Great
Central Railway |
|
|
|
|
This railway was the last mainline railway to
be built. It ran from London to Nottingham. Sadly it was the
first to be closed. Thankfully part of the Great Central Railway
survives today running as a heritage line between Leicester and
Loughborough. Recently part of the eight miles of track has been
doubled and it is an exciting experience when two steam hauled trains
pass each other. You can find lots of information about this railway at
www.gcrailway.co.uk My
pictures were taken on the 1st & 2nd January 2006.
The locomotives operating were BR Standard
78019 and GCR 63601. |
