Pets on their best behaviour at service
YORKSHIRE terriers and long haired German Shepherds were among the 14 breeds who attended a “Pets Praise” service. The special event in the grounds
of Clitheroe Castle had been organ ised by the Clitheroe branch of the. Salvation Army. All the pets were well behaved
throughout the short service during which each was blessed and pre sented with a commemorative cer tificate: “It was surprising how quiet and responsive the dogs were during this time,” said Capt. Eliza beth Smith. She added: “We had a great
time. The weather was good to us, and there was a happy friendly atmosphere.”" 'She led the blessing service
together with Corps secretary Gly- nis Duller and Envoy Brenda Wise. Cynthia Stevenson and Teresa Waterhouse gave out the orders of service, along with pens, leaflets and poopscoop bags when required.
- Said Capt. Smith: “Mr. Alan Blezzard responded to our appeal for help and provided us with amplification and recorded music. We were very grateful for this as it made all the difference. We are also very grateful to the Ribble Valley Borough Council who gave us per mission to hold the pet blessing on the park. It was the ideal venue.
Clitheroe 422324 (Editorial), 01282 478111 (Advertising), 01282 422331 (Classified) Line finished on schedule A MILLION pound per mile railway
renewal project has been successfully completed in just four weeks.
_
. The scheme to renew the 10.5 miles of track between Clitheroe and Hellified was completed on time and on budget at £10.4m., with the track reopened
this week. During the closure, the line was a
hive of activity with Network Rail staff and contractors clocking up 25,000 man hours of work. Some 126 engineering trains removed 57,000 tonnes of spoil before bringing in 50,000 tonnes of new ballast and 29,000 new concrete sleep ers. The sleepers are used to hold 38,000 yards of new rail in place. At the same time, the track drainage
system was renewed to help prevent flooding in the event of heavy rain in the future, and work was carried out to stabilise embankments and repair
bridges over the line. - The work was done to remove a num
ber of speed restrictions that were ing an effect on train performance,wS to bring the line up to modern stan dards with continuously welded rails replacing old jointed track. The line is mainly used for freight
trains, but has strategic importance because i t links the famous Settle- Carlisle route to the west coast via |
Blackburn and the East Lancs Line. As such, it is used to divert trains when
work is taking place on the northern end of the west coast main line. There will also be an increase in the
number of trains using it when a new timetable comes into operation in December. The link also allows Dalesrail sum
mer passenger services and numerous charter and steam excursions to gain access to the Settle-Carlisle, arguably the most scenic line in Britain.
