Light up the way.

Light up the way.
A beautiful winter look at my very local linear park. This used to be the railway track route from Oldham to Delph, many years back known as the Delph Donkey line. Opened in 1849 by the LNWR (London & North Western railway) connecting my local town of Oldham to the main Huddersfield to Manchester line. A mixture of steam engines ran on here including the famous Fowler 7F’s and Austerity 2-8-0’s. It was closed in 1963 and turned into a cycle & walkway in 1964. As you can see, it can be a real beauty.

Enjoy full screen.

Thanks Maurice. Yes it is good to see something not only reclaimed but a park that was not there in the days of rail.

Keep safe. Herb

Superb, Herb. I presume you mean line park not liner!
As children, we played on the recently disused Derby to Manchester line before it had been designated as a public right of way and it still had all the sleepers in place and the tunnels (Monsal Dale, etc,) were spooky and dangerous but great fun!

Thanks Andy. As you might guess, spelling is not my strong point. I meant to write linear not liner nor line -more likely though simply a typo as my typing is as bad as my spelling and grammar :)
I have walked in the Monsal Dale a few times -and along the great Monsal trail too. My wife leaned to ride a cycle on there. Didn't go through any tunnels though.

Wow, 3 years ago today! The light is lovely and it certainly is a beauty! It's good to see many of the old railway lines made into foot and cycle paths. I love the sight and sound of the old steam trains though. Take care and have a good day. Rosa.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Good to see you Rosa. An eyesore made good. As it happens, this very path has been up-graded slightly over the last weeks with a new path covering and many of these trees thinned out, so this photo might never be repeated. I like steam too as I might demonstrate next week.

Keep safe. Herb

Oooh, this is just magical Herb................the combined effect of that gorgeous light, the snow and the "tunnel" is trees is perfect. Beautifully captured sir!

The cycle and walkway would be by courtesy of Doctor Beeching I assume!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Ah Keith it seems like I have pleased you on a number of days this week with my snow and light pictures. I am very happy about that - Yes Doctor Beeching has a lot to answer for.
