Dunford Bridge

Having just emerged from Woodhead tunnel, 76012 & 13 pass the platforms of the closed Dunford Bridge station as they head east on a rake of 16t mineral wagons. The stone building to the right - the base of a water tower - was a surviving remnant of the original station, which shut when the new Woodhead tunnel and track alignment opened in 1954. 30.12.1980.
