Looking towards Hyde Road Junction on the former Fallowfield Loop line. The Northern end spur into what was Reddish TMD would have been directly behind me to the left hand side.
Apologies for the poor quality, after having these prints developed I soon learned that my camera had decided to 'jack' altogether. Included purely for historical interest.
DB Cargo class 66 locomotive 66150 stands at far as we can go due to the vegetation ahead, we are on the Garw Valley line that once was very busy as it served 4 major colleries, know as the Garw loop now and used as a run round facility for when freight trains are infrequently diverted via Tondu, away from the South Wales mainline and we've gone way past that loop.
This is UK Railtours excellent 'The Valley of the Witch’ railtour, the 1Z19 07.06 London Paddington-Onllwyn Washery via Tondu.

The last time i came this way was behind 37412 'Driver John Elliot' on Pathfinder Tours "The Glamorgan Freighter" from Tondu up the Garw Valley along this disused branch to Pontycmmer on the 2nd March 1996

Descending the famous Gata loops. Most of these roads are connected with dirt trails and you can take them instead of the tarmac if you are on a good 4x4 or a motorcycle without much luggage. This is a nice place to do some riding if you can find a place around here to stay.
This was too long to fit into my frame, so it had to be diagonal, and a tad looped! I'm not sure which Geometrid this is.

In the 1870's the Southern Pacific (Central Pacific) Railroad sought to link their rails in central California to those in Southern California. The path was blocked by the rugged Tehachapi Mountain range, which acts as an east-west barrier between Bakersfield and Los Angeles. Since construction directly south was impractical, the Southern Pacific Railroad decided to go southeast to Mojave, through the Tehachapi Pass. The summit at Tehachapi Pass was 4000'. Construction from Bakersfield to Caliente was somewhat routine, but from that point on the elevation going east rises quickly. From Caliente to the summit (now the City of Tehachapi) the rise is 2,735 feet. The maximum grade permitted was 2.2%. By routing the track alongside the slopes of the Tehachapi foothills, engineer William Hood could envision completing the task. However, just east of Keene, there was an apparently unsolvable problem. An increase in elevation of nearly 80 feet was required, unattainable using typical designs .
The problem was solved by constructing a unique loop. Going southeasterly from Keene, a train first passes through an entry tunnel. The track then does a complete counterclockwise loop, passing over the entry tunnel before continuing easterly. (See sketch below). The loop is sized to have a length adequate to achieve the needed gain in elevation. The result is a loop 3,799' long, with a typical diameter of about 1210 feet. By continuing to gain elevation throughout the loop, engineer Hood was able to make up the needed elevation (about 77' rise in the loop). With modern freight trains, often more than a mile long, the locomotive passes over (or under, depending upon direction) the final cars of its own train!
The entire track from Bakersfield to the summit was completed July 10, 1876. In all, in addition to the loop, there are 18 tunnels with a total length of 8,240'. There are 8,300
Pima County celebrated the completion of The Loop by hosting a celebration at Brandi Fenton Memorial Park on Saturday, March 17, 2018. Other celebrations were held at Kino Sports Complex.
On Sept. 17, Pima County officials broke ground on a wash bank protection project that also serves as an extension of The Loop.
