Farnworth Tunnel

A view over the work site at the south end of Farnworth Tunnel on 31 October 2015. Since my last visit the TBM has completed it's task and much of the plant has been cleared although there are still several tasks to be completed before the track is laid. For the moment services continue to use the single line through the Down tunnel like the pair of Class 150s that are passing behind the sleeper screen.
