    Wonderful to be looking at a current day comparison that's still an operational railway and not a pile of undergrowth ... or new Housing Development with a Beeching Way!

    Are you covering West Cornwall? Thinking particularly of Gwinear Road and Helston, where I used to live, and the bits of the old line that have been resored and reopened as a heritage project

    Terras Crossing is one of the best crossings in the world. Although Cars have to stop, the crossing is by a blind Road junction, and there are no other warning mechanisms, such as lights, bell, barriers or sirens to warn cars of the oncoming train.
