The Blackcountry Man

Arley Station and the Steam Train.....

We had a trip out to my old stomping ground from many years ago, Upper Arley and here is where the Santa Special stops at Christmas, a lovely little station which was shut during the Beaching Era of Cuts. The Seven Valley Railway took it back into a scheduled stop when they bought the line many years ago.
I love watching the trains from the stone bridge and smell the coal smoke and steam as the trains pass under the bridge, wonderful.

Maddison loves them too, as did her dad, I wonder if I may be passing my loves onto them?
