It's looking great Paul, everyone has worked so hard & done a great job. The brickwork looks stunning! The platforms really have transformed the place & the lamps will look amazing. Thanks for the update Paul. 😊👍

Bloody immaculate , that place. I dont even think there is any dirty ballast ! Well done to all.

[@WobblyRunner]

👍

What a terrific job they've all done, place looks brilliant! Just need to pop a small stage in front of the tunnel entrance and you've got a perfect outdoor performance space. 👍

[@WobblyRunner]

Haha yes. That's not a bad idea 😄

Unusual video about an unusual subject! This is a rare example of a former disused station being restored without any possibility of the trains returning! Thanks for uploading.

It looks fabulous! The engineering brick looks almost as new. Seeing what it looked like just 3yrs ago, almost forgotten, reclaimed by nature. Kudos to everyone involved. I like the plans to show a bit of the alignment superimposed on a modern photo too. Hopefully more local history groups will see this and do something similar with an unloved bit of infrastructure.

[@WobblyRunner]

Nicely put. It's a great example of what a community can achieve with a bit of graft 🙂

[@derbyshireguru5680]

It is looking really good; a credit to all involved.

[@chrischapman7514]

Thanks

Thanks ever so much Andrew 👍

[@aliendon73]

Brilliant documentation of footage from you, excellent work from you and the team doing such a wonderful job of the restoration. Just an idea for the team. On the other track (on the gate) they craft the rear of a passenger coach or a freight wagon, going into the tunnel for aesthetic purpose. I think that would improve on the feel for what it looked like.

[@WobblyRunner]

Thanks very much. 👍 I will pass the suggestion on to the guys.

[@melynagwyrdd]

Well done on a fantastic restoration.
