Freight train starting off towards Guide Bridge, 1968
A photograph of a long-gone railway connection from a long-gone road - Junction View. In the last year of steam, 45330 and train start away from a signal stop and pass under Audenshaw Road. The bridge also has now gone, a new bridge and junction with a new road is roughly where the camera is. The 1500 V DC electrification is also a thing of the past.
