No tracks or anything there, just owned by the farmers now, so no chance of network rail ect. But thats what i was thinking about the digging FECK ME .......... A LAD FROM COUNTY DURHAM SCARED OF DIGGING .... GIVE YER HEAD A SHAKE YER FROM A MINING HERATIGE NEVER MIND DIGGING A FEW FEET FOR A FERRET !!! JEEZ LADS .. I SERVED MY APPRENTISHIP FERRETING SUCH PLACES AND ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE OF IT .... I WILL GIVE YOU LADS A TIP ...NOW PIN THEM EARS BACK NEVERMIND TRYING TO CRASH YER WAY THROUGH BRAMBLE AND BRASH TO THE HOLES . JUST SET THE RUNS , WE ALWAYS TIED OFF THE PEGS TO THE BRAMBLES ETC RATHER THAN TRY AND FIND A GOOD HOLD WITH THE PEG .... IT WORKS A TREAT .... ALL THE BEST DUCKWING Quote Link to post

The one 8,479 Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 'jarv5116' timestamp='1294265523' post='1861303'] Some of the holes on railway banks up ere are deep with holes that go on forever with hundreds holes. dont know whats like down yours? there needs be few of yese and need watch both sides ot the banks! One of the bankings i do is 600 yards long and the burrows run the lenght of it ,but not threw it we longnet the top then put 300 purse nets down and up to 18 ferrets .Had great results and used to get up to 50 rabbits in a session .Then the owner ran some cattle over it one winter and they filled in most of the holes still get a few but its never been the same . Never knock any permission back give the bankings a go Quote Link to post
