Smile Hi from Leicester

Just found this railway forum,I have been using many urban exploration forums to hunt down railway stuff.Now I've found one just for railways.

My main interests are the Great Central railway and The Great Northern Railway especially through the midlands.I also have a love for the Leicester to Swannington Railway.

Railway tunnels is where the interest first started for me.

Thanks

So I presume you've made the pilgrimage to the GCR Chesterfield tunnel and the LD&ECR tunnels at Bolsover

Got lots of bits around here that BR allowed Beeching to ruin
