From CG : That wall below the cattle creep was partly rebuilt again by "Polish" Pete about 4 or 5 years ago From Biggles : Reacted to "Something something ..." with 😂 From Biggles : I can easily believe 20,000T!! I’ve just dug out a 4m x 2m area for a polytunnel in clay soil and that was 3T!! From CG : 1994 for Sian as well From SD : How long did the construction of Gilberts Cutting take? Was the line severed throughout the construction? From DAC : If Captain Howey had built his extension to Ambleside it would have included tunnels From DAC : and perhaps spirals From R&GN : When the Preservation Society took over the R&GN Ry., Norman Sandley had about a foot scraped off the top of the grade out near the west end so that the little 4-4-0s could pull the hill. From TS : never heard of bogies being turned, rail from 1964cutting to the walls at dalegarth 1977 ish then to dalegarth siding in the mid 90's need to check dates From TS : sorry wi fi bad here but rail was moved on those dates ish
