A30 east of Redruth
One of the few sections where the road and the railway run parallel. It must encourage a few car drivers to race the train but we were comfortably overhauling this silver car. Opposite, behind the eastbound lay by, is a triangle of land that formerly contained the junction of the railway to St Agnes. The connection to the main line has been obliterated by the dual carriageway.
This photo was taken from the 1158 Penzance to London Paddington train, having left Redruth at 1231.

Winding Gear at Skinner's Bottom
This looks to be winding gear for a small mineshaft. It also looks to be derelict. My thanks go to Malcolm Kewn for providing the following explanation:
"This is the headgear of Wheal Concord, which was reopened in 1980, and visited by the Duke of Cornwall in 1981, who went underground during his visit. Tin output failed to reach expectations, however, and the tin market crash of 1985 proved to be the killer blow for this venture. The mine closed in 1986, hence the dereliction evident in the photo."
