mjshearer :

I have a feeling Francis is our generations David Attenborough. His voice is just something different!

Gary Hall :

He is sooo infectious, I know bugger all about trains and have no interest in them. Until this guy came along, i just can’t swipe him off. He is such a fab nerd

harv.man07 :

God i love an abandoned railway

Bridal Print :

studied engineering with him in Manchester....he's nothing like this character 😂😂😂 it's all acting

Desdemonata 🇪🇺🇬🇧 :

Liking the tie. Just the right amount of pizzazz

Öaken :

Yh and I live right next to it.

EdIm1 :

You are a beautiful human

MiserableLizard :

Great video thanks Francis. A valuable forgotten line is the track from Fleetwood to Thornton Cleveleys and to Poulton. The steam reservoir still exists, owned by Fisherman’s Friends. Transported a lot of fishermen in the 1800-1900’s.

Silverspeed32 :

The respect shown to these elderly people and their memories is admirable - well done

Paul :

I’d watch any documentary narrated by Francis Bourgeois 👌

Minesafreedomway :

Go to baynards tunnel between Guildford and Horsham I believe

You’ll have to come to USA, and review Saluda Grade. Steepest railroad east of the Rockies. It’s were I raised. Saluda, North Carolina USA

marc_mib :

I wish you could do a whole video showing us the trains across Canada and the United States. Maybe one day, you could even show us how to travel across Canada by train. Since you love trains so much, I’d also love to see you explore trains around the world and share even more fascinating information with us. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge. What a fascinating marvel of engineering! 🚆❤️

Becca :

Ahh Lyme Regis Mention ❤️I love Cannington Viaduct

Caleb Packo :

Blitzon :

LynnRailUK :

M1sfit_Casts :
