History

6192633204_b6f6cdd07d_b.jpg


Last day of operation, 15-08-81

The Northampton to Market Harborough line opened in 1859 and had tunnels at Great Oxendon and nearby Kelmarsh. The original tunnel was single-track (422M), and when the line was doubled a second single-track tunnel was built. The second tunnel had an airshaft, and is now a cycle path all the way to Northampton. The line closed in 1981.

The underground dweller strikes again. Liking the detail in your shots mate. That one of the ceiling, and the other with the person in it, are awesome.
