A bit before your time Robert.
It's Woodhead with the unique 1500v DC EM1 and EM2 electric locos.
Sadly now, all gone.......'

Hi Chris

Reminds me of my cycling days!! - I cycled many times from Bradford up the A6024 from Holmfirth and down the other side to Glossop on my way to Buxton etc etc.

I just loved seeing those EM1's pulling Wagons & Coaches particularly as they passed alongside the Torside Reservoir as I continued on my way on the B6105.

It was a lot easier when I purchased my Lambretta LD150 scooter!!

Kindest Regards

Mike

Nice to see my old and some of my very very old MSTS EM1`s still getting around

Mee old ones look very sad by today`s standards

my latest EM1`s have LOD`s ect .

Time passes us all by even in the MSTS virtual world !
