Auckland Park/Eldon Lane update

After finding some more accurate maps showing detailed track layout, I've recently been taking a break from working on the Shildon area to revise the track layout and signalling in the Auckland Park/Eldon Lane area.

Auckland Park Colliery (which in reality closed in 1946, remaining open as a pumping station until 1961) is a central feature of this part of the route, which lies between Tunnel Branch Junction and South Church on the Bishop Auckland-Shildon line.
