RMweb Gold phil_sutters Posted November 30, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) This sort of sums up Dad's passions - the Church and railways - only pity it wasn't a GWR scene. The other thread is about unusual trackwork, which I don't class this as. More interesting trackwork, please.

Bardon Hill when we used to go there regularly, it really is as rough as it looks in the photo with odd cambers and the gradient going back up to the Quarry on the other side of the A511 main road. Some of my colleagues have had locos roll away through the catch points, one almost went down the bank into the stream at the bottom...! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Metr0Land Posted December 1, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) It's quiet here again. Somewhere else that's quite quiet. Feb2003 There is an actual train on The Cob in the haze as well. Another wildcard or maybe something ecclesiastical but don't forget there aren't men of sufficient faith in Canterbury.

Rivercider Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Here is Parson Street station in South Bristol, class 101 Met-Cam set B821 coasts through the empty platforms working the 14.30 Weston-super-Mare to Bristol Temple Meads. 3/2/81 At this date only the station only saw 5 trains a day calling Monday to Saturday, whereas the current timetable shows 40 trains a day Monday to Friday, and figures just released by the ORR show over 145,000 journeys in the year 2016/17. And the next photo will be of a little used station, cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
