction for me. Thank you so much for sharing this with us all.
Utterly, utterly beautiful

Reminds me of CHILDREN OF THE STONES theme song.
Just beautiful 💖
1:07 literally sounds peaceful
It almost sounds like what 1 loud gas powered horn sirens in Switzerland
!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! 🤣
We have some bits for one. Nice to see a younger Ben admiring her.
It is very eerie, but would that vary dramatically depending on the direction and intensity of the wind?
It’s creepy 🥲
Pretty small falls,your dog sure seem to enjoy the cold water. Thanks for sharing and greetings from England 🇬🇧 Simon and Beth 🙋👍💚
I wouldn’t mind visiting this singing ringing tree
Let's go somewhere peaceful and ruin it!
Horrible, no body would like to live aroun it, and never think about animals.
You alive?
. . . sounds akin to the sound the black MONOLITH made in 2001: A Space Odyssey
Sci Fi soundtrack
Assustador
Que medo que meu deu
Parece com sons d planetas que o povo coloca n internet
Que medo kkkk
15 anos 😱
The sound of that whistle bring a tear to my eye. Thanks for sharing.
lost souls screaming?
Bring her back to Loughborough where she was rebuilt, the only thing missing will be Tony wheelhouse R.I.P flower
2001 A Space Odyssey is that you?
There must be a better recording of this without all the mic noise.
