Railway at Bradnop, Staffordshire
This is looking back (south-east) at the bridge at Bradnop. The train is being pulled on the return to Froghall by a diesel unit which helped the small green Polish steam locomotive haul it up the gradient to Ipstones by pushing from the rear.
The line is currently being used as far as the former Ipstones Station by the Churnet Valley Railway Company, but is currently owned by the Moorland and City Railways Company, with plans to reopen lines as far as Leek and Stoke, and agreements likely that CVR will have access to all of its tracks.
