My neck of the woods, in fact I collected some tickets from the machine at Danby the other week.
Grosmont is pronounced Grow-mont by the way :)
Your song lyrics are truly inspiring, you've the voice of an angel, surely an album and world await just around the corner😅
😂😂
Your composure when telling us your lost phone tale was brilliant: no panic; just pure calm and 'in control'. Your maturity came across most impressively. And as for where you took us in that enchanting Esk Vale neck o' the woods (and your chosen soundtrack to accompany us on that vlog was among the best you've given us so far too) - was, errr, SHIMPLY SCHTUNNING MY DEAR! - ALSO:
I hope you didn't leave the North Yorkshire Moors without taking a trip on the NYM Railway to Pickering(?)
Your Good 'elf as ever G and I hope you meet up with your phone pdq! - PJ x
Thanks PJ! I'll have to go back for the NYMR 😂
@@GLovesTrains .....G you looked at yer wrist for the time and you havent got a watch on....ha ha ha brilliant
Northern must love you G. It seems that you been on Northern trains so many times in different counties in the North of England and with your incredible talent and humour. Most of Yorkshire does have wonderful scenery and amazing places to visit.
G your videos are brilliant and your personality is the difference. Well done G!
Just gets better and better every week G thank u so much for these very brilliant Vblogs can't wait for whitby on next one 👍🤗
Maybe knickers should be marked with a head size, like hats, in addition to a waist size.
Really loving the Esk valley line G, the scenery and stations are exceptionally beautiful. Hope you have your phone back and that no one was too worried about your lack of communication or whereabouts. Looking forward to the next one, stay safe.
My Tuesday treat
What with ya made up account in last hour 😂
There's a lot of pretty stations as well pretty villages on that line. Glad you got your phone back at the end of the day
Thanks Thornaby37!
Shame you lost your phone but still managed to get through the day without it. Great video G and really look lovely that part of Yorkshire. Still need to ride the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and no blue paint on your clothes :p
Thanks Cyber! Was strange not having a phone haha
She'd hate it in the 90s 🤣
Lovely stations built with the local stone. Great scenery. Nice.
Cool!
The fly is like 'squishy babies'. I love the scenery, thanks for the video 😊
Oh wow, they just keep getting more and more beautiful, you know when they say that there is a beautiful area that is just untouched? Well that would be the Esk Valley
Brilliant video G, I'm sorry to hear you lost your phone but I did find from reading the comments that you did get it back which is good. Anyways Lealholm does look like a pretty village, one I've never even heard of infact. But I have heard about the North Yorkshire Moors railway and it's a line I'd love to visit sometime.
I hadn't heard of any of these places but they all were beautiful!
I read in one of the railway mags that the early train on the Whitby line has been withdrawn. It's only been around since about 2019, having been introduced yo provide an earlier service from Whitby, something that was cut when train stabling facilities at Whitby were closed around 1991.
Great video, G! Nice to see a line where the stations are close to public toilets - especially with the longer waits between trains. I don't think I've seen a 156 connected to a 158 before either - up here you're more likely to see a 158 coupled up to a 170 instead (which always looks a bit odd)!
Hmm ye don't think I've ever seen those coupled up either 😂 thanks barrowc!
As far as I am aware the early 5am service only worked Monday-Friday but this changed in May 2023. It did only stop at some stations though on the Esk Valley Line and operated more as a positioning route for the early Whitby-Middlesbrough routeing. On a Sunday the 3 North east routes (Newcastle-Carlisle / Hexham-Nunthorpe / Middlesbrough-Whitby) become connected also so services run Carlisle to Middlesbrough, Nunthorpe, Battersby and Whitby! The Whitby route being 6 hours long
Love that blooper at the end 😂😂
Love your videos, how did we cope back in the 80's with just paper timetables......
Thanks !
