The rail replacement works at Hillsborough Corner are continuing with old track removed in places with the new track ready for fitting. Despite the engineering works all traffic is still able to travel Langsett Road to Holme Road in both directions but all other traffic movements at Hillsborough Corner are currently stopped. This phase of works is due to be completed by the end of April.

The trench where the old rails have now been removed from and new rails wait to be inserted is scrubbed clean with this intriguing machine. (All Photos: Stuart Cooke, 5th April 2014)
