Description:We are looking towards Rudyard's railway bridge on a sunny day in 1957.
A small narrow guage railway now runs for a mile or so along a strech of the former track bed in the summer months.
It is an ideal way for visitors to experience the fantastic scenery, whilst enjoying the sound and smell of a steam engine.
Diesel engines are also used.
Note that the long platforms reach over the road bridge, recalling the memory that trains with eight or more coaches once stopped here.
