If anyone's interested the 2016 version of Ian Allan's Gradients of British Mainline Railways is currently available at a cover price of £15.00. Got mine from Postscript Books at £9.99

 

Does anybody have the gradient profile for the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch?

 

Must admit I would have thought most of it was dead flat.

 

Indeed. But the one or two gradients (even if it is a 1:999999 for 2 metres) would interest me as I'm looking to do some modelling at some point.

 

Just noticed the Leighton Buzzard NGR gradient profile on their website (doesn’t yet include the extension due to open in April).

Thanks - post on page 1 updated. Some steep gradients there!

Doesn't include the new diversion either by the looks of it?

 

I won’t post the photo as it’s not mine, but in the comment section of this facebook post, Mark Clifford shows the extension gradients. Interesting!

Hi all,

Does anyone have an up to date version of the Foxfield's gradient profile? The links in the thread all direct to an old webpage and I can't find another version online.

Cheers,

PLP

 

Not a great image but a Google search provided this.

Brilliant, thanks for that! I hadn't clicked on any of the Facebook links as I don't have it myself but I don't need to be logged in to see it so that's great.

Cheers,

Nene Valley gradient profile ...

I was given this shot several years ago, I hope that this is of use.

 

Not sure if this has already been posted, but here is the gradient sections for the Mountsorrel Branch Line of the Great Central Railway:

 

The SVR link in the first post has changed. The new link is

Request to Tom @Jamessquared to update the first post.

Cheers
Robin

 

I've updated it (for the time being) to this page: https://www.svrwiki.com/Gradient_profile_and_mileages

When I click on the link you gave, I get an error - I'll check back to see if it is a temporary error or permanent.

OK Thanks.

The Bluebell link in your first post now doesn’t seem to work correctly - just gives the home page of the Bluebell for-the-pubic website, not a direct link to the gradient profile.
(Was actually looking for the profile for the Ardingly line - not sure if that would be on there, either?).

Apologies if the answer is somewhere in the above nine pages - haven’t had time to read all that today!

 

https://www.bluebell-railway.co.uk/bluebell/map_grad.html

Does not include Ardingly.

 

I’ve updated the first page.

As @Paul42 says, doesn’t include the Ardingly branch.
