So the track to the colliery is very steep and isn’t to passenger level standards, there’s also no useable platform there. In the other direction to Blythe Bridge the bridge is very tight and we have safety concerns should anyone put their head out. Also, there’s no passing loop to allow the engine to run around. Both of these would consume a lot more coal too.
Nice little video..
Hey Foxwood i would LOVE the line to go further than the two stops its a wonderful line with more distance on it so why not use it please.
