Tees Valley Historic Railway Trail (Part 1/2 - Archive 2020)

This video is a Youtube Reupload from 2020.

The Tees Valley Railway was an 8+3⁄4-mile branch railway line that ran between Barnard Castle on the South Durham & Lancashire Union Railway line between Bishop Auckland and Kirkby Stephen East, and Middleton-in-Teesdale via three intermediate stations Cotherstone, Romaldkirk and Mickleton.

The line closed in 1964 and is now a fabulous way to explore Teesdale on foot, cycle or horseback. There are amazing views along the entire route, passing picturesque villages and a patchwork of fields, dry-stone walls and mature hedgerow.

Part 1 starts at Barnard Castle and finishes at Romaldkirk.
