Powderhall Loop

For (presumably) non-rail related reasons a hole is being dug under the disused Powderhall branch south of the site of the waste plant. This has required removal of the rails. Given that there's no doubt that the branch is permanently closed I was surprised to see that the rails were later replaced. View look north from the Dryden Street bridge.
