Yeh Will See it All

Sheer Beauty. just what I needed from the uefas football 👋🛤️!++

Well Done to the Restoration Workers hope get see all video

Absolutely Fascinating. Some Mod features trains etc Do Nothing For Me 🛤️🛤️😊🚂

Brilliant!

@ 2:39 Oh I've think I've heard about this before some where about it's 'movable platforms'!!! @17:21 - isn't it always the way - spend a long time looking for something & the moment you stop looking - you suddenly find it!!! 😄🚂🚂🚂

A very well made documentary and excellent narration. Keep up the good work! 😁

I hope one day that it can be restored as a heritage railway. The scenery is fantastic and tourists would just love it. I have bicycled some of the route. 30” gauge could be replaced with a cheaper 15” for tourists from Southwold to Walberswick? Like Bressingham Gardens? Just a thought, it all costs money. Great film, well done and thank you 👍🏼🇬🇧👏🏻🥳🇬🇧

I liked Southwold, the very essence of what a market town should be. Like so many in the East Anglian coastal area, it was neglected by all but the lower classes who depended on it, then came sufficient affluence to the local landowners that they preferred to have their motor car and it lost their support. Others that went the same way can be found a little further south on the Essex peninsulas

Wow, what a beautifully researched video, with very clear narration. I was surprised at the sheer variety of great scenery on the route. And I was further surprised to see how much of the route survives. The volunteers have made a great start with 'boots on the ground', and momentum is clearly on their side. The railway will surely be a great asset to Southwold.

Another story beautifully told. Thank you for sharing. So only one thing left to say: Where next? 🚂

Another great loss 😢😢

Brilliant film thank you! I managed to see many of the remaining traces on a visit some years ago. I have a great photo of my late wife, looking bemused, sitting on the Walberswick bench. I also found some bits of rail at the harbour branch. There have been many additions thanks to supporters of the line. Your video brings it all together forming a complete trip along the line. Excellent.

Another fantastic video at broadcast quality. Thank you, sir.

Amazing video! for a line that closed so early I wasn't expecting to see as much video footage from operation! Some real gems still to see on this line and great to see some of the work carried out at Blythburgh such a beautiful part of England.

A huge thank you to all volunteers who carry out such wonderful work 🎉🎉🎉🎉

As ever the research is fantastic, the archive footage and the present day footage so skillfuly edited, this is a television level documentary as good as the BBC could make. Thank you.

The Victorians called it 'silly Suffolk'. When two employees of a branch with 20mph trains get themselves offed, you begin to see why.

Great video, my neck of the woods, I hadn't realised it closed so long ago

Another incredibly well made video many thanks.

First rate video on this lovely line. Your narration is spot-on and the combination of archive photos and film, interspersed with present day footage and drone useage makes for a very watchable programme. I was unaware that the trust had been so productive in recreating small pockets of the line.

I had never heard of this railway but I'm struck by the similarity of the stations to the Isle of Man Steam Railway, also 3 Foot Gauge.

Absolutely brillant well done keep yh.coming

Wonderfully produced account, fully doing justice to this unique and much-lamented little railway. The geography and relationship of the various sites along the line are wo much clearer, now, and also just how much still remains. Thank you for this.

Knowing my interest in old railways a family member brought me a copy of the "Narrow Gauge Album" 1961 by P.B. Whitehouse that she randomly came across in a second hand store - unusual considering I'm in South Africa! And yes - there on pages 78 and 79 is the section on this railway. As per that section "It displayed an unusually stubborn reluctance to lie down and die decently".

Delightful video

A well researched illustrated and commented film. Congratulations. It would be interesting to find out if the original Act was ever repealed. If not then it still exists unless there is a specific abandonment clause.!

Another very-well presented video, thank you. I wonder how much this line may have been subject to periodic flooding, or how stable the track bed may have been during wet conditions. Still, best of luck to the heritage folks, gradually restoring the line!

Only thing I wish is that their sites were a bit more active. They’d have a bit more traction in my opinion if they had some more online media presence. The trust website while nice looks like it hasn’t been updated in awhile, and the trust Facebook has a single post in the last year. There is another Facebook though that is more active.

Lovely video not too far from me. Well done.

I must go down to the sea again, to the lonely sea and the sky. I left my vest and socks there. I wonder if they're dry? Spike Milligan. :D

Yes, that would have made an amazing heritage railway! Perfect fit for beautiful Southwold. Alas, not to be 😢

Absolutely fantastic video! Thank you!

Another excellent piece of work, very informative. I’d never heard of this line until this video came about so now I’m better informed. Sadly this line looks like it closed due to lack of sufficient funds and little use of the line, a seemingly good idea that didn’t pan out. Thanks again for your hard work and time involved.

This was well worth the wait and many thanks for all the time and effort this must have & it should definitely reopen as an attraction i highly doubt that this will happen though i have brought you a coffee to say thanks😀

Thank you once again for another wonderful, informative and evocative film. Personally i would like to see all the old railways still with us!. I have never really read much about this railway, compared to the L&B or the Welsh narrow gauge ones, thanks again

Good evening absolutely brilliant video so very interesting i really enjoy the history of the railway that you have visited the hard work you put into is fantastic so very enjoyable 😊

Really enjoyed this. I’m gonna be visiting the Wirral Way tomorrow. One of my favourite disused railways.

Delightful, and still so much to be seen and enjoyed.

No4 "Wenhaston" was a Manning Wardle not Sharp Stewart

I think this film deserves a John Betjeman Award?! 🧐

Have walked some of this line, lovely area, great video!

Thanks for the great video, I've been a resident of Norwich since 87/88 - 2010 and 2022 - present day and in the last year I've learned so much about Norwich's railways! I only thought Norwich had 2 stations until I discovered Victoria, which is on the direction of the former Brazen Gate, and walking down the Lakenham Way you can see all the rail bridges in close detail from that period. Also, the station close to Whitlingham was the scene of the Thorpe Railway Disaster, which has a commemorative plaque near the sight down Girlings Lane. Also, on Marriotts Way, a short walk after the station is a bridge that saw a disaster as well! Plenty of interesting facts and a lot of other hidden stations as you continue down the Way.

Looking at the dmu leaving Cambridge with BR blue livery, full yellow fronts, and the BR logos (as well as the unfortunate fumes!) there is a "within living memory" element for those of us entering retirement age.

What a lovely line with a coastal gem at the end. Thank you for this evocative portrayal.

History lost forever thank you.👍👍👍👍👍🦘

Well, everyone else beat me to giving you accolades about this very well presented and produced video of this obscure little branch line. I thank you because it actually added life to my Middleton Press book of the Southwold Railway! Thanks again😀👍🏻

Amazing production values as usual from your channel. Many thanks for the enjoyment you give us. Regards, Robert.
