Blasting up the Woodhead
Possibly the first train up this line for nearly a month 37218 and 37425 operate 3J50 09:59 York Thrall Europa to Selby via Stocksbridge and Barrow Hill. See climbing up the old Woodhead railway line from Neepsend to Hillsborough (Wadsley Bridge) just behind Wardsend Cemetery. The cemetery is something else holding nearly 30,000 graves most dating back to the early 20th century and with woodland now spreading amongst the graves as it is doing on the old track bed either side of the remaining single track.
