Before steam locomotives ever existed, engineers were already reshaping the hills of County Durham on a staggering scale.

Hidden in the woods and beneath modern streets are the remains of a forgotten railway network built entirely for horse-drawn wagons. Massive embankments. Lost river crossings. Deep cuttings. Hidden tunnels. Even the traces of bridges that once carried coal high above valleys.

Most people walk straight past these places without realising what they are looking at.

This new Rails and Revolutions episode explores the dramatic surviving engineering of the North East’s ancient wooden waggonways, a transport system that helped lay the foundations for the modern railway age.

After 3 days of filming, the next history video can finally go into the editing stage. What could I be upto this time? Hope to have it out this Saturday.

Just found a remote site to make a video about. Downside is that it could be dangerous making this video (which I think I will make when I’ve completed the one currently in production), so I may need the help of my old friend here!

Now available to our Patreons and Channel Members is an adventure where we drive from Edmunbuyers to Grove Rake Mine in the Northern Pennines, England, and look at some of the surface and underground history along this stunning route. Enjoy!

Filming the next video tomorrow, but in the meantime, continuing work on the next video for our Patreons and Channel Members, which has turned into a much larger project than I initially planned lol. Should get a video with a difference though!

Out on a quiet stretch of moorland, something doesn’t add up.

From a distance, it looks natural… a deep scar carved into the hillside by time itself. But the closer you get, the more the landscape begins to feel… unsettled. The ground dips where it shouldn’t. The earth looks as though it’s been disturbed, pulled apart, almost hollowed out from below.

What could leave a mark like this?

This isn’t just a walk across open countryside. It’s a slow uncovering of a hidden story… one that stretches far beneath your feet, where something once reshaped the land from the inside out.

And the strangest part?

This place was never meant to exist at all.
