Wear Valley Junction

As we are on the Bishop Auckland & Weardale Railway, after the closed station of Beechburn and before the open station of Bishop Auckland, we would pass through the closed station of Etherley.

After Bishop Auckland, we will then access the Clarence Railway, which is the final line on this journey.

Hoping that the west-to-north curve avoiding Ellesmere, given by a couple of sources, did actually exist: Elson Halt
