Evidence remains in a few places of the colliery that once operated on the site of Rothwell Country Park. Here, rails can still be seen embedded into the concrete surface of the tipping yard, where coal was transferred from colliery wagons to mainline trains.
They're already tearing up the temporary balloon loop at Positivgatan. Tramline closed south of Axel Dahlström this weekend, on Monday trams will be running from the new station at Frölunda torg. They're busy laying the rails. The station will still be a construction site for many more weeks.
Here is one of the views of Matanzas that have stayed with me through the years. I've never felt happier getting my knees dirty anywhere else than I did on these old train rails.
When I think of Matanzas I think of bridges.
During my Hostling Tour of locomotive 611 at the Strasburg Railroad, one of the things I was able to catch a glimpse of was the shaking of the grates to drop the ashes into the ash pan below. I caught it as most of it was already finished.....as it happens pretty fast. Still quite a neat thing to see on a cold wet Spring morning.

The evidence of our industrial heritage is all but gone now. There are little bits and pieces left like these gate posts at a pedestrian crossing over where the Slow and Dirty once ran from Bournemouth to Bath. They were made from old rails as you can see. The kissing gates were made from wood and metal bands curved like a barrel.
Rifles, Rails & History: Steam Back to the North and South” at Wooton Park on the shore of beautiful Lake Dora in Tavares.
A reminder of the past, remnants of the former Peasmarsh Junction, where the Guildford - Horsham Direct Railway line to Cranleigh left the Portsmouth Direct Line.
Taken on a backroad somewhere in Colorado in the early '80s. There is a sharp dropoff just at the end of the tracks that head off away from the camera. Where they went to I have no idea. I was surprised to find the crossbucks still in place. It looks like there was also a pedestrian path crossing the tracks.
