'Oldies but Goldies', a few from the Archive at four locations - Thoresby Colliery Junction

* Part Two, a 1min 47sec, 25Mby MP4 video, showing scenes at Thoresby Colliery Junction, taken on 2nd September, 2015.

Due to the continued self-isolation of much of the population and the decree that not more than two folk should gather together along with other restrictions brough about by the now rampaging Covid-19, Coronavirus, thought it may be appropriate to poke around the archive(s) and see what was worth another look. The most economical way of getting the 116 selected pictures from the 4 well-separated geographical locations, was to put them in a video, a single one would have been large and long, so the material was separated into 4 sections, corresponding to the places where the pictures were taken - Barnetby area in two sections, Thoresby Colliery area, Chesterfield Station area and the Scunthorpe Steelworks. Lineside photography, for the present is no longer an option, though there may well be 'exercise times' which possibly could accommodate this!

A video put out on Flickr at that time, can be seen here-
