In this scene we see Jimmy Muir walking all night and then down onto the train tracks after losing his brother.
He makes a life or death decision with the toss of a coin

This next one is a pure guess so I either need your confirmation or I need someone to tell me the exact location!

I saw the gas tower and thought it might be around Parkwood/Neepsend and came to this stretch of road on Parkwood Road that seems to match but I'm not 100%

The brickwork matches, the gate matches, the slope matches so i'm 99% confident on this one

Can anyone confirm or put me right?

Sorry not explained it very well... I'm only looking at the photos on my phone, there's a light in the distance above the wall. If I remember they used to have the Uni Arts Tower lit at night. It's about the right height and angle.

Ignore background lighs from buildings on the horizon, it is dark so hard to tell what buildings they are.
Look at: Where pipes cross above the road and butress seen on L/H wall.

Yes, you've definitely got the right location. 😁

Life would have been so much easier years ago if we'd had Google Earth.!!! But we got out more to "have a look" at a location where a photo was. You do a great job.