Another in the classic series of "G" loves Trains, and it is good to see that the mention of weak bladders and the need for more toilet facilities remains prominent in this episode 👍
😎
Great video again hope you have your phone back ✅✅👍👍
Thank you lovely travel guide, you did well to keep it all together having lost 😢 your phone. x. 🚂🚴♂️👣🇺🇦
During the winter, the Esk Valley line is usually single 2-car units, and during the summer they are usually doubled up because a single 2-car unit wouldn't cope with the passenger numbers they often get.
Could have been worse! you could have left your nickers on the other train!!!!! LOL Great video as always
Yeah true!
So many memories on this line , so thanks very much for these lovely videos , absolutely brilliant .👍👍
What a gorgeous line - thank you for taking us!
Instead of doubling up the trains, it would be great if they could double the service on the line but I expect there’s not enough passing places / staff / signalling etc.
Another great uploaded! Really enjoyed it yet again! I look forward to the third part on the Esk Valley line! Plus I hope you had a ride on the NYMR whilst you were up this way!
Thanks and ill have to come back for that!
@@GLovesTrains It’s a great line to travel on behind some great traction! Glad you enjoyed the Esk Valley line whilst you were up here! And I’m glad you got your phone back too!
Lealholm has a nice sweet shop.That very early train may not run now but it use to skip a number of stops including Gt Ayton,Kildale,Commondale and probably some others east there off.There was a late night one too which skipped a load of stops .The worst shelter on the Esk Valley, excluding the Middlesbrough suburban bit,is Sleights!
Great video as always G, some really lovely stations and places along that route. You had glorious weather for it too. I understand the anxiety of losing your phone, its more the anxiety of being out of touch and causing potential worry for others I think. I see from your comment later that you got it back. I can remember the days when we didn't all have them to a man or woman. I don't know how we managed! Thought I heard at Grosmont the characteristic snort of a Class 37 on the NYMR. Could be wrong though. Lealholm was gorgeous but then so were the other places. Thanks for a really super film.
Yeah it was that for sure, thanks Carl!
That’s a fantastic video GLT, your usual cheery self despite the mislaying your phone, I’d have been frantic, well done you. I hope you did retrieve it
Yeah the conductor handed it in for me 👍
Great vlog and some nice stations covered as always. Some great scenery down the Esk Valley line. Sorry to hear about losing your phone.
Cheers Sam, got it back now 😂
Fantastic phone less vlog G i hope you got reunited with it and managed to contact Lucy . I enjoyed this video very much
I did thanks Stuart!
Sorry to hear you lost your phone. However it didn't spoil your day nor your presentation. Excellent video yet again G!! Beautiful weather for walking. I love how you wander away from the station and show us what these beautiful places are like. At least you managed to judge the time and never missed a train. Does your camera not have a clock on it? Mine does for time stamping photos and videos I take. Cannot wait to see your next vlog of the rest of the line! Keep 'em coming, Ray xx
Lol I'd laugh if it did have the time now, never thought of that 😂 thanks Ray!
Very nice stations today! So beautiful and peaceful looking. ❤
Looks beautiful G
Fantastic vlog as always and hope you got your phone back okay🚂
It is definitely pronounced GroMont 😂😂. If you're back in the area, there is the old railway walk from Grosmont to Goathland, where heartbeat was filmed. Well worth a walk. We stopped in Egton last year, and got the train from Egton to Whitby, and it is indeed a childrens playgroup in the building next to the station.
Check out Bargoed train station in the South Wales , 17 miles from Cardiff, 8 miles north of Caerphilly. You can get a train from Cardiff straight through to Bargoed, the journey takes 45 minutes. It used to be Bargoed junction but the third train that went from Newport to Brecon is gone, with a cycle track in its place. I much prefer trains.
Bright sunny day! I love the Lovers bridge, such crisp flowing water. 😎
Top choice.
we out again good to see another video love these
You have traversed to the eastern side of me this week - sadly we lost our service as a result of the Beeching cuts I believe - the station platforms are still there all eerily overgrown.
