Even after over 50 years the railway still makes it's mark. The iron girders and wooden fixings for rails can be seen on this bridge over a stream feeding the River Ouse.

A photographic tour of the Bluebell Railway - Former line from Hamsey and Culver Junction to Sheffield Park
Trains @ fotopic.net
As it leaves Hamsey the old trackbed runs directly north east and for the majority of the time forms a farm track, although in some places the line is now part of fields. This view looks south east from Culver Farm towards an area where the trackbed is a little less well defined. (This area is private property, photographed with permission). Previous | NextThis view, which looks south west towards Hamsey, is typical of the state of the majority of the trackbed in this area. The railway was raised up slightly on an embankment to gain some protection from flooding by the adjacent river.
