08846 & 40126 (D326) at Abram 28 July 1978

Both of these locos were based at Springs Branch during their later years.

D326 was the locomotive involved in the "Great Train Robbery" in August 1963

Mark,
It looks like Abram North crossing,situated at the top of Bolton House Road Bickershaw .On the right you can see the single line token box. I was the Ganger on this track in 1987/88
