The footpath crosses the almost disused Hawes branch railway line then the tracks of the east-coast main line. A favourite place for trainspotting in my youth of the early to mid 1960s where the London to Edinburgh trains were pulled by the streamlined A4 Steam locomotives (streaks) and the 3,300 bhp D90xx diesel electric (Deltics).
