How did the explorers meet the railway access challenge. Meet at Glenbrook station. Roads to Zig zag railway track. Descend to GWH, mind your head. Explore to the closed railway tunnel due to open in the near future for pedestrians and cyclists. Roads through Lapstone. Who is Arthur Hand? On to Darks Common. Tracks to the old tramway. Amazing look down to the present railway BUT an abrupt edge - with care. Finish at Glenbrook station. EDGES, roads
