Shadow Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Howey, just south of Llandrindod wells Next :- From Streetview, Clue :- A mineral line that ends about 2kms to the west of this square. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Mineral line is, perhaps, a bit misleading. It's a freight line that ends at a river Wharf. Initially a Light railway, opened in 1906. Something big happened in 1974 in this area. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold martin_wynne Posted April 24, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Flixborough, north of Scunthorpe.

dagrizz Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Lots of railway in this square The footpath is not an old railway line. The steetview shot from the road rather gives the game away so another clue instead; the existing line in the square is freight and specials only.

dagrizz Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I've just found out (from another thread) that there are two passenger services each day over this line. Apologies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The disused lines are coming out of Seaton Junction, the in-service route is just north of Harringworth viaduct. Try this one. An early build that got its engineer into trouble.
