Disused railway route near to High Shincliffe

The route of the Leamside Line is seen here heading north. There was a single track in place as recently as November 2012: see - http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3242562, but when this image was recorded (June 2014) that had been lifted. Recently (April 2014) the Sunderland Echo was reporting on plans to reinstate at least part of the Leamside Line though the stretch seen in this image would probably not be affected.
