Ladmanlow: Starting from Whaley Bridge the incline of the same name followed by the Shallcross and Bunsall inclines lifted the Cromford and High Peak Railway up to roughly the 1250ft contour, which it followed as far as Hurdlow where the first incline descending towards the east was situated. This view at Stanley Moor looks north towards Ladmanlow, which remained open for goods until 1954. The trackbed is surfaced, although access is restricted due to it being within the Health and Safety Executive site.
Ardwick Junction: Aerial view of the line between Manchester Piccadilly and Ardwick Junction. With less than two weeks until a £7.9m upgrade to six lines serving Manchester Piccadilly station, passengers are being advised to plan their journeys in advance of a nine-day railway closure.
Eastfield Shed: Eastfield's 'Death Row' is the venue for Thornton's J39 0-6-0 64790 on 27th October 1962. An N15 0-6-2T is next in line.
Embankment: As is well known, the LU 1972 Bakerloo Line stock is the oldest on the London Underground and, against all the odds, has soldiered on to well in their 50s as they continue to shake, rattle and roll in 2026. This example is seen departing from Embankment with a northbound Bakerloo short working to Stonebridge Park, at 15.18 on Saturday, 17th January 2026.
Appleby East: The signal box at Appleby East photographed in August 1967. At this time the line was still in use as far as Merrygill Quarry (beyond Kirkby Stephen East) until November 1975 when it was cut back to Warcop.
Belasis Lane: Passing the signal box at Belasis Lane, on the way to Port Clarence, the view from a DMU on the RCTS North Eastern No.4 railtour on 28th April 1979. The tour from Leeds visited lines in West and North Yorks, including Skinningrove, and Cleveland.
Murrayshall Siding: View east at Murrayshall siding. The siding and transhipment point with the tramway on the right. There is a raised bank in the right of this view, this is not a cutting. The River Forth is off to the left.
St Helens Central: The rebuilt St Helens Central certainly promotes the towns glass industry. 323217 calls on an all stations service between Lime Street and Wigan North Western on 21st January 2026. The busy station sees the half hourly stoppers supplemented by hourly semi-fasts running between Blackpool and Lime Street and less regular TPE trains to and from Glasgow.
