			Image:Thornbury2.jpg\|The view in the opposite direction. The trackbed has had a housing estate built on it.
			Image:Thornbury3.jpg\|Closer to the Thornbury station area and the route is cut across by Link Road.
			Image:Thornbury4.jpg\|Looking towards the centre of Thornbury from Link Road. The route of the railway passes behind houses and rises on an embankment.
			Image:Thornbury5.jpg\|A railway bridge survives right in the middle of the housing estate, effectively chopping it in half.
			Image:Thornbury6.jpg\|The bridge viewed from the other side.
			Image:Thornbury7.jpg\|Standing on the bridge and looking in the direction of [[Yate]].

			Image:Thornbury9.jpg\|The route then runs behind industrial estates along Midland Way. This is the view in the direction of Yate.
			Image:Thornbury10.jpg\|And the view in the direction of Thornbury.
			Image:Thornbury11.jpg\|As the route approaches the site of Thornbury station it is absorbed by Midland Way.
			Image:Thornbury12.jpg\|Turning around and looking at the approach to Thornbury station.
			Image:Thornbury13.jpg\|Just to the east of the last photo is an underpass. This looks like the bottom half of the masonry is original and the top half new. Looking on old maps suggests a footpath crossed the railway at this point. Don't quote me on that though!
