Yesterday afternoon, 13th February, I was working on top of the water tower (security cameras) when I sensed something of a traffic situation on the normally peaceful Station Road. Two of the biggest of big articulated lorries were to-ing and fro-ing as if to enter the narrow station drive.
I looked on in fascination and doubt. Unlike trains, whose highly paid drivers are presently on strike for more money, these HGV drivers actually have steering wheels and reverse gears to contend with.
Here is one of them REVERSING up the station drive en route to pick up and convey a huge Network Rail machine which had been used at Settle for track work.
Total admiration and respect.
