Great Central Railway Mountsorrel Leicestershire 25th October 2015

Great Central Railway Mountsorrel Leicestershire 25th October 2015
Who says the modern Great Central Railway is an almost level 8 mile railway? This weekend passenger trains ran on the new Mountsorrel branch to Swithland Sidings for the first time.

This is the view from the platform end at Mountsorrel station and it shows the climb southwards which starts at 1 in 40 easing to 1 in 70!

Thanks. It was a beautiful day on Sunday which brought out the autumnal colours very well.
