Rumblestripe Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Some great photos on here. I'll just quietly link you to two of my Galleries The first one is Garsdale http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/gallery/album/835-garsdale/ And the second is Kirkby Stephen http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/gallery/album/823-kirkby-stephen-west/ Both sets were taken when I used to cross the Pennines for work and I could "arrange" a few free minutes photographizing en route so there is no rolling stock in sight but there are some rather lovely snowy shots. They are just some of the shots I took so if anyone wants a specific view PM me and I'll have a look to see if there are some shots covering your interest. Hope they are useful.

RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted April 1, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 1, 2013 Yes, some really lovely photos in there! I particularly like the contrast in the Dandry Mire photos. The first one looks quite inviting. The snow one, incredibly bleak. Thanks for posting these. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Reorte Posted May 13, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 13, 2014 Just seen these - and it seems that the turnout into the down siding at Kirkby Stephen has got moved at some point. Aargh! Wonder if I'll be able to lift and move what I've laid... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Reorte Posted May 13, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 13, 2014 Cheers, don't expect to see anything in a hurry though. It's taken me a couple of years to get to the point I have reached, and just started pulling up again last night (think I can get away with moving a couple of turnouts, but I'm half tempted to start again because the curve vanished somewhere between drawing up the plan and laying the track). I've also only got a 6' section, working on a "hopefully I'll have more room in the future" tactic. I've got a few photos but I've not uploaded them because they don't show anything much more than has already been posted in this thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium macgeordie Posted January 7, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 7, 2015 Interesting to see they have now installed the Midland style lamp standards. I've seen a photo where these were fitted in the early 1900's but they were missing in the 1950's and 60's which is the period I chose for my own layout. The bridge was installed in 2000 which threw me when I went to photograph it as part of my research. Nice photos, I haven't been back up there for a few years so it's nice to see it again, thanks for posting the pics. Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Gwinnett Posted January 7, 2015 Author Share Posted January 7, 2015 The magic of modern cameras means the photos don't do justice to what a dark evening it was. Heavy rain showers too. As I was alone apart from the signalman much of the time, it was very atmospheric! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
