Manna,

I hope that you don't mind but your link does not work, the one below should -

This is a fine collection of maps, photos and newspaper articles about a little known LNER branch deep in LMS territory.

Cracking find Manna, my local line. I didn't realise so many photos existed. This line featured a very early attempt to preserve a railway, and would have predated the Bluebelle line by a good few years had they succeded. If they had I would expect more ex GNR locos would have been preserved. Scary to think they could have been bought for next to nothing in the late 50s.
