  1. Would love to see a J21, J26/7, G5 and the A5 and 3mt 2-6-0 mentioned above. Would set a NE region modeller up for life! Also a 20T P7 hopper wagon and a V1 brakevan would be great too. Not asking for much ;)

  2. Edwardian

    unfortunately St Peters was badly damaged in an arson attack a few weeks back. It was due to be converted to flats. The forcett viaduct was completely demolished in the late 70s or early 80s even the abutments were removed! (The one visible from the A67 is the east tees viaduct with a matching west tees viaduct further upstream.) The embankment leading up to it is still there with a neat cattle creep which now provides access to the teesdale way from gainford. Opposite st peters is the entrance to the old section of the A67 that leads to some cottages known as forcett cottages that were railway owned and from there is a public footpath that follows the course of the line back to forcett junction.
