As an HM Guard I have carried out section K in this box on 2 occasions.
Once with Stalybridge tanks and another time with an Ashburys to HM job, routed via India Rubber Junction.
Circa 1984.

Just left of the bridge, where the tamper is filmed, there was what appeared to be a wooden water tower there. It was hard up against the railway but next to a factory/warehouse building. It burned down in the 80s or 90s. Was that a water tower for locomotives or did it not have anything to do with the railways? Do you know? Thanks.

The sound of diesel locomotives and the sight of mixed rolling stock is almost sexual. Brilliant video. Ta.

This is terrific stuff! Thanks for uploading. Shame it wasn't 1981 instead but you can't have everything.

Hmm... You are correct with this comment, Platting's up signal was indeed slotted with Collyhurst. Being a section signal, it was also locked by the block but it was still technically Plattings signal. Looks like we were both right here. Besides, Collyhurst always left the slots in the off position anyway... Those naughty boys...

My memory serves me wrong then LOL.
the strange bit ,I thought was the system between platting and collyhurst,didnt collhurst have to give the slot to platting before platting could clear their peg even with a line clear
Ah Park 1....bet you could hear the stone trains climbing up the hill from Ashburys way before we offered them on from Park no.2.
