Much like what’s (probably) going to happen to the massive, listed airship sheds (hangars) at Cardington, which are gradually being totally surrounded by housing. Some of the houses will be in near-perpetual shadow and such is the condition of one of the sheds, during storms some of its pieces have been known to fly off. So won’t be long before they’re deemed to be a safety hazard, too expensive to maintain, an eyesore and generating health conditions due to lack of sunlight! Didn’t something similar happen to the Stewartby brickworks chimneys which recently came down, even though they were listed too?

Evening all, does anyone have any more photos to show how the work is progressing? Much appreciated!

Does anyone know if the landfill trains to Calvert will still run once HS2 opens?

Will the old platform be removed?

Great shots. What’s going to happen to the old bridge?

Great photo, shame the platforms had to go

Is there an online version to see?

Great pics. Will the existing bridge at Mursley be demolished? If yes, why can’t it be re-used like many of the other bridges in the area?

Good to see that the original pillars are being used!

I'm originally from the Bedford area but have been up in the North East of England for 30+ years. The rate of house building round here is also amazing. Genuine talk (and some action!) of reopening lines too.

Does anybody have any pictures of work elsewhere along the line?
