Скачать или смотреть Rest Day Worked: Linby Colliery Sidings in the 1980s (Volume 1) (Re-Uploaded)

The first of 2 parts showing a collection of assorted photographs from the very early to mid 1980s at Linby Colliery Sidings signalbox on the Midland "Leen Valley" line. Due to the historic nature, every attempt has been made to re-use 40+ year old negatives, restoring and enhancing wherever possible.

Not every image is perfect but has historically interesting content. Numerous features of the area have now vanished, including Linby FC "Gatehouse" football ground, Linby Colliery and Hucknall Colliery.

All photographs are copyright to M Shaw (1979 to 2020)

All of the colleagues featured in the content consented to be photographed at the time the shots were taken

Watermarking:
Apologies for the watermarking. It is with huge regret that I've had to re-upload my content with a watermark across the images. This has been necessary due to a several instances this year (2024) of 3rd party claims of ownership over my own content (image theft). This includes someone apparently lifting images or content and distributing via DVD without attribution. Previously I've been happy to share and share for everyone's benefit without watermark, but when other people claim ownership over my content then action is necessary. All previous videos are retained but set to private access only to facilitate copyright claims should they appear elsewhere.
