[DerekC]

after a quick reversal at Pilmoor* .... Husthwaite Gate

*at some point between 1854 and 1892 (based on map evidence) the NER started construction of a direct link between the PB&K and T&M lines at Pilmoor, crossing over the ECML on a bridge just north of Sessay Wood Junction. The earthworks are still visible. However I seem to recall being challenged by Paul when I tried to use it on a previous trip, on the basis that it was never completed. It would be interesting to find out because a number of sources assume that it was. I can't find hard evidence either way.
