  • Discovering The Remains Of Buxton Steam Engine Shed Part 1
    In this two part video I travel to Buxton in the Derbyshire Peak District armed with my 1965 Ian Allen - British Locomotive Shed Directory and go looking for what remains of Buxton's Old LNWR Steam Locomotive Depot which was closed by British Rail in March 1968 and demolished very soon afterwards.
    Special thanks go to the following people for allowing me to use their photographs in this video.

    Lower Darwen steam shed site is an interesting and rewarding exploration, I used that edition of the Ian Allan Shed Directory when I visited in 2022!

    Around 20 years ago the pits were still very much easy to locate as they were full of water and we used to collect the frog spawn. Its only in that time since they have been filled in and the trees have grown to what it's become now. I bet I can still locate where the pits are now.

    So sad to see and wish I has a time machine. Used to bash 10D and 10A onaltermate weeks with 10B almost daily. Remember steam so well although no that old. For future TE specials what about Foxfield and Coniston railways Hodbarrow mines and the extension of the Lakeside line to Plumpton. Thankyou and Happy Xmas

      Cameraman oways talks about having time machine going back with money he had now and too see steam again. Foxfield and Coniston Line is part my childhood I went School in Coniston and walked the line for years oways thought one day could do something on here never knew it might be Video on Thomas Edward Channel but it will come in future but as you know when your local you don't go to your local towns or villages you end up travelling out of Cumbria hehe
      Lakeside line to Plumpton have you not heard me mentioning that in past Videos I've already kinda started filming that.

    Fantastic T E .... used to drive all round peak district you see sad empty remains of old missing tracks.... where I'm working now near rugby I'm working on old abandoned track driving up and dropping off loads in field you try to imagine those heady days of what smells sounds and sights off steam that was actually running along long gone tracks.....
    Looking forward to part two stay safe T E and if i don't forget ... all of you family friends and excellent camera man.. have a great xmas and new year ...... Neil

My mate works for the HSE and he was showing me there facility just outside buxton, very interesting place, you can see it from the road and its london tube trains.

    The reason trees grow on disused railways is because the ash is a natural fertiliser and helps the plants to grow.

      That's new one to me I got once told off other fella that the carriages moved seeds around and I still believe oil is factor too Because been around old oily scrap yards plants love it. But everything could be feeder to them growing. Hope you enjoyed the Video?
