Really nice shots. I hust love old rusty railwaylines going into the wood. Can you tell me where this place is?
 
oooooooooooooooooh excellent, I love old rail lines with the tracks still in place. :) Love the levers still being there as well.

There's a number of old rail lines around where we live, and me, Mendo and the 6 year old can usually be found walking up a closed and derelict line somewhere or another. :) Love this one. :)

Cheers,

:) Sal
 
Nice one, the HDR isnt overdone at all for a change :mrgreen:

That 'box' is a treadle, when the wheel flange hits the arms they energise a circuit
 
I think the "Hole" is an axle weigher. It weighs each axle as it passes over and adds them up to give the total weight. I could be wrong though.
 
Very interesting. The HDR is a sight better than many I'd care to mention - subtle is definitely the way to go I think.

At a (slightly educated) guess this may have been something to do with the nearby collieries or brickworks.
 
Thank you all for comments and for the hole, there is a brickwork next to it but not sure how long its been there for and tbh im not sure when the railway track closed or why considering theres a live track next to it! Thanks for help with what they were aha :mrgreen:
