The reverse curve on the approach to Middle Engine Lane Station was put in as part of the heritage railway, linking the former branch to the Rising Sun colliery onto the trackbed of the Backworth line. Where our museum now stands.
Below are some photos of visiting NELPG NER P Class, or LNER J27, and our very own Kitson & Co A5 tackling the curves in slightly greener surroundings before the Silverlink retail park developed.
