Ness Point, Lowestoft.  The wind turbine is named 'Gulliver".
Hyperlaps with the MA2

Very cool hyperlapse.  

Nice. Shame the Gulliver doesn't turn.

Thank you, he does, it’s rare that he doesn’t, but I’ll take the still air with blue skies and sunshine this weekend!

Haha, yes, you must, your country was a pioneer of wind turbines before the rest of Europe I think…But can you find one adjacent to an active railway??

Must be one there, but it is hard to see with the low resolution
If you can, please catch it in normal time (possibly with a shunting locomotive )

Not one in my photo, sadly, no train tracks near there...

There used to be for sure.
Some of it can still be seen today.
But not connected anymore.

That's interesting. The main passenger station still works and is at https://goo.gl/maps/zHQRe8WrvmW6zWoE8 But much of the area around Ness Point is undeveloped or low key light industrial units...So could be.

Yeah, they used to have (at least) one siding going to the harbor.
It must have been quite a crossing from the station to the harbor, looking at the traffic.
On Google Earth I can look back to 2009, but it was gone already back then.

There is quite a bit of information about it.
This is one image I found.

You can actually move to the right and watch more.

Well well well, that's a resource, thank you!
I see Maldon is mentioned too, that's DA Flys turf...
Beaching decimated our railways, and subsequent governments have just screwed up and taken the £££'s ..

I love to dig around and find old railway shots
Yeah indeed, I noticed that too.
Sadly it is how a lot of railways went down.
