    It’s a walkway not a platform. It’s now a requirement for new bridges to have one. We couldn’t afford a double track bridge like the original, nor would there be an operational need for one.

    I have another photograph which provides an interesting comparison to that 1964 shot taken at Corfe Castle. Here is a very similar angle of 30053, this time taken at Harmans Cross, with 31806 approaching with a two coach driver experience...

  4. Bluenosejohn vond FearOfManchester's post leuk in het topic Peak Rail General Discussion.

    The VLR scheme is very much still in play, there are very few things peak rail can do with the reach and resources they have, what they can do is establish a visible presence on the ground in buxton, a lot of things are changing in the town and...

    [ATTACH] This was posted the other day on Facebook. Nothing changes - S160 being worked on, 80135 in bits, West Country boiler being overhauled, and piles of crap everywhere.

  11. Bluenosejohn vond Kirk Oswald's post leuk in het topic Peak Rail General Discussion.

    Sad but true. I've lost count of the number of relaunches of this proposal. If a single mile of track had actually been built every time it's been resurrected they wouldn't just have reached Buxton by now - they would have reached Manchester...

  12. Bluenosejohn vond Sheff's post leuk in het topic Peak Rail General Discussion.

    This has been rumbling on for years. To me it’s very much in the WIBN category. It’s not made it into any of the strategic rail reviews, even at stage 1 feasibility study level iirc. Disappointing for those of us who were in at the launch of...
