Ghost Train: Bedford to Northampton (Lost Railways Animation)
Фильм және анимация
An animated past vs present look at the lost railway line from Bedford to Northampton! #bedford #bedfordshire #northampton #northamptonshire #railway #disused #beeching
The Bedford-Northampton line was a branch of the Midland Railway which served stations in three counties: Northampton and Horton in Northamptonshire, Olney in Buckinghamshire and Turvey and Bedford in Bedfordshire, England. Opened in 1872, the intermediate stations closed to passengers in 1962, leaving a small section between Northampton and Piddington station to remain open until 1981 for the purposes of the Ministry of Defence establishment. The track remains down on another small section of the line between Northampton and Brackmills. The reopening of the line has been proposed by the Bedfordshire Railway & Transport Association.

Thanks! I am hoping to bring to life all the lost lines eventually! suggestions welcome.
Enjoyed that, thanks
Thank you so much for sharing this. I've always been intrigued by the history of this line, especially since I live nearby and have encountered it before. Interestingly enough, I stumbled upon your channel today and then searched for this line, coincidentally, it was uploaded less than two weeks ago.
My father was a goods guard based at Northampton in the 1950s then we emigrated to Australia in 1956 he must have seen the end of various railway lines! Which happened in australia as well!
Every year local community groups say they've found a feasible way to reopen this route (which is needed now more than ever as the 41 isn't sufficient for public transport), and every year it goes nowhere.
Omg amazing! Are you going to do Peterborough to Northampton via Oundle? 😊😊
