Disused railway, Harrington, West Cumbria
Traffic on the Harrington & Lowca Light Railway was mainly minerals but passengers were carried between 1913 and 1926. This is the site of the former Rosehill Archer Street station where southbound trains were faced with a cruel 285 yds at 1 in 17. In bad weather trains had to set back towards Church Road in order to have a run at the bank. It was the steepest gradient in Britain to have carried adhesion worked passenger trains.

To improve capacity at peak times - in particular for Sellafield workers - Northern use a loco hauled train hired from Direct Rail Services on several daily diagrams along the Cumbrian coast. One such service is seen rounding the curve on the approach to Harrington Station.

A winter afternoon at Harrington Harbour
The harbour today is mainly used for leisure, but it was once a very busy port. Coal and limestone were exported from Harrington, and an important shipbuilding industry developed. For some fascinating pictures of the harbour's industrial past, see : http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/photoarchive/index.html
