In the 1990s I was on the BR bridge department based in Reading. We used to check the remaining BR owned property. We must have been some of the last BR staff to work on the line. Great video!
Living as I do in Eydon, I am greatly looking forward to seeing your further videos of this route as you post them. I have walked about as much of this route as is possible (some with permission of local farmers and land-owners). Thank you!
Another great video! The bridge identity that's still just about visible on the River Cherwell would have read BBG rather than BRG. It would have either had the number 23 underneath or the mileage (7m 47ch). Well done for making it up there. I did just that myself a few years ago before the vegetation took over.
Most informative video. Shame most of it’s gone now. Eydon Road halt is actually on the edge of Culworth village which would have served the locals more as it’s in walking distance, compared with Culworth GCR station which was much further away.
Great video - although Austin was noticeable by his absence! 😁Your music choices were sublime as usual. Dunno if it's a processing issue with YT but I couldn't get higher than 480p resolution. Still enjoyed it though.
Yeah did miss Austin on this but he was snoring on the sofa when I headed out 😁 I think the resolution issue does sort its self out after a couple of days, I get it as well . Thanks for your comments.
Great video as always

Maybe you could email me the relevant farmers so I can get permission to gain access
@@NWP_EXPLORING No problem! Forgive me .... I'm new to this ..... How do I find your email address, please?

Fantastic video as allways did you know chacombe road halt was actually called chalcombe road halt
Didn’t know that but thanks, still doing some research on this link line 👍
@NWP-EXPLORING-HISTORY im pretty sure it's a locals thing about it being chacombe halt if you get me
