how about kind of sinking the track in the road so cars could still use it?
Hate to be a nay sayer but whats the point of that especially with the North upgrade & Tram extension.That was done in Weymouth and its now no longer used, I suppose its still possible to do the same in Blackpool but you would have to build a short tunnel so that the line could continue up to the site of Central.
Not that line - but Whitby to Boulby (on the way to Brotton & Saltburn) certainly has.Whitby to Scarboro, part of it has gone into the sea.

Spalding to Boston Line, Now the A15
Agreed about Waterloo, although that is how it was done when there was a connection - probably fewer passengers milling around the concourse in those days. Mileages from Waterloo are still taken from the long closed junction.
My understanding was that the track was covered over and the covers were lifted when a train needed to pass. I don't think that it saw a lot of use.I'm curious now - was the concourse shorter and on just one side of this link, or was there a level crossing type arrangement, or...?
I assume it used the track-level bridge that now seems to hold the wheeliebins for the station?

I believe that the oringal rail bridge is the one in place now.
Stratford-upon-Avon to Honeybourne I believe part of the track alignment now contains a road.

Or the old line to Ballantrae?
