Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal: Just 13 days after my last picture [[76397]], and the day after the A5 was reopened after a 48 hour closure, here is the 30 ton prestressed concrete deck. There is a narrow (one truck size) underbridge on the East (right) side, towards the M1; embankments on both sides need to be completed.

Harrington: The station with a hump, well Harrington was where the hump was developed to save having to raise the whole platform to allow better access to the train. The southbound platform is seen in January 2018 with the hump just beyond the footbridge.

Haymarket Goods: The curved loading platform at Haymarket Goods has seen decades of development all around it, perhaps because it provided a daylight gap in the absence of a road here. It has recently been scraped of its vegetation exposing the granite setts so maybe somebody has plans.

Skibbereen: The CB&SCR platform side of Skibbereen station building is on the left of this picture - with the plant growing out of it. The nearer building is a post-closure addition and both now form part of a garage. View looks south towards Baltimore with the trackbed built over in the distance. Some 60 years ago the photographer would have been standing in the loop line at this station which was open from 1877 to 1961. At the rear of the station building was the platform for the narrow gauge Schull and Skibbereen Railway which operated between 1886 and 1947.
