Cranley Gardens: The site of Cranley Gardens station, on the former GNR Alexandra Palace branch, seen from a no.134 bus crossing the old line on Muswell Hill Road, on 22nd April 2024. This closed in 1954 after almost becoming part of the LU Northern Line. The flats that stood on the site from the 1970s were demolished in 2023. Some kind of work is going on here now so it seems that the station site will eventually be covered up again by another building but for now is open to view. The entrance building was to the left where the railings now are; the bridge parapet survives.
Ardchyle Viaduct: View showing the C&O line approaching Ardchyle Viaduct from Luib, to the west. The distant signal for Killin Junction was on the left, where a fogman's hut remains along with the stump of the signal. On the right are the ruins of the settlement at Braval.
Guildford: USA 0-6-0T 30072 at Guildford Shed circa 1966. It later moved into preservation on the Worth Valley Railway.
Helmsdale: Helmsdale celebrates the 150th anniversary of the Far North Line.
Sowerby Bridge: The row of fifteen coal drops at Sowerby Bridge were in use from 1875 for around one hundred years. They are now a listed structure, seen here from the station approach road. The tracks at the top ran on timbers, which have now been cleared away. To the right of the drops two sets of buffers are still in situ, in a now wooded area alongside the station car park. 29th June 2024.
