On Saturday i decided to give the new northern explorer ticket a go and tried to get as many services in as possible and decided to try and vlog it. I managed ten services and got from East Yorkshire to Chester, Liverpool, Wigan, Bolton, Blackburn, Leeds and Doncaster. Not bad for 13 hours of travel.

The link is below.

Please be kind as i do very few vlogs and I've not quite honed the art of it as yet. Still practicing.

Nice little video that :) Sorry to hear of your ticketing issues (that might get others to watch!) but you definitely did well.

Maybe next time investigate still getting your money’s worth but trying more Lancashire and Cumbria? Still a long day out but I have a sneaky feeling you’d enjoy that more than going all the way to the extreme west end of the Northern network :)

Thank you for taking a look. You have made a good suggestion and heading more north on fewer trains would be a nice change. Good idea and my planning is starting now
