Another lovely vid, thank you. As a boy back in the 60s I remember the engine shed at Moorswater quite well, I visited the Looe brach on several occasions back then, a day out from my home in Falmouth and always by rail, quite an adventure, two branch lines and a main line, lining up the connections was always fun. Thank you for sharing it Brough back distant Happy memories.
I grew up below Cheesewring (Stowes Hill), with Kilmar, Golddiggings, Phoenix and Caradon as my playground. I was fortunate as a young child that my neighbours were the last of the quarrymen that had survived into retirement, most of whom had been born in the 19th century. They were rugged men but would fondly tell me about riding in wagons on the L&CR as children, usually for a Sunday school trip to Looe. It's hard now to comprehend the significance of that journey for families that didn't usually travel more than an hour's walk from home. I haven't returned for quite some time but it's a pleasure to see much of the line looking very attractive.
Thank you for a very well produced video. I was surprised to see so much foliage between the rails but pleasantly surprised to see a fairly modern sign referring to “passengers” and not “customers”!
Lovely video thank you 😊
Lovely coverage and outstanding photography!
Loved it thanks ❤
super amazing video....great footages....big like
Thank you! Cheers!
I know a Titfield whistle when I hear one, nice.
I always hide one as an Easter egg
Interesting to see the difference!!! 🤔🚂🚂🚂
Great video, shows how in a way it is still lost in time despite modern rolling stock
Absolutely
It’s so sad that the cement had to stop , now it’s only china clay 😢
And it doesn’t go anywhere on the line, only the Fowey Valley line
@@steamtothewest-trecanrail it goes to the old Burngullow freight loop still
@@steamtothewest-trecanrail you should make a video on Burngullow china clay dries
