Wigan Album

I fired on both those lines at one time or another, the track crossing was eventually the line into the wagon works, and thompsons scrap yard, originally it went to the top place steel works, and the GC line always flooded, but not to the extent that you see on the photo, the bridge where the line is crossing was the worst, at times even flooded in summer, it seemed to hold water at all times, even tody it is still there and flooded and home to some of the biggest rudd I have ever seen.

Another line also went over these two tracks, carried by a large girder bridge, the Pemberton loop.

Agreed Colin, but that was one line I never worked on, although when I was cutting locos up, I worked by the side of it.
