Diggle Diaries: An attempt to film all daylight running freight and interesting workings from Diggle Junction. Situated on the picturesque Trans-Pennine, Manchester to Huddersfield and Leeds route, Diggle Jn lies at the top of a steep incline leading into Standedge Tunnel. Providing beautiful scenery, varied freight and trains working hard up the hill, there aren’t many better places for a bit of trainspotting.
This month includes:
– Loco cavalcade heads to the ELR diesel gala
– DCR grid on the Haverton tanks
– Class 60 Drax workings
– Britannia in Wales
– And much more…
Thanks for watching!
