A few hundred yards down the track from Summerseat station. First time I've been there but looks a great place, nice sharp S bend and the locos working a head of steam up too.

Steam trains run nearly everyday, but more often at weekend Timetables/ (http://east-lancs-rly.co.uk/timetables/)

Funny enough there was a chap there with an orange vest, but as a public footpath cross the line here, there is no worries. :lol:

Is that at the top of the steps where you cross the track on the Bury Countryside Walk? If so, we cross there all the time on out Mountain Bikes.

Good shot!
