England’s highest main-line railway station hangs on to life by a thread: deserted andunmanned since it was officially closed in 1970 Dent, situated high in the hills of Yorkshirewakes up on six summer weekends each year, when a special charter train unloads walkers,sightseers and people who simple want to catch a train from the highest station to its platforms.

But even this limited existence may soon be brought to an end Dent station is situated onthe Settel to Carlisle railway line, said to be the most scenic in the country But no amount ofscenic beauty can save the line from the British Rail’s cash problems

This year, for he sake of economy, the express trains which used to pass through Dentstation have been put to another route

It is now an open secret that British Rail sees no future for this railway line Most of itstrains disappeared some time ago Bridge, built on a grand scale a century ago, is failing down It

is not alone Half a dozen railway routes in the North of England are facing a similar threat Theproblem is a born out system and an almost total lack of cash to repair it Bridges and tunnels areshowing their ages The wooden supports for she tracks are rotting and engines and coaches aregetting old

On major lines between large cities, the problem is not too bad These lines still make aprofit and cash can be found to maintain them But on the country branch line, the story is

different As track wears out, it is not replaced Instead, speed limits are introduced, making thejourney longer than necessary and discouraging customers

If a bridge is dangerous, there is often only one thing for British Rail to do: go out and findmoney from another source This is exactly what it did a few months ago when a bridge at

Building station was threatening to fall down Repairs were estimated at 200,000 pounds Just forone bridge and British Rail was delighted, and rather surprised when to local councils offered halfthat between them

21 Since 1970 Dent station has been used

A only for a part of each year

B only in some years

C only by local people

D only by hill walkers

22 Of all the railway routes in Britain the on which passes through Dent

A in the most historic

B passes through the most attractive countryside

C is the mist expensive number of tourists

D carries the greatest number of tourists

23 The most urgent problem for many country railway lines is that

25 In order to improve the financial situation of the country railway lines, British Rail should

A introduce speed limits

B reduce scale of maintenance

C increase fares

D appeal to local councils
