In fading light on 6th January 2022, a picture taken from the Cricklade extension head of steel showing the demolished Farrfield Lane bridge in the distance. No one owns up to demolishing it and the work took place in the early 1970s. All the relevant authorities deny any knowledge of allowing it so it was done unofficially by a Mr X no doubt, which does not explain the JCBs involved or the lovely coating of tarmac. It is hoped to run passenger trains up to the terminus during 2022.
