Back in March, I was travelling from Todmorden into Manchester Victoria and just happened to notice that the connection from the south curve at Castleton had been severed a few metres short of the junction. The characteristic "thump" and sway when passing over the switch in the Up direction, just before the M62 bridge, had gone too, so I assumed the junction had been entirely removed and plain-lined.
Yesterday, I noticed it appeared to have been reconnected. I assume this is a like-for-like replacement, only useable in the Up direction? I'd be very grateful for confirmation of this and some idea of how long the situation I described in the first paragraph lasted, if anyone knows?
Thanks in advance.
