My Mum used to travel along here on the Blue Pullman! |
A tunnel shaped tunnel! No more of that Midland nonsense! |
The usual hazards. |
Ah! Spoke to soon. Back to the inclined stone walls toped with a brick arch again. |
These are nice tunnels. I would recommend the walk to anyone. I suspect the route is very achievable for people in wheelchairs as well. |

I think it is the law that all tunnels have junk in the portals. Wherever you go, it's there: hay bails, drainage pipes, sheep! You name it... |
Oh, and traffic cones of course. |
The ungated Chee Tor No.2 can be seen. The view is usually the other way, from inside No.2 looking back to No.1. Nice to do it this way. |
A customer. Quick, put your hard hat on. |
Over the viaduct to Chee Tor No.2. |
