This in the days when you could walk through the garden of the house at the bottom of the viaduct after putting money into the 'entrance collection tin' that used to hang on the gate, happy days indeed.

 by 6A Hunty.. V2 4771 Green Arrow has just emerged from Rise Hill Tunnel and works towards Dent Station nearly 28 years ago. In those days southbound train's stopped for water at both Appleby and Garsdale so having photted the train at earlier at Barron Wood and Ais Gill we were able to dash over the Coal Road for a third and final shot.
