Cattedown gets a little less interesting

The Cattedown Level Crossing

Continuing the walk through Cattedown we reach the old level crossing. At first glance all seems well... Sadly it all goes downhill fast when we stand on the crossing and look right towards the oil terminal Compare this with the view from a few years ago The view looking left back towards Laira is just a depressing With a comment left earlier that even the scrap yard has been looking to relocate to larger premises I guess its only a matter of time before the whole branch line gets lifted and another bit of transport history disappears for ever.
