Tanfield Railway in the snow

[paulosio]

Used to spend a lot of time there with my dad when I was around 10. Can still remember them building the new roof on the main engine shed, the foot bridge at Andrew's house station and the signal box at Marley hill.

I got to drive a couple of the diesel locos (No.2 and Ruston) around occasionally which was always fun.

Feeling quite nostalgic watching this.

Being a short walk away from were I live, I remember it starting up. One day before it opened, I and my wife were walking near and were privileged to be invited into the main engine shed, where voluntee engineers were working renovating old engines in readiness to haul passengers.

Thanks - we don't get much snow here in the 'south'! Glad to see the bleak North lives up to its image. I do appreciate a man with a tripod! Noticed Bob with his woolly hat and the festive fire in the 'box. Quite Christmassy!.
