The times they are a changing

Hardly worth the effort of scanning this very poor image from the dusty draw, but hopefully it will tease a pin sharp masterpiece from Mr Whiteley's collection, probably of an 8F in full sun at this classic position.

 

Mainly posted to record the changes since 1968; so of note is the sad demise of the splendid curved row of cottages and also a few floors of the mill. On the good side the first arch of the viaduct still hasn’t collapsed.

 

For the record 73069 and 73050 head over Lydgate viaduct with the second SVRS/MRTS special on 27th April 1968.
