The viaduct you walked across looked in such good condition albeit over 120 yrs old! - not like the concrete in use recently that has had to be reinforced or removed. I appreciate you separating the video into parts to accommodate the adverts! They used to intrude mid sentence often or not. Thanks Paul!

To me a viaduct is a beautiful piece of architecture silhouetted against the background. They are a picture waiting to be painted. Thank you Paul for sharing.👍

A super railway explore, Paul. Very impressive viaduct, and in great condition. A very enjoyable adventure. More please! Take care. Ron.🙂👍

Viaduct, yes please. I love these lost railway walks, it's amazing what you spot.

Another lovely video, Paul. Thankyou

Astonishing good condition of 120 year-old Derrington viaduct - testimony to the skills of those who constructed this remarkable concrete structure. So nice to see it open for walkers and cyclists, but sad there is no access at Holsworthy. The silver lining perhaps, is the campaign to reopen the line, although apart from the cost, there are likely to be objections from landowning interests along the way. Very enjoyable video of a beautiful part of North Devon. Thank you.

Wonderful to see railways turned to trails...we have some nice ones here in Nova Scotia. Makes for some marvelous walking!

Hi Paul another nice railway walk video 👌👌

Nice sharing friend❤. Thank you 🌸🌺🌼

An interesting video Paul. Enjoyed all the info and seeing the route too. Certainly would like to ride the trail at some point.

The viaducts are so lovely to see and amazing how they are in such good condition. Loved seeing the area and hearing the history and factors impacting where the railway went, and the birds around as well. It looks like a great place for a stroll. Great work, Paul!

Hello Paul - greetings from Poland A really lovely video of the walk along the old railwat track. Not much to see of the railway itself except those two magnificent viaducts. The idea of reopening part of the line to bude seems to be a great idea. However, I'm not too sure this will happen because of rights of way and land ownership etc.

Interesting detail about the locals/natives' pronunciation of Holsworthy Paul. I've lived in Devon for nigh on 40 years(albeit not in West Devon) but have not come across the native pronunciation before. I do find these details interesting, so thank you for including it in your video.

Very enjoyable & informative video, thank you. I have walked many of our disused railway trackbeds but not in North Devon, something I must remedy. While I understand the economic case for many Beeching closures, it astonishes me that even back then it was thought a good idea to remove railway access to so many popular seaside resorts along the coast of south west England.

Hi Paul, A lovely walk along the line. I wonder if it will be reopened it does seem to make sense and would get a lot of traffic off the roads. The second viaduct was a joy to see especially as you didn't know if anything remained. It's probably a harder job to get the land ownership sorted than restoring the viaduct!! Interesting to hear about the breed of cattle giving name to the walk. In the Cadiz region you will find a similar breed down on the Bolonia beach, look it up!! I spotted the sign for Dartmoor boots from "German and sons" here German is a first name and pronounced as Herman, which is a German name I think .... I'll leave it there this comment is getting too confusing!! Have a great weekend!!

this line is about 30 mins away from me, nice to see some of my local places online also holsworthy has a very good model shop, simons trains

What a great film Paul, nice walk with your trade mark research and careful filming. Fascinating area. Don't know how you found the dry weather, have you got a direct line to the man upstairs. Great stuff. Ron
