My late father was a crane driver at the old freightliner site. He recalls the story of a box that opened and a drum fell out killing a man. The barrel was full of golf ball sized ball bearings. He mounted one on wood as a memorial I think we still have it somewhere

My brother and l used to ‘spot’ at Grangetown. After a while there we’d walk the ‘black path’ to South Bank station. So many freight trains. Many varieties of locos. Sentinals busy shunting in the steel works. Well it was 1974!

Fantastic. I used to live some way to the South of Teesside and seeing the Eston Hills, knowing the A66 and Parkway are not too far away, the smoke from the Cooling Tower at ICI Wilton was just great. I have a free-lanced HO scale American Model Railroad based on this area. Please keep these videos coming.

It ain’t smoke from a cooling tower. It is STEAM. Thought the name would have gave you a clue

Ok, Condensate then. I have done plenty of Engineering work at Wilton and back in those days, Middlesbrough was nick-named, 'Smoggi Town'. @@TC-qd1zw

I kept waiting for the train to actually t-bone a dock, you know, like to collide with one, but it never happened, so I’m off to go watch villager news. Bye!

@armandoperez7967 2 ай бұрын

A real shame, not a train to be seen, just like here in North America! I do like the grade crossing protection! Better than here! Is this in Great Britain?

@armandoperez7967 2 ай бұрын

What makes me even sadder is that I remember many lines that I got to see and enjoy are gone forever. Some of them have been turned into hiking biking trails and in some cases you would never know that a rail line was ever there.

The railway is so bland and bare now isn't ? Back in the 60s and 70s there would be sidings everywhere ,boxes , wagons , semaphores and even some trains !! Even in the 80s ! Now it's just bare and featureless !

@gainsbourg66 2 ай бұрын

Worse than that, it's ugly. Nothing to see but grey railings, grey pylons or red and yellow objects in toy town colours. All the chracter and charm gone. Beautiful old brick buildings, chimneys and walls - demolished.

@neiloflongbeck5705 2 ай бұрын

All those low capacity wagons sitting idly in sidings (in the 1960s they took average of 11.6 days between loads).

All machinery now next step will be driverless trains???..technology has ruined the love for trains now..80s and 90s were my era some 70s well late 70s..I still go and watch the odd train but my dream now is to start a model railway and run the trains that I hold tight to my childhood...and i will have sidings and the buildings to boot!!!

What traffic comes in here ? Tesco containers ?

@Sam_Green____4114 2 ай бұрын

Something is trickling out of the wagons into the middle of the track after the first level crossing ,on the line entering into the terminal, so I'm guessing some sort of sand or mineral comes in, in bottom discharge wagons !?

No wonder these drivers keep striking for more money. I wouldn’t what a boring job sitting there looking at an empty landscape. Same thing day in day out. Definitely not for me and they deserve every penny. They get.

12 HR days and more with nowhere to have breaks or go to the toilet. Can't doze off in front of a 1000 ton train at 60mph. It's a brutal job worse than truck driving.
