    66025 passes the site of Peak Forest Junction signalbox and the milepost is Zero for the route to St Pancras via Derby. I should have actually stood a bit further round where the line would pass below me and I would have had a more spectacular backdrop.
    THIS is the dramatic backdrop I would've had if only I had looked at it better. The former junction is more visible and the ZERO milepost is still to be seen....darn it!
    Walking back to the car and I pass over the Monsal Trail, a public footpath built on the old railway line. This is the view looking east through Chee Dale. WOW!
