[easta007]

@ShaurntheSheep Yes. No 2 was recently put up for sale (I saw it in a advertisment in Steam Railway magazine). No 1 is on loan to the Colne valley railwaay in Essex.

I think the viaduct is called Lowgill and it was a line that diverged off the West Coast Mianline up in the Lakes. I stand to be corrected just in case

[UNSCForwardontodawn]

@Grecian81your right, i pass that viaduct every time i travel to and from college, about twice a month.

it's a shame really. if that line was still open, i could take a much more direct route to my college rather than having to go via manchester or birmingham.

Which railway is the viaduct on?
