Viewed from one of the Metrolink trams that now ply the route between Manchester and Altrincham, the catenary support frame here extends over a disused trackbed from when it was the Manchester South Junction and Altrincham Railway with a 4-track section. The western pair of tracks was removed in the 1960s. The building in the background is the British Gas offices Image
