Video Description

The Settle and Carlisle Line is one of the most scenic railway lines in Britain. At 73 miles long it runs through the Yorkshire Dales and the North Pennines, through the counties of North Yorkshire and Cumbria. Built by the Midland Railway, It opened in 1875 for freight (and 1876 for passengers) so is celebrating its 150th annivesary - and it was about time I went for a ride and made a proper documentary about the line. The Station Inn has a live webcam of the Ribblehead Viaduct, here: https://www.thestationinnribblehead.com/webcam/ Also, my huge thanks to Les who was brilliant! He has his own Youtube channel here, and makes railway videos based around Carlisle: https://www.youtube.com/@UCK9n4O_k7yyytnebtYX0uTQ The Friends of Settle and Carlisle are here: https://www.foscl.org.uk/ The Settle and Carlisle Development Company are here: https://settle-carlisle.co.uk/ You can also join Memberships on this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd18OhMfRmjMjzSHP7Zrzmw/join
