Some footage of the Class DMU's arriving at the stations along the route from Bishop Auckland West to Stanhope. There is some rare footage as on Stanhope Show day the train travelled to a specially erected platform at Unthank Park
Myself an the mother are going to be moving back to the north east (currently in Colne, Lancashire, opposite the railway station, so I see many Class 142s across the way!!), and the first thing I want to do is visit the Weardale railway, it just goes to show that with the right people, old, disused or dismantled railways can be put back into use, something that the Colne-Skipton link rebuild needs... :)
