Walking along the canal bank in Uppermill.

Ah Peter, delighted that you managed to explore my very local villages and canal paths. Such a great pity that we could not meet up but at least you managed to have a nice walk and as proven here at least one great photo. I have never managed to get a train going over this viaduct from here. I have seen many photos of it from a much higher viewpoint, even with steam trains, but again, I could not even find where they had done that. A most fortunate moment with that red clad girl. Anyway, glad it went well and the weather was kind. Cheers too for the friendly dropping of my name here :)

Keep safe and happy travels. Herb

I am sure he would have been just as helpful to me had the roles been reversed Rosa. I wanted to travel along too but I was still feeling the effects of an earlier back-twist and so was laid up.

Cheers, Herb

Hi Herb ,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit, and of course the initial idea.
I walked from Grandpa Greene's (which was doing a roaring trade), under the viaduct, and along a bit further before going back.

It is possible that the 'higher view point' was from a drone or simply a long pole, rather than standing there. I have seen both done before.

I suppose if you wait long enough a steam train might come, but there are very few excursions running now due to the virus.

Best Wishes,
Peter
