Lines at Hyde North

Photograph © Peter Whatley and used with permission.

The theme for City Daily Photo Blogs this month is Lines.

The picture was take on 24th March 1989 from a train approaching Hyde North station. The track on the left is the electrified line from Manchester Piccadilly towards Glossop which at one time went to Sheffield via the Woodhead Tunnel.

The line South through Hyde North goes to Marple and is not electrified.

On my photograph of Hyde North station, July 2006, taken from the top of the platform crossover bridge, you can see this viewed from the opposite direction.

Peter's picture (in colour) can be viewed on the Geograph site.
