Manchester Ship Canal towpath and bridges

This alley runs between the new Boroughmuir High School and the road up to the bridge over the canal, allowing step-free access to the nearby canal towpath.

 

Improvised night shots, sitting the camera on top of some flat-topped railings to steady it for a long exposure.

The Calder & Hebble Canal at Gannys Lock - near Brighouse town centre

Having decided to go out and snap the northbound Whistler tour I couldn't believe my luck when, in the space of a few minutes, a southbound Shed crossed Dutton Viaduct to be followed shortly afterwards by this Tug. The Shed, snapped from the other side, never made the cut but I thought Tug had merit, especially seeing as they've been scarce along this stretch of the West Coast Mainline in recent times.

 

DB Cargo unit 60059 is doing the honours with the 8.47am Arpley Sidings - Tunstead Sidings (6H02) - it's nice to see a Tug on the River Weaver for a change!

bit of a crash landing

Under gloomy skies the last train to run the length of the Venice Branch in Manayunk, PA runs alongside the Manayunk Canal Towpath. The small 3-car train is on the way to Norfolk Southern's Falls Yard to drop the last of three empty tank cars from PaperWorks. The fate of the former Reading industrial branch line is currently up in the air but so far nothing has been filed for abandonment.

Took a wander along the towpath of the Kennet & Avon Canal at Pewsey Wharf. As the sun rose the lighting on the rising mist was beautiful. A joy to witness.

Coyote on the I&M Canal. This guy was a nice specimen, full winter coat and a nice stocky body. The early sunlight was just filtering through the trees. Perfect timing.

Angel to Victoria Park path.

The meadows of the River Cherwell seen from the towpath of the Oxford Canal, the morning mists lifting and just catching the low sun.

The Cherwell valley is a lovely rural area that stretches between Banbury and the Thames at Oxford. It has always been prone to flooding; the whole point of water-meadows; but they seem to flood earlier and longer every year.

 

I think they are now being encouraged to flood as many embankments are being breached so that the valley acts as one vast reservoir, holding back and slowing the water to protect low-lying Oxford downstream.

 

Probably off limits now for walking until the spring, although our springs are getting increasingly wet. My experience of wading through these floods about a mile further on has rather dampened my enthusiasm for getting stuck in the middle of nowhere wondering whether to turn back, or wade on!

390122 flashes by the dandelions catching the afternoon sunshine on the towpath of the Oxfod Canal near Shildon, 1H81 Euston to Piccadilly was the working.

Spent today walking in the sunshine. The towpath along the Black and White canal looked good enough to make a postcard. So I think I'll do that in the morning.

The Peak Forest Canal runs from Aston-Under-Lyne to Buxworth. The Upper and Lower sections are at different heights, separated by the flight of 16 locks at Marple

Taken from the towpath of the Peak Forest Canal at New Mills, Peak District, 10 minutes later we got soaked !
