A DAY OUT AT KEW GARDENS LONDON
B-17 Crash Site Video
Video of the crash site of a B-17 on June 13, 1944 that mistook Laramie, WY for Fort Collins, CO and crashed into a mountain near Crown Point in Northern Colorado. View the site this way instead of hiking in 8 miles to see it. 40.61235, -105.6333 This is actually an accidental video because the camera got into a weird video capture mode while it was also taking photos. That's why you see the zooming in and out quickly and photo frames captured. It's kind of cool though, even so. Enjoy!

Trains at Huddersfield - 17/09/2016
Filmed on 17/09/2016. Arriving at the final station of the day along the Leeds to Manchester mainline, welcome to Huddersfield (Season 3 Episode 65)
This had to be the final station sadly as this was because there was quite a few drunken heads on trains and at some parts of the platform. It was disappointing but at the same time, was thinking about the safety of myself and others as well.
We still got a good variety as we see trains heading for a variety of destinations including: Leeds, Wakefield Westgate, Manchester Piccadilly/Airport, Liverpool Lime Street, York, Middlesbrough, Scarborough, Newcastle and services from Selby as well.
It was mixed traffic and stint to be honest but got chatting to a local train enthusiast who has seen massive traffic but was well worth talking to him. One train we did miss that morning was the Northern Belle with two DRS class 68's on it but never mind.
The next video is a nice train ride between Huddersfield and Stalybridge on a 156 Sprinter unit with their local stopping services to Manchester Victoria.
