Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Railway line near Doddershall House. This railway line was once part of the Great Central Railway, which when it opened in 1899 was the last main line twin track railway to be built. The line ran between Sheffield, Nottingham and London Marylebone, see http://www.railwayarchive.org.uk/index.php. Much of the line was closed in 1966, but this single track stretch between Quainton Road behind the camera, and Claydon Junction about 6km away, remains. It is used by four freight trains a day from Brentford in London carrying containerised household waste to the landfill site at Calvert just before Claydon Junction, see 499234.
This photograph looking north-west is taken at the point where the footpath between the village of Quainton to the east, and Doddershall House to the west, crosses the line. |
