The SOLR is the same.

The goods shed is covered!

You can just about see the spiral bridge

Harlow Wood halt is blanketed

West Dunkley station is unpassable

The tunnel cutting

The Village is sheltered by a large conifer so the covering isnt as thick

But Berry Hill box is submerged

Not this year. We had 2 "rescues", but fortunately both made their target weight early enough for hibernation

Snow didn't stop trains running today. Despite Snowdon (still with Damian nameplates attached) being pretty much useless for Snowploughing, the Y&PLR had no other choice, so sent it out for a clearance run....

Just to check did it have to be pictures of this years snow ?

Keith S · Post by **Keith S** » Tue Jan 22, 2013 1:12 am

I didn't know there were rules. My picture above was from last year in March. I just thought you'd be impressed by how much snow was in it.

Sorry about that.