Until I moved here I had no idea how beautiful this part of the country is - though can be cold and wet lol
Castleton is great - that bench you were on is in front of the public loo's and its the only one's I have seen that has sheep wandering around - I once drove past saw a guy open the door to the Gents and a sheep just walked out like it was perfectly normal ha ha ha
lovely Railway stations along this line
if you ever end up in this position again without a phone all day, I'd definitely recommend getting a wristwatch or fob watch or something, cause I get that same thing of 'can't tell time without a clock'. love the vid tho x
loved this video g
Nice one G I saw NYMR on the video hope you get a chance to explore it between Grosmont and Pickering
When I’m an adult I’d love to leave London and move to west Yorkshire - it’s such a nice part of the UK and it’s got some lovely quaint villages!
This is *North* Yorkshire!
Great video G, lovely scenery all the way, hope you got your phone back!
Great video G, lovely part of the world and one of my favourite lines! I can get to it for the day from Lancaster with a North Country Rover and get more time in Whitby by travelling to Scarborough and getting there on the Coastliner bus. Surprised you didnt spend more time on the NYMR bit of Grosmont station, you can cross over to these platforms without restriction!
Lovely video, great that phone not lost.
Nice video G, I'll add that line to my list to travel on as it looks sublime for its views.
When you said the unlikely combo of 156 and 158, until not long ago EMR did that from Nottingham to Liverpool Lime Street until Northern acquired the 156s, a few are being prepared and reliveried for the move to, I believe, Newton Heath depot
I am Australian.I drove around that part of the UK, I just love it .
I can’t even imagine leaving my phone somewhere! I’m getting anxiety just from you being phoneless! How have we all become so attached to these little blocks of silicon! Damn you Steve Jobs! But also thank you Steve Jobs! Cant imagine going back to the 90s when all my phone did was make calls…or the 80s when it was still attached to the wall 🤣
😂😂😂
Going to need new knickers soon lol. Cracking video Gloves. ;)
Yeah g'day G,
It was a bit of a bummer about the phone and hopefully, no one pocketed it and we can return to normal service. Since my medical misadventure I have rediscovered my love for trains and your excursions make my Wednesdays mornings.
Cya, round like a rissole.
Grosmont was used in the filming of the first Harry Potter film ( blink and you'll miss it ) Lovely scenic route !
Grosmont's s is silent, so it is pronounced Groumont. Also, I think Leaside is pronounced Leeside, same as the suburb Lea on the Blackpool Road in Preston.
Fantastic video as always
Love the video's keep up the good work
You looked at a wrist for the time but didn't have a watch on right at the end lol
Great vlog and the nymr in the back Ground also 19 August 2023 the A1 locomotive trust are having a opening day from 10am till around 3pm hop you vlog it and visit it @glovestrains
im loving every single station on this line so far and its def a line i would love to ride in the future if im ever in that area & the scenery looks lovely in the summer sunshine anyway i cant wait to see the rest of the line towards Whitby awesome vlog
It is pronounced Gro-mont not Grozmont! lol You really should have scheduled a longer wait there so you could have checked out one of the UK's finest heritage railways. A tragic missed opportunity! :)
Maybe a future video if G returns to God's country
Northern ticket machines have sold rovers and rangers since the end of March, although there was a trial at a handful of stations for a few weeks before then. No idea why they weren't available at the machine you looked at, they should be available on all Northern's TVMs now. There should have been a "Rovers and Rangers" button on the home screen.
Join the movement, return the much beloved pacers #blovedpacers
Love your videos. Leaving your phone should inspire you to buy a watch 😂
I tried that but it broke 😂
My mind is now full of the number 156496 :-)
😂 wet paint! Hope it went well…
Really hope you get your phone back. Love your videos.
