This is my other prototypical route I'm working on - The Stainmore Railway.
I've done the section from Barnard Castle to Kirkby Stephen, which includes the highest summit of railways in England at 1370 feet, and the great iron viaducts at Deepdale and Belah (made by Bendorsey - thanks Ben). The line was steeply graded (1 in 70) for most of its journey accross England's North Pennines. The line was opened in 1861 and closed in 1962. This year is the 150th anniversary of line opening.

The route started in TRS06 but work is now continuing in TS2010.
