Quayside Railways

Continuing the walk into Cattedown

The next set of photos from my walk into Cattedown a couple of weeks ago. It is nice to see these signs being placed along the route letting people know little snippets of transport history. At least the track is still in place here. There is still the occasional train serving the scrap yard which is just around the corner on the left Sadly I have to wonder just how long the trains will still serve the scrap yard. If you subscribe to this blog in a reader you may have seen a new post last night about a 50p fare offer for Plymouth. It was in fact an old story from last year which mysteriously arrived in my reader again this year so I thought it was new news! It was only when I added it to my calendar I realised that the days didn't match up!
