The line from Northallerton to Redmire survived well into the diesel era mainly due to the limestone quarry at Redmire but several of the intermediate stations retained goods facilities beyond the 1970's and there was also an Oil depot at Bedale. This collection features Bedale and Leyburn in 1979 plus the odd view of Wensley and Redmire (62005 in 1967).
I have now acquired a collection of slides featuring a special DMU trip along the line in May 1976, the views have been re-arranged as if one was travelling westwards along the line.
The Wensleydale Railway have re-opened part of the route; visit their site at http://www.wensleydalerailwayassociation.com/ for information andfurther views of the line.
