A relatively short video following the recently introduced Chester to Liverpool Lime Street via the Halton Curve with our good friends at Transport for Wales. We head in a North Easterly direction before swinging round to the North West via the remodelled Halton Curve. It was only used by freight and the occasional special train until it was resignalled and upgraded for regular passenger use. Its a lovely day and the footage is clear with a high definition stereo soundtrack. There is some simply astonishing feats of engineering along the way and we take a little look at some classic Halewood produced Fords. A snippet in a Class 68 and at the end, the fascinating journey of a signal box to a new home.

Addendum

JLR cars operate from more production sites than Halewood.

At Frodsham Junction, the label should read “To Warrington and the WCML” and not the ECML.