I keep making comments, and enjoy your posts. Why and who looks after all the lovely gardens ( herb line especially, but not limited to) the rail companies or local pride . Cause all the stations look so good. Any way thanks again from Australia on the night when the womens English football team knocked us out of the World cup . 😢👍
Awesome Video G Loves Trains 😄😄
If you're looking for vegan/vegan-friendly places when you get to Hull then Trinity Market has Falafia (the best falafels in UK IMHO) plus another couple places in the market. A little further out has the fantastic Barleys (great people as well as food). Beverley also has Falafia, and in Cottingham you have the lovely Blondes (Tuesday - Sunday)
Thanks for that!
Vegan food outlets in Hull? Things have certainly changed there since I was there.
The 's' in Grosmont is silent 😂
Great video, I hope you managed to recover your phone 📱🤞🏿
You may well get a few comments regarding the pronunciation of Grow-Mont rather than Gross-Mont but to be honest I've heard Ewkston Bawlshaw Lane and Exton Bahlshaw Lane and any combination therein when travelling on that line.
The prettiest village with, dare I say it, the prettiest girl. Lovely video.
A gentleman can compliment a lady without there being any prurient intentions, even in this so called enlightened age, regardless of the orientation of either party. It's just politeness.
@@blur_parklife
Should have gone to the engine shed whilst you were at Grosmont.
Excellent blog
Pleasant to watch a line a traveled for many years ago
Looking forward to next blog
Will you walk over larpool viaduct?
As a Swede am I not sure if I understand the song and why you sing
“If you are in xxx put your knickers on”
It must be a British joke or something
Henrik
She sings "put your knickers on your head". Surely that's funny, even in Sweden! 😄
@@garywolstenholme4097
Of course is it funny but I thought it might have been a reference to something that I didn’t understand or seen on TV
@@Kulla1berg I've never seen anything like it in popular culture, and have always assumed it was GLovesTrains original work. I may be wrong, of course. Have a good day.
Awesome vlog, okay I really like you G. Those are lovely Railway Stations along the line. I would love to meet you one day & offer my hand in friendship. ❤❤❤
These train stations are so historical compared to alot of our modern stations
Nothing to do with this video but have you seen the new Birmingham bull in Birmingham new street?
No I've not been in a while
No station anymore - but I think Grassington beats Lealholm. Try some of the villages up around Skipton/Settle in the Yorkshire Dales.
Thankyou for this. I probably don't have all that much in common with you but I love you to bits and you make me laugh. Love, laughter and peace. Respect. x, oh p.s trains.
Very entertaining posts...did you get your phone back?
Yes I did thanks
Remember - your camera has a clock - but only if you set it up!
How did you survive a whole day without your phone? We are so conditioned to use them for everything today from maps, to watches, to checking out train timetables and live run updates, to recording videos. Plus I hear you make phone calls on them.
Go to Grange over sands again!
You always wear black. Except for your knickers (on yor 'ed) which were blue.
I always wondered thanks
If I left my phone on the train there’d be no video!
😂😂
Very nice. It is pronounced Grow-mont btw.
What? What’s with that promise to pay button on the ticket machine? Do you know?😊
Northern ticket machines are card payment only.
The purpose of the "promise to pay" is that anyone who has only got cash with them obtains a "promise to pay" ticket from the ticket machine, which states the origin station and the destination. The promise to pay must be exchanged for a ticket at the first available opportunity, at which point the relevant fare for that journey must be paid (usually either a ticket check on the train or at the ticket barrier at the destination). Failure to obtain a promise to pay before boarding the train is classed as attempted fare evasion, which could result in a hefty fine or criminal record for anybody who is caught
Good job you didn't have an e-ticket.
When it comes to pronouncing Grosmont the s is silent so instead of Gros-mont it's Gro-mont
Great video glovestrains. Hope you didnt get any blue paint on your bum 😂
Hope you managed to get your phone back from Millsborough!
I did thanks!
@@GLovesTrainsThank goodness for that!
@@GLovesTrainsyou were lucky if it had been later might have had a different outcome
Loved the video as usual G! You're so cute
the real prettiest village in Yorkshire is grassington as that's Where my girlfriend lives and she's the prettiest of them all
Hope you found your phone G!
Did you get the phone back?
Yeah 👍
