How did you manage that?
I only uploaded it this morning, and I haven't had an email to say it's been accepted yet.

Glad you liked it. I thought I'd film it in the uphill direction, though old railway lines don't have much incline anyway. It could have been longer, but when I stopped to change batteries in the camera the mount slipped and I couldn't be bothered to dismantle it to fix it

It's better than the High Peak Trail, because that has lots of gates and road crossings, on the Tiss you just go.... and go.... and go.....

For the techies amongst us, it was a 63 minutes video, and with Handbrake set at 5000 kbps the file came to 2.19 GB.

They were quick then. I think the length is good and the signal box is a nice stopping point, Uphill is good to as it is good to have the resistance. There is a 6% grade in there for a short bit too. it would be good to actually ride it..

I did the devon coast to coast which is on railway lines, this year, wish I had taken the camera as its spectacular too.

I am pleased handbrake worked the quality looked good for 5000kbps. What sort of camera are you using?

I don't remember a 6% bit. I wonder how that happened.
I use a SJ4000 - a GoPro clone, cos I'm a tight b******d.
