Have you walked through Titchfield Park recently? The stone retaining wall for the GCR embankment is still there and will be for some time to come as there are now houses built on the old track bed.

Of Course i never got the geography right on that,so the line would continue over Quarry Lane and join the `main line`
I only knew a little of the railway system in Langwith,Langwith Junction & Shirebrook. I was a little nipper then LOL.
That why i want a time machine ,but there lots on the www i`m just happy that people took photos back then
Cheers Eagle
PS can you help me with my question on the `footplatemen forum`
