Bridge and a railway
In the summer of 2007 the railway bridge at the top of Hillcrest marking the beginning of Dawdon proper was rebuilt. Road closures for several weeks caused remarkable havoc with the number 60 bus drivers’ local geography, whilst a series of different routes in and out of Parkside were explored. Not so much fun if you were trying to get home in a hurry.
So this means that the trains of the sparkling new Grand Central Railway can hurtle past our rooftops without danger of ploughing through the local allotments. But will we get our longed-for station back?
