Old Gloucester
Above: The Gloucester Park Paddling Pool.
Just the place to cool down on a hot summers day.
No you’re not seeing things, that
is a locomotive crossing Parkend Rd
on the Sudbrook line.
This was a dangerous spot for
cyclist as they would often catch their
wheel in the track. The crossing
keeper kept a first-aid kit for just
that sort of emergency.
Below is another train only this time
heading in the opposite direction.
Old Gloucester. The photographic nostalgia site.
