SHOTTLE & IDRIDGEHAY

We take a look around the passing loop station on the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway line in Derbyshire and see some of the work that is ongoing to put in place worked points and signals using the recently re-erected Oddingley Signalbox , made redundant by the National network in 2016 and resited upon its new base here at Shottle in 2020
Whilst on the line we also take a look at one of the two crossings on the line, at Idridgehay station.

Nice to see the railway progressing.
Sad to say we will not be coming back to UK for a third visit, so will have to follow progress on UA-cam.
Are you still running a three-car DMU?
I have a surplus model which I could send if you have a museum with a model railway.
Now semi-retired in PICTON, South Island NZ.

The railway has DMus and diesels plus steam, I shall certainly be keeping an eye on the signalling projects and keep you updated 🫡👍
