Scruton

Looking east from the level crossing by Scruton station in June 2021, along the presently non operational to passengers section of the Wensleydale Railway line running to Northallerton East Station and Castle Hill exchange sidings. Much of the line is not usable at present for passenger workings due to deterioration of track components over the last 18 months. A mile of flat bottom rail, sleepers and other items have been obtained from the closed Eggborough Power Station for a relaying needed approaching Redmire.
