Threlkeld Quarry - Narrow Gauge Railway Gala 2013

Threlkeld Quarry is located just to the east of Keswick in Cumbria. The quarry is home to a mining/quarry museum and features a collection of around 80 excavators, as well as heavy quarry plant and a working narrow gauge railway.

Set in stunning scenery, the narrow gauge railway climbs steeply from the original quarry engine shed to a working face high above, with some severe gradients and sharp curves along the way.

Paul Jarman, our Keeper of Transport, was down for their 2013 Gala where he shot the scenes which you see here. Visit Beamish Transport Online for a full writeup and a fantastic selection of pictures:
