With the overgrown sand quarry in the foreground, D1501 passes Heap Bridge on 7 March 2010 with the 2J75 12:05 Heywood to Rawtenstall service, during the East Lancashire Railway's Diesel Gala. Not only was this a completely sunny day, but there was hardly a breath of wind. Virtually all of the wind turbines that can just be seen on the horizon were stopped.
