This is the old train station at White Top on the Creeper Trail / Ex-Norfolk and Western branch line. The railbed was where the gravel path is in front of the station. Just some history.

Well guys it seems that theres not much call for UK Diesel loco's so heres mine and was taken in the United Kingdom at Shirebrook and was a Colliery Locomotive and in the back ground is Shirebrook Colliery which was one of the best pits in the UK, sadly now closed like the rest of the mines in the UK.[i worked there]

Enjoy.......

Very interesting shot Ian. I know absolutely nothing about the rails in the UK so this is cool.
