Hope

Looking east over the very snow bound station at Hope in the Peak District in March 2018. Youngest son & family approach the footbridge challenge for getting over to the uncleared Sheffield bound platform to await the train to start the return journey to York. On our arrival in Sheffield early PM we were fortunate that the first train able to run west through the valley was just about to leave. The walk into and back from Hope village was difficult due to waist deep snow mounded on the footpaths. It was very much a day in hope of getting there, and back.
